Measurement of cytosolic calcium using 19F NMR.
Fluorine-19 nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) studies of cells and perfused organs loaded with fluorinated ion chelators represent a new approach to determining cytosolic free calcium levels in situ. The molecular basis for this approach and the relative advantages and disadvantages of the NMR technique are discussed in this paper. Results obtained on perfused normoxic and ischemic rat hearts ar...
متن کاملUsing O2 to probe membrane immersion depth by 19F NMR.
A fluorinated detergent, CF(3)(CF(2))(5)C(2)H(4)-O-maltose, was reconstituted into a lipid bilayer model membrane system to demonstrate the feasibility of determining solvent accessibility and membrane immersion depth of each fluorinated group by (19)F NMR. Apolar oxygen, which is known to partition with an increasing concentration gradient toward the hydrophobic membrane interior, exhibits a r...
متن کاملStudy of the interactions of cadmium and zinc ions with cellular calcium homoeostasis using 19F-NMR spectroscopy.
The effects of the heavy-metal ions Cd2+ and Zn2+ on the homoeostasis of intracellular free Ca2+ in E367 neuroblastoma cells were examined using 19F-NMR spectroscopy with the fluorinated chelator probe 1,2-bis-(2-amino-5-fluorophenoxy)ethane-N,N,N', N'-tetra-acetic acid (5F-BAPTA). First, the technique was used to quantify the uptake and intracellular free concentrations of the heavy metals aft...
متن کاملMonitoring of duplex and triplex formation by 19F NMR using oligodeoxynucleotides possessing 5-fluorodeoxyuridine unit as 19F signal transmitter.
We prepared oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) possessing a 5-fluorodeoxyuridine (5-FU) unit as a 19F-signal transmitter, and characterized their structures including single strand, duplex, and triplex using 19F NMR. The change in chemical shift induced by incorporation of 5-FU into the ODNs and the formation of higher order structures allowed monitoring of structural changes. Data from UV melting ex...
متن کاملLong-range 1H-19F distance measurement in peptides by solid-state NMR.
A new NMR technique for determining long-range 1H-19F distances in solids is demonstrated. Using a modified rotational-echo double resonance (REDOR) sequence involving 1H homonuclear decoupling and composite 19F pulses, we show that it is possible to determine 1H-19F distances to approximately 8 A. The detrimental effect of the large 19F chemical shift to REDOR dephasing is partially compensate...
