Article Citation - WoS: 2Citation - Scopus: 2Biosorption of Reactive Dyes by Novel Bacterium Leclercia Adecarboxylata: Complete Removal of Reactive Black 5 and Molecular Insights Into the Adsorption Mechanism(Wiley, 2025) Sen, Seda; Korkmaz, Filiz; Kilic, Nur KocberberLeclercia adecarboxylata isolated from the D & uuml;den Waterfall (Turkey) was utilized as a biosorbent for the removal of Reactive Black 5 (RB5), Setazol Blue BRF-X (BRF-X), Setazol Navy Blue SBG (SNB), and Setazol Turquoise Blue G (STBG). Of the dyes, RB5 was removed with the highest efficiency, 97.4% after 60 min. The effect of parameters such as pH (3-9), initial biosorbent dose (0.1-2.0 g/L), and initial dye concentration (25-1200 mg/L) on the biosorption of RB5 was investigated. Increasing the biosorbent dosage from 0.1 to 2.0 g/L enhanced the RB5 removal from 55.3% to 100% within 10 min. The complete removal (100%) of RB5 was achieved in media with 2.0 g/L biosorbent and 25 mg/L RB5 at pH 3 after 10 min. Additionally, the soluble extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) of L. adecarboxylata were found to consist of proteins, lipids, nucleic acids, and polysaccharides according to Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis. The EPS was found to play a crucial role in dye removal, forming chemical interactions with dye molecules. Zeta potential analysis was used to evaluate the charge distribution on the biosorbent surface (-12.6 +/- 1.1 mV) and its interactions in the biosorption process. Kinetic and isotherm models suggested a complex interaction mechanism between the biomass and the dye. Adsorption isotherm data were analyzed via nine isotherm models. Among them, the Hill model was found to be the best fit for describing the equilibrium adsorption process of the RB5 (R2 = 0.9993). Overall, the applied models elucidated the influence of both physical and chemical interactions on the mechanism. Kinetic studies revealed that the adsorption of RB5 fit a pseudo-second-order kinetic model. The unique biochemical composition of the indigenous L. adecarboxylata biosorbent provided a high affinity for RB5, offering a sustainable, rapid, and economical solution for the treatment of dye-polluted water.Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 9Ir-Spectroscopic Characterization of an Elongated Ompg Mutant(Elsevier Science inc, 2015) Korkmaz, Filiz; van Pee, Katharina; Yildiz, OezkanOmpG is a nonselective, pH dependent outer membrane protein from Escherichia coli. It consists of 281 residues, forming a 14-stranded beta-sheet structure. In this study, OmpG is extended by 38 amino acids to produce a 16-stranded beta-barrel (OmpG-16S). The resulting protein is investigated by IR-spectroscopy. The secondary structure, pH-dependent opening/closing mechanism, buffer accessibility and thermal stability of OmpG-16S are compared to OmpG-WT. The results show that OmpG-16S is responsive to pH change as indicated by the Amide I band shift upon a switch from acidic to neutral pH. This spectral shift is consistent with that observed in OmpG-WT, which confirms the existence of structural differences consistent with the presence of the open or closed state. Secondary structure analysis after curve-fitting of Amide I band revealed that the additional residues do not fold into beta-sheet; rather they are in the form of turns and unordered structure. In thermal stability experiments, OmpG-16S is found to be as stable as OmpG-WT. Additionally, H/D exchange experiments showed no difference in the exchange rate of OmpG-16S between the acidic and alkaline pH, suggesting that the loop L6 is no longer sufficient to block the pore entrance at acidic pH.

The spectral features are correlated with observable urine components. The variation of spectra within a healthy population is quantified and a library of reference spectra is constructed. Using the band assignments, these spectra are compared with both age-wise and gender-wise. Children show the least intensity variations compared to both adult groups. Young adults show the highest variation, particularly in the 1650 to 1400 cm(-1) and 1200 to 900 cm(-1) regions. These results indicate the importance of the size of the control group in comparative studies utilizing FTIR. Age-wise comparisons reveal that phosphate and sulfate excretion decreases with age, and that the variance of phosphate among individuals is higher with adults. As for gender-wise comparisons, females show a slightly higher citrate content at 1390 cm(-1) regardless of the age and they show a higher variance in the 1200 to 1000 cm(-1) region when compared to men.Article Web Server-Based Structure Prediction as a Supplementary Tool for Basic and Acidic Fgf Secondary Structure Analysis Using Ftir Spectroscopy and a Case Study Comparing Curve-Fit With the Model-Based Structure Inspection of the Ftir Data(DergiPark, 2023) Korkmaz,F.; Mollaoglu,A.; Adiguzel,Y.Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy can provide relative proportion of secondary structure elements in a protein. However, extracting this information from the Amide I band area of an FTIR spectrum is difficult. In addition to experimental methods, several protein secondary structure prediction algorithms serving on the Web can be used as supplementary tools requiring only protein amino acid sequences as inputs. In addition, web-server based docking tools can provide structure information when proteins are mixed and potentially interacting. Accordingly, we aimed to utilize web-server based structure predictors in fibroblast growth factor (FGF) protein structure determination through the FTIR data. Seven such predictors were selected and tested on basic FGF (bFGF) protein, to predict FGF secondary structure. Results were compared to available structure-files deposited in the Protein Data Bank (PDB). Then, FTIR spectra of bFGF and the acidic form of the protein with 50 folds more bovine serum albumin as carrier protein (1FGFA/50BSA) were collected. Optimized Amide I curve-fit parameters of bFGF with low (<5) root mean square deviation (RMSD) in the PDB data and the predictions were obtained. Those parameters were applied in curve-fitting of 1FGFA/50BSA data. Secondary structure was inspected also through applying models derived from the previously established methods. Results of model-based secondary structure estimation from FTIR data were compared with secondary structure calculated as 1 part contribution from 1FGFA/1BSA complex and 49 parts contribution from BSA. Complex structure was obtained through docking. RMSD in the PDB data and the predictions were respectively 3.05 and 2.39 with the optimized parameters. Those parameters did not work well for the 1FGFA/50BSA data. Models are better in this case, wherein one model (Model-1’) with the lowest average RMSD has 8.38 RMSD in the bFGF and 4.78 RMSD in the 1FGFA/50BSA structures. Model-based secondary structure predictions are better for determining bFGF and 1FGFA/50BSA secondary structures through the curve-fit approach that we followed, under non-optimal conditions like protein/BSA mixtures. Web servers can assist experimental studies investigating structures with unknown structures. Any web-based structure prediction supporting the experimental results would be enforcing the findings, but the unsupported results would not necessarily falsify the experimental data. © (2023), (DergiPark).

The trials were performed at pH 8, which resulted in the highest bioremediation rate of 64.6% in media containing 21.2 mg L-1 dye. As the dye concentration increased, the pollutant removal decreased, with the maximum bioremoval rate of 70.3%. The removal capacity was increased with an increase in biomass concentration; the highest yield of 91.3% was obtained in media containing 14.2 mg L-1 dye and 12% (v/v) biomass. In nanoremediation studies, the bacterial consortium was immobilized on cellulose acetate nanofiber mats (CA-NFM). Scanning electron microscopic micrographs showed that bead-free nanofiber mats were effective in immobilizing bacterial cells. Moreover, nanofiber structures were capable of supporting exopolysaccharides formation, as confirmed by Fourier transform & imath;nfrared spectroscopy. The bacterial consortium immobilized on CA-NFM showed a maximum bioremoval rate of 56.5%. Reusability tests demonstrated that the consortium immobilized CA-NFM could be used at least five times. Furthermore, after leaving the mat for 1 month at 4 degrees C, it was still usable, and the removal efficiency was found to be 45.4%. Based on our findings, bacteria immobilized on CA-NFM have the potential to be used as highly effective and versatile nanobiotechnological biological sorbents in the treatment of wastewater containing dyes.Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 9Urinalysis of Individuals With Renal Hyperfiltration Using Atr-Ftir Spectroscopy(Nature Portfolio, 2022) Kurultak, Ilhan; Sarigul, Neslihan; Kodal, Nil Su; Korkmaz, FilizAbnormal increased glomerular filtration rate (GFR), otherwise known as renal hyperfiltration (RHf), is associated with an increased risk of chronic kidney disease and cardiovascular mortality. Although it is not considered as a disease alone in medicine today, early detection of RHf is essential to reducing risk in a timely manner. However, detecting RHf is a challenge since it does not have a practical biochemical marker that can be followed or quantified. In this study, we tested the ability of ATR-FTIR spectroscopy to distinguish 17 individuals with RHf (hyperfiltraters; RHf (+)), from 20 who have normal GFR (normofiltraters; RHf(-)), using urine samples. Spectra collected from hyperfiltraters were significantly different from the control group at positions 1621, 1390, 1346, 933 and 783/cm. Intensity changes at these positions could be followed directly from the absorbance spectra without the need for pre-processing. They were tentatively attributed to urea, citrate, creatinine, phosphate groups, and uric acid, respectively. Using principal component analysis (PCA), major peaks of the second derivative forms for the classification of two groups were determined. Peaks at 1540, 1492, 1390, 1200, 1000 and 840/cm were significantly different between the two groups. Statistical analysis showed that the spectra of normofiltraters are similar; however, those of hyperfiltraters show diversity at multiple positions that can be observed both from the absorbance spectra and the second derivative profiles. This observation implies that RHf can simultaneously affect the excretion of many substances, and that a spectroscopic analysis of urine can be used as a rapid and non-invasive pre-screening tool.Master Thesis Gas(x)se(1-x) Katmanlı Karışım Kristallerinin Yapısal ve Elipsometrik Özellikleri(2017) Habaibi, Om-alhana; Işık, Mehmet; Özkan, Filiz KorkmazGaSxSe1-x katmanlı karışım kristalleri yapısal ve optiksel karakterizasyon teknikleri kullanılarak incelendi. Bridgman metodu ile büyütülen örneklerin yapısal karakterizasyonu x-ışını kırınımı (XRD), enerji saçılım spektroskopisi (EDS) ve Fourier transform kızılötesi spektroskopisi teknikleri kullanılarak başarıldı. Karışım kristallerinin kompozisyonal bağımlılığı EDS deneyleri ile elde edildi. Ölçümlerin sonuçları, kullanılan örneklerin x değerinin 0.25 aralıklar ile 0 ile 1 arasında olduğu kompozisyona denk geldiğini gösterdi. Örneklerin kristal yapısı XRD ölçümlerinin sonuçlarını ve analiz için bir yazılım programı kullanarak açığa çıkarıldı. FTIR tayfları x=0, 0.25 ve 0.50 kompozisyonlarındaki örneklerin içerisinde çoklu fonon emiliminin var olduğunu gösterdi. XRD ve FTIR deneylerinin sonuçları kullanılan kompozisyonlar arasında ilişkilendirildi. Örneklerin optiksel karakterizasyonu 1.2-6.0 eV spektral aralıpında gerçekleştirilen elipsometri deneyleri ile tamamlandı. Ölçüm sisteminin çıkış datası optiksel parametrelerin spektraş bağımlılığını gösteren dataya çevrildi. Elipsometrik data örneklerin bant boşluğu enerjilerini elde etmek için kullanıldı. Elde edilen bant enerjisi değerleri karışım kristallerinde sülfür kompozisyonu arttıkça bant enerjisinin 2.4 eV'tan (x = 0) 2.57 eV'a (x = 1) arttığını gösterdi. Ortaya çıkarılan bant enerji değerlerine göre bant boşluğu enerjisinin kompozisyona bağlılığını gösteren bir grafik çizildi.Article Citation - WoS: 96Citation - Scopus: 100Effect of Progesterone on Dppc Membrane: Evidence for Lateral Phase Separation and Inverse Action in Lipid Dynamics(Elsevier Science inc, 2005) Korkmaz, F; Severcan, FInteractions of progesterone with zwitterionic dipalmitoyl phosphatidylcholine (DPPC) triultilamellar liposomes were investigated as a function of temperature and progesterone concentration by using three non-invasive techniques namely Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, turbidity at 440 nm, and differential scanning calorimetry. The results reveal that progesterone changes the physical properties of DPPC bilayers by decreasing the main phase-transition temperature, abolishing the pre-transition, broadening the phase-transition profile, disordering the system both in gel and liquid crystalline phase, increasing the dynamics at low concentrations whereas stabilizing the membrane at high concentrations, and inducing phase separation. Progesterone does not change the hydration of the C=O groups, while it strengthens the hydrogen bonding between the PO (2) over bar groups of lipids and the water molecules around.

It has been show that the effect of progesterone on membrane dynamics is dependent on progesterone concentration. At 1 mol%, which is close to physiological level, progesterone behaves differently. At this concentration the decrease in dynamics is more noticeable. Additionally a dramatic decrease in the strength of hydrogen bonding in the interfacial region of the bilayer is also observed. When concentration increases up to 12 mol% opposite behaviour is observed at all interactions. Above 12 mol%, progesterone-DPPC interactions shows almost linear plot.Article Citation - WoS: 15Citation - Scopus: 13K+-induced Conformational Changes in the Trimeric Betaine Transporter Betp Monitored by Atr-Ftir Spectroscopy(Elsevier Science Bv, 2013) Korkmaz, Filiz; Ressl, Susanne; Ziegler, Christine; Maentele, WernerThe trimeric Na+-coupled betaine symporter BetP from Corynebactrium glutamicum adjusts transport activity according to the external osmolality. BetP senses the increasing internal K+ concentration, which is an immediate consequence of osmotic upshift in C. glutamicum. It is assumed that BetP specifically binds potassium to yet unidentified binding sites, thereby inducing conformational changes resulting in activation. Atomic structures of BetP were obtained in the absence of potassium allowing only a speculative glimpse on a putative mechanism of K+-induced transport activation. The structural data suggest that activation in BetP is crucially linked to its trimeric state involving an interaction network between several arginines and glutamates and aspartates. Here, we describe the effect of K+-induced activation on the specific ionic interaction sites in terminal domains and loops and on the protomer-protomer interactions within the trimer studied by ATR-FTIR spectroscopy. We suggest that arginine and aspartate and/or glutamate residues at the trimeric interface rearrange upon K+-induced activation, although they remain assembled in an interaction network. Our data propose a two-step mechanism comprising first a change in solvent exposure of charged residues and second a modification of their interaction sites in a partner-switching manner. FTIR reveals a higher alpha-helical content than expected from the X-ray structures that we attribute to the structurally unresolved N-terminal domain modulating regulation. In situ H-1/H-2 exchange studies point toward an altered exposure of backbone regions to buffer solution upon activation, most likely due to conformational changes in both terminal domains, which further affects ionic interactions within the trimer.
