Abstract
NADH-OH, the specific inhibitor of NADH-binding site of the mammalian complex I, is shown to completely block FMN-dependent reactions of P. denitrificans enzyme in plasma membrane vesicles: NADH oxidation (in a competitive manner with Ki of 1 nM) as well as reduction of pyridine nucleotides, ferricyanide and oxygen in the reverse electron transfer. In contrast to these activities, the reverse electron transfer to hexaammineruthenium (III) catalyzed by plasma membrane vesicles is insensitive to NADH-OH. To explain these results, we hypothesize the existence of a non-FMN redox group of P. denitrificans complex I that is capable of reducing hexaammineruthenium (III), which is corroborated by the complex kinetics of NADH: hexaammineruthenium (III)-reductase activity, catalyzed by this enzyme. A new assay procedure for measuring succinate-driven reverse electron transfer catalyzed by P. denitrificans complex I to hexaammineruthenium (III) is proposed.

Abstract
For over the past 30 years, generalized two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy has formed an active and widespread research area. One of the most attractive properties of this method is that one can determine the sequential order of signal changes. But the determination of the sequential order has only been done manually for several arbitrarily chosen bands. In this paper, we develop a method to automatically determine the sequential order of all of the band intensity changes, and we applied this method to band changes of vibration spectra. This method will open a door to analyze more complicated signals often seen in life phenomena.

Abstract
Infrared difference spectroscopy probes vibrational changes of proteins upon their perturbation. Compared with other spectroscopic methods, it stands out by its sensitivity to the protonation state, H-bonding, and the conformation of different groups in proteins, including the peptide backbone, amino acid side chains, internal water molecules, or cofactors. In particular, the detection of protonation and H-bonding changes in a time-resolved manner, not easily obtained by other techniques, is one of the most successful applications of IR difference spectroscopy. The present review deals with the use of perturbations designed to specifically change the protein between two (or more) functionally relevant states, a strategy often referred to as reaction-induced IR difference spectroscopy. In the first half of this contribution, I review the technique of reaction-induced IR difference spectroscopy of proteins, with special emphasis given to the preparation of suitable samples and their characterization, strategies for the perturbation of proteins, and methodologies for time-resolved measurements (from nanoseconds to minutes). The second half of this contribution focuses on the spectral interpretation. It starts by reviewing how changes in H-bonding, medium polarity, and vibrational coupling affect vibrational frequencies, intensities, and bandwidths. It is followed by band assignments, a crucial aspect mostly performed with the help of isotopic labeling and site-directed mutagenesis, and complemented by integration and interpretation of the results in the context of the studied protein, an aspect increasingly supported by spectral calculations. Selected examples from the literature, predominately but not exclusively from retinal proteins, are used to illustrate the topics covered in this review.

Abstract
![]()
Gas-phase, double
resonance IR spectroscopy has proven to be an
excellent approach to obtain structural information on peptides ranging
from single amino acids to large peptides and peptide clusters. In
this review, we discuss the state-of-the-art of infrared action spectroscopy
of peptides in the far-IR and THz regime. An introduction to the field
of far-IR spectroscopy is given, thereby highlighting the opportunities
that are provided for gas-phase research on neutral peptides. Current
experimental methods, including spectroscopic schemes, have been reviewed.
Structural information from the experimental far-IR spectra can be
obtained with the help of suitable theoretical approaches such as
dynamical DFT techniques and the recently developed Graph Theory.
The aim of this review is to underline how the synergy between far-IR
spectroscopy and theory can provide an unprecedented picture of the
structure of neutral biomolecules in the gas phase. The far-IR signatures
of the discussed studies are summarized in a far-IR map, in order
to gain insight into the origin of the far-IR localized and delocalized
motions present in peptides and where they can be found in the electromagnetic
spectrum.

Abstract
Protein structural vibrations impact biology by steering the structure to functional intermediate states; enhancing tunneling events; and optimizing energy transfer. Strong water absorption and a broad continuous vibrational density of states have prevented optical identification of these vibrations. Recently spectroscopic signatures that change with functional state were measured using anisotropic terahertz microscopy. The technique however has complex sample positioning requirements and long measurement times, limiting access for the biomolecular community. Here we demonstrate that a simplified system increases spectroscopic structure to dynamically fingerprint biomacromolecules with a factor of 6 reduction in data acquisition time. Using this technique, polarization varying anisotropy terahertz microscopy, we show sensitivity to inhibitor binding and unique vibrational spectra for several proteins and an RNA G-quadruplex. The technique’s sensitivity to anisotropic absorbance and birefringence provides rapid assessment of macromolecular dynamics that impact biology. The characterization of biomacromolecule structural vibrations has been impeded by a broad continuous vibrational density of states obscuring molecule specific vibrations. A terahertz microscopy system using polarization control produces signatures to dynamically fingerprint proteins and a RNA G-quadruplex.

Abstract
The pharmaceutical industry is in need of new techniques to identify the chirality of solids due to regulatory and safety concerns regarding the biological activity of enantiomers. In this study, we present for the first time the application of low-frequency Raman spectroscopy as a new and sensitive method for analyzing the chiral purity of crystals. Using this method, we were able to identify small amounts, as low as 1 % w/w, of an enantiomer in racemic crystals. To demonstrate the capabilities of the method, we used a model system based on chiral crystals of enantiopure, racemic crystals and their mixtures in various ratios. We found that the low-frequency Raman spectra of racemic and enantiopure crystals are significantly different, reflecting the different hydrogen bond networks. Moreover, a comparison of the sensitivity of enantiomeric excess in chiral crystals to that of circular dichroism and X-ray diffraction measurements showed that low-frequency Raman attains high sensitivity comparable to chiral optical methods used for solutions. Overall, our proposed approach of using Raman spectroscopy for determining enantiomeric excess in crystals is simple, fast, and offers a high degree of chiral sensitivity.

Abstract
The low-frequency vibrational (LFV) modes of biomolecules reflect specific intramolecular and intermolecular thermally induced fluctuations that are driven by external perturbations, such as ligand binding, protein interaction, electron transfer, and enzymatic activity. Large efforts have been invested over the years to develop methods to access the LFV modes due to their importance in the studies of the mechanisms and biological functions of biomolecules. Here, we present a method to measure the LFV modes of biomolecules based on Raman spectroscopy that combines volume holographic filters with a single-stage spectrometer, to obtain high signal-to-noise-ratio spectra in short acquisition times. We show that this method enables LFV mode characterization of biomolecules even in a hydrated environment. The measured spectra exhibit distinct features originating from intra- and/or intermolecular collective motion and lattice modes. The observed modes are highly sensitive to the overall structure, size, long-range order, and configuration of the molecules, as well as to their environment. Thus, the LFV Raman spectrum acts as a fingerprint of the molecular structure and conformational state of a biomolecule. The comprehensive method we present here is widely applicable, thus enabling high-throughput study of LFV modes of biomolecules.

Abstract
H/D exchange kinetics at the level of the amide proton in the mid infrared (1700-1500 cm-1) make it possible to study the conformational flexibility of membrane proteins, independent of size or the presence of detergent or lipids. Slow, medium, and fast exchanging domains are distinguished, which reveal a different accessibility to the solvent. Whereas amide hydrogens undergo rapid exchange with solvent in an open structure, hydrogens experience much slower exchange when involved in H-bonded structures or when sterically inaccessible to the solvent. Here, we describe the protocol that was used to study the effect of phospholipids on the overall structure of the Na+ NQR from V. cholerae, a sodium pumping membrane protein.

Abstract
Redox-dependent conformational changes are currently discussed to be a crucial part of the reaction mechanism of the respiratory complex I. Specialized difference Fourier transform infrared techniques allow the detection of side-chain movements and minute secondary structure changes. For complex I, (1)H/(2)H exchange kinetics of the amide modes revealed a better accessibility of the backbone in the presence of NADH and quinone. Interestingly, the presence of phospholipids, that is crucial for the catalytic activity of the isolated enzyme complex, changes the overall conformation. When comparing complex I samples from different species, very similar electrochemically induced FTIR difference spectra and very similar rearrangements are reported. Finally, the information obtained with variants and from Zn(2+) inhibited samples for the conformational reorganization of complex I upon electron transfer are discussed in this review. This article is part of a Special Issue entitled Respiratory complex I, edited by Volker Zickermann and Ulrich Brandt.

Abstract
In this study, experimental far infrared measurements of L-serine, L-threonine, L-cysteine, and L-methionine are presented showing the spectra for the 1.0-13.0 pH range. In parallel, solid state DFT calculations were performed on the amino acid zwitterions in the crystalline form. We focused on the lowest frequency far infrared normal modes, which required the most precision and convergence of the calculations. Analysis of the computational results, which included the potential energy distribution of the vibrational modes, permitted a detailed and almost complete assignment of the experimental spectrum. In addition to characteristic signals of the two main acid-base couples, CO2H/CO2(-) and NH3(+)/NH2, specific side chain contributions for these amino acids, including CCO and CCS vibrational modes were analyzed. This study is in line with the growing application of FIR measurements to biomolecules.

Abstract
Membrane-bound respiratory complex I in inside-out submitochondrial particles (SMP) catalyzes both superoxide and hydrogen peroxide formation in NADH- and/or succinate-supported reactions. At optimal NADH concentration (50μM), the complex I-mediated process results in a formation of two superoxide anions and H(2)O(2) as the reaction products in approximately 0.7 ratio. Almost the same ratio is found for purified complex I (0.6) and for the aerobic succinate-supported reverse electron transfer reaction. Superoxide production is depressed at high, more physiologically relevant NADH concentrations, whereas hydrogen peroxide formation is insensitive to the elevated level of NADH. The rates of H(2)O(2) formation at variable NAD(+)/NADH ratios satisfactorily fit the Nernst equation for a single reactive two-electron donor component equilibrated with ambient midpoint redox potential of -347mV (0.13 NAD(+)/NADH ratio, pH 8.0). Half-maximal superoxide production rate proceeds at significantly higher NAD(+)/NADH ratio (0.33). Guanidine strongly stimulates NADH-supported hydrogen peroxide and superoxide production at any NADH concentration and activates NADH:ferricyanide and inhibits NADH:hexaammineruthenium (III) reductase activities while showing no effects on NADH oxidase of SMP. In the low range of NADH concentration, superoxide production rate shows a simple hyperbolic dependence on NADH with apparent K(m)(NADH) of 0.5μM, whereas sigmoidal dependence of hydrogen peroxide production is seen with half-maximal rate at 25μM NADH. We interpret the data as to suggest that at least two sites participate in complex I-mediated ROS generation: FMNH(-) that produces hydrogen peroxide, and an iron-sulfur center (likely N-2) that produces superoxide anion.

Abstract
We describe the specific spectral signature of different phospholipids and sphingolipids in the far infrared. Three specific spectral domains have been found: the head group contributions (600 and 480 cm−1); the modes of the torsion motion of the hydrocarbon chains and of the skeleton vibration (460 to 180 cm−1); and the hydrogen-bonding continuum (below 300 cm−1). Marker bands for individual phospholipids are distinguished.
