Structure-Activity Relationship in Biomembranes Investigated by Infrared-ATR Spectroscopy

  • Conference paper
Biologically Active Molecules

Abstract

Infrared attenuated total reflection (IR-ATR) spectroscopy is shown to be a sensitive tool to get structural information in aqueous environment on a molecular level. The technique is optimum if the sample is immobilized in an oriented way. In this paper we report on the formation of lipid bilayer membranes which are then used for interaction studies with local anesthetics and as a support for the oriented adsorption of membrane fragments with incorporated Na,K-ATPase (Na,K-pump).
