Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and proton ENDOR (electron-nuclear double resonance) spectroscopies were used to analyze the structural and electronic parameters of the oxidized [Fe4S4] cubane clusters in high-potential iron sulfur proteins (HiPIPs) fromEctothiorhodospira halophila (HiPIP I) andRhodocyclus tenuis. TheE. halophila HiPIP I EPR spectra at X- and Q-band revealed a dominant species (simulated withg max=2.1425,g int=2.0315,g min=2.0296) and a minor species (ca. 5–10% contribution) which was not analyzed further. ForR. tenuis HiPIP the EPR spectrum contained a single species only (g max=2.1140,g int=2.0392,g min=2.0215), i.e., withg max significantly smaller than that of theE. halophila protein. Orientation-selected proton ENDOR spectra of HiPIP I ofE. halophila were reconstructed by simulation with slight modifications of the crystal structure data. ENDOR from two mutants, F36S and F36G, ofE. halophila HiPIP I gave evidence for a common assignment of a HB2 proton of a phenylalanine residue (36 and 44, respectively, in isoenzymes I and II as reported earlier) interacting with the mixed-valence pair iron ions Fe2 and Fe3. ForR. tenuis HiPIP, the ENDOR spectra were assigned to arise from Fe3 and Fe4 as mixedvalence pair under the assumption of an unchanged intrinsicg-tensor symmetry. The resulting site specificity of the cubane oxidation was discussed in relation to structural requirements and redox potentials of the two HiPIPs. 相似文献

We investigate nonlinear oscillations in a fourth-order partialdifferential equation which models a suspension bridge. Previouswork establishes multiple periodic solutions when a parameterexceeds a certain eigenvalue. In this paper, we use Leray-Schauderdegree theory to prove that if the parameter is increased further,beyond a second eigenvalue, then additional solutions are created. 相似文献

Meta-cleavage product (MCP) hydrolases are members of the α/β-hydrolase superfamily that utilize a Ser-His-Asp triad to catalyze the hydrolysis of a C-C bond. BphD, the MCP hydrolase from the biphenyl degradation pathway, hydrolyzes 2-hydroxy-6-oxo-6-phenylhexa-2,4-dienoic acid (HOPDA) to 2-hydroxypenta-2,4-dienoic acid (HPD) and benzoate. A 1.6 ? resolution crystal structure of BphD H265Q incubated with HOPDA revealed that the enzyme's catalytic serine was benzoylated. The acyl-enzyme is stabilized by hydrogen bonding from the amide backbone of 'oxyanion hole' residues, consistent with formation of a tetrahedral oxyanion during nucleophilic attack by Ser112. Chemical quench and mass spectrometry studies substantiated the formation and decay of a Ser112-benzoyl species in wild-type BphD on a time scale consistent with turnover and incorporation of a single equivalent of (18)O into the benzoate produced during hydrolysis in H(2)(18)O. Rapid-scanning kinetic studies indicated that the catalytic histidine contributes to the rate of acylation by only an order of magnitude, but affects the rate of deacylation by over 5 orders of magnitude. The orange-colored catalytic intermediate, ES(red), previously detected in the wild-type enzyme and proposed herein to be a carbanion, was not observed during hydrolysis by H265Q. In the newly proposed mechanism, the carbanion abstracts a proton from Ser112, thereby completing tautomerization and generating a serinate for nucleophilic attack on the C6-carbonyl. Finally, quantification of an observed pre-steady-state kinetic burst suggests that BphD is a half-site reactive enzyme. While the updated catalytic mechanism shares features with the serine proteases, MCP hydrolase-specific chemistry highlights the versatility of the Ser-His-Asp triad. 相似文献

We report on first measurements with polarized electrons stored in a medium-energy ring and with a polarized internal target. Polarized electrons were injected at 442 MeV (653 MeV), and a partial (full) Siberian snake was employed to preserve the polarization. Longitudinal polarization at the interaction point and polarization lifetime of the stored electrons were determined with laser backscattering. Spin observables were measured for electrodisintegration of polarized 3He, with simultaneous detection of scattered electrons, protons, neutrons, deuterons, and 3He nuclei, over a large phase space. 相似文献

The Directed ortho Metalation (DoM)/Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling strategy is applied for the regiospecific construction of all isomeric monochloro and selected dichloro and trichloro 2,3-dihydroxybiphenyls (DHBs). The combined methodology highlights iterative DoM processes, hindered Suzuki-Miyaura couplings, and advantages in diversity in approaches from commercial starting materials leading to provision of chloro-DHBs as single isomers in high purity and on a gram scale. The syntheis of several PCBs are also reported. 相似文献

Background
Our group previously demonstrated that a DNA plasmid encoding the mycobacterial 65-kDa heat shock protein (DNA-HSP65) displayed prophylactic and therapeutic effect in a mice model for tuberculosis. This protection was attributed to induction of a strong cellular immunity against HSP65. As specific immunity to HSP60 family has been detected in arthritis, multiple sclerosis and diabetes, the vaccination procedure with DNA-HSP65 could induce a cross-reactive immune response that could trigger or worsen these autoimmune diseases. 相似文献9.

Ultraviolet resonance Raman spectroscopy (UVRRS), electronic absorption spectroscopy, and X-ray crystallography were used to probe the nature of the binding of 2,3-dihydroxybiphenyl (DHB) to the extradiol ring-cleavage enzyme, 2,3-dihydroxybiphenyl 1,2-dioxygenase (DHBD; EC 1.13.11.39). The lowest lying transitions in the electronic absorption spectrum of DHBD-bound DHB occurred at 299 nm, compared to 305 nm for the monoanionic DHB species in buffer. In contrast, the corresponding transitions in neutral and dianionic DHB occurred at 283 and 348 nm, respectively, indicating that DHBD-bound DHB is monoanionic. These binding-induced spectral changes, and the use of custom-designed optical fiber probes, facilitated UVRR experiments. The strongest feature of the UVRR spectrum of DHB was a Y8a-like mode around 1600 cm(-1), whose position depended strongly on the protonation state of the DHB. In the spectrum of the DHBD-bound species, this feature occurred at 1603 cm(-1), as observed in the spectrum of monoanionic DHB. Raman band shifts were observed in deuterated solvent, ruling out dianionic binding of the substrate. Thus, the electronic absorption and UVRRS data demonstrate that DHBD binds its catecholic substrate as a monoanion, definitively establishing this feature of the proposed mechanism of extradiol dioxygenases. This conclusion is supported by a crystal structure of the DHBD:DHB complex at 2.0 A resolution, which suggests that the substrate's 2-hydroxyl substituent, and not the 3-hydroxyl group, deprotonates upon binding. The structural data also show that the aromatic rings of the enzyme-bound DHB are essentially orthogonal to each other. Thus, the 6 nm blue shift of the transition for bound DHB relative to the monoanion in solution could indicate a conformational change upon binding. Catalytic roles of active site residues are proposed based on the structural data and previously proposed mechanistic schemes. 相似文献

The basis of the respective regiospecificities of intradiol and extradiol dioxygenase is poorly understood and may be linked to the protonation state of the bidentate-bound catechol in the enzyme/substrate complex. Previous ultraviolet resonance Raman (UVRR) and UV-visible (UV-vis) difference spectroscopic studies demonstrated that, in extradiol dioxygenases, the catechol is bound to the Fe(II) as a monoanion. In this study, we use the same approaches to demonstrate that, in catechol 1,2-dioxygenase (C12O), an intradiol enzyme, the catechol binds to the Fe(III) as a dianion. Specifically, features at 290 nm and 1550 cm(-1) in the UV-vis and UVRR difference spectra, respectively, are assigned to dianionic catechol based on spectra of the model compound, ferric tris(catecholate). The UVRR spectroscopic band assignments are corroborated by density functional theory (DFT) calculations. In addition, negative features at 240 nm in UV-vis difference spectra and at 1600, 1210, and 1175 cm(-1) in UVRR difference spectra match those of a tyrosinate model compound, consistent with protonation of the axial tyrosinate ligand when it is displaced from the ferric ion coordination sphere upon substrate binding. The DFT calculations ascribe the asymmetry of the bound dianionic substrate to the trans donor effect of an equatorially ligated tyrosinate ligand. In addition, the computations suggest that trans donation from the tyrosinate ligand may facilitate charge transfer from the substrate to yield the iron-bound semiquinone transition state, which is capable of reacting with dioxygen. In illustrating the importance of ligand trans effects in a biological system, the current study demonstrates the power of combining difference UVRR and optical spectroscopies to probe metal ligation in solution. 相似文献
