Department of Chemistry, University of Illinois at Chicago, Box 4348, Chicago, Illinois 60680 Received December 21, 1988; Revised Manuscript Received March 7, 1989 abstract: Vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectra of several globular proteinsdissolved in D20 are presented and compared to conventional UV-CD results. It can be seen that, for the, ß, and a+ ß categories of Levitt and Chothia [(1976) Nature 261, 552], VCD evidences much larger band shape variations, including sign alteration, than does UV-CD. A direct parallel is seen between the VCD of the-helix found in model polypeptides and the amide V VCD of myoglobin. Since allstructural aspects of the protein contribute to the VCD on a roughly equal footing, a similar correlation of the chymotrypsin amide V VCD with that of 0-sheet models is not as clear. In addition, the VCD of “random-coil”-type proteins is found to be clearly related to VCD results from “random-coil” polypeptides. Finally, simulations are presented to postulate the expected VCD for protein structures having conformations that lie between the limiting cases discussed here.
