Circular dichroism

Manufactured by Applied Photophysics
Sourced in United Kingdom

Circular Dichroism (CD) is a spectroscopic technique that measures the difference in absorption of left-handed and right-handed circularly polarized light by a sample. It is commonly used to study the structural and conformational properties of biomolecules, such as proteins, peptides, and nucleic acids. The core function of Circular Dichroism is to provide information about the secondary and tertiary structure of these molecules.

Fluorescence detection was performed using the F-2700 fluorescence spectrophotometer (Hitachi Ltd., Tokyo, Japan). Gel electrophoresis experiments were performed using a Mini-Sub Cell GT System (Bio-Rad Laboratories, Lnc., Hercules, CA, USA). The secondary structure changes of nucleic acids were detected by circular-dichroism (CD) spectroscopy (Applied Photophysics Ltd., Leatherhead, Surrey, UK). The Zeta-Potential image was measured by a Malvern Dynamic Scatterometer (Malvern Instruments Ltd., Enigma Business Park Grovewood Road, Malvern, Worcestershire WR141XZ, UK). Double-stranded DNA was synthesized by a PCR instrument (Biometra, Göttingen, Germany). The amount of binding of the magnetic beads to the nucleic acid was measured by an Evolution 201 UV-Vis spectrophotometer (Thermo Fisher Scientific Co Ltd., Beijing, China)

Optical rotation data were measured on a MCP 200 dig-ital polarimeter (Anton Paar, Austria). UV and Circular Dichroism spectra were measured on a chirascan Circular Dichroism (Applied Photophysics, UK). HR-ESI-MS data were performed on a Triple TOFTM 5600 + system (AB SCIEX, USA). NMR spectra were recorded on a Bruker avance III HD 400 MHz digital NMR spectrometer (Bruker Optics, Karlsruhe, Germany) with TMS as an internal standard. Column chromatography (CC) was performed with 200~300 mesh silica gel (Qingdao Marine Chemical Factory, China). TLC was performed on silica gel GF254 (Qingdao Marine Chemical Factory, China), spots were visualized under Ultraviolet transmission reflectometer (Shanghai Jingke Industrial, Shanghai). The preparative HPLC was performed on a Semi-preparative HPLC (QuikSep, Beijing, China) with Kromasil 100-5 C 18 column (10 mm×250 mm, 5 μm, Sweden). Subergorgic acid and 2-deoxy-2β-hydroxysubergorgic acid were used to establish GNPS, and their structures were determined by NMR and MS. 2-Deoxy-2β-hydroxysubergorgic acid was also from gorgonian Leptogorgia rigida. [13] The strains in this work were cultured in eight liquid media, eleven bioconversion and four rice media. All of culture media compositions are available in the Supporting Information (Tables S1~S3).

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
