Promoter effect of La3+ on the electrochemical reaction of microperoxidase-11

The effect of La3+ on the electrochemical behavior and structure of heme undecapeptide-microperoxidase-11 (MP-11)-in the aqueous solution was investigated using cyclic voltammetry, circular dichroism (CD) and UV-vis absorption spectrometry. It was found for the first time that La3+ would promote the electrochemical reaction of MP-11 at the glassy carbon (GC) electrode. This is mainly due to the fact that La3+ would induce more beta-turn and alpha-helical conformations from the random coil conformation of MP-11 and increase the non-planarity of the heme.

Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy of microperoxidase-11 on roughed silver electrodes

The conformation of microperoxidase-11 (MP-11) adsorbed on roughened silver electrodes was studied using surface-enhanced Fourier transform Raman spectroscopy. The results demonstrate that MP-11 was initially adsorbed via its polypeptide chain with a alpha-helix conformation, as indicated by the enhancement of the characteristic bands related to the amides I and III. The weak resonance effect of the porphyrin macrocycle in the near IR region contributes to the spectrum of the heme group. The presence of imidazole as the sixth ligand to the heme iron influences the conformation of the polypeptide chain of MP-11 on the electrode surface. Evaporation of solvent water results in an opened conformation of the adsorbed MP-11. which allows the heme group to contact the electrode surface directly.

The crystal structure of 11-{[(4'-heptoxy-4-biphenylyl) carbonyl] oxy}-1-undecyne (A9EO7), an acetylene with a biphenyl mesogenic moiety, was studied by combination of electron diffraction (ED), wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD), and molecular simulation of ED pattern and molecular packing. A9EO7 was found to adopt an orthorhombic P2(1)2(1)2 space group with cell parameters of a = 5.78 Angstrom, b = 7.46 Angstrom, and c = 63.26 Angstrom, for which molecular packing calculations were conducted to elucidate the molecular conformation. Its crystal morphology was observed using a transmission electron microscope (TEM) and an atom force microscope (AFM). A9EO7 crystal grew to form step like morphology. Crystallization behavior of A9EO7 in magnetic field was examined. Induced by magnetic field A9EO7 could crystallize in such a way that its molecular long axis was parallel to the substrate.

Resonance Raman and surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopic study of microperoxidase-11

The electron transfer and structure of microperoxidase-11(MP-11) in solution and at electrode/solution interface were studied by electrochemical, resonance Raman and surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopic techniques. Results show that the central iron in heme group was six-coordinated in solution, whereas it was converted to five-coordinated state as MP-11 was adsorbed on the surface of a roughened silver electrode, due to the reorientation of MP-11 molecules. The electrochemical properties of MP-11 were directly affected by the coordination state of heme iron.

Influence of annealing on structure of Nylon 11

Differential scanning calorimeter (DSC), wide-angle X-ray diffraction (WAXD), small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), and density techniques have been used to investigate the structural parameters of the solid state of Nylon 11 annealed at different temperatures. The equilibrium heat of fusion Delta H-m(0) and equilibrium melting temperature T-m(0) were estimated to be 189.05 J g(-1) and 202.85 degrees C respectively by using the Hoffman-Weeks approach. The degree of crystallinity (W-c,W-x) ranged approximately 24-42% was calculated by WAXD and compared with those by calorimetry (W-c,W-h) and density (W-c,W-d) measurements. The radius of gyration R-g, crystalline thickness L-c, noncrystalline thickness L-a, long period L, semiaxes of the particles (a, b), electron-density difference between the crystalline and noncrystalline regions eta(c) - eta(a), and the invariant Q increased with increasing annealing temperature. The analysis of the SAXS data was based upon the particle characteristic function and the one-dimensional electron-density correlation function. An interphase region existed between the crystalline and noncrystalline region with a clear dimension of about 2 nm for semicrystalline Nylon 11. Instead of the traditional two-phase model, a three-phase model has been proposed to explain these results by means of SAXS.
