The function of biologically active molecules depends both on their structure and on their conformational dynamics. In solution, intramolecular interaction with the solvent will influence different biological processes, i.e. protein folding. However second ...
We describe here a study of the spectroscopy of two peptides that we expect to be helical, Ac-Phe-(Ala)5-Lys-H+ and Ac-Phe-(Ala)10-Lys-H+, and one that we expect to be globular, Ac-Lys(H+)-Phe-(Ala)10, with the goal of identifying spectral features charact ...
We present here ultraviolet and infrared spectra of protonated aromatic amino acids in a cold, 22-pole ion trap. Ultraviolet photofragmentation spectra of protonated tyrosine and phenylalanine show vibronically resolved bands corresponding to different sta ...
In this work we use laser-induced population transfer techniques to study the conformational isomerization of a helical peptide, Ac-Phe-(Ala)5-LysH+, in a cold ion trap. In one scheme, called IR-UV hole-filling spectroscopy, a single conformation is select ...
