Glossoscolex paulistus hemoglobin (HbGp) is characterized by a molecular mass of 3,600 kDa, a high oligomeric stability, resistance to oxidation and a high affinity to oxygen. The quaternary structure of this macromolecule consists of 144 globin chains, and 36 additional chains lacking the heme group, named linkers, organized in a double-layered hexagonal structure. In this study, the oxy-HbGp stability, as well as, the oligomeric dissociation and unfolding processes were studied, using two types of denaturants,the surfactant Dodecyl-trimethylammonium bromide (DTAB), and chaotropic agents guanidine hydrochloride (GuHCl) and urea. Moreover, this study was developed based on 8-anilino-1naphtalene-sulfonic acid (ANS) and fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC) fluorescence probes, using the techniques of optical absorption, static fluorescence, dynamic light scattering (DLS) and time resolved fluorescence. The results of static fluorescence show that dodecyltrimethylammonium bromide (DTAB) induces an increase in ANS fluorescence emission intensity, with maximum emission wavelength blue-shifted from 517 to 493 nm. Two transitions are noticed, at 2.50 and 9.50 mmol/L of DTAB, assigned to ANS interaction with pre-micellar aggregates and micelles, respectively. In oxy-HbGp, ANS binds to protein sites less exposed to solvent, as compared to DTAB micelles, characterized by emission at 467-472 nm. At pH 7.0, the addition of DTAB to the oxy-HbGp-ANS system induced the protein aggregation, oligomeric dissociation and unfolding of oxy-HbGp. At pH 5.0, no formation of aggregates was observed. Moreover, DTAB-induced unfolding process displays two transitions, one due to oligomeric dissociation and the second one, probably, due to the denaturation of dissociated subunits. On the other hand, guanidine hydrochloride (GuHCl) and urea, at concentrations above 1.5 and 4.0 mol/L, respectively, induce the full HbGp denaturation, with reduction of ANS-bound oxy-HbGp hydrophobic patches on the surface
