Purification, crystallization, NMR spectroscopy and biochemical analyses of alpha-phy

Purification, crystallization, NMR spectroscopy and biochemical analyses of alpha-phycoerythrocyanin peptides.

Eur J Biochem. 2002 Oct;269(20):5046-55

Authors: Wiegand G, Parbel A, Seifert MH, Holak TA, Reuter W

The alpha-phycoerythrocyanin subunits of the different phycoerythrocyanin complexes of the phycobilisomes from the cyanobacterium Mastigocladus laminosus perform a remarkable photochemistry. Similar to phytochromes - the photoreceptors of higher plants - the spectral properties of the molecule reversibly change according to the irradiation wavelength. To enable extensive analyses, the protein has been produced at high yield by improving purification protocols. As a result, several comparative studies on the Z- and E-configurations of the intact alpha-subunit, and also on photoactive peptides originating from nonspecific degradations of the chromoprotein, were possible. The analyses comprise absorbance, fluorescence and CD spectroscopy, crystallization, preliminary X-ray measurements, mass spectrometry, N-terminal amino acid sequencing and 1D NMR spectroscopy. Intact alpha-phycoerythrocyanin aggregates significantly, due to hydrophobic interactions between the two N-terminal helices. Removal of these helices reduces the aggregation but also destabilizes the protein fold. The complete subunit could be crystallized in its E-configuration, but the X-ray measurement conditions must be improved. Nevertheless, NMR spectroscopy on a soluble photoactive peptide presents the first insight into the complex chromophore protein interactions that are dependent on the light induced state. The chromophore environment in the Z-configuration is rigid whereas other regions of the protein are more flexible. In contrast, the E-configuration has a mobile chromophore, especially the pyrrole ring D, while other regions of the protein rigidified compared to the Z-configuration.

Metabolic characterization of Palatinate German white wines according to sensory attributes, varieties, and vintages using NMR spectroscopy and multivariate data analyses Metabolic characterization of Palatinate German white wines according to sensory attributes, varieties, and vintages using NMR spectroscopy and multivariate data analyses Abstract 1H NMR (nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy) has been used for metabolomic analysis of â??Rieslingâ?? and â??Mueller-Thurgauâ?? white wines from the German Palatinate region. Diverse two-dimensional NMR techniques have been applied for the identification of metabolites, including phenolics. It is shown that sensory analysis correlates with NMR-based metabolic profiles of wine. 1H NMR data in combination...	nmrlearner	Journal club	0	03-03-2011 02:06 AM
