Low frequency vibrations and structural characterization of a murine IgG2a monoclonal antibody studied by Raman and IR spectroscopies

The Raman and ir spectra of a murine IgG2a monoclonal antibody molecule are reported. In accordance with previous studies on immunoglobulins, the secondary structure is predominantly of the β‐sheet type. The low frequency region of the Raman spectrum was also analyzed in detail. A structured band wi...

Zusammenfassung:The Raman and ir spectra of a murine IgG2a monoclonal antibody molecule are reported. In accordance with previous studies on immunoglobulins, the secondary structure is predominantly of the β‐sheet type. The low frequency region of the Raman spectrum was also analyzed in detail. A structured band with two maxima near 43 and 94 cm−1 was observed. This band has been attributed to vibrations of elastic body. The results are interpreted using a simple elastic model. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Biopoly 53: 342–349, 2000
