FAD Resonance Raman spectra of (6-4) photolyase having neutral semiquinoid and oxidized forms of FAD. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations are carried out on the neutral semiquinone. The marker band of a neutral semiquinone at 1606 cm-1 in H2O, splits into two comparable bands at 1594 and 1608 cm-1 in D2O, and similarly, that at 1522 cm-1 in H2O does into three bands at 1456, 1508, and 1536 cm-1 in D2O. This D2O effect is recognized only after being oxidized once and photoreduced to form a semiquinone again, but not by simple H/D exchange of solvent. Some Raman bands of the oxidized form are observed at significantly low frequencies (1621, 1576 cm-1) and with band splittings (1508/1493, 1346/1320 cm-1). These Raman spectral characteristics indicate strong H-bonding interactions (at N5-H, N1), a fairly hydrophobic environment, and an electron-lacking feature in benzene ring of the FAD cofactor, which seems to specifically control the reactivity of (6-4) photolyase Arabidopsis thaliana
