Zusammenfassung: | Copyright 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd A high-microwave-frequency/high-magnetic-field pulsed electron-nuclear double resonance (ENDOR) study performed at 94 GHz on the flavin semiquinone cofactor of Xenopus laevis (6-4) photolyase in its neutral radical state is presented. Although the principal values of the flavin radical's g-matrix are not fully resolved in the 94-GHz EPR spectrum in a nonoriented sample, the orientation of the principal axes of g is obtained by exploiting the orientation selection of the proton ENDOR signals from the methyl protons at C-8alpha and the deuteron ENDOR signals from D-5 in an enzyme sample in deuterated buffer. This procedure for assigning the orientation of g relative to the molecular frame makes use of commercially available ENDOR instrumentation without the necessity to perform single-crystal studies |
