Characterization of parallel and antiparallel G-tetraplex structures by vibrational spectroscopy.
A series of G-rich oligonucleotides able to form tetraplexes has been studied by FTIR spectroscopy. Characteristic markers of the formation of guanine tetrads are given. Moreover, we propose a new marker discriminating between parallel and antiparallel tetraplexes: the position of the C6O6 guanine carbonyl stretching vibration. In intermolecular parallel tetrameric structures formed by four sep...
متن کاملGuanine tetraplex topology of human telomere DNA is governed by the number of (TTAGGG) repeats
Secondary structures of the G-rich strand of human telomere DNA fragments G3(TTAG3)n, n = 1-16, have been studied by means of circular dichroism spectroscopy and PAGE, in solutions of physiological potassium cation concentrations. It has been found that folding of these fragments into tetraplexes as well as tetraplex thermostabilities and enthalpy values depend on the number of TTAG3 repeats. T...
متن کاملConformational polymorphism in G-tetraplex structures: strand reversal by base flipover or sugar flipover.
Guanine rich sequences adopt a variety of four stranded structures, which differ in strand orientation and conformation about the glycosidic bond even though they are all stabilised by Hoogsteen hydrogen bonded guanine tetrads. Detailed model building and molecular mechanics calculations have been carried out to investigate various possible conformations of guanines along a strand and different...
متن کاملCuII Hydroxy Salts: Characterization of Layered Compounds by Vibrational Spectroscopy
Hidroxo-sais lamelares de composição Cu 2 (OH) 3 X (X = NO 3 , CH 3 COO e ClO 4 ) foram sintetizados através da coprecipitação (sais básicos de nitrato e acetato) e da troca iônica (sal básico de perclorato). Os sólidos cristalinos foram caracterizados por difratometria de raios X, análise termogravimétrica e espectroscopia vibracional. Bandas fracas em 336 e 345 cm (espectro Raman) dos sais de...
متن کاملVibrational and photoionization spectroscopy of biomolecules: aliphatic amino acid structures.
The aliphatic amino acids glycine, valine, leucine, and isoleucine are thermally placed into the gas phase and expanded into a vacuum system for access by time of flight mass spectroscopy and infrared (IR) spectroscopy in the energy range of 2500-4000 cm(-1) (CH, NH, OH, and stretching vibrations). The isolated neutral amino acids are ionized by a single photon of 10.5 eV energy (118 nm), which...
