CD studies

The set of Mo(V) EPR signals detected in D. gigas and D. desulfuricans AORs shows close homology with the molybdenum-containing hydroxylase group. Mossbauer and X/Q-band EPR spectroscopic studies 208, 216) complemented the UV/visible and CD studies and the assignment of the [2Fe-2S] arrangement of the iron-sulfur cores.

These CD studies confirmed the binding stoichiometries of our aPNA-DNA complexes and provided further support for our binding model. Comparisons between the CD spectra of the individual components and the aPNA DNA complex suggest a template effect (not unhke that observed with certain DNA-binding proteins) where the components induce mutual conformational changes upon their interaction with each other. 

Camphor has served as a prototypical molecule for CD studies for a number of years. It has maintained that role in more recent investigations of photoelectron CD, where it has also quickly become the most studied system with papers describing PECD in the valence shell [36, 64, 65], the C 1 core region [56] and combined computational studies of both [57].

Stopped-flow CD studies of protein folding have generally revealed a species that forms within the dead-time of the experiment, 10 ms (Kuwajima et al., 1985, 1987). The 222 nm ellipticity of this so-called burst-phase intermediate is generally substantially more negative than...

Very recently, however, two papers were published by the group of Fujiki which report successful solid-state CD studies of chiral polysilanes. In the first, a helix-coil transition was described for film samples of poly[(A)-3,7-dimethyloctyl- -propylsilylene)], 113.327 This polymer has a relatively low glass transition temperature, T, which was considered critical for the observation of a helix-helix transition in the solid state, since helical inversion would be precluded if the inversion temperature, Tc, were below Ts as the segmental motion of the chain,... 

CD studies have recently been made on urea-isolated and renatured individual proteins from the small ribosomal subunit (Venyaminov and Gogia, 1982). In another study (Dijk et al., 1983a), many proteins obtained from both the small and large ribosomal subunits by a gentler salt extraction method were measured with the CD technique. It was found that, in general, the 30 S proteins are rich in a helix and contain a rather small amount of /3 sheet, whereas the 50 S proteins are more diverse, especially in their a helix content, and most are relatively rich in /3 sheet (Dijk et al., 1983a).

Reports of CD studies (78JOC4438), MO (79TL1499) and conformational energy (81MI51206) calculations have appeared. 

X-ray crystallographic examination of bicyclic azetidinone (106) indicates that the azetidinone ring is essentially planar (73JA4647). Selected bond angles and distances are listed in Table 7. H NMR and IR properties for several bicyclic azetidinones are given in Table 8. Theoretical calculation (79T1499) and CD studies (78JOC4438) for the 1-azabicyclo[3.2.0]heptane system have been reported. 

Available evidence indicates, then, that ORD-CD studies reflect a real property of membrane protein. However, results from different laboratories vary. The lack of agreement may reflect true differences in protein conformation from membrane to membrane, but in some cases the effects observed might be artifacts arising, for example, from different preparative procedures or from some poorly understood property of scattering systems.
