| Abstract | We used 204 nm excitation UV Resonance Raman (UVRR) spectroscopy to examine the effects of NaClO(4) on the conformation of poly-L-lysine (PLL). The presence of NaClO(4) induces the formation of -helix, π-helix/bulge, and turn conformations. The dependence of the AmIII(3) frequency on the peptide Ψ Ramachandran angle allows us to experimentally determine the conformational population distributions and the energy landscape of PLL along the Ramachandran Ψ angle. We also used UVRR to measure the NaClO(4) concentration dependence of PLL amide hydrogen exchange kinetics. Exchange rates were determined by fitting the D(2)O exchanging PLL UVRR AmII' band time evolution. Hydrogen exchange is slowed at high NaClO(4) concentrations. The PLL AmII' band exchange kinetics at 0.0, 0.2, and 0.35 M NaClO(4) can be fit by single exponentials, but the AmII' band kinetics of PLL at 0.8 M NaClO(4) requires a double exponential fit. The exchange rates for the extended conformations were monitored by measuring the C( )-H band kinetics. These kinetics are identical to those of the AmII' band until 0.8 M NaClO(4) whereupon the extended conformation exchange becomes clearly faster than that of the -helix-like conformations. Our results indicate that ClO(4)(-) binds to the PLL backbone to protect it from OH(-) exchange catalysis. In addition, ClO(4)(-) binding also slows the conformational exchange between the extended and -helix-like conformations, probably by increasing the activation barriers for conformational interchanges. |

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.
