Noncanonical Amino Acid

With the recent explosion in high-resolution protein structures, one of the next frontiers in biology is elucidating the mechanisms by which conformational rearrangements in proteins are regulated to meet the needs of cells under changing conditions. Rigorously measuring protein energetics and dynamics requires the development of new methods that can resolve structural heterogeneity and conformational distributions. We have previously developed steady-state transition metal ion fluorescence resonance energy transfer (tmFRET) approaches using a fluorescent noncanonical amino acid donor (Anap) and transition metal ion acceptor to probe conformational rearrangements in soluble and membrane proteins. Here, we show that the fluorescent noncanonical amino acid Acd has superior photophysical properties that extend its utility as a donor for tmFRET. Using maltose-binding protein (MBP) expressed in mammalian cells as a model system, we show that Acd is comparable to Anap in steady-state tmFRET experiments and that its long, single-exponential lifetime is better suited for probing conformational distributions using time-resolved FRET. These experiments reveal differences in heterogeneity in the apo and holo conformational states of MBP and produce accurate quantification of the distributions among apo and holo conformational states at subsaturating maltose concentrations. Our new approach using Acd for time-resolved tmFRET sets the stage for measuring the energetics of conformational rearrangements in soluble and membrane proteins in near-native conditions.

.In this research, ZnCuInS/ZnSe/ZnS quantum dots (QDs) have been studied as an excellent red emitting source for blue GaN LED because of its non-toxic deep red emmission, and large Stokes shift properties. In the paper ZnCuInS/ZnSe/ZnS core/shell quantum dots were prepared with the particle size of 4.5nm. According to the measurement of photoluminescence spectrum emitted by ZnCuInS/ZnSe/ZnS core/shell quantum dots, the emitting peak of 700 nm and the full was achieved as red emitter.It was found that absorption edge and photoluminescence peak shifted to shorter wavelength with decreasing the nanocrystal size due to quantum size effect.Meanwhile, we were prepared ZnCuInS/ZnSe/ZnS core/shell quantum dot light emitting diodes and their photoluminescence properties were studied. After the suitable bias was applied on the films, increasing the ZnCuInS/ZnSe/ZnS QDs concentration in the blue GaN chips, red emission increased with decreasing LED’s blue light.
