Bioconjugate Materials for the Study of Pigment Mobility in Light-Harvesting Bioconjugate materials for the study of pigment mobility in light-harvesting systems, protein-based formulations for hydrophobic actives, and conformational changes in conjugate vaccines by Jake Jaffe A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Chemistry in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Matthew B. Francis, Chair Professor Felix R. Fischer Professor Douglas S. Clark Spring 2016 Bioconjugate materials for the study of pigment mobility in light-harvesting systems, protein-based formulations for hydrophobic actives, and conformational changes in conjugate vaccines Copyright © 2016 By: Jake Jaffe Abstract Bioconjugate materials for the study of pigment mobility in light-harvesting systems, protein-based formulations for hydrophobic actives, and conformational changes in conjugate vaccines by Jake Jaffe Doctor of Philosophy in Chemistry University of California, Berkeley Professor Matthew B. Francis, Chair Techniques for the preparation, purification, and characterization of protein-based materials have allowed for advances in fields ranging from medicine to materials science. While great attention has been paid to the chemistries used in the attachment of molecules of interest to proteins, the importance of the linking group is often overlooked. Each chapter of this dissertation describes the use of linkers as functional design elements in three distinct projects. In Chapter One, the development and characterization of a minimal model for investigating the role of pigment mobility in photosynthetic light-harvesting antenna systems will be discussed. In this model system, pigment- protein and pigment-pigment interactions were altered through the use of pigment-protein linkers of various lengths and rigidities. Chapter Two explores new biocompatible bond cleavage reactions for the preparation of a new class of general protein-based formulations for hydrophobic actives, wherein the linker group imparts the critical properties to the system. Chapter Three will examine conformational changes in peptide-protein conjugate vaccines. The roles of specific methods of covalent modification and linker composition in these conformational changes are emphasized. 1 In memory of Bernard “Saba” Jaffe i Table of Contents Chapter 1: Linker

Thus, as beer volatile components represent the major contributors for beer overall and peculiar aroma properties, this work intends to perform an in-depth profiling of lager beer volatile metabolites and to generate new data that may contribute for molecules’ identification, by using multidimensional gas chromatography. A set of lager beers were used as case-study, and 329 volatile metabolites were determined, distributed over 8 chemical families: acids, alcohols, esters, monoterpenic compounds, norisoprenoids, sesquiterpenic compounds, sulfur compounds, and volatile phenols. From these, 96 compounds are reported for the first time in the lager beer volatile composition. Around half of them were common to all beers under study. Clustering analysis allowed a beer typing according to production system: macro- and microbrewer beers. Monoterpenic and sesquiterpenic compounds were the chemical families that showed wide range of chemical structures, which may contribute for the samples’ peculiar aroma characteristics.

  • A New Interpretation of the Absorption and the Dual Fluorescence of Prodan in Solution
    A new interpretation of the absorption and the dual fluorescence of Prodan in solution Cíntia C. Vequi-Suplicy1,2, Yoelvis Orozco-Gonzalez1,3, M. Teresa Lamy1, Sylvio Canuto1, Kaline Coutinho1* 1. Instituto de Física, Universidade de São Paulo, Rua do Matão,1371, 05508-090, São Paulo, SP, Brazil. 2. Fundacion IMDEA-Nanociencia Cantoblanco, 28049, Madrid, Spain. 3. Department of Chemistry, Georgia State University, Atlanta, GA 30302, United States. Abstract Remarkable interest is associated to the interpretation of Prodan fluorescent spectrum. A sequential hybrid Quantum Mechanics/Molecular Mechanics (S-QM/MM) method was used to establish that the fluorescent emission occurs from two different excited states, resulting in a broad asymmetric emission spectrum. The absorption spectra in several solvents were measured and calculated using different theoretical models presenting excellent agreement. All theoretical models (INDO-CIS, TD- B3LYP and CASPT2) agree that the first observed band at the absorption spectrum in solution is composed of three electronic excitations very close in energy. Then, the electronic excitation around 340-360 nm may populate the first three excited states (π-π*Lb, n-π* and π-π*La). The ground state S0 and the first three excited states were analyzed using multi-configurational calculations (CASSCF) and second-order multi-configurational perturbation theory (CASPT2). The corresponding equilibrium geometries are all planar in vacuum. Considering the solvent effects in the electronic structure of the solute and in the solvent relaxation around the solute, it was identified that these three excited states can change the relative order depending on the solvent polarity and following the minimum path energy, internal conversions may occur.

    Journal of Physiology (1991), 437, pp. 431-448 431 With 11 figures Printed in Great Britain ACTIONS OF n-ALCOHOLS ON NICOTINIC ACETYLCHOLINE RECEPTOR CHANNELS IN CULTURED RAT MYOTUBES BY R. D. MURRELL*, M. S. BRAUNt AND THE LATE D. A. HAYDON From the Physiological Laboratory, University of Cambridge, Downing Street, Cambridge CB2 3EG (Received 14 June 1990) SUMMARY 1. The actions of the n-alcohols from pentanol to dodecanol on nicotinic acetylcholine receptor (nAChR) channels were investigated by recording single ACh- activated channel activity from inside-out membrane patches isolated from cultured rat myotubes. Alcohols were applied to the cytoplasmic side of the membrane; aqueous concentrations ranged from 11 7 mM-pentanol to 0-02 mm-dodecanol. 2. The intermediate-chain alcohols (pentanol to octanol) caused channel currents to fluctuate between the fully open and closed state level so that openings occurred in bursts interrupted by brief gaps. Closed time distributions were fitted well with two exponential components, the fast component representing the closures within a burst. The number of gaps within a burst was dependent on alcohol concentration whereas gap duration was independent of concentration but increased with increasing chain length of the alcohol up to octanol. 3. Nonanol and decanol reduced the mean duration of bursts of openings but did not cause an increase in the number of short closed intervals within a burst. Beyond decanol there was a decline in the ability of the n-alcohols to affect channel function. A saturated solution of undecanol (0-07 mM) reduced the mean open time by 33+17 %, whereas a saturated solution of dodecanol had no significant effect.
