Our AII-SDS titration absorption studies indicate the formation of a 1:2 AII:SDS complex in which two negatively charged SDS molecules attach to the AII positively charged N terminus and to Arg(2). Our 206.5-nm excited Raman results indicate that the 1:2 AII:SDS complexation increases the AII beta-turn composition. We also used 228.9-nm Raman excitation to probe the local solvent accessibility of Tyr(4) (AII) in DPC and SDS micelles. Our Tyr (AII) solvent accessibility studies suggest that the Tyr residue is more exposed to the aqueous environment in SDS micelles than in DPC micelles. date: 2000 date_type: published publication: Biopolymers volume: 57 number: 2 pagerange: 55 - 63 event_location: United States refereed: TRUE issn: 0006-3525 funders: NIGMS NIH HHS (R01GM30741) id_number: 10.1002/(SICI)1097-0282(2000)57:2<55::AID-BIP2>3.0.CO;2-B other_id: 10.1002/(SICI)1097-0282(2000)57:2<55::AID-BIP2>3.0.CO;2-B pmid: 10766956 mesh_headings: Acetonitriles--pharmacology mesh_headings: Angiotensin II--chemistry mesh_headings: Angiotensin II--radiation effects mesh_headings: Animals mesh_headings: Humans mesh_headings: Lipids--chemistry mesh_headings: Lipids--pharmacology mesh_headings: Membranes, Artificial mesh_headings: Micelles mesh_headings: Phosphorylcholine--analogs & derivatives mesh_headings: Phosphorylcholine--chemistry mesh_headings: Phosphorylcholine--pharmacology mesh_headings: Protein Conformation--drug effects mesh_headings: Protein Structure, Secondary--drug effects mesh_headings: Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate--chemistry mesh_headings: Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate--pharmacology mesh_headings: Solvents--pharmacology mesh_headings: Spectrum Analysis, Raman--methods mesh_headings: Ultraviolet Rays mesh_headings: Water--pharmacology chemical_names: Acetonitriles chemical_names: Lipids chemical_names: Membranes, Artificial chemical_names: Micelles chemical_names: Solvents chemical_names: Phosphorylcholine chemical_names: Angiotensin II chemical_names: Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate chemical_names: dodecylphosphocholine chemical_names: acetonitrile chemical_names: Water language: eng citation: Holtz, JS and Lednev, IK and Asher, SA (2000) UV resonance Raman study of angiotensin II conformation in nonaqueous environments: lipid micelles and acetonitrile.
