Simulations of Two-dimensional Infrared and Stimulated Resonance Raman Spectra of Photoactive Yellow Protein.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present simulations of one and two-dimensional infrared (2DIR) and stimulated resonance Raman (SRR) spectra of the dark state (pG) and early red-shifted intermediate (pR) of photoactive yellow protein (PYP). Shifts in the amide I and Glu46 COOH stretching bands distinguish between pG and pR in the IR absorption and 2DIR spectra. The one-dimensional SRR spectra are similar to the spontaneous RR spectra. The two-dimensional SRR spectra show large changes in cross peaks involving the C=O stretch of the two species and are more sensitive to the chromophore structure than 2DIR spectra.

Resonance Raman evidence that the thioester-linked 4-hydroxycinnamyl chromophore of photoactive yellow protein is deprotonated.
Resonance Raman spectra of the ground state of photoactive yellow protein (PYP), a photoactive pigment found in Ectothiorhodospira halophila, have been obtained with excitation at 413.1 nm using a microspinning sample cell. The resonance Raman spectra of the thioester-linked 4-hydroxycinnamyl chromophore in the protein are compared with the preresonance Raman spectra of the 4-hydroxycinnamyl ph...
متن کاملResonance Raman evidence for two conformations involved in the L intermediate of photoactive yellow protein.
The blue light receptor photoactive yellow protein (PYP) displays a photocycle that involves several intermediate states. Here we report resonance Raman spectroscopic investigations of the short-lived red-shifted intermediate denoted PYP(L). We have found that the Raman bands of the carbonyl C=O stretching mode nu(11) as well as the C=C stretching mode nu(13) for the chromophore can be resolved...
متن کاملTwo-dimensional stimulated resonance Raman spectroscopy study of the Trp-cage peptide folding.
We report a combined molecular dynamics (MD) and ab initio simulation study of the ultrafast broadband ultraviolet (UV) stimulated resonance Raman (SRR) spectra of the Trp-cage mini protein. Characteristic two dimensional (2D) SRR features of various folding states are identified. Structural fluctuations erode the cross peaks and the correlation between diagonal peaks is a good indicator of the...

Background: Carious lesions are formed by a complex process of chemical interaction between dental enamel and its environment. They can cause cavities and pain, and are expensive to fix. It is hard to characterize in vivo as a result of environment factors and remineralization by ions in the oral cavity. Objectives: The development of a technique that gives early diagnosis which is non-invasi...
متن کاملProbing the early stages of photoreception in photoactive yellow protein with ultrafast time-domain Raman spectroscopy.
Unveiling the nuclear motions of photoreceptor proteins in action is a crucial goal in protein science in order to understand their elaborate mechanisms and how they achieve optimal selectivity and efficiency. Previous studies have provided detailed information on the structures of intermediates that appear during the later stages (>ns) of such photoreception cycles, yet the initial events imme...
