Figure 13. Characteristic CD spectra
CD spectroscopy can be used to estimate the secondary structural content of a protein. Each secondary structural type has a characteristic spectrum. α-helical proteins like Insulin (blue) have a double hump spectrum with peaks at negative bands at 222 and 208 nm and a positive band at 193 nm. Proteins with well-defined antiparallel β-sheets like Immunoglobulins (red) have negative bands at 218 nm and positive bands at 195 nm. Disordered proteins such as the micro-exon gene 14 (green) have very low signal above 210 nm and negative bands near 195 nm. The [θ]MR values are large and before plotting them, they are often divided by 1000 to make the y-axis scale more appropriate, this change is reflected in the units where [θ]MR is multiplied by 10−3 to maintain the original values.
