Attenuated total reflection Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy of thin hydrated films of soluble and membrane protein included in a phospholipid bilayer is shown to provide useful information as to the secondary structure of the protein. The analysis of the amide I band of deutered samples by Fourier self-deconvolution followed by a curve fitting was performed by a new procedure in which all the input parameters are generated by the computer rather than by the investigator. The results of this analysis provide a correct estimation of the .alpha.-helix and .beta.-sheet structure content with a standard deviation of 8.6% when X-ray structures are taken as a reference. We also show that the orientation of the different secondary structures resolved by the Fourier self-deconvolution/curve-fitting procedure and of the phospholipid acyl chains can be simultaneously evaluated for membrane proteins reconstituted in a lipid bilayer. Of special interest for reconstitution of membrane proteins, the lipid protein ratio can be accurately and quickly determined from the infrared spectrum.
