The frequency of the so-called "amide I" band (amide C=O stretching vibration, vC=O) of proteins is discussed in terms of the dihedral angles of the various secondary structures present within proteins. We propose that in the case of intra- or intermolecular hydrogen-bonded amide carbonyl groups the frequency of this absorption can be directly related to the [Formula: see text], ψ angles of the amide moieties for the major secondary structures. Amide I bands at frequencies above those found for non-hydrogen bonded amide carbonyl groups are rationalized in terms of a change in the third dihedral angle, ω. Rotation around the amide C—N bond in sterically demanding structures, such as turns where ω deviates from 180°, is expected to cause an increase in the electron density of the amide carbonyl groups and so increase vC=O to frequencies greater than that seen for unperturbed carbonyl groups. Key words: FT-IR spectroscopy, proteins, structure, dihedral angles.

Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR) with Horizontal Attenuated Total Reflectance (HATR) techniques is used to obtain the FT-IR spectra of five kinds of mosses, such asPtychomitrium dentatum(Mitt.) Jaeg.,Ptychomitrium polyphylloides(C. Muell.) Par.,Ptychomitrium sinense(Mitt.) Jaeg.,Macromitrium syntrichophyllumTher. Etp. Vard., andMacromitrium ferrieiCard. Sz Ther. Based on the comparison of the above mosses in the FT-IR spectra, the region ranging from 4000 to 650 cm−1was selected as the characteristic spectra for analysis. Principal component analysis (PCA) and cluster analysis are considered to identify the five moss species. Because they belong to the homogeneous plants, and have similar chemical components and close FT-IR spectroscopy, PCA and cluster analysis can only give a rough result of classification among the five moss species, Fourier self-deconvolution (FSD) and discrete wavelet transform (DWT) methods are used to enhance the differences between them. We use these methods for further study. Results show that it is an excellent method to use FT-IR spectroscopy combined with FSD and DWT to classify the different species in the same family. FT-IR spectroscopy combined with chemometrics, such as FSD and DWT, can be used as an effective tool in systematic research of bryophytes.
