| Abstract | Nanosecond fluorescence polarization anisotropy decay is used to determine the effect of the bacteriophage M13 coat protein on lipid bilayer acyl chain dynamics and order. The fluorescent acyl chain analogues cis- and trans-parinaric acid were used to determine the rate and extent of the angular motion of acyl chains in liquid crystalline (39 degrees C) dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine bilayers free of coat protein or containing the coat protein at a protein:lipid ratio of 1:30. Subnanosecond time resolution was obtained by using synchrotron radiation as the excitation source for single photon counting detection. Previous measurements of Förster energy transfer from coat protein tryptophan to cis- or trans-parinaric acid have shown that these probes are randomly distributed in the bilayer with respect to the protein. The anisotropy decay observed for pure bilayers has the form of a rapid drop, followed by a nonzero constant region extending from roughly 3 ns to at least 12 ns. The magnitude of the anisotropy in the plateau region is simply related to the acyl chain order parameter. The effect of the M13 coat protein is to increase the acyl chain order parameter significantly while having only a small effect on the rate of angular relaxation. This behavior is rationalized in terms of a simple microscopic model. The order parameters for pure lipid and coat protein containing bilayers are compared to 2H-NMR values. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
