Resonance. Raman spectra of five “blue” copper proteins {Rhus vernicifera stellacyanin and lacease, spinach plas-tocyanin, Cucúrbita pepo medullosa ascorbate oxidase, and human ceruloplasmin) were measured in the region 150to 1700 cm"" 1, using laser excitation into their~ 600-nm electronic absorptionbands. From the resonance Raman and other spectroscopic and chemical evidence, it is proposed that the “blue” copper site has a distorted four-coordinate structure arising from the bindingof copper to one cysteine sulfur and three nitrogen atoms, at least one of which is an amide nitrogen. A qualita-tive molecularorbital description relating the resonance Raman bands to the proposed structure is presented. The distinctive resonance Raman spectrum of stellacyanin suggested that its “blue” copper site differs markedly from those in the other proteins examined.
