Abstract

We have recorded conformer-selective, gas-phase photoelectron spectra of α-lactalbumin derived multianions generated by electrospraying solutions of both the native protein and its denatured form (as prepared by breaking the sulfur–sulfur bonds by chemical reduction). Three different groups of gas-phase multianion conformers have been observed and characterized. Highly-folded and partially-unfolded structures are obtained from solutions of the native protein. Only highly-elongated conformers are observed upon electrospraying the denatured protein. Adiabatic detachment energies were determined at several negative charge states for each conformer group. In comparison to highly-elongated conformations, highly-folded structures show a steeper decrease of electron binding energy with increasing negative charge. By comparing experimental detachment energies for highly-elongated structures with the predictions of a simple electrostatic model calculation, we have determined the effective dielectric shielding constant.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
