A series of 11 low melting ionic liquids based on meso-substituted A(3)B-porphyrins and A(2)B(2)-porphyrins containing one or two pyridyl substituents have been synthesized in high yields. Three of them are liquids at room temperature. All these porphyrini ...
The conformations of a number of M2TMP-(22-46) sequence variants have been investigated using ion mobility spectrometry (IMS). Substantial conformational changes were evidenced by IMS upon the variation of a single amino acid in the peptide sequence, with ...
Polyiodides have been transferred intact from acetonitrile solution to the gas phase and analyzed by mass spectrometry. A range of ions were observed, including I-11, I-13, and I-15, which have higher iodine/iodide ratios than any previously ...
Excitation spectra of the and transitions of aniline cations embedded in helium nanodroplets are reported. The spectra are characterized by broad asymmetric resonances that consist of an intrinsically broadened zero-phonon line which partially overlaps wit ...
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 ...
In recent years, spectroscopic investigations of cold, biomolecular ions have started to provide new, detailed information about the structures of biomolecules in the gas phase. The present work comprises three major parts that describe the development of ...
We report on the first successful high-resolution spectroscopic studies on isolated para-coumaric acid, the chromophore of the photoactive yellow protein which has become a model system for studying biological light induced signal transduction. Employing v ...
We have measured a vibrationally-resolved UV spectrum of doubly-protonated gramicidin S (GS) in the gas phase and, subsequently, a highly-resolved, conformer-specific infrared spectra in the 6 μm fingerprint region, using a cold ion trap in combination wit ...
The function of a peptide is intimately connected to its structure, which in solution is the result of the balance between non-covalent interactions within the molecule and the molecule-solvent interactions. Theory has the power to predict the properties o ...
The conformation of model Arg(Ala)(4)X(Ala)(4)Lys+2H and Arg(Gly)(4)X(Gly)(4)Lys+2H peptides has been systematically investigated as a function of the central amino acid X through a combined experimental and theoretical approach. Mass spectrome ...
