Gutachter Prof. Dr. Gerhard Winter Mündliche Prüfung am 10.06.2011 Acknowledgments The presented thesis was written at the Department of Pharmacy, Pharmaceutical Technology and Biopharmaceutics at the Ludwig-Maximilians-University in Munich under supervision of Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Frieß. First of all I would like to take the chance and thank my supervisor Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Frieß for giving me the opportunity to work in his research group. I always felt greatly supported by you, even when the experimental results were demanding. On a personal and on a professional level interaction with you was always a pleasure. Thank you for the possibilities you opened me to increase my scientific knowledge even with research stays and congress participations abroad. I would also like to thank Prof. Dr. Gerhard Winter for being co-referee of this thesis. Furthermore, I had a wonderful time at your chair, with a lot of interesting discussions, social events and enjoyed the working conditions. I deeply appreciate Prof. Dr. Peter Westh at Roskilde University for letting me work in his lab and giving me numerous tips and help with my calorimetric experiments. Mange Tak! Also thanks to my colleagues at RUC, especially Christina, Sophus, Søren, Nicolaj and Peter for making the time in Denmark so much fun. I would like to thank the Dr. August und Dr. Anni Lesmüller-Stiftung for supporting my research stay at the Roskilde-University. During my time at Prof. Frieß group I had a lot of interactions with different researchers. I would like to thank PD Dr. Armin Giese and Prof. Dr. Joachim Rädler for the help with the FCS experiments, Dr. Lars Allmendinger and Dr. Holger Lerche for giving analytical advice and performing MS and NMR experiments for me. Dr. Bernhard Kämpf, Helmut Hartl and Dr. David Stevenson were so kind to perform analytical experiments for me. Of course Dr. Marco Keller and Markus Gruber did a great job of synthesizing the trehalose esters. Also my dear colleague at Merck Dirk Schiroky gave very helpful input into MS interpretation. Some students were helping me with experiments that are mentioned here. From all of them I would like to thank Benjamin Waldmann and Marcel Lietz who were the first students and who I kept contact over the time. Also Monika Alter and Tobias Fister who convinced me to take one more group of students should be mentioned as they generated data that explained a lot. I asked friends to proof-read one part or the other of this work. Dr. Meike Römer, Dr. Katrin Kinkel, Dr. Cornelius Pompe, Torge Schiefelbein, Dr. Martin Meyer, I really thank you for the quick responses and the scientific input I got. I would like to thank my colleagues at pharmaceutical technology for the fun time, deep discussions and nice cooperation. We had a blast with all the cakes, the chocolate almonds and burning the calories again at our weekly after-work jog or at triathlons. A special thanks goes out to Kerstin Höger and Dr. Frank Schaubhut and of course his wife Susan Schaubhut who have been not only lab mates, but also became very close friends. During my time I found and rediscovered some very close friends. Susanne, Julia, Martin, and Christof have been around me, supported me and cheered me up, when Munich was too much for me again. During writing my thesis in Darmstadt also Veronika and Katrin were the best friends I could possibly imagine. I look forward to the day you swim faster than me in a triathlon. Most important, I would like to thank my family. Without you I wouldn‟t be who I am now. Thanks for all you made possible for me, for your encouragement and your support.

    Distinct Effects of Guanidine Thiocyanate on the Structure of Superfolder GFP Olesya V. Stepanenko1, Olga V. Stepanenko1, Irina M. Kuznetsova1, Daria M. Shcherbakova2, Vladislav V. Verkhusha2, Konstantin K. Turoverov1* 1 Laboratory of Structural Dynamics, Stability and Folding of Proteins, Institute of Cytology of the Russian Academy of Sciences, St. Petersburg, Russia, 2 Department of Anatomy and Structural Biology, Albert Einstein College of Medicine, New York, New York, United States of America Abstract Having a high folding efficiency and a low tendency to aggregate, the superfolder GFP (sfGFP) offers a unique opportunity to study the folding of proteins that have a b-barrel topology. Here, we studied the unfolding–refolding of sfGFP that was induced by guanidine thiocyanate (GTC), which is a stronger denaturing agent than GdnHCl or urea. Structural perturbations of sfGFP were studied by spectroscopic methods (absorbance, fluorescence, and circular dichroism), by acrylamide quenching of tryptophan and green chromophore fluorescence, and by size-exclusion chromatography. Low concentrations of GTC (up to 0.1 M) induce subtle changes in the sfGFP structure. The pronounced changes in the visible absorption spectrum of sfGFP which are accompanied by a dramatic decrease in tryptophan and green chromophore fluorescence was recorded in the range 0–0.7 M GNC. These alterations of sfGFP characteristics that erroneously can be mixed up with appearance of intermediate state in fact have pure spectroscopic but not structural nature. Higher concentrations of GTC (from 0.7 to 1.7 M), induce a disruption of the sfGFP structure, that is manifested in simultaneous changes of all of the detected parameters.

Box 80216 Jeddah, Saudi Arabia Tyrosine Nitrated Proteins: Biochemistry and Pathophysiology Haseeb Ahsan* Department of Biochemistry, Faculty of Dentistry, Jamia Millia Islamia (A Central University), Okhla, New Delhi – 110025, India *Corresponding author: Dr. Haseeb Ahsan, Department of Biochemistry, Faculty of Dentistry, Jamia Millia Islamia (A Central University), Okhla, New Delhi – 110025, India, E-mail: drhahsan@ gmail.com Abstract The free radical-mediated damage to proteins results in the modification of amino acid residues, cross-linking of side chains and fragmentation. L-tyrosine and protein bound tyrosine are prone to attack by various mediators and reactive nitrogen intermediates to form 3-nitrotyrosine (3-NT). 3-NT formation is also catalyzed by a class of peroxidases utilizing nitrite and hydrogen peroxide as substrates. Evidence supports the formation of 3-NT in vivo in diverse pathologic conditions and 3-NT is thought to be a relatively specific marker of oxidative damage. The formation of nitrotyrosine represents a specific peroxynitrite-mediated protein modification; thus, detection of nitrotyrosine in proteins is considered as a biomarker for endogenous peroxynitrite activity. Formation of tyrosine nitrated proteins is considered to be a post-translational modification with important pathophysiological consequences and is one of the markers of nitrosative stress that have been reported in neurodegeneration, inflammatory and other pathological conditions. Introduction Most proteins contain tyrosine residues with a natural abundance of about 3% [1].

External Editor: Herbert Schneckenburger Received: 8 October 2014; in revised form: 8 November 2014 / Accepted: 18 November 2014 / Published: 5 December 2014 Abstract: Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) occurs when the distance between a donor fluorophore and an acceptor is within 10 nm, and its application often necessitates fluorescent labeling of biological targets. However, covalent modification of biomolecules can inadvertently give rise to conformational and/or functional changes. This review describes the application of intrinsic protein fluorescence, predominantly derived from tryptophan (λEX ∼ 280 nm, λEM ∼ 350 nm), in protein-related research and mainly focuses on label-free FRET techniques. In terms of wavelength and intensity, tryptophan fluorescence is strongly influenced by its (or the protein’s) local environment, which, in addition to fluorescence quenching, has been applied to study protein conformational changes. Intrinsic Förster resonance energy transfer (iFRET), a recently developed technique, utilizes the intrinsic fluorescence of tryptophan in conjunction with target-specific fluorescent probes as FRET donors and acceptors, respectively, for real time detection of native proteins.
