520 3 |a The structural and dynamical interaction of proteins with their microenvironment in disordered matrices plays a decisive role for their function; EPR spectroscopy is a powerful tool for shading light onto the molecular mechanisms of this protein-matrix interplay. To clarify the molecular mechanisms of disaccharide bioprotection, we studied the structure and dynamics of spin-labeled systems and photosynthetic reaction centers (RCs) in sucrose and trehalose matrices at different hydration levels by means of cw and pulse high-field 95GHz (W-band) EPR as well as by FTIR. In this minireview, we summarize and discuss EPR and FTIR experiments showing that the anhydrobiotic state of the RC-trehalose system (1) is not the result of matrix-induced changes of the local structure of the charge-separated radical-pair cofactors, $${\text{P}}_{865}^{ \cdot + }$$ P 865 · + and $${\text{Q}}_{\text{A}}^{ \cdot - }$$ Q A · - , and (2) is not the result of changes of local dynamics and local hydrogen bonding of QA in its binding pocket. Rather, the extreme impairment of RC dynamics caused by incorporation into the dehydrated trehalose matrix, which also protects it against thermal denaturation, originates in the high rigidity, already at room temperature, of the dry trehalose glass matrix coating the RC protein surface. This surface hydrogen-bonding scaffold shifts the correlation time of thermal conformational fluctuations into the non-biological time domain. Another intriguing aspect of disaccharide bioprotection is the superior efficiency of trehalose versus sucrose matrices in stabilizing the anhydrobiotic state of proteins. To clarify the molecular basis of this specificity, glassy trehalose-water and sucrose-water binary systems, incorporating a nitroxide radical as spin probe, have been studied by high-field W-band EPR spectroscopy at different water contents. Analysis of the EPR spectra revealed a different structural and dynamical organization in the sucrose and trehalose matrix, only the trehalose being homogeneous in terms of residual water and nitroxide distribution.
