Peptides and proteins are naturally chiral molecular systems so that sensing their structure
and conformation with chirality-based spectral methods is an obvious and long-used …

Abstract Vibrational Circular Dichroism (VCD) is a unique and relatively new spectroscopic
technique that is capable of determining an absolute configuration of chiral molecules. VCD …

Stimulated by the increasing importance of chiral molecules as pharmaceuticals and the
need for enantiomerically pure drugs, techniques in chiral chemistry have been expanded …

Vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectra in the 1800− 1400 cm-1 region have been
measured for the first time for protein films prepared from aqueous buffer solutions. These …

Vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) is a widely used standard method for determination of
absolute stereochemistry, and somewhat less so for biomolecule characterization and …

Abstract The fragment Aβ (25–35) of the Alzheimer's amyloid β-peptide, like its full-length
peptide Aβ (1–42), has shown neurotoxic activities in cultured cells. The conformational …

VCD versus ECD spectroscopy. Peptides rich in aromatic residues yield anomalous far-UV
electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectra that preclude secondary structure assignment …

Vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) has become a standard method for determination of
absolute stereochemistry, particularly now that reliable commercial instrumentation has …
