The secondary structure of alamethicin in lipid membranes below and above the lipid phase transition temp. Tt is detd. by Raman spectroscopy and CD measurements. In both cases structural data are obtained by fitting the exptl. spectra by a superposition of ...
The secondary structure of bacterio-opsin (BO), the retinal free protein-component of bacteriorhodopsin (BR), was detd. by Raman spectroscopy. Addnl. CD measurements revealed only negligible conformational differences between BO in apomembranes and BR in p ...
Among several effects, ethanol (EtOH) interferes with membrane fluidity and lipid-protein interactions. As proteins are influenced by surrounding lipids, the activity of membrane-bound enzymes such as adenylate cyclase (AC) could be modulated by EtOH, as s ...
The secondary structure of porin, maltoporin, and OmpA protein reconstituted in lipid membranes was detd. by Raman spectroscopy. The 3 proteins have similar structures consisting of 50-60% b-strand, .apprx.20% b-turn, and
Raman spectroscopy demonstrated that (1) in pure lipid membranes (dihexadecylphosphatidic acid or phosphatidylcholines), the lipid chains are mainly in an all-trans conformation in the ordered membrane phase, and in the fluid phase, lipid chains contain al ...
The secondary structure of lactose permease (I) of Escherichia coli reconstituted in lipid membranes was detd. by Raman spectroscopy. The a-helix content was .apprx.70%, the b-strand content was
