Secondary structure, orientation, oligomerization, and lipid interactions of the transmembrane domain of influenza hemagglutinin.

TL;DR: The secondary structure, orientation, oligomerization, and lipid interactions of a synthetic peptide representing the transmembrane segment of X:31 HA (TMX31) by circular dichroism and attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and by gel electrophoresis are studied.

TL;DR: The helix content of the synthetic signal sequence fragments on the basis of CD measurements supports the secondary structure hypothesis described above, and the relative helicity in aqueous sodium dodecyl sulfate, lysolecithin, or trifluoroethanol is as follows.
Journal ArticleDOI

Deconvolution of the circular dichroism spectra of proteins: The circular dichroism spectra of the antiparallel β-sheet in proteins

TL;DR: The new pure component curves, which were obtained through deconvolution of the protein CD spectra alone, are promising candidates for determining the percentages of the secondary structural components in globular proteins without the necessity of adopting an X‐ray database.
Journal ArticleDOI

Conformational properties of four peptides spanning the sequence of hen lysozyme

TL;DR: It is suggested that the region 84-129 could play an important role in determining the nature of the early folding events in the folding pathway of the intact polypeptide chain.
Journal ArticleDOI

Synthesis of redox derivatives of lysine and their use in solid-phase synthesis of a light-harvesting peptide

TL;DR: In this article, the side chain e-amino group of Boc-l-lysine methyl ester or γ-carboxyl group was coupled to a redox moiety (transition-metal chromophore, electron donor, electron acceptor, metal ligand, or triplet-energy transmitter) using 4-(dimethylamino)pyridine, (1-benzotriazoleoxy)tris(dimethyamino)phosphonium hexafluorophosphate, N-methylmorpholine, and
