General description

The fluorescence excitation spectra of 9-anthracenecarbonitrile has been studied.

Application

9-Anthracenecarbonitrile was used to study the mechanism of charge separation within phenothiazine (PTZH) or phenoxazine (PXZH), and 9-cyanoanthracene(electron acceptor).

A serine residue located in the active site of myosin head (S1) was labelled by 9-anthroylnitrile, an amino group located in the central domain of S1 was labelled by 7-diethylamino-3-(4'-isothio-cyanato-phenyl)-4-methylcoumari n, a cysteine residue located near the C-terminus of S1

Fluorescence excitation spectra of the S(1)-S(0) origin band of 9-cyanoanthracene have been observed under a uniform electric field up to 200 kV/cm to explore pendular-state spectrum of an asymmetric-top molecule close to the strong field limit. The observed spectra exhibit

It has been shown that one of the 12 serine residues within the 23 kDa segment of myosin subfragment 1 can be covalently modified with a fluorescent probe 9-anthroylnitrile (ANN) [Hiratsuka, T. (1989) J. Biol. Chem. 264 (30), 18188-18194]. To

The fluorescent probe, 9-anthroylnitrile (ANN), can selectively attach to Ser-180 at the ATP-binding site of subfragment 1 (S1) of skeletal muscle myosin [J. Biol. Chem. 278 (2003) 31891]. We have found that MgATP, MgATPgammaS, MgADP.AlF(4) or MgPP(i), but not MgADP

In order to study the conformational changes associated with formation of the stable ternary complex of myosin subfragment-1 (S-1) with ADP and orthovanadate (Vi), S-1 was fluorescently labeled with 9-anthroylnitrile, 4-fluoro-7-nitrobenz-2-oxa-1,3-diazole, and 5-(iodoacetamido) fluorescein at the 23-, 50-, and 20-kDa
