AbsorbanceAbsorbanceBonds Molecules SpectroscopyMolecules are 'glued together' by electrons between the atoms. ~ Two electrons per bond.

Two types of bonds are important for bio molecules: (sigma) bonds look like s-orbitals

when viewed along the bond axis. (pi) bonds look like p-orbitals (dumbbells)

when viewed down the bond axisAlso non-bonding pairs, e.g. lone pairs on N &

O

Ultra violet/visible (UV/vis): how much energy is required to push electrons to new orbitals.

Circular DichroismCircular Dichroism• CD is the difference between the absorption of left

and right handed circularly polarized light as a function of wavelength.

• The difference very small (~<<1/1000 of total) A() = AL()-AR() = [L() - R()]lc or

A() = ()lc

• ~ typically < 10 M-1cm-1 vs. ~20,000 M-1cm-1

CD is very small difference between two large signals

CD CD secondary structure of secondary structure of proteinprotein

• Fit the unknown CD curve u to

a combination of standard curves

• In the simplest case use the standard spectra for secondary structures

t = x + x + xcc

• Vary xx and xc to give the

best fit of t to u

• while x+ x + xc = 1.0 • fits best with: x= 80%x=0%; xc=

20%

• agrees well with structure:

78% helix, 22% other

CD spectra can be analysed by the structure-fitting program “cdsstr” (of C.J. Johnson) to obtain % of secondary structure motifs.

Cdsstr uses a basis set of protein spectra
