A modified HNHB experiment is presented that allows thedetermination of J(NH) coupling constants directly from the ratio ofcross-peak to diagonal-peak intensities. The experiment was applied to thephotoactive yellow protein (PYP) and yielded the magnitude of 1173J(NH) coupling constants. In addition, 293J(NH(i–1)) coupling constantscould be measured, providing information about the backbone angle .These data, in conjunction with the magnitudes of the3J(HNH) coupling constantsobtained from the HNHA spectrum, effectively discriminate the twopossibilities for the stereospecific assignment of theH resonances in glycine residues. For all eight glycineresidues in PYP that were not subject to conformational averaging and hadnon-degenerate H resonance frequencies, the J-couplingdata, together with limited NOE data, yielded the stereospecific assignmentof the H resonances for these residues. In addition,reliable and precise , dihedral constraints were also derived forthese residues from the J-coupling data.  相似文献

Intracellular electrical recordings in onion (Allium cepa L.) guard cells show that they maintain a membrane potential difference (MPD), inside negative. The MPD of intact cells averaged -72±29 mV (n=45); MPD of cells partially digested with a cellulolytic enzyme, -39±7 mV (n=65). Evidence indicates that the guard cells have two electrically distinct compartments, presumably delimited by the plasmalemma and tonoplast. Epidermal cells in partially digested preparations also showed MPD that could be either positive (+15±7 mV; n=23) or negative (-15 ±8 mV; n=13). Guard cells exposed to light-dark cycles hyperpolarized in the light and depolarized in the dark. The largest observed voltage changes reached 52 mV during hyperpolarizations and 60 mV during depolarizations. The light responses saturated with roughly exponential kinetics, with the depolarizations exhibiting a slower second phase that might be related to the contracting movements of the guard cells. Initial rates of the responses averaged about 14 mV min-1 in the dark and about 8 mV min-1 in the light. The results can be interpreted as electrical correlates of fluctuations in intracellular potassium concentration, as light-induced changes in membrane permeability, or as the photoactivation of an electrogenic proton pump. The last possibility seems to be the simplest interpretation of the data that also provides us with a mechanism driving the ion fluxes associated with stomatal function.  相似文献

We show the unexpectedly important role of the protein environment in the primary step of the photoreaction of the yellow protein after light illumination. The driving force of the trans-to-cis isomerization reaction was analyzed by a computational method. The force was separated into two different components: the term due to the protein-chromophore interaction and the intrinsic term of the chromophore itself. As a result, we found that the contribution from the interaction term was much greater than that coming from the intrinsic term. This accounts for the efficiency of the isomerization reaction in the protein environment in contrast to that in solution environments. We then analyzed the relaxation process of the chromophore on the excited-state energy surface and compared the process in the protein environment and that in a vacuum. Based on this analysis, we found that the bond-selectivity of the isomerization reaction also comes from the interaction between the chromophore and the protein environment.  相似文献

Photoactive yellow protein (PYP) is a prototype of the PAS domain superfamily of signaling proteins. The signaling process is coupled to a three-state photocycle. After the photoinduced trans-cis isomerization of the chromophore, 4-hydroxycinnamic acid (pCA), an early intermediate (pR) is formed, which proceeds to a second intermediate state (pB) on a sub-millisecond time scale. The signaling process is thought to be connected to the conformational changes upon the formation of pB and its recovery to the ground state (pG), but the exact signaling mechanism is not known. Experimental studies of PYP by solution NMR and X-ray crystallography suggest a very flexible protein backbone in the ground as well as in the signaling state. The relaxation from the pR to the pB state is accompanied by the protonation of the chromophore's phenoxyl group. This was found to be of crucial importance for the relaxation process. With the goal of gaining a better understanding of these experimental observations on an atomistic level, we performed five MD simulations on the three different states of PYP: a 1 ns simulation of PYP in its ground state [pG(MD)], a 1 ns simulation of the pR state [pR(MD)], a 2 ns simulation of the pR state with the chromophore protonated (pRprot), a 2 ns simulation of the pR state with Glu46 exchanged by Gln (pRGln) and a 2 ns simulation of PYP in its signaling state [pB(MD)]. Comparison of the pG simulation results with X-ray and NMR data, and with the results obtained for the pB simulation, confirmed the experimental observations of a rather flexible protein backbone and conformational changes during the recovery of the pG from the pB state. The conformational changes in the region around the chromophore pocket in the pR state were found to be crucially dependent on the strength of the Glu46-pCA hydrogen bond, which restricts the mobility of the chromophore in its unprotonated form considerably. Both the mutation of Glu46 with Gln and the protonation of the chromophore weaken this hydrogen bond, leading to an increased mobility of pCA and large structural changes in its surroundings. These changes, however, differ considerably during the pRGln and pRprot simulations, providing an atomistic explanation for the enhancement of the rate constant in the Gln46 mutant.

Fatty acids of the n-3 and n-6 families containing a photoactive conjugated tetraene group near the carboxylate were prepared from several naturally occurring fatty acids by sequential iodolactonization and treatment with excess 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene. The new conjugated fatty acids include 5E,7E,9E,11Z,14Z- and 5E,7E,9E,11E,14Z-eicosapentaenoic acids derived from arachidonic acid; 5E,7E,9E,11Z,14Z,17Z- and 5E,7E,9E,11E,14Z,17Z-eicosahexaenoic acids from eicosapentaenoic acid; and 4E,6E,8E,10Z,13Z,16Z,19Z- and 4E,6E,8E,10E,13Z,16Z,19Z-docosaheptaenoic acids from docosahexaenoic acid. All of the newly synthesized fatty acids were characterized by UV, 1H NMR and mass spectroscopy. These new products represent the first examples of directed conjugation of methylene interrupted double bond systems. The products can be synthesized in gram quantities and in high yields (>50%). Interestingly, it did not prove possible to synthesize fatty acids having a triene group near the carboxyl group even using mild conditions and different synthetic approaches. Once initiated, the isomerization always continued until a tetraene group was formed. Because of the sensitivity of the tetraene group to light, these fatty acids have the potential for being used in tracking fatty acid movements in cells employing fluorescence techniques and in UV light-induced cross linking to membrane proteins.  相似文献

Interaction of DNA with a novel photoactive platinum diimine compound has been studied by electronic absorption spectra, fluorescence spectra and viscosity measurements. The red light-induced DNA cleavage activity of the platinum compound has also been studied by agarose gel electrophoresis. The results suggest that the platinum compound may interact with DNA by intercalation mode. When irradiated with red light, the platinum compound can generate singlet oxygen, resulting in cleavage of DNA.  相似文献

Density functional theory (DFT) and time-dependent DFT (TDDFT) studies on a photoactive {FeNO}6 nitrosyl [(PaPy3)Fe(NO)](ClO4)2 (1) and the corresponding light-insensitive {FeNO}7 species [(PaPy3)Fe(NO)](ClO4) (2) have been carried out to determine the origin of NO photolability of 1. The iron center in these two nitrosyls formally exists in 2+ oxidation state and the difference in π-accepting ability of NO+ in 1 versus NO in 2 greatly affects the extent of NO photolability of these two nitrosyls. Low energy transitions from the carboxamido/π(FeNO) to the FeNO antibonding molecular orbitals lead to release of NO from 1 upon exposure to visible light. The decreased π-accepting ability of the NO moiety in 2 does not favor such transitions; instead transitions from orbitals centered at the FeNO unit to the πpy orbitals of the ligand frame become more favorable and the photolability of NO is lost in 2.  相似文献

Our recently presented PS II model (Belyaeva et al., 2008) was improved in order to permit a consistent simulation of Single Flash Induced Transient Fluorescence Yield (SFITFY) traces that were earlier measured by Steffen et al. (2005) on whole leaves of Arabidopsis (A.) thaliana at four different energies of the actinic flash. As the essential modification, the shape of the actinic flash was explicitly taken into account assuming that an exponentially decaying rate simulates the time dependent excitation of PS II by the 10 ns actinic flash. The maximum amplitude of this excitation exceeds that of the measuring light by 9 orders of magnitude. A very good fit of the SFITFY data was achieved in the time domain from 100 ns to 10 s for all actinic flash energies (the maximum energy of 7.5 × 1016 photons/(cm2 flash) is set to 100%, the relative energies of weaker actinic flashes were of ∼8%, 4%, ∼1%). Our model allows the calculation and visualization of the transient PS II redox state populations ranging from the dark adapted state, via excitation energy and electron transfer steps induced by pulse excitation, followed by final relaxation into the stationary state eventually attained under the measuring light. It turned out that the rate constants of electron transfer steps are invariant to intensity of the actinic laser flash. In marked contrast, an increase of the actinic flash energy by more than two orders of magnitude from 5.4 × 1014 photons/(cm2 flash) to 7.5 × 1016 photons/(cm2 flash), leads to an increase of the extent of fluorescence quenching due to carotenoid triplet (3Car) formation by a factor of 14 and of the recombination reaction between reduced primary pheophytin (Phe) and P680+ by a factor of 3 while the heat dissipation in the antenna complex remains virtually constant.The modified PS II model offers new opportunities to compare electron transfer and dissipative parameters for different species (e.g. for the green algae and the higher plant) under varying illumination conditions.  相似文献

Hydrophobic alkylating compounds like 1,5-iodonaphthylazide (INA) partitions into biological membranes and accumulates selectively into the hydrophobic domain of the lipid bilayer. Upon irradiation with far UV light, INA binds selectively to transmembrane proteins in the viral envelope and renders them inactive. Such inactivation does not alter the ectodomains of the membrane proteins thus preserving the structural and conformational integrity of immunogens on the surface of the virus. In this study, we have used INA to inactivate Venezuelan equine encephalitis virus (VEEV). Treatment of VEEV with INA followed by irradiation with UV light resulted in complete inactivation of the virus. Immuno-fluorescence for VEEV and virus titration showed no virus replication in-vitro. Complete loss of infectivity was also achieved in mice infected with INA treated plus irradiated preparations of VEEV. No change in the structural integrity of VEEV particles were observed after treatment with INA plus irradiation as assessed by electron microscopy. This data suggest that such inactivation strategies can be used for developing vaccine candidates for VEEV and other enveloped viruses.  相似文献

The Photoactive Yellow Protein (PYP) is a structural prototype for the PAS superfamily of proteins, which includes hundreds of receptor and regulatory proteins from all three kingdoms of life. PYP itself is a small globular protein that undergoes a photocycle involving a series of conformational changes in response to light excitation of its p-coumaric acid chromophore, making it an excellent model system to study the molecular basis of signaling in the PAS super family. To enable novel chemical approaches to elucidating the structural changes that accompany signaling in PYP, we have chemically synthesized the 125 amino acid residue protein molecule using a combination of Boc chemistry solid phase peptide synthesis and native chemical ligation. Synthetic PYP exhibits the wildtype photocycle, as determined in photobleaching studies. Planned future studies include incorporation of site-specific isotopic labels into specific secondary structural elements to determine which structural elements are involved in signaling state formation using difference FTIR spectroscopy.  相似文献
