Principles Of Fluorescence Spectroscopy

Recent results continue to show the general consensus that ozone-related increases in UV-B radiation can negatively influence many aquatic species and aquatic ecosystems (e.g., lakes, rivers, marshes, oceans). Solar UV radiation penetrates to ecological significant depths in aquatic systems and can affect both marine and freshwater systems from major biomass producers (phytoplankton) to consumers (e.g., zooplankton, fish, etc.) higher in the food web. Many factors influence the depth of penetration of radiation into natural waters including dissolved organic compounds whose concentration and chemical composition are likely to be influenced by future climate and UV radiation variability. There is also considerable evidence that aquatic species utilize many mechanisms for photoprotection against excessive radiation. Often, these protective mechanisms pose conflicting selection pressures on species making UV radiation an additional stressor on the organism. It is at the ecosystem level where assessments of anthropogenic climate change and UV-related effects are interrelated and where much recent research has been directed. Several studies suggest that the influence of UV-B at the ecosystem level may be more pronounced on community and trophic level structure, and hence on subsequent biogeochemical cycles, than on biomass levels per se.

Effects of solar UV radiation on aquatic ecosystems and interactions with climate change

Redox reactions play important roles in almost all biological processes, including photosynthesis and respiration, which are two essential energy processes that sustain all life on earth. It is thus not surprising that biology employs redox-active metal ions in these processes. It is largely the redox activity that makes metal ions uniquely qualified as biological cofactors and makes bioinorganic enzymology both fun to explore and challenging to study.

Even though most metal ions are redox active, biology employs a surprisingly limited number of them for electron transfer (ET) processes. Prominent members of redox centers involved in ET processes include cytochromes, iron–sulfur clusters, and cupredoxins. Together these centers cover the whole range of reduction potentials in biology (Figure ​(Figure1).1). Because of their importance, general reviews about redox centers1−77 and specific reviews about cytochromes,8,24,78−90 iron–sulfur proteins,91−93 and cupredoxins94−104 have appeared in the literature. In this review, we provide both classification and description of each member of the above redox centers, including both native and designed proteins, as well as those proteins that contain a combination of these redox centers. Through this review, we examine structural features responsible for their redox properties, including knowledge gained from recent progress in fine-tuning the redox centers. Computational studies such as DFT calculations become more and more important in understanding the structure–function relationship and facilitating the fine-tuning of the ET properties and reduction potentials of metallocofactors in proteins. Since this aspect has been reviewed extensively before,105−110 and by other reviews in this thematic issue,2000,2001,2002 it will not be covered here.

Thiazole Schiff bases 2-(4-phenyl-1,3-thiazol-2-yliminomethyl)phenol (L 1 ) and 1-(4-phenyl-1,3-thiazol-2-yliminomethyl)naphthalen-2-ol (L 2 ) have synthesized and characterized. The interaction of Schiff bases with different metal ions has been studied over UV–vis absorption spectra and photofluorescent spectra. The results are indicated that Schiff base L 1 and L 2 exhibited turn-on fluorescent behavior with Al 3+ ions in methanol, which could be directly detected by the naked-eye under the UV-lamp. The limits of detection were calculated for L 1 and L 2 since 1.0 × 10 −6 and 7.5 × 10 −7 by the titration method. Both sensors exhibited excellent fluorescent behavior in 5.0–13.5 pH range. The fluorescent behavior of legends-aluminum complex solution goes to turn-off in the presence of Ni 2+ and EDTA.

The DNA-binding properties and DNA-cleavage activities of a Cu(II) complex, [Cu(sal-tau(phen)]·1.5H2O (sal-tau=a Schiff base derived from salicylaldehyde and taurine, phen=1,10-phenanthroline), have been investigated by using UV-Vis absorption, fluorescence, circular dichroism (CD) spectra and agarose gel electrophoresis. Results indicated that this Cu(II) complex can bind to calf thymus DNA (CT-DNA) via an intercalative mode and shows efficient cleavage activity in the absence and presence of reducer. Its intrinsic binding constant Kb (1.66×10(4)M(-1)) was calculated by absorption spectra and its linear Stern-Volmer quenching constant K(sq) (3.05) was obtained from florescence spectroscopy, as well as the cleaving reaction rate constant k1 (2.0×10(-4)s(-1)) was acquired from agarose gel electrophoresis. Meanwhile, the interactions of the complex with BSA have also been studied by spectroscopy. Results showed that the complex could quench the intrinsic fluorescence of bovine serum albumin (BSA) remarkably through a static quenching process, and induce a conformational change with the loss of helical stability of protein.

In this work, mycosporine-like amino acids (MAAs) of Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 were characterized and were investigated on UV induction and protective ability. High performance liquid chromatographic (HPLC) studies revealed three major compounds in the MAAs. By UV absorption and mass spectra analysis, one of the compounds was tentatively identified as mycosporine-tau (M-tau). One novel compound similar to usujirene was tentatively named as dehydroxylusujirene, and the other novel compound was named as M-343 according to its absorption maximum. In vivo experiments indicated that M-tau was induced by both UV-A and UV-B, while dehydroxylusujirene and M-343 were only induced by UV-A, suggesting that different chromophores were involved in MAAs synthesis in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803. It was also indicated that M-343 could be photochemically synthesized from some precursors. Under both UV and oxidation stresses, M-343 was more stable than dehydroxylusujirene and M-tau. Considering the reaction with H2O2, M-tau and dehydroxylusujirene might be potential antioxidants in reaction with physiological reactive oxygen species in vivo. In protection experiments, the MAAs exhibited efficient protective ability towards UV-B and H2O2 stresses, with maximal protection rates of 30% and 21.5%, respectively. These results indicate that the MAAs in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 act as both UV-screen and antioxidant.

Two hexacoordinated octahedral nickel(II) complexes, [Ni(o-van-gln)(phen)(H2O)](1) and [Ni(sal-gln)(phen)(H2O)](2) [o-van-gln=a Schiff base derived from o-vanillin and glutamine, sal-gln=a Schiff base derived from salicylaldehyde and glutamine, phen=1,10-phenanthroline], have been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, IR spectra and single crystal X-ray diffraction. X-ray studies showed that nickel atoms of both 1 and 2 exhibit distorted NiN3O3 octahedral geometry. In each crystal, intermolecular hydrogen bonds form a two-dimensional network structure. DNA-binding properties of these two nickel(II) complexes were investigated by using UV-Vis absorption, fluorescence, circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopies and viscosity measurements. Results indicated that the two complexes can bind to calf thymus DNA (CT-DNA) via an intercalative mode, and complex 1 exhibits higher interaction with CT-DNA than complex 2. Furthermore, the interactions between the nickel(II) complexes with bovine serum albumin (BSA) have been studied by spectroscopies. The results indicated that both complexes could quench the intrinsic fluorescence of BSA in a static quenching process. The binding constants (Kb) and the numbers of binding sites (n) obtained are 1.10×10(5)M(-1) and 1.05 for complex 1 and 5.05×10(4)M(-1) and 0.997 for complex 2, respectively. Site-selective competitive binding investigation indicated that the binding sites of both the complexes are located in site I of sub-domains IIA of BSA. Assay of superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity of the nickel(II) complexes revealed that they exhibit significant superoxide scavenging activity with IC50=3.4×10(-5)M for complex 1 and 4.3×10(-5)M for complex 2, respectively.

Platinum phenanthroline complexes inhibit amyloid-β (Aβ) aggregation and reduce Aβ-caused neurotoxicity [Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci., 2008, 105, 6813-6818]. In this study, we investigated the interactions of Aβ(1-16) with [PtCl(2)(phen)] (phen=1,10-phenanthroline) using HPLC, ESI-MS, and NMR spectroscopy , and characterized the identity of products using tandem mass spectrometry. Results indicated that the phenanthroline ligand could induce noncovalent interactions between Aβ peptide and platinum complexes, leading to rapid Aβ platination. Multiple products were generated in the reaction, in which His6/His14 chelation was preferentially formed. Coordination of Asp7, His13, and Lys16 was also detected in other products. The majority of products were monoplatinated adducts with binding of the {Pt(phen)} scaffold, which impeded intermolecular interactions between Aβ peptides. Moreover, noncovalent interactions were confirmed by the interaction between Aβ peptide and [Pt(phen)(2)]Cl(2). The synergistic roles of the phen ligand and platinum(II) atom in the inhibition of Aβ aggregation are discussed.
