Influence of High Pressure on the Secondary Structure of Poly-L-Lysine
Conference paper
Abstract
In this study the influence of high-pressure treatment on the secondary structure conformation of Poly-L-Lysine was studied by circular dichroism measurement after treatment with pressures up to 600 MPa and various dwell times. Before HP treatment PLL was transformed into certain secondary structures by setting pH and temperature. Detected alterations in secondary structure indicate dependency on pressure altitude and dwell time.
