## Abstract We have isolated 5 families of proteins from human red blood cell membranes and characterized their secondary structure by ultraviolet circular dichroism measurements. The protein families were prepared by selective solubilization from ghosts under nondenaturing conditions. We find that
The tryptophan fluorescence of two membrane proteins (outer membrane protein A and lactose permease), a 21-residue hydrophobic peptide, three soluble proteins (rat serum albumin, ribonuclease Tt, and azurin), and N-acetyltryptophanamide (NATA) was investigated by time-resolved measurements extended
## Abstract A method of monitoring slow rotational motions of proteins from the decay of the intrinsic phosphorescence is described. The phosphorescence is excited with a 10βΞΌsec pulse of vertically polarized light from an air gap lamp, and the anisotropy was computed as a function of time from the
Preferential interactions between proteins and metals play an important role in a great number of physiological and biochemical processes. With these premises, the inΓuence of LiCl on the conformation and function of lysozyme has been the main object of our studies. Viscometric, densimetric, solubil
