Polarized infrared absorption of Na+/K+-ATPase studied by attenuated total reflection spectroscopy.
Na+/K+-ATPase can be isolated from the outer medulla of mammalian kidney in the form of flat membrane fragments containing the enzyme in a density of 10(3)-10(4) protein molecules per microm2 (Deguchi et al. (1977) J. Cell. Biol. 75, 619-634). In this paper we show that these membrane fragments can be bound to a germanium plate coated with a phospholipid bilayer. With this system infrared spect...

متن کاملIn situ determination of transient pKa changes of internal amino acids of bacteriorhodopsin by using time-resolved attenuated total reflection Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy.
Active proton transfer through membrane proteins is accomplished by shifts in the acidity of internal amino acids, prosthetic groups, and water molecules. The recently introduced step-scan attenuated total reflection Fourier-transform infrared (ATR/FT-IR) spectroscopy was employed to determine transient pKa changes of single amino acid side chains of the proton pump bacteriorhodopsin. The high ...
متن کاملAttenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectra of faceted diamonds.
Attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared (ATR FT-IR) spectroscopy has been employed for characterization of faceted diamonds. ATR spectra of round brilliant cut natural diamonds of approximately 0.1 ct were observed with excellent spectral quality. The mirror-flat spectrum of the table facet enables a good contact to the ATR crystal with a minimal applied pressure. The observed AT...
متن کاملProtein conformational changes in the bacteriorhodopsin photocycle.
We report a comprehensive electron crystallographic analysis of conformational changes in the photocycle of wild-type bacteriorhodopsin and in a variety of mutant proteins with kinetic defects in the photocycle. Specific intermediates that accumulate in the late stages of the photocycle of wild-type bacteriorhodopsin, the single mutants D38R, D96N, D96G, T46V, L93A and F219L, and the triple mut...
