Internal electron transfer between hemes and Cu(II) bound at cysteine beta93 promotes methemoglobin reduction by carbon monoxide. (1/6162)

Previous studies showed that CO/H2O oxidation provides electrons to drive the reduction of oxidized hemoglobin (metHb). We report here that Cu(II) addition accelerates the rate of metHb beta chain reduction by CO by a factor of about 1000. A mechanism whereby electron transfer occurs via an internal pathway coupling CO/H2O oxidation to Fe(III) and Cu(II) reduction is suggested by the observation that the copper-induced rate enhancement is inhibited by blocking Cys-beta93 with N-ethylmaleimide. Furthermore, this internal electron-transfer pathway is more readily established at low Cu(II) concentrations in Hb Deer Lodge (beta2His --> Arg) and other species lacking His-beta2 than in Hb A0. This difference is consistent with preferential binding of Cu(II) in Hb A0 to a high affinity site involving His-beta2, which is ineffective in promoting electron exchange between Cu(II) and the beta heme iron. Effective electron transfer is thus affected by Hb type but is not governed by the R left arrow over right arrow T conformational equilibrium. The beta hemes in Cu(II)-metHb are reduced under CO at rates close to those observed for cytochrome c oxidase, where heme and copper are present together in the oxygen-binding site and where internal electron transfer also occurs.  (+info)

The role of proline and glycine in determining the backbone flexibility of a channel-forming peptide. (2/6162)

Alamethicin is a helical 20-amino acid voltage-gated channel-forming peptide, which is known to exhibit segmental flexibility in solution along its backbone near alpha-methylalanine (MeA)-10 and Gly-11. In an alpha-helical configuration, MeA at position 10 would normally hydrogen-bond with position 14, but the presence of proline at this position prevents the formation of this interhelical hydrogen bond. To determine whether the presence of proline at position 14 contributes to the flexibility of this helix, two analogs of alamethicin were synthesized, one with proline 14 replaced by alanine and another with both proline 14 and glycine 11 replaced by alanine. The C-termini of these peptides were derivatized with a proxyl nitroxide, and paramagnetic enhancements produced by the nitroxide on the Calpha protons were used to estimate r-6 weighted distances between the nitroxide and the backbone protons. When compared to native alamethicin, the analog lacking proline 14 exhibited similar C-terminal to Calpha proton distances, indicating that substitution of proline alone does not alter the flexibility of this helix; however, the subsequent removal of glycine 11 resulted in a significant increase in the averaged distances between the C- and N-termini. Thus, the G-X-X-P motif found in alamethicin appears to be largely responsible for mediating high-amplitude bending motions that have been observed in the central helical domain of alamethicin in methanol. To determine whether these substitutions alter the channel behavior of alamethicin, the macroscopic and single-channel currents produced by these analogs were compared. Although the substitution of the G-X-X-P motif produces channels with altered characteristics, this motif is not essential to achieve voltage-dependent gating or alamethicin-like behavior.  (+info)

Copper binding to the prion protein: structural implications of four identical cooperative binding sites. (3/6162)

Evidence is growing to support a functional role for the prion protein (PrP) in copper metabolism. Copper ions appear to bind to the protein in a highly conserved octapeptide repeat region (sequence PHGGGWGQ) near the N terminus. To delineate the site and mode of binding of Cu(II) to the PrP, the copper-binding properties of peptides of varying lengths corresponding to 2-, 3-, and 4-octarepeat sequences have been probed by using various spectroscopic techniques. A two-octarepeat peptide binds a single Cu(II) ion with Kd approximately 6 microM whereas a four-octarepeat peptide cooperatively binds four Cu(II) ions. Circular dichroism spectra indicate a distinctive structuring of the octarepeat region on Cu(II) binding. Visible absorption, visible circular dichroism, and electron spin resonance spectra suggest that the coordination sphere of the copper is identical for 2, 3, or 4 octarepeats, consisting of a square-planar geometry with three nitrogen ligands and one oxygen ligand. Consistent with the pH dependence of Cu(II) binding, proton NMR spectroscopy indicates that the histidine residues in each octarepeat are coordinated to the Cu(II) ion. Our working model for the structure of the complex shows the histidine residues in successive octarepeats bridged between two copper ions, with both the Nepsilon2 and Ndelta1 imidazole nitrogen of each histidine residue coordinated and the remaining coordination sites occupied by a backbone amide nitrogen and a water molecule. This arrangement accounts for the cooperative nature of complex formation and for the apparent evolutionary requirement for four octarepeats in the PrP.  (+info)

A functional model for O-O bond formation by the O2-evolving complex in photosystem II. (4/6162)

The formation of molecular oxygen from water in photosynthesis is catalyzed by photosystem II at an active site containing four manganese ions that are arranged in di-mu-oxo dimanganese units (where mu is a bridging mode). The complex [H2O(terpy)Mn(O)2Mn(terpy)OH2](NO3)3 (terpy is 2,2':6', 2"-terpyridine), which was synthesized and structurally characterized, contains a di-mu-oxo manganese dimer and catalyzes the conversion of sodium hypochlorite to molecular oxygen. Oxygen-18 isotope labeling showed that water is the source of the oxygen atoms in the molecular oxygen evolved, and so this system is a functional model for photosynthetic water oxidation.  (+info)

Chlamydomonas chloroplast ferrous hemoglobin. Heme pocket structure and reactions with ligands. (5/6162)

We report the optical and resonance Raman spectral characterization of ferrous recombinant Chlamydomonas LI637 hemoglobin. We show that it is present in three pH-dependent equilibrium forms including a 4-coordinate species at acid pH, a 5-coordinate high spin species at neutral pH, and a 6-coordinate low spin species at alkaline pH. The proximal ligand to the heme is the imidazole group of a histidine. Kinetics of the reactions with ligands were determined by stopped-flow spectroscopy. At alkaline pH, combination with oxygen, nitric oxide, and carbon monoxide displays a kinetic behavior that is interpreted as being rate-limited by conversion of the 6-coordinate form to a reactive 5-coordinate form. At neutral pH, combination rates of the 5-coordinate form with oxygen and carbon monoxide were much faster (>10(7) microM-1 s-1). The dissociation rate constant measured for oxygen is among the slowest known, 0.014 s-1, and is independent of pH. Replacement of the tyrosine 63 (B10) by leucine or of the putative distal glutamine by glycine increases the dissociation rate constant 70- and 30-fold and increases the rate of autoxidation 20- and 90-fold, respectively. These results are consistent with at least two hydrogen bonds stabilizing the bound oxygen molecule, one from tyrosine B10 and the other from the distal glutamine. In addition, the high frequency (232 cm-1) of the iron-histidine bond suggests a structure that lacks any proximal strain thus contributing to high ligand affinity.  (+info)

Binding of Cob(II)alamin to the adenosylcobalamin-dependent ribonucleotide reductase from Lactobacillus leichmannii. Identification of dimethylbenzimidazole as the axial ligand. (6/6162)

The ribonucleoside triphosphate reductase (RTPR) from Lactobacillus leichmannii catalyzes the reduction of nucleoside 5'-triphosphates to 2'-deoxynucleoside 5'-triphosphates and uses coenzyme B12, adenosylcobalamin (AdoCbl), as a cofactor. Use of a mechanism-based inhibitor, 2'-deoxy-2'-methylenecytidine 5'-triphosphate, and isotopically labeled RTPR and AdoCbl in conjunction with EPR spectroscopy has allowed identification of the lower axial ligand of cob(II)alamin when bound to RTPR. In common with the AdoCbl-dependent enzymes catalyzing irreversible heteroatom migrations and in contrast to the enzymes catalyzing reversible carbon skeleton rearrangements, the dimethylbenzimidazole moiety of the cofactor is not displaced by a protein histidine upon binding to RTPR.  (+info)

EPR spectroscopy of VO2+-ATP bound to catalytic site 3 of chloroplast F1-ATPase from Chlamydomonas reveals changes in metal ligation resulting from mutations to the phosphate-binding loop threonine (betaT168). (7/6162)

Site-directed mutations were made to the phosphate-binding loop threonine in the beta-subunit of the chloroplast F1-ATPase in Chlamydomonas (betaT168). Rates of photophosphorylation and ATPase-driven proton translocation measured in coupled thylakoids purified from betaT168D, betaT168C, and betaT168L mutants had <10% of the wild type rates, as did rates of Mg2+-ATPase activity of purified chloroplast F1-ATPase (CF1). The EPR spectra of VO2+-ATP bound to Site 3 of CF1 from wild type and mutants showed that EPR species C, formed exclusively upon activation, was altered in CF1 from each mutant in both signal intensity and in 51V hyperfine parameters that depend on the equatorial VO2+ ligands. These data provide the first direct evidence that Site 3 is a catalytic site. No significant differences between wild type and mutants were observed in EPR species B, the predominant form of the latent enzyme. Thus, the phosphate-binding loop threonine is an equatorial metal ligand in the activated conformation but not in the latent conformation of Site 3. The metal-nucleotide conformation that gives rise to species B is consistent with the Mg2+-ADP complex that becomes entrapped in a catalytic site in a manner that regulates enzymatic activity. The lack of catalytic function of CF1 with entrapped Mg2+-ADP may be explained in part by the absence of the phosphate-binding loop threonine as a metal ligand.  (+info)

Evidence for the head domain movement of the rieske iron-sulfur protein in electron transfer reaction of the cytochrome bc1 complex. (8/6162)

The three-dimensional structure of the mitochondrial cytochrome bc1 complex suggests that movement of the extramembrane domain (head) of the Rieske iron-sulfur protein (ISP) may play an important role in electron transfer. Such movement requires flexibility in the neck region of ISP, since the head and transmembrane domains of the protein are rather rigid. To test this hypothesis, Rhodobacter sphaeroides mutants expressing His-tagged cytochrome bc1 complexes with cysteine substitution at various positions in the ISP neck (residues 39-48) were generated and characterized. The mutants with a single cysteine substitution at Ala42 or Val44 and a double cysteine substitution at Val44 and Ala46 (VQA-CQC) or at Ala42 and Ala46 (ADVQA-CDVQC) have photosynthetic growth rates comparable with that of complement cells. Chromatophore membrane and intracytoplasmic membrane (ICM) prepared from these mutants have cytochrome bc1 complex activity similar to that in the complement membranes, indicating that flexibility of the neck region of ISP was not affected by these cysteine substitutions. Mutants with a double cysteine substitution at Ala42 and Val44 (ADV-CDC) or at Pro40 and Ala42 (PSA-CSC) have a retarded (50%) or no photosynthetic growth rate, respectively. The ADV-CDC or PSA-CSC mutant ICM contains 20 or 0% of the cytochrome bc1 complex activity found in the complement ICM. However, activity can be restored by the treatment with beta-mercaptoethanol (beta-ME). The restored activity is diminished upon removal of beta-ME but is retained if the beta-ME-treated membrane is treated with the sulfhydryl reagent N-ethylmaleimide or p-chloromercuribenzoic acid. These results indicate that the loss of bc1 complex activity in the ADV-CDC or PSA-CSC mutant membranes is due to disulfide bond formation, which increases the rigidity of ISP neck and, in turn, decreases the mobility of the head domain. Using the conditions developed for the isolation of His-tagged complement cytochrome bc1 complex, a two-subunit complex (cytochromes b and c1) is obtained from all of the double cysteine-substituted mutants. This suggests that introduction of two cysteines in the neck region of ISP weakens the interactions between cytochromes b, ISP, and subunit IV.  (+info)

Реферат: Electron spin−echo envelope modulation (ESEEM) spectroscopy of phospholipids spin-labeled systematically down the sn-2 chain was used to detect the penetration of water (D2O) into bilayer membranes of dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine with and without 50 mol % cholesterol. Three-pulse stimulated echoes allow the resolution of two superimposed 2H-ESEEM spectral components of different widths, for spin labels located in the upper part of the lipid chains. Quantum chemical calculations (DFT) and ESEEM simulations assign the broad spectral component to one or two D2O molecules that are directly hydrogen bonded to the N−O group of the spin label. Classical ESEEM simulations establish that the narrow spectral component arises from nonbonded water (D2O) molecules that are free in the hydrocarbon chain region of the bilayer membrane. The amplitudes of the broad 2H-ESEEM spectral component correlate directly with those of the narrow component for spin labels at different positions down ...
Rainer Grün. This will be achieved by looking for the spin … Electron spin resonance (ESR) is a spectroscopic technique that detects the transitions induced by electromagnetic radiation between the energy levels of electron spins in the presence of a static magnetic field. Uhlenbeck, in 1925, recommended that an electron has an inherent angular momentum that is a magnetic moment that is recognized as spin.In atomic physics, the inherent angular momentum of a particular particle is parametrized by spin quantum number. ESR only works with unpaired electrons, though, not the usual paired electrons of molecules. Energy-level Diagram For Two Spin States as a Function of Applied Field B. For electron spin resonance (ESR) studies, we obtained solvent-extractable free radicals from 1,3-butadiene soot from brief liquid-solid extractions with ultra-pure toluene, DMSO:water (4:1, v/v), n-hexane, and 3% aqueous sodium dodecyl sulfate. electron spin resonance synonyms, electron spin resonance ...

In atomic physics, hyperfine structure refers to small shifts and splittings in the energy levels of atoms, molecules, and ions, due to interaction between the state of the nucleus and the state of the electron clouds. In atoms, hyperfine structure arises from the energy of the nuclear magnetic dipole moment interacting with the magnetic field generated by the electrons and the energy of the nuclear electric quadrupole moment in the electric field gradient due to the distribution of charge within the atom. Molecular hyperfine structure is generally dominated by these two effects, but also includes the energy associated with the interaction between the magnetic moments associated with different magnetic nuclei in a molecule, as well as between the nuclear magnetic moments and the magnetic field generated by the rotation of the molecule. Hyperfine structure contrasts with fine structure, which results from the interaction between the magnetic moments associated with electron spin and the ...

The ultimate ambition of this project is to perform an EMR study of radiation-induced radicals on DNA samples, comparably successful as for sucrose. This would provide the most direct way to determine the precise role of sugar radicals in radiation damage to DNA. Mainly because of the lack of DNA single crystals (DNA fibers are only partially oriented), literature studies have so far been restricted to EPR studies of polycrystalline or frozen solution DNA, with high risk of erroneous conclusions based only on isotropic parameters, as the UGent group demonstrated recently for trehalose . This could be avoided if information on the anisotropy of g and hyperfine tensors is collected for confrontation with DFT calculations. Therefore we are exploring the possibilities of powder ENDOR (and/or pulsed EPR), first on DNA-related materials and later in the project on DNA. It is known, but still remarkable that anisotropic information can be retrieved from powder materials exploiting the orientation ...

The electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) parameters (g factors g parallel, g perpendicular and hyperfine structure constants A parallel, A perpendicular) for Co2+ ions in LiNbO3 and LiTaO3 crystals are calculated from the second-order perturbation formulas based on the cluster approach for 3d7 ions in trigonal octahedral clusters. Application of a magnetic field gives the following spin Hamiltonian for the system. To describe the theory of parallel mode EPR we must first define the system that we wish to characterize. An example of a parallel mode EPR spectrum of a high spin (S=2) Fe(IV)-oxo compound, measured by Hendrich and coworkers at Pennsylvania State University, is shown in ...

SEUNG‐JAE … The ESR spectroscopy has been used to estimate polynuclear hydrocarbons, which are first, converted in to radical cations and then absorbed in the surface of an activated silica-alumina catalyst. An intense external magnetic field produces a difference between the energy levels of the electron spins m s = + ½ and m s = - ½, leading to resonance absorption of an applied microwave beam in the spectrometer. Electron Spin resonance spectroscopy is based on the absorption of microwave radiation by an unpaired electron when it is exposed to a strong magnetic field.

Synthetically useful hydrocarbon oxidations are catalysed by bio-inspired non-heme iron complexes using hydrogen peroxide as oxidant, and carboxylic acid addition enhances their selectivity and catalytic efficiency. Talsi has identified a low-intensity g = 2.7 electron paramagnetic resonance signal in such catalytic systems and attributed it to an oxoiron(V)-carboxylate oxidant. Herein we report the use of Fe-II(TPA(star)) (TPA(star) = tris (3,5-dimethyl-4-methoxypyridyl-2-methyl)amine) to generate this intermediate in 50% yield, and have characterized it by ultraviolet-visible, resonance Raman, Mossbauer and electrospray ionization mass spectrometric methods as a low-spin acylperoxoiron(III) species. Kinetic studies show that this intermediate is not itself the oxidant but decays via a unimolecular rate-determining step to unmask a powerful oxidant. The latter is shown by density functional theory calculations to be an oxoiron(V) species that oxidises substrate without a barrier. This study ...
The magnetic and electronic properties of heavily doped n-type 6H SiC samples with a nitrogen concentration of 10{sup 19} and 4 × 10{sup 19 }cm{sup −3} were studied with electron spin resonance (ESR) at 5-150 K. The observed ESR line with a Dysonian lineshape was attributed to the conduction electrons (CE). The CE ESR (CESR) line was fitted by Lorentzian (insulating phase) (T , 40 K) and by Dysonian lineshape (metallic phase) above 40 K, demonstrating that Mott insulator-metal (IM) transition takes place at ∼40 K, accompanied by significant change in the microwave conductivity. The temperature dependence of CESR linewidth follows the linear Korringa law below 40 K, caused by the coupling of the localized electrons (LE) and CE, and is described by the exponential law above 40 K related to the direct relaxation of the LE magnetic moments via excited levels driven by the exchange interaction of LE with CE. The g-factor of the CESR line (g{sub ‖} = 2.0047(3), g{sub ⊥} = 2.0034(3)) is ...
Cytotoxic effects of daunomycin were investigated upon differentiation of Friend erythroleukemia cells induced with hexamethylene bisacetamide, a process during which a 20-fold increase in the hemoglobin content occurred. Daunomycin proved to be more toxic to differentiated Friend cells than to their undifferentiated counterparts. No changes in the daunomycin uptake rates of the two cell types were detectable. Externally added catalase and desferrioxamine mesylate protected against the additional cytotoxicity of daunomycin in differentiated cells, pointing to hydrogen peroxide and iron ions as mediators of the toxic effect. Daunomycin-dependent, cyanide-insensitive oxygen consumption of control and induced cells did not differ significantly, and the rate of formation of the daunomycin semiquinone radical electron paramagnetic resonance signal was similar in both cell types, indicating that the difference in toxicity was not due to increased drug activation by plasma membrane enzymes. ...

Nitric oxide (NO) production in the regenerating liver was estimated from the intensity of the electron paramagnetic resonance signal of the mononitrosyl complexes of iron and diethylthiocarbamate (DETC). Preformed complexes of intracellular non-heme Fe2+ and added DETC served as a trap for endogeneously produced NO. The data revealed dynamic changes of NO production temporally connected with the time periodicity of the liver regeneration. The first increase of NO production occurred ca. 1 h after partial hepatectomy (PHE) coinciding with the rapid response of the liver to injury. The second more pronounced production of NO was observed about 6 h after PHE, when the hepa-tocytes entered the first cell cycle, and originated mainly from them. The following minimum of NO synthesis coincided with the maximal rate of DNA synthesis. The third gradual rise of NO production was seen at the end of the investigated period, covering G2+M phases and the transit from the first to the second cell cycle of the ...

en] The C-phenyl-N-tert-butylnitrone/azobisisobutyronitrile pair is able to impart control to the radical polymerization of n-butyl acrylate as long as a two-step process is implemented, that is, the prereaction of the nitrone and the initiator in toluene at 85 degrees C for 4 h followed by the addition and polymerization of n-butyl acrylate at 110 degrees C. The structure of the in situ formed nitroxide has been established from kinetic and electron spin resonance data. The key parameters (the dissociation rate constant, combination rate constant, and equilibrium constant) that govern the process have been evaluated. The equilibrium constant between the dormant and active species is close to 1.6 x 10(-12) mol L-1 at 110 degrees C. The dissociation rate constant and the activation energy for the C-ON bond homolysis are 1.9 x 10(-3) s(-1) and 122 +/- 15 kJ mol(-1), respectively.

One hundred and forty-one patients operatively treated for colorectal cancer were included in the examination, and 180 healthy people were also enrolled as controls. Commercial 16-doxyl stearic acid was used as spin probe. Serum albumin was analyzed by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) with spin probe. Discriminant analysis was carried out using the measured EPR spectra by SPSS 20.0. Of the original grouped cases, 89.4% were correctly classified. Of the
However, electron spins have yet to be used in realistic electronic devices except as part of magnetic devices for information storage. The reason is that spin polarization in a semiconductor is easily randomized, and consequently, it is difficult to transport spin polarization over a long distance.. An electron spin itself is a quantum spin angular momentum. Electrical transport and the manipulation of spin polarization are essential technologies if electron spins are to be employed in a device.. However, in actual materials, electron spins are randomized by the multiple scattering of electrons, resulting in spin depolarization in finite time. This phenomenon is called spin relaxation, and it results in spin polarization having a short transport length in a device. To realize spin functional devices, it is important to suppress spin relaxation and achieve more stable manipulation of electron spins.. The research team has demonstrated long-distance spin transport by electrical means in a ...

The heterogeneous oxidation of some substituted phenols has been studied by means of electron spin resonance. Strong signals, observed during the oxidation of the phenols with a free para-position, are due to secondary radicals derived from C4-O linked dimeric and polymeric phenols (A) are not to substituted 4, 4-di-pheno-semiquinones (B). Special attention has been given to the oxidation of 2, 6-dimethylphenol which yields a radical with non-equivalent methyl groups. The e. s. r. spectra of the secondary radicals from some 4-substituted 2, 6-dimethylphenol are identical to each other and to that from 2, 6-dimethylphenol itself. This indicates that in these radicals the para-substituent had been displaced by an aryloxy group. The ease of this displacement can be determined by use of the flow technique. ...

Magnetic Resonance Imaging of Tumor Physiology. Characterizing tumors and related pathological conditions on a physiologic basis by noninvasive radiological techniques is a potentially useful capability for diagnosis as well as for devising appropriate cancer treatment approaches. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a commonly used clinical imaging procedure that provides images of soft tissue anatomy with excellent detail. Recent advances have made it possible to provide functional information such as brain function using functional MRI (fMRI) techniques. To obtain physiological information such as oxygen or tissue redox stats in pathological situations such as solid tumors or ischemic/hypoxic tissue, quantitatively and noninvasively, we are developing imaging techniques based on electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR). EPR is similar to nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) in many ways. NMR probes nuclei such as 1H, 13C, and 31P, while EPR detects paramagnetic species. Paramagnetic species by ...

Four heteroleptic copper(I) complexes containing phenanthroline and monoanionic nido-carborane-diphosphine ligands have been prepared and structurally characterized by various spectroscopic techniques and X-ray diffraction. These complexes exhibit intense absorptions in the visible range and excited-state lifetimes on the microsecond scale. Their application in visible-light-induced cross-dehydrogenative coupling reactions was investigated. Preliminary studies showed that one of the four copper(I) complexes is an efficient catalyst for photoinduced oxidative C[BOND]H functionalization using oxygen as oxidant. Furthermore, α-functionalized tertiary amines were obtained in good-to-excellent yields by light irradiation (λ>420 nm) of a mixture of our CuI complex, tertiary amines, and a variety of nucleophiles (nitroalkane, acetone, or indoles) under aerobic conditions. Electron paramagnetic resonance measurements provided evidence for the formation of superoxide radical anions (O2−⋅) rather ...
In the last few years, fast arbitrary waveform generates (AWGs) have become commercially available in the field of electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR). Pairing AWGs with local oscillator devices gives access to frequency and amplitude modulated microwave pulses and sufficiently broadband digitizers exist for appropriate detection. But replacing monochromatic rectangular pulses with frequency and amplitude modulated pulses is not an innocent procedure. Compared to the one during monochromatic rectangular pulse, spin dynamics during frequency-swept pulses is fundamentally different and as a consequence routine experiments can lead to surprising new results. Although passage pulses are well known and studied in nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, their effects are far from being fully understood in EPR spectroscopy. In response to the need of a way to simulate pulse EPR experiments with frequency swept-pulses, the open-source spin dynamics analysis (SPIDYAN) toolbox, which runs in ...

We combine inorganic synthesis, chemical biology and spectroscopy to relate the structures of metal centres to reactivity. Many of the systems we study are paramagnetic, and we use electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and electron-nuclear double resonance (ENDOR) to study paramagnetic metal centres and radical chemistry. We also use NMR extensively to characterise diamagnetic species produced by redox processes, and to study reaction products and kinetics in catalytic systems. These methods are supplemented by DFT calculations of molecular properties and spectroscopic parameters. ...

Turkish pink shrimp (Parapenaeus longirostris) samples were studied by electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy for identification and dose assessment purposes. In this work, the calcified shells of shrimps were used as a sample material. Before irradiation, all shrimp shell samples exhibit one weak ESR singlet with a g-factor of 2.0047. After irradiation, all samples exhibit two asymmetric ESR signal components centered at g-values of 2.0013 and 1.9959. The dose-response curves of the samples exposed to gamma radiations were found to be described well by a single saturation exponential function. Variation of ESR signal intensity of irradiated samples at room and-20 degrees C temperatures with time in a long-term showed that free radicals responsible from the ESR spectrum of shrimp shells were not stable but still detectable after 87 days. Also, the kinetic behavior of signal at g=2.0013 was studied and the additive dose method was used to evaluate the dose in the product. ...

Nitric oxide (NO) has been used as a substrate analog to explore the structural and electronic determinants of enzymatic superoxide reduction at the mononuclear iron active site of Pyrococcus furiosus superoxide reductase (SOR) through the use of EPR, resonance Raman, Fourier transform IR, UV-visible absorption, and variable-temperature variable-field magnetic CD spectroscopies. The NO adduct of reduced SOR is shown to have a near-axial S = 3/2 ground state with E/D = 0.06 and D = 12 ± 2 cm-1 (where D and E are the axial and rhombic zero-field splitting parameters, respectively) and the UV-visible absorption and magnetic CD spectra are dominated by an out-of-plane NO-(π*)-to-Fe3+(dπ) charge-transfer transition, polarized along the zero-field splitting axis. Resonance Raman studies indicate that the NO adduct is six-coordinate with NO ligated in a bent conformation trans to the cysteinyl S, as evidenced by the identification of v(N-O) at 1,721 cm-1, v(Fe-NO) at 475 cm-1, and v(Fe-S(Cys), at
As noted in the Introduction, the role of NO in epileptogenesis is unclear. NO has been suggested to be both an anticonvulsant and a proconvulsant in animals (9, 10, 12-16). These inconsistencies may be due to the fact that although these studies measured the effects of NOS inhibitors, they did not actually measure NO production. The advantage of the current L-band EPR study is that we can make direct NO measurements by detecting it as the (DETC)2-Fe-NO complex in the brain of living mice. We were able to confirm that NO levels are elevated in tonic and clonic convulsions.. Both the in vivo and ex vivo EPR measurements confirmed that more NO was produced in the tonic than in the clonic convulsions, perhaps indicating that NO levels were proportional to the intensity of the convulsion. These results suggest that NO works as a proconvulsant. However, in the presence of NOS inhibitors, both L-NNA and 3Br-7NI suppressed the transition from clonic to tonic convulsion at high PTZ doses, while the ...
Dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP)[1][2][3] results from transferring spin polarization from electrons to nuclei, thereby aligning the nuclear spins to the extent that electron spins are aligned. Note that the alignment of electron spins at a given magnetic field and temperature is described by the Boltzmann distribution under the thermal equilibrium. It is also possible that those electrons are aligned to a higher degree of order by other preparations of electron spin order such as: chemical reactions (leading to Chemical-Induced DNP, CIDNP), optical pumping and spin injection. DNP is considered one of several techniques for hyperpolarization. DNP can also be induced using unpaired electrons produced by radiation damage in solids.[4][5] When electron spin polarization deviates from its thermal equilibrium value, polarization transfers between electrons and nuclei can occur spontaneously through electron-nuclear cross relaxation and/or spin-state mixing among electrons and nuclei. For example, ...
