We have expanded our reference set of proteins used in the estimation of protein secondary structure by CD spectroscopy from 29 to 37 proteins by including 3 additional globular proteins with known X-ray structure and 5 denatured proteins. We have also modified the self-consistent method for analyzing protein CD spectra, SELCON3, by including a new selection criterion developed by W. C. Johnson, Jr. (Proteins Struct. Funct. Genet. 35, 307-312, 1999). The secondary structure corresponding to the denatured proteins was approximated to be 90% unordered, owing to the spectral similarity of the denatured proteins and unordered structures. We examined the thermal denaturation of ribonuclease T1 by CD using both the original and expanded sets of reference proteins and obtained more consistent results with the expanded set. The expanded set of reference proteins will be helpful for the determination of protein secondary structure from protein CD spectra with higher reliability, especially of proteins with significant unordered structure content and/or in the course of denaturation.
