FT-IR spectroscopy for study of protein structure and protein temperature behaviour RNDr. Jaroslav Turánek, CSc. Výzkumný ústav veterinárního lékařství Brno Farmakologický ústav LF MU
condensation reaction with amino acids (polymerization): Product: POLYPEPTIDE CHAIN Proteins Monomeric units of proteins: Amino acids The amino acid sequence is called: Primary Structure
ß-sheet:ordered in layers random coil: chain without periodic structure -helix:screwed structure Protein structure
random coil δ - helix υ - sheet FTIR for protein analysis Secondary Structure Determination Amid I : C=O stretching vibration... ...is sensitive to conformation
Investigation of proteins by FT-IR Secondary Structure Determination Blue: Hemoglobine 74 % α-helix 0 % -sheet Red: Concanavalin 46 % -sheet 0 % α-helix Just this single band (amide I) is used!!!
Problem: Protein 20 mg/ml • Absorption of water and water vapor mask the protein signal Wasser Protein Proteinspektrum Wasser Protein Proteinspektrum Wasser Water Protein Investigation of proteins by FT-IR requirements: • precise temperature (< 0,1K) • pathlength stability (< 0.1 % 7 nm) • sealed system
transmission cell: water soluble proteins protein library sensitive and sealed spectrometer bio-ATR: -membrane proteins - biomolecular interactions temperature control dedicated software Investigation of proteins by FT-IR CONFOCHECK
Why FT-IR spectroscopy ? Protein Analysis Structure (conformation) is correlated to function FT-IR spectroscopy is very sensitive to conformational changes !
CONFOCHECK: Applications 1) Fast determination of secondary structure 2) Detection of conformational changes (pH, temperature) 3) Monitoring of biomolecular interactions (protein-ligand binding) +
CONFOCHECK: Application • Determination of protein secondary structure • fast (within minutes!) • in native state (solution) • many buffer systemsallowed • low amount of protein required
CONFOCHECK: Conformational analysis Calibrated (PLS) Protein Spectra Library Secondary Structure Determination Blue 74 % α-helix 0 % -sheet Red 46 % -sheet 0 % α-helix
CONFOCHECK: Conformational analysis OPUS-Quant 2 for secondary structure determination - Helix content Regression coefficient R2 = 96,2 Error cross validation RMSECV = 4,24 - Sheet content Regression coefficient R2 = 95,1 Error cross validation RMSECV = 3,19 Conformations from unknown protein structures are predicted using PLS algorithm
CONFOCHECK: Protein library Information block Spectra search 30 proteins included
