β¦ Synopsis
Complex formation of poly(g1utamic acid) with cupric ions in aqueous solution was investigated by three different methods: optical spectroscopy, optical rotatory dispersion, and electron spin resonance. Formation of a characteristic complex wm found to occur in a p H region suitable for the helix-coil transition. An analysis of the ESR spectrum of the complex is given, and the results of calculation of bonding parameters suggest that the bond between copper and nitrogen atoms had an appreciably covalent character. The change in the secondary structure of the polymer as a result of complex formation is discussed.

The interaction between ionizable carboxyl groups and the conformation of poly-(glutamic acid) (PGA) in aqueous solution were investigated by the mechanical method. The dynamic rigidity of the PGA solution has a maximum value at the pH corresponding to about 50% neutralization point. This may be due
Four oligomers of a-L-glutamic acid with ends blocked by nonionizable protecting groups were studied in 0.1M NaC104 solution using potentiometric measurements. The titrations were analyzed using a pit-mapping method. The results are compared with those obtained with the corresponding polymer. The su
Methods for the covalent modification in aqueous solution of poly-β₯-Dglutamic acid from Bacillus licheniformis have been studied. Co-derivatization of a synthetic UV-absorbent amine and ethanolamine, using a water-soluble carbodi-imide coupling agent, yielded a water-soluble modified polymer. Deriva
