چکیده
(48) Although Hayaf and Silver (ref 12) calculate B = 17’, using their .Procedure and data we obtain B = 12” which corresponds to 4 = 36” and q N N N (36”) = 24.4 G . (49) (a)# L. J.

Estimating Slow - Motional Rotational Correlation Times for Nitroxides by Electron Spin Resonance
A simple method of estimating slow-motional rotational correlation times rR for nitroxides by esr, which is based on the rigorous theory of Freed, Bruno, and Polnaszek, is discussed. The results can be fit to the expression r3 = a(1 S)b , where S is the ratio of the separation of the outer hyperfine extrema to that for t,he rigid limit value. The parameters a and b depend upon intrinsic line wi...
متن کاملMethodology for increased precision in saturation transfer electron paramagnetic resonance studies of rotational dynamics.
Microsecond rotational motions of nitroxide spin labels are measured primarily with saturation transfer electron paramagnetic resonance (ST-EPR). In the present study we have used model system experiments to quantitatively evaluate different ST-EPR spectral parameters, both in-phase and out-of-phase, with an emphasis on techniques for suppressing the interference from weakly immobilized probes....
متن کاملSaturation transfer electron parametric resonance of an indane-dione spin-label. Calibration with hemoglobin and application to myosin rotational dynamics.
We have used a recently synthesized indane-dione spin label (2-[-oxyl-2,2,5,5-tetramethyl-3-pyrrolin-3-yl)methenyl]in dane-1,3-dione (InVSL) to study the rotational dynamics of myosin, with saturation-transfer electron paramagnetic resonance (ST-EPR). To determine effective rotational correlation times (tau effr) from InVSL spectra, reference spectra corresponding to known correlation times (ta...
متن کاملMicrosecond rotational motion of spin-labeled myosin heads during isometric muscle contraction. Saturation transfer electron paramagnetic resonance.
We have used saturation transfer electron paramagnetic resonance (ST-EPR) to detect the microsecond rotational motions of spin-labeled myosin heads in bundles of skinned muscle fibers, under conditions of rigor, relaxation, and isometric contraction. Experiments were performed on fiber bundles perfused continuously with an ATP-regenerating system. Conditions were identical to those we have used...
متن کاملLarge-scale rotational motions of proteins detected by electron paramagnetic resonance and fluorescence.
Direct spectroscopic measurements of rotational motions of proteins and large protein segments are crucial to understanding the molecular dynamics of protein function. Fluorescent probes and spin labels attached to proteins have proved to be powerful tools in the study of large-scale protein motions. Fluorescence depolarization and conventional electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) are applicab...
