Histidine protonation controls structural heterogeneity in the cyanobacteriochrome AnPixJg2
نویسندگان
چکیده
Differences in histidine protonation result contrasting dynamics of the PCB chromophore AnPixJg2. The doubly protonated form induces heterogeneity, which is absent singly form. They can be distinguished using CD spectroscopy.

heterogeneity within the orientalist discourse: representation of the orient in womens travelogues and mens paintings
from 1950s onward, new theories and critical approaches burgeoned across humanities. these theories were context-oriented; as a result, the analysis of discursive practices gained significance. thus, social, political, historical and cultural discourses that have been hitherto marginalized and considered inferior to literary texts, were introduced as important texts to be analyzed by critics. o...
Protonation of a histidine copper ligand in fern plastocyanin.
Plastocyanin is a small blue copper protein that shuttles electrons as part of the photosynthetic redox chain. Its redox behavior is changed at low pH as a result of protonation of the solvent-exposed copper-coordinating histidine. Protonation and subsequent redox inactivation could have a role in the down regulation of photosynthesis. As opposed to plastocyanin from other sources, in fern plas...
متن کاملHistidine protonation and the activation of viral fusion proteins.
Many viral fusion proteins only become activated under mildly acidic condition (pH 4.5-6.5) close to the pK(a) of histidine side-chain protonation. Analysis of the sequences and structures of influenza HA (haemagglutinin) and flaviviral envelope glycoproteins has led to the identification of a number of histidine residues that are not only fully conserved themselves but have local environments ...
متن کاملEnergetic Fitness of Histidine Protonation States in PDB Structures
The energetic fitness of histidine in each of its three protonation states has been investigated for NMRdetermined protein structures by using molecular mechanics calculations. The protein structures have been taken from the Protein Data Bank (PDB). For the proteins in the database, we generated all isomers, considering all combinations of protonation forms of each histidine. The energy of each...
متن کاملChromophore Protonation State Controls Photoswitching of the Fluoroprotein asFP595
Fluorescent proteins have been widely used as genetically encodable fusion tags for biological imaging. Recently, a new class of fluorescent proteins was discovered that can be reversibly light-switched between a fluorescent and a non-fluorescent state. Such proteins can not only provide nanoscale resolution in far-field fluorescence optical microscopy much below the diffraction limit, but also...
