Raman spectra of gp5 and complexes of gp5 with poly(rA) and poly(dA) have been determined and analysed. From a fit of the amide I-band with model spectra it follows that the secondary structure of gp5 contains 52% beta-sheet, 28% undefined conformation and 19% alpha-helix. The band at 1032 cm-1 due to phenylalanine has an anomalous intensity both in the spectra of the complexes and the free protein. This possibly indicates a stacked structure present in the protein. Binding of gp5 to poly(rA) and poly(dA) influences the intensity of bands near 1338 and 1480 cm-1 which are considered to be marker-bands for the phosphate-sugar-base conformer. A change in conformation of the nucleotides is also reflected by vibrations originating in the phosphate- and sugar-residues of the backbone. In the spectrum of complexed poly(rA) the intensity of the conformation sensitive band at 813 cm-1, which is due to the phosphodiester group, is zero. It seems that gp5 forces poly(rA) and poly(dA) to a similar conformation. A marker band for stacking interaction in poly(rA) indicates that stacking interactions in the complex have increased.
