    Notes: Summary 2D 1H NMR spectroscopy of two α-helical peptides which differ in their amphipathicity has been used to investigate the relationships between amide-proton chemical shifts, amide-proton exchange rates, temperature, and trifluoroethanol (TFE) concentration. In 50% TFE, in which the peptides are maximally helical, the amide-proton chemical shift and temperature coefficient patterns are very similar to each other in each peptide. Temperature coefficients from −10 to −6 ppb/K, usually indicative of the lack of intramolecular hydrogen bonds, were observed even for hydrophobic amino acids in the center of the α-helices. However, slow hydrogen isotope exchange for residues from 4 to 16 in both 18-mer helices indicates intact intramolecular hydrogen bonds over most of the length of these peptides. Based on these anomalous observations, we suggest that the pattern of amide-proton shifts in α-helices in H2O/TFE solvents is dominated by bifurcated intermolecular hydrogen-bond formation between the backbone carbonyl groups and TFE. The amide-proton chemical shift changes with increasing temperature may be interpreted by a disruption of intermolecular hydrogen bonds between carbonyl groups and the TFE in TFE/water rather than by the length of intramolecular hydrogen bonds in α-helices.

    Notes: Abstract Translational diffusion coefficients and catalytic activities were measured for the integral membrane protein diacylglycerol kinase (DAGK) in a variety of types of detergent micelles. Despite the structural diversity of the detergents examined, the translational diffusion coefficients observed for DAGK spanned a fairly limited range of values: 2.7 to 4.7 (× 10-7cm2/s). No general correlation was observed between the diffusion coefficients for the detergent-DAGK aggregates and the sizes of the corresponding protein-free micelles. These results indicate that the effective molecular weights of the DAGK-detergent aggregates were determined more by the structural properties of the protein than by the properties of the detergents. The catalytic activity of DAGK in detergents having medium-length alkyl chains such as dodecylphosphocholine or decylmaltoside was usually observed to be substantially higher than in short-chain detergents such as octylphosphocholine or octylglucoside. Taken together, the diffusion and activity results indicate that medium-chain detergents are generally preferred for use in NMR studies of complex membrane proteins because they are no worse than short-chained detergents in terms of increasing the effective molecular weight of the protein of interest while they are considerably better at maintaining native-like protein conformation. Among the 10 detergents examined, only sodium dodecylsulfate was observed to be unable to support DAGK activity under any conditions examined, suggesting that this well-known protein denaturant should be used with care in studies of complex membrane proteins.

    Notes: Abstract A computer program (ORB) has been developed to predict 1H,13C and 15N NMR chemical shifts of previouslyunassigned proteins. The program makes use of the information contained in achemical shift database of previously assigned proteins supplemented by astatistically derived averaged chemical shift database in which the shifts arecategorized according to their residue, atom and secondary structure type[Wishart et al. (1991) J. Mol. Biol., 222, 311–333]. The predictionprocess starts with a multiple alignment of all previously assigned proteinswith the unassigned query protein. ORB uses the sequence and secondarystructure alignment program XALIGN for this task [Wishart et al. (1994)CABIOS, 10, 121–132; 687–688]. The prediction algorithm in ORB isbased on a scoring of the known shifts for each sequence. The scores dependon global sequence similarity, local sequence similarity, structuralsimilarity and residue similarity and determine how much weight one particularshift is given in the prediction process. In situations where no applicablepreviously assigned chemical shifts are available, the shifts derived from theaveraged database are used. In addition to supplying the user with predictedchemical shifts, ORB calculates a confidence value for every prediction. Theseconfidence values enable the user to judge which predictions are the mostaccurate and they are particularly useful when ORB is incorporated into acomplete autoassignment package. The usefulness of ORB was tested on threemedium-sized proteins: an interleukin-8 analog, a troponin C synthetic peptideheterodimer and cardiac troponin C. Excellent results are obtained if ORB isable to use the chemical shifts of at least one highly homologous sequence.ORB performs well as long as the sequence identity between proteins with knownchemical shifts and the new sequence is not less than 30%.

    Notes: Abstract A suite of programs called CAMRA (Computer Aided Magnetic Resonance Assignment) has been developed for computer assisted residue-specific assignments of proteins. CAMRA consists of three units: ORB, CAPTURE and PROCESS. ORB predicts NMR chemical shifts for unassigned proteins using a chemical shift database of previously assigned homologous proteins supplemented by a statistically derived chemical shift database in which the shifts are categorized according to their residue, atom and secondary structure type. CAPTURE generates a list of valid peaks from NMR spectra by filtering out noise peaks and other artifacts and then separating the derived peak list into distinct spin systems. PROCESS combines the chemical shift predictions from ORB with the spin systems identified by CAPTURE to obtain residue specific assignments. PROCESS ranks the top choices for an assignment along with scores and confidence values. In contrast to other auto-assignment programs, CAMRA does not use any connectivity information but instead is based solely on matching predicted shifts with observed spin systems. As such, CAMRA represents a new and unique approach for the assignment of protein NMR spectra. CAMRA will be particularly useful in conjunction with other assignment methods and under special circumstances, such as the assignment of flexible regions in proteins where sufficient NOE information is generally not available. CAMRA was tested on two medium-sized proteins belonging to the chemokine family. It was found to be effective in predicting the assignment providing a database of previously assigned proteins with at least 30% sequence identity is available. CAMRA is versatile and can be used to include and evaluate heteronuclear and three-dimensional experiments.

    Notes: The HPLC retention behavior of three complete single methionine and methionine sulfoxide replacement sets of two 18-mer model peptides and neuropeptide Y (NPY) were investigated. All peptides were prepared by multiple solid-phase peptide synthesis. Plotting the retention time differences between methionine and methionine sulfoxide analogues vs the position of replacement shows that potentially α-helical peptides become helical on binding during reversed-phase high performance liquid chromatography. In the case of an amphipathic α-helix, the retention time differences change periodically with a 3-4 repeat pattern, which allow the location of amphipathic helical structures. Replacements in nonamphipathic α-helical domains cause local preferential binding areas and lead to sequence-dependent retention time profiles. Methionine replacement studies of NPY suggest an unstructured or extended conformation from Tyr1 to Ala12 connected to a well-defined amphipathic α-helix from Pro13 to Arg35. The assignment is confirmed by comparison of nuclear Overhauser effects based two-dimensional 1H-nmr spectroscopy and utilization of the CαH shift index method in 50% trifluoroethanol/50% water. © 1996 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Description / Table of Contents: Synthesis of Medium and Large Rings, XXIII. Photochemical Rearrangement of 3,6-Alkanooxepine-4,5-dicarboxylic EstersIrradiation of the 3,6-alkanooxepine-4,5-dicarboxylic esters 1a-d affords the tricyclic aldehydes 2a-d, the constitutions of which were determined by X-ray structural analysis of 2a and 2d. The disubstituted 3,6-decanooxepine 1e gives in low yield the bridged dihydrofuran 4b, whose structure was also established by X-ray analysis. Mechanistic investigations show, that the photochemical rearrangement 1 → 2 takes place via dihydrofurans 3, cyclopropane carbaldehydes 6, and cyclopentadienecarbaldehydes 7.

Das analoge disubstituierte 3,6-Decanooxepin 1e führt unter anderem zum überbrückten Dihydrofuran 4b, für das ebenfalls eine Röntgenstrukturanalyse vorliegt. Mechanistische Untersuchungen zeigen, daß die Photoumlagerung 1 → 2 über Dihydrofurane 3, Cyclopropancarbaldehyde 6 und Cyclopentadiencarbaldehyde 7 verläuft.

    Description / Table of Contents: Synthesis of Medium and Large Rings, XXV.  -  Synthesis of Functionalized trans-Hydrindanes with angular α-Ketoester GroupRuthenium tetroxide oxidation of the tricyclic methanohydroazulenes 1a and 1d gives directly the trans-hydrindanone 2b with an angular α-ketoester group. The same oxidation of the acetal 1c affords the trans-hydrindane 2a with two α-ketoester functions. 2b can be further oxidized to the angular carboxy or methoxycarbonyl derivatives 2c and 2d. With DABCO as base the hydrindanone 2b undergoes a diastereoselective intramolecular aldol addition giving the exo-trimethylenenorbornanone 4. The trans-anellation of 2-4 was established by the X-ray structural analysis of 4 and by the 13C-NMR spectra of all compounds.
    Notes: Die Rutheniumtetroxid-Oxidation der tricyclischen Methanolaydroazulene 1a und 1d liefert das trans-Hydrindanon 2b mit angularer α-Ketoestergruppe, während die gleiche Reaktion mit dem Acetal 1c zum trans-Hydrindan 2a mit zwei α-Ketoestergruppen führt. 2b kann zu 2c und 2d mit angularer Carboxy- oder Methoxycarbonylgruppe weiter oxidiert werden. Das Hydrindanon 2b geht unter dem Einfluß von DABCO eine diastereoselektive intramolekulare Aldoladdition zum exo-Trimethylennorbornanon 4 ein. Die trans-Verknüpfung von 2-4 folgt aus der Röntgenstrukturanalyse von 4 und aus den 13C-NMR-Spektren aller Verbindungen.
