Conformational landscapes in amino acids: infrared and ultraviolet ion-dip spectroscopy of phenylalanine in the gas phase
TL;DR: In this article, a full structural assignment of the most stable conformers of phenylalanine, based upon a combination of ultraviolet and infrared ion-dip spectroscopy of the jet-cooled amino acid, coupled with high-level ab initio computation is presented for the first time.
Journal ArticleDOI
Conformational landscapes of aromatic amino acids in the gas phase : infrared and ultraviolet ion dip spectroscopy of tryptophan
TL;DR: The conformational structures of tryptophan, isolated in the gas phase, have been assigned by combining the results of ultraviolet hole-burning and infrared ion dip spectroscopy with the predictions of ab initio calculations conducted at the MP2/6-311 + G(d,p)//B3LYP/6 −31 + G (d) levels of theory as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
Hydrogen bonding and cooperativity in isolated and hydrated sugars: mannose, galactose, glucose, and lactose

TL;DR: The conformation of phenyl-substituted monosaccharides and their singly hydrated complexes is investigated in the gas phase by means of a combination of mass selected, conformer specific ultraviolet and infrared double resonance hole burning spectroscopy experiments, and ab initio quantum chemistry calculations.
Journal ArticleDOI
Infrared fingerprint spectroscopy and theoretical studies of potassium ion tagged amino acids and peptides in the gas phase.

TL;DR: Infrared multiple-photon dissociation spectroscopy is effected on the K(+) tagged aromatic amino acids tyrosine and phenylalanine, as well as the K (+) tagged peptides bradykinin fragment 1-5 and [Leu]-enkephalin to determine whether the complex is in the charge solvation (CS) or salt bridge (SB) configuration.
Journal ArticleDOI
A spectroscopic and computational exploration of tryptophan–water cluster structures in the gas phase
TL;DR: In this paper, mass-selected R2PI spectra of hydrated tryptophan clusters, generated through thermal evaporation into an expanding moist argon jet, have been recorded and analysed using ultra-violet hole-burn and infra-red ion dip spectroscopy, and interpreted in the light of a series of ab initio calculations for singly, doubly and triply hydrated structures.
