    Notes: Some physical properties of aqueous solutions containing linear, flexible, polyelectrolytes are reviewed in order to emphasize the role of charge interactions in these systems which strongly depend on the charge of the macromolecular chain and the concentration of low molar mass electrolyte in solution. Particular emphasis is put on polyelectrolyte solutions containing an excess of added salt, which from a theoretical point of view are easier to understand. Both the dilute and the semi-dilute case will be discussed. In the former the problem of the electrostatic potential around the macromolecular chain is briefly reviewed as well as the use of a wormlike chain model to derive average dimensions of polyelectrolytes in solutions. In the latter the scaling approach to concentration effects in polyelectrolyte solutions is briefly discussed. The pecularities of the semi-dilute regime in polyelectrolyte solutions is illustrated with the help of results obtained with dynamic light scattering and the time dependent decay of electric birefringence.

    Notes: The dielectric behavior of maleic acid-ethylene copolymer solutions has been investigated at different polymer concentrations and two degrees of neutralization α′. It is shown that this behavior is analogous to that of ordinary polyacids. Also the experimental data can be explained in terms of the van der Touw-Mandel theory, but at low α′ a possible contribution from motion of negative charges (in turn related to bound proton fluctuations) has to be taken into account. The dielectric results suggest that the formation of intramolecular hydrogen bonds has an influence on the change of the average dimensions of the chain with increasing α′. This seems to be confirmed by viscosity data.

    Description / Table of Contents: Die Konformationsumwandlung von teilweise veresterter Polymethacrylsüre wurde mit Hilfe der potentiometrischen Titration untersucht.Es wurde gefunden, daß die Stabilität der bei kleinem Dissoziationsgrad (α) vorliegenden Form nicht vermindert wird, wenn die Zahl jener Kettenglieder, die intramolekulare Wasserstoffbrücken ausbilden können, abnimmt. Es zeigt sich vielmehr, daß die Umwandlung mit der mittleren Ladung pro Struktureinheit zusammenhängt. Dies stützt die Hypothese, wonach die bei kleinen α-Werten stabile Form eine kompaktere Struktur besitzt, die möglicherweise durch VAN DER WAALsche Wechselwirkungen zwischen den  - CH3-Gruppen stabilisiert ist.
    Notes: The conformational transition of poly-(methacrylic acid), partially esterified with dimethyl sulfate, has been studied using potentiometric titration at constant temperature.It is found that the stability of the form existing at low values of dissociation (α) is not decreased by reducing the number of groups on the chain capable of establishing intramolecular hydrogen bonds. The transition is also shown to depend on the average charge per monomeric unit. This confirms the hypothesis that the stable form at low α-values is a compact structure stabilized probably by VAN DER WAALS attractions between  - CH3 groups.

    Notes: Pinacyanol in the presence of an excess of poly(L-glutamic acid) [polymer/dye ratio (P/D) 〉 10] exhibits different absorption spectra in the visible region when bound to the slightly charged polypeptide in the α-helical conformation or to the nearly completely dissociated polypeptide in the coillike conformation. These spectra reveal aggregation of the dye bound to the macromolecular chain in both conformations, although in the coillike one different kinds of aggregates may be present. Dye binding is accompanied by the appearance of CD bands in the visible region which are also different for the α-helical and the coillike conformations. The aggregates formed in the presence of the latter change slowly in time and seem to induce some conformational changes in the polypeptide chain. Furthermore, they have been found to be, at least partially, stable with respect to a subsequent reversal to the α-helical conformation. All results could be qualitatively interpreted assuming that in the coillike conformation, ordered regions exist along the chain as proposed by Krimm and Tiffany.

    Notes: The secondary structure of xanthan in solutions of relatively low salt concentration and at room temperature has been investigated using static light scattering experiments. Additional evidence has been found for a dimeric structure at 25°C in 0.01M NaCl. From the experimental z-average mean square (ms) radius of gyration, a value for the persistence length p has been estimated, taking explicitly into account the polydispersity of the three samples used, which has been established by gel permeation chromatography (GPC) measurements. The experimental particle scattering functions of the three samples are consistent with theoretical estimates for polydisperse systems with the same value of p = 65 ± 10 nm and the molar mass per unit length for a dimeric structure.This secondary structure remains unaffected by the ionic strength in the 0.005-0.0lM range. Partial aggregation seems to occur at higher NaCl concentrations.Light scattering and GPC data show that heating the xanthan 0.01M NaCl solutions to about 70°C considerably reduces the Mw of the low molar mass sample (2.3 × 105-g·mol-1), contrary to what is observed for the high molar mass sample (1.8 × 106-g·mol-1). These experimental findings can be accounted for by a partial temperature-induced dissociation of the xanthan dimers according to an all-or-none mechanism. © 1994 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The hydrodynamics of the bacterial elongation factor EF-Tu have been studied in the presence of its ligand guanosine-5′-diphosphate (GDP) by sedimentation in the ultracentrifuge and quasielastic light scattering. Sedimentation studies have made it possible to establish experimental conditions under which only negligible aggregation of the protein occurs (neutral pH, concentration 〈 3 mg/mL). Analysis of the light intensity autocorrelation functions under these conditions revealed two independent scattering species with diffusion coefficients of 0.71 × 10-6 and 0.04 × 10-6 cm2 s-1. The material with the lower diffusion coefficient, i.e., the aggregates, represented less than 1% of the total number of EF-Tu particles. The other 99% diffused as monomeric molecules with a molar mass corresponding to the value calculated from the known primary structure of the protein. The hydrodynamic parameters derived from the experimental data suggest that EF-Tu·GDP in solution is close to a spherical particle.

    Notes: A series of copolymers of L-lysine and L-valine [poly(L-lysinef L-valine100-f)] containing 0-13% L-valine have been studied, in 0.10M KF solution, using potentiometric titration and circular dichroism spectroscopy. Incorporation of increasing amounts of valine into the copolymers favors β-sheet formation over α-helix formation at high pH and room temperature. The titrations were analyzed using the method of Zimm and Rice and the partial free energy (ΔG0cβ) for the coil-to-β-sheet transition for valine is estimated at 900 cal/mole at 25°C. From the temperature dependence of the free energy, the partial enthalpy, ΔH0cβ, and entropy, ΔS0cβ, of the transition for valine is estimated to be 854 cal/mole and 6.0 e.u., respectively. The corresponding partial thermodynamic parameters for L-lysine are in agreement with published results. The fraction of β-sheet versus pH has been calculated for poly(L-lysine86.8 L-valine13.2) at 25.0°C using the titration data; data obtained from circular dichroism spectroscopy for the same copolymer are in good accord. It is concluded from these results that L-valine is a very strong β-sheet forming amino acid. Furthermore, these results indicate that the Zimm-Rice method is applicable to transitions between the coil and β-sheet states for a polypeptide containing two different residues.
