Vesicle suspensions of up to 5% egg lecithin and 2.5% cholesterol have been found to have no effect on the NMR relaxation times of 17O from water. Addition of 1-5 mM Mn2+ to an equimolar vesicle suspension of egg lecithin and cholesterol permitted resolution of the free induction decay into two exponential components, a fast one arising from the external water and a slow one arising from the intravesicular fluid. From the rates of relaxation the mean life time of the water molecules within the vesicles was calculated to be 1+/- 0.1 ms at 22 degrees C. The size of the vesicle was estimated from electron micrographs to be about 500 A in diameter. These data yield an equilibrium water permeability, Pw, of about 8 mus-1 for the vesicle membranes. From the temperature dependence of Pw an activation energy of 12+/-2 kcal/mol was obtained. The longitudinal relaxation time (T1) of water within vesicles remained the same as in pure water. 相似文献

The (17)O NMR of bromoperoxidase in Tris buffer at pH 8 treated with (17)O-enriched H2O2 reveals direct binding of peroxide to active site vanadium both in the symmetric and asymmetric modes, the latter possibly due to hydroperoxide. In addition, non-active site HVO2(O2)2(2-) is detected. The results are counter-checked with NMR data on peroxovanadium model compounds. 相似文献

Partially resolved 17O NMR quintet was observed in a filamentous bacteriophage Pf1 solution at 70 degrees C with a quadrupole splitting approximately 100 Hz. As the temperature decreased, the resolution was reduced but the line shapes were still indicative of residual quadrupole splitting. Line shape analyses were performed using the quadrupolar relaxation theory for spin 5/2. The contribution to the residual quadrupole splitting from the electric field gradients stemming from the phage filaments, which were oriented in the magnet, was taken into account. As a result, the observed 17O spectra at different temperatures were simulated and the hydration number of the phage DNA was determined. 相似文献

The triple-quantum filtered (TQF) spin-echo signal of (17)O-water, in the presence of proteins, was analysed to yield estimates of the number of weakly, and strongly bound water molecules. The analysis used a constrained direct iterative regression procedure with a three-state model of fast-exchange. Thus, the population size of free, weakly, and strongly bound water were determined simultaneously. The two fractions of the bound water were estimated by using correlation time(s) estimated in other studies. Bovine serum albumin (BSA), basic pancreatic trypsin inhibitor (BPTI), lysozyme and oxyhaemoglobin were studied. Of the four proteins, BSA contained the largest number of strongly and weakly bound water molecules, there being approximately 30 of the former and approximately 3000 of the latter under conditions of high protein concentration. The correlation time of the proteins increases with their concentration in solution, and when this was taken into account for BSA the estimated number of strongly bound water molecules did not change significantly. This NMR technique, and data analysis, will probably also be useful in studies of water binding and mobility in various systems including hydrogels, protein networks, membranes, cells and tissues. 相似文献

13C, 17O and 57Fe NMR spectra of several carbonmonoxy hemoprotein models with varying polar and steric effects of the distal organic superstructure, constraints of the proximal side, and porphyrin ruffling are reported. Both heme models and heme proteins obey a similar excellent linear delta(13C) versus nu(C-O) relationship which is primarily due to modulation of pi-back-bonding from the Fe d(pi) to CO pi* orbital by the distal pocket polar interactions. The lack of correlation between delta(13C) and delta(17O) suggests that the two probes do not reflect a similar type of electronic and structural perturbation. delta(17O) is not primarily influenced by the local distal field interactions and does not correlate with any single structural property of the Fe-C-O unit; however, atropisomerism and deformation of the porphyrin geometry appear to play a significant role. 57Fe shieldings vary by nearly 900 ppm among various hemes and an excellent correlation was found between delta(57Fe) and the absolute crystallographic average displacement of the meso carbon atoms, /Cm/, relative to the porphyrin core mean plane. The excellent correlation between iron-57 shieldings and the average shieldings of the meso carbons of the porphyrin skeleton of TPP derivatives suggests that the two probes reflect a similar type of electronic and structural perturbation which is primarily porphyrin ruffling. 相似文献

Diffusion-controlled water permeation across bilayers of polyunsaturated phospholipids was measured by 17O nuclear magnetic resonance. In 100-nm extruded liposomes containing 50 mM MnCl2, water exchange between internal and external solutions was monitored via changes in the linewidth of the 17O water resonance of external water. Liposome size and shape were characterized by light scattering methods and determination of liposome trapped volume. At 25 degrees C, the following water permeability coefficients were determined: 18:0-18:1n-9 PC, 155 +/- 24 microns/s; 18:0-18:3n-3 PC, 330 +/- 88 microns/s; and 18:0-22:6n-3 PC, 412 +/- 91 microns/s. The addition of 1 M ethanol reduced permeability coefficients to 66 +/- 15 microns/s for 18:0-18:1n-9 PC and to 239 +/- 67 microns/s for 18:0-22:6n-3 PC. Furthermore, the addition of 50 mol% 18:1n-9-18:1n-9 PE reduced the water permeability from 122 +/- 21 microns/s for pure 18:1n-9-18:1n-9 PC to 74 +/- 15 microns/s for the mixture. The significant increase in water permeation for membranes with polyunsaturated hydrocarbon chains correlates with looser packing of polyunsaturated lipids at the lipid-water interface and the suggested deeper penetration of water into these bilayers. Ethanol may block water diffusion pathways by occupying points of water entry into bilayers at the interface. The addition of dioleoylphosphatidylethanolamine increases lipid packing density and, consequently, reduces permeation rates. 相似文献

The study of water relaxation rates of solutions of melanins with paramagnetic metal ions provides a powerful tool for investigating the binding sites and for obtaining useful structural and dynamic information. The measure of 1H- and 2H-longitudinal and transverse relaxation rates at a single, high-magnetic field for H2O/D2O (80:20) solutions allows the determination of tau c, tau R, tau e, tau M, r, q, and Z (the outer sphere contribution to the overall relaxation rate) for Mn(II)-L-Dopa melanin system. 相似文献

The predominant species in water solution of excess carnosine and Cu2+ ions was characterized by measuring 13C and 1H spin-lattice and spin-spin relaxation rates. Four peptide molecules were calculated to be coordinated to the metal through the imidazole nitrogen. Evaluation of ion-proton distances demonstrated that metal complexation does not involve severe changes in conformation of the peptide. 相似文献

The spin-spin relaxation times, T(2), of hydrated samples of poly(hydroxymethyl methacrylate), PHEMA, poly(tetrahydrofurfuryl methacrylate), PTHFMA, and the corresponding HEMA-THFMA copolymers have been examined to probe the states of the imbibed water in these polymers. The decay in the transverse magnetization of water in fully hydrated samples of PHEMA, PTHFMA, and copolymers of HEMA and THFMA was described by a multiexponential function. The short component of T(2) was interpreted as water molecules that were strongly interacting with the polymer chains. The intermediate component of T(2) was assigned to water residing in the porous structure of the samples. The long component of T(2) was believed to arise from water residing in the remnants of cracks formed in the polymer network during water sorption. 相似文献

(17)O NMR spectroscopy of oxo ligand of oxo metalloporphyrin can be considered as an excellent means to derive information about structure, electronic state, and reactivity of the metal bound oxo ligand. To show the utility of (17)O NMR spectroscopy of oxo ligand of oxo metalloporphyrin, (17)O NMR spectra of oxo ligands of dioxo ruthenium(VI), oxo chromium(IV), and oxo titanium(IV) porphyrins are measured. For all oxo metalloporphyrins, well-resolved (17)O NMR signals are detected in far high frequency region. The (17)O NMR signal of the metal bound oxo ligand shifts high frequency in order of Ru(VI)相似文献

Oxygen-17 NMR relaxation studies on gelatinization temperature and water mobility in maize starches 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The effects of starch/water ratio, amylose content, degree of phosphorylation, and added KI on water mobility in maize starch-water dispersions were studied by oxygen-17 spin-spin relaxation time measurements over a range of temperatures. The results demonstrate that: (i) the changes in spin-spin relaxation time (ΔT2) reflect the degree of starch-water interaction at different stages of the heating process; (ii) the amount of added water affects the initial T2 and ΔT2 during gelatinization; (iii) higher amylose contents result in lower water mobility in starch-water systems; (iv) higher degrees of phosphorylation lead to a decrease in water mobility, accompanied by a decrease in gelatinization temperature; and (v) added KI effectively decreases water mobility and gelatinization temperature in the starch-water systems studied. 相似文献

D-Fructose was analysed by NMR spectroscopy and previously unidentified (1)H NMR resonances were assigned to the keto and α-pyranose tautomers. The full assignment of shifts for the various fructose tautomers enabled the use of (1)H NMR spectroscopy in studies of the mutarotation (5-25°C) and tautomeric composition at equilibrium (5-50°C). The mutarotation of β-pyranose to furanose tautomers in D(2)O at a concentration of 0.18 M was found to have an activation energy of 62.6 kJmol(-1). At tautomeric equilibrium (20°C in D(2)O) the distribution of the β-pyranose, β-furanose, α-furanose, α-pyranose and the keto tautomers was found to be 68.23%, 22.35%, 6.24%, 2.67% and 0.50%, respectively. This tautomeric composition was not significantly affected by varying concentrations between 0.089 and 0.36 M or acidification to pH 3. Upon equilibrating at 6 temperatures between 5 and 50°C there was a linear relationship between the change in concentration and temperature for all forms. 相似文献

Spectra of proton and deuteron magnetic resonance of water molecules in oriented biopolymer samples (collagen, DNA, cellulose) are interpreted on the basis of a model of molecular Schottki-type diffusion. The presence of narrow splittings are shown to be the result of slight distortions of “ideal” symmetry of orientations of p-p and O-D vectors, corresponding to the point symmetry group of a tetrahedron, one of whose C3-axes is oriented along the fiber axis. 相似文献

With the aim to detect the existence of spin-isomeric molecules in water by NMR tomography, comparative measurement of NMR signal integral amplitude was performed with pure water and 50/50 water/heavy water mixture. Magnetic field was 0.5 T in tomographic and spectroscopic regimes. No spin-isomeric effect was registered, taking into account that the error of measurements did not exceed 5%. 相似文献

Oxygen is known to partition with an increasing concentration gradient toward the hydrophobic membrane interior. At partial pressures (P(O2)) of 100 Atm or more, this concentration gradient is sufficient to induce paramagnetic effects that depend sensitively on membrane immersion depth. This effect is demonstrated for the fluorine nucleus by depth-dependent paramagnetic shifts and spin-lattice relaxation rates, using a fluorinated detergent, CF3(CF(2))(5)C(2)H(4)-O-maltose (TFOM), reconstituted into a lipid bilayer model membrane system. To interpret the spin-lattice relaxation rates (R) in terms of a precise immersion depth, two specifically fluorinated cholesterol species (6-fluorocholesterol and 25-fluorocholesterol), whose membrane immersion depths were independently estimated, were studied by (19)F NMR. The paramagnetic relaxation rates, R, of the cholesterol species were then used to parameterize a Gaussian profile that directly relates R to immersion depth z. This same Gaussian curve could then be used to determine the membrane immersion depth of all six fluorinated chain positions of TFOM and of two adjacent residues of specifically fluorinated analogs of the antibacterial peptide indolicidin. The potential of this method for determination of immersion depth and topology of membrane proteins is discussed. 相似文献

Despite the importance of protein fibrils in the context of conformational diseases, information on their structure is still sparse. Hydrogen/deuterium exchange measurements of backbone amide protons allow the identification hydrogen-bonding patterns and reveal pertinent information on the amyloid β-sheet architecture. However, they provide only little information on the identity of residues exposed to solvent or buried inside the fibril core. NMR spectroscopy is a potent method for identifying solvent-accessible residues in proteins via observation of polarization transfer between chemically exchanging side-chain protons and water protons. We show here that the combined use of highly deuterated samples and fast magic-angle spinning greatly attenuates unwanted spin diffusion and allows identification of polarization exchange with the solvent in a site-specific manner. We apply this measurement protocol to HET-s(218-289) prion fibrils under different conditions (including physiological pH, where protofibrils assemble together into thicker fibrils) and demonstrate that each protofibril of HET-s(218-289), is surrounded by water, thus excluding the existence of extended dry interfibril contacts. We also show that exchangeable side-chain protons inside the hydrophobic core of HET-s(218-289) do not exchange over time intervals of weeks to months. The experiments proposed in this study can provide insight into the detailed structural features of amyloid fibrils in general. 相似文献
