Magnetic Circular Dichroism Spectroscopy of Metalloporphyrins
Many enzymes contain metalloporphyrins as prosthetic groups, which catalyse a vide variety of biologically important reactions. Hence, these species have been studied by a large number of spectroscopic techniques including Magnetic Circular Dichroism Spectroscopy (MCD). This method is especially useful to investigate the electronic structures and spectra of paramagnetic complexes [1]. However, ...
متن کاملAnalyses of circular dichroism spectra of membrane proteins.
Circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy is a valuable technique for the determination of protein secondary structures. Many linear and nonlinear algorithms have been developed for the empirical analysis of CD data, using reference databases derived from proteins of known structures. To date, the reference databases used by the various algorithms have all been derived from the spectra of soluble pr...
متن کاملSynchrotron radiation circular dichroism spectroscopy of proteins and applications in structural and functional genomics.
The technique of Synchrotron Radiation Circular Dichroism (SRCD) spectroscopy and its advantages over conventional circular dichroism spectroscopy are described in this tutorial review, as well as recent applications of the technique in structural and functional genomics. Circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy is a well-established method in biological chemistry and structural biology, but its ut...
متن کاملCluster characterization in iron-sulfur proteins by magnetic circular dichroism.
We report magnetic circular dichroism (MCD) spectra of 4-Fe iron-sulfur clusters in the iron-sulfur proteins Chromatium high-potential iron protein (HIPIP), Bacillus stearothermophilus ferredoxin and Clostridium pasteurianum ferredoxin. The MCD is found to vary significantly with cluster oxidation state but is relatively insensitive to the nature of the protein. The spectra obtained are compar...
متن کاملSynchrotron radiation circular dichroism spectroscopy of proteins: secondary structure, fold recognition and structural genomics.
Recent developments in instrumentation and bioinformatics show that the technique of synchrotron radiation circular dichroism spectroscopy can provide novel information on protein secondary structures and folding motifs, and has the potential to play an important role in structural genomics studies, both as a means of target selection and as a high-throughput, low-sample-requiring screening met...
