Monitoring the Disassembly of Virus-like Particles by 19F-NMR
Virus-like particles (VLPs) are stable protein cages derived from virus coats. They have been used extensively as biomolecular platforms, e.g., nanocarriers or vaccines, but a convenient in situ technique is lacking for tracking functional status. Here, we present a simple way to monitor disassembly of 19F-labeled VLPs derived from bacteriophage Qβ by 19F NMR. Analysis of resonances, under a ra...
متن کاملSimultaneous Detection of Distinct Ubiquitin Chain Topologies by 19F NMR
The dynamic interplay between ubiquitin (Ub) chain construction and destruction is critical for the regulation of many cellular pathways. To understand these processes, it would be ideal to simultaneously detect different Ub chains as they are created and destroyed in the cell. This objective cannot be achieved with existing detection strategies. Here, we report on the use of 19F Nuclear Magnet...
متن کاملUsing O2 to probe membrane immersion depth by 19F NMR.
A fluorinated detergent, CF(3)(CF(2))(5)C(2)H(4)-O-maltose, was reconstituted into a lipid bilayer model membrane system to demonstrate the feasibility of determining solvent accessibility and membrane immersion depth of each fluorinated group by (19)F NMR. Apolar oxygen, which is known to partition with an increasing concentration gradient toward the hydrophobic membrane interior, exhibits a r...
متن کاملMeasurement of cytosolic calcium using 19F NMR.
Fluorine-19 nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) studies of cells and perfused organs loaded with fluorinated ion chelators represent a new approach to determining cytosolic free calcium levels in situ. The molecular basis for this approach and the relative advantages and disadvantages of the NMR technique are discussed in this paper. Results obtained on perfused normoxic and ischemic rat hearts ar...
متن کاملMonitoring of duplex and triplex formation by 19F NMR using oligodeoxynucleotides possessing 5-fluorodeoxyuridine unit as 19F signal transmitter.
We prepared oligodeoxynucleotides (ODNs) possessing a 5-fluorodeoxyuridine (5-FU) unit as a 19F-signal transmitter, and characterized their structures including single strand, duplex, and triplex using 19F NMR. The change in chemical shift induced by incorporation of 5-FU into the ODNs and the formation of higher order structures allowed monitoring of structural changes. Data from UV melting ex...
