    Description: Crystalline cholesterol undergoes a phase transition a few degrees below human body temperature. The high-temperature form has an unusually complex structure with 16 independent molecules. In the transition two molecules change side chain conformation, four reorient about their long axes, and ten remain unchanged. The transition mechanism implies relatively nonspecific intermolecular interactions, qualitatively consistent with the behavior of cholesterol in biomembranes. The transition preserves a remarkably closely obeyed pseudosymmetry present in the structure.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Hsu, L Y -- Nordman, C E -- GM15259/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1983 May 6;220(4597):604-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6836303" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Arachidonic acid plays a central role in a biological control system where such oxygenated derivatives as prostaglandins, thromboxanes, and leukotrienes are mediators. The leukotrienes are formed by transformation of arachidonic acid into an unstable epoxide intermediate, leukotriene A4, which can be converted enzymatically by hydration to leukotriene B4, and by addition of glutathione to leukotriene C4. This last compound is metabolized to leukotrienes D4 and E4 by successive elimination of a gamma-glutamyl residue and glycine. Slow-reacting substance of anaphylaxis consists of leukotrienes C4, D4, and E4. The cysteinyl-containing leukotrienes are potent bronchoconstrictors, increase vascular permeability in postcapillary venules, and stimulate mucus secretion. Leukotriene B4 causes adhesion and chemotactic movement of leukocytes and stimulates aggregation, enzyme release, and generation of superoxide in neutrophils. Leukotrienes C4, D4, and E4, which are released from the lung tissue of asthmatic subjects exposed to specific allergens, seem to play a pathophysiological role in immediate hypersensitivity reactions. These leukotrienes, as well as leukotriene B4, have pro-inflammatory effects.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Samuelsson, B -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1983 May 6;220(4597):568-75.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6301011" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Aplysiatoxin and debromoaplysiatoxin, which are isolated from the seaweed, Lyngbya gracilis, differ in their chemical structure only by the presence or absence of a bromine residue in the hydrophilic region. The function and the structure-activity relation of the hydrophilic region are not known. Aplysiatoxin increased malignant transformation, stimulated DNA synthesis, and inhibited the binding of phorbol-12,13-dibutyrate and epidermal growth factor to cell receptors. Debromoaplysiatoxin inhibited the binding of these two substances as strongly as aplysiatoxin but did not increase malignant transformation or stimulate DNA synthesis. These results indicate that a slight change in the chemical structure of the hydrophilic region of aplysiatoxin affects its abilities to increase cell transformation and stimulate DNA synthesis and that the abilities of the tumor promoters to inhibit the binding of phorbol-12,13-dibutyrate and epidermal growth factor are dissociable from their abilities to increase cell transformation and stimulate DNA synthesis under some circumstances.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Shimomura, K -- Mullinix, M G -- Kakunaga, T -- Fujiki, H -- Sugimura, T -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1983 Dec 16;222(4629):1242-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6316505" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The structures of three proteins that regulate gene expression have been determined recently and suggest how these proteins may bind to their specific recognition sites on the DNA. One protein (Cro) is a repressor of gene expression, the second (CAP) usually stimulates gene expression, and the third (lambda repressor) can act as either a repressor or an activator. The three proteins contain a substructure consisting of two consecutive alpha helices that is virtually identical in each case. Structural and amino acid sequence comparisons suggest that this bihelical fold occurs in a number of proteins that regulate gene expression, and is an intrinsic part of the DNA-protein recognition event. The modes of repression and activation by Cro and lambda repressor are understood reasonably well, but the mode of action of CAP is still unclear.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Takeda, Y -- Ohlendorf, D H -- Anderson, W F -- Matthews, B W -- GM20066/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM28138/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- GM30894/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1983 Sep 9;221(4615):1020-6.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6308768" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Resonance Raman spectra of photolyzed carbonmonoxyhemoglobin obtained with 10-nanosecond pulses are compared with the spectra of photolyzed carbonmonoxyhemoglobin stabilized at 80 K. In comparing the deoxy with the photodissociated species, the changes in the Raman spectra are the same for these two experimental regimes. These results show that at ambient and cryogenic temperatures the heme pocket in liganded hemoglobin is significantly different from that of deoxyhemoglobin. It is concluded that measurements of the properties of intermediate species from photodissociated hemoglobin stabilized at low temperatures can be used to probe the short-lived metastable forms of hemoglobin present after photodissociation under biologically relevant solution conditions.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Ondrias, M R -- Friedman, J M -- Rousseau, D L -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1983 May 6;220(4597):615-7.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/6836305" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé La cinétique de la formation et de la transformation des précipités de phosphate de calcium, obtenus en mélangeant de volumes égaux de solutions à 6×10−3 M de calcium total et/ou phosphate total est étudiée à 25°C. Les solutions de phosphate sont préajustées à un pH de 7.4. Les changements de pH et de turbidité des solutions sont suivis simultanément en fonction du temps. Les précipités sont isolés à des intervalles de temps variables et caractérisés par diverses méthodes physico-chimiques. Initialement un précipité avec un rapport molaire Ca/P de 1.5, amorphe aux rayons X et en diffraction électronique, est formé. Le spectre IR indique la présence de PO 4 3− et de HPO 4 2− . Après une période métastable, on observe la précipitation d'un matériel cristallin dans ou sur la phase amorphe. Vingt quatre heures après préparation de l'échantillon les précipités présentent surtout les caractères du phosphate octocalcique.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Die Kinetik der Bildung und Transformation von Calciumphosphat-Niederschlägen wurde bei 25°C untersucht. Es wurden dazu gleiche Volumen von Lösungen gemischt, bei einer Konzentration von 6×10−3M totales Calcium und/oder totales Phosphat. Die Phosphatlösungen wurden zuerst auf pH 7,4 eingestellt. Veränderungen des pH und Trübung der Lösungen wurden gleichzeitig als eine Funktion der Zeit aufgezeichnet. Niederschläge wurden in verschiedenen Zeitintervallen isoliert und mit verschiedenen physiko-chemischen Methoden charakterisiert. Am Anfang wurde ein Niederschlag mit einem molaren Ca/P-Verhältnis von 1,5, im Röntgenbild und in der Elektronendiffraktion amorph, gebildet. Infrarotspektren deuteten die Anwesenheit von PO 4 3− - und HPO 4 2− -Ionen an. Nach einer metastabilen Periode erfolgte ein Niederschlag aus kristallinem Material innerhalb oder auf der amorphen Substanz. 24 Std nach der Herstellung der Proben zeigten die Niederschläge in der Hauptsache die Charakteristiken von Octocalciumphosphat.
    Notes: Abstract The kinetics of the formation and transformation of calcium phosphate precipitates obtained by mixing equal volumes of solutions, 6×10−3 M in total calcium and/or total phosphate was investigated at 25°. The phosphate solutions were preadjusted to pH 7.4. Changes of the pH and turbidity of the solutions were followed simultaneously as a function of time. Precipitates were isolated at various time intervals and characterized by different physicochemical methods. Initially a precipitate with a molar Ca/P ratio of 1.5, amorphous to X-ray and electron diffraction was formed. IR spectra indicated the presence of PO 4 3− and HPO 4 2− ions. After a period of metastability, precipitation of a crystalline material within or upon the amorphous matter occurred. Twenty four hours after sample preparation the precipitates showed mainly the characteristics of octacalcium phosphate.

    Description / Table of Contents: Résumé Des échantillons non lavés de phosphate de calcium amorphe (ACP) contiennent une fraction labile, non remplaçable, riche en phosphate acide avec un rapport Ca/P faible: cette fraction est perdue de façon irréversible au cours du lavage. De l'ACP frais, précipité entre pH 6.6–10.6, varie dans un rapport molaire Ca/P de 1.18 à 1.50 et dans un rapport HPO 4 2− /P total de 33.0% à 10.1%. A pH 7.40, de l'ACP frais a un rapport molaire Ca/P de 1.36±0.02 et contient 22.8 (±2.2)% HPO 4 2− . Les résultats obtenus avec du précipité non lavé ne peuvent s'expliquer par du Ca2+ emprisonné et de l'HPO 4 2− ou du Na+, Cl− et CO 3 2− exogènes. Les phosphates de calcium amorphes constituent une classe de sels ayant des caractères chimiques variables et des propriétés physiques identiques, comparables au verre. Le CaHPO4·xH2O non cristallin peut être un ACP, surtout au cours des phases précoces de formation. A des pH physiologiques, l'ACP se transforme en petits cristaux applatis contenant de fortes quantités de phosphate acide facilement remplaçable. Le fait de laver la couche de surface produit un changement chimique dans les nouveaux cristaux: des cristaux non lavés donnent des diagrammes de diffraction d'apatite peu cristallins, ainsi que des spectres infra-rouges peu nets, intermédiaires entre des apatites et du phosphate octocalcique. Des explications structurales sont proposées et les compositions minérales amorphe/cristalline de l'os et du cartilage sont recalculées.
    Abstract: Zusammenfassung Ungewaschene Proben von amorphem Calciumphosphat (ACP) enthalten eine unersetzliche labile Fraktion, welche reich an saurem Phosphat ist und ein niederes Ca/P-Verhältnis hat und welche während des Waschprozesses unwiderruflich verloren geht. Natives ACP, welches im pH-Bereich 6,6–10,6 ausgefällt wurde, variierte im molaren Ca/P-Verhältnis zwischen 1,18 und 1,50 und in HPO 4 2− /totales P zwischen 33,0 und 10,1%. Bei pH 7,40 hatte natives ACP ein molares Ca/P-Verhältnis von 1,36±0,02 und enthielt 22,8 (±2,2)% HPO 4 2− . Die Werte beim ungewaschenen Niederschlag rühren weder von aus dem Überstand aufgenommenem Ca2+ und HPO2−, noch von außen kommendem Na+, Cl− und CO 3 2− her. Die amorphen Calciumphosphate werden als eine Klasse von Salzen erkannt, welche veränderliche chemische, aber identische glasartige physicochemische Eigenschaften haben. Nicht kristallines CaHPO4·xH2O kann auch ein ACP sein, besonders in den frühen Bildungsstadien. Bei physiologischem pH verwandelt sich ACP in kleine plattenförmige Kristalle, welche große Mengen von leicht ersetzbarem saurem Phosphat enthalten. Das Waschen dieser Oberflächenschicht erzeugte chemische Veränderungen in den resultierenden Kristallen; ungewaschene Kristalle zeigten ein Diffraktionsmuster, das nur schwach demjenigen des kristallinen Aspatites glich, aber ein schlecht aufgelöstes Infrarotspektrum, welches zwischen Apatit und Octocalciumphosphat war. Es werden strukturelle Erklärungen für alle diese Phenomena diskutiert, und revidierte amorph/kristalline Mineralzusammensetzungen von Knochen und Knorpel wurden neu berechnet.
    Notes: Abstract Unwashed samples of amorphous calcium phosphate (ACP) contain an irreplaceable labile fraction, rich in acid phosphate and low in Ca/P ratio, which is irreversibly lost during the washing process. Native ACP precipitated in the pH range 6.6–10.6 varied in Ca/P molar ratio from 1.18 to 1.50 and in HPO 4 2− /total P from 33.0% to 10.1%. At pH 7.40, native ACP had a Ca/P molar ratio of 1.36±0.02 and contained 22.8 (±2.2)% HPO 4 2− . Unwashed precipitate data could not be attributed to either trapped supernatant Ca2+ and HPO 4 2− or extraneous Na+, Cl−, and CO 3 2− . The amorphous calcium phosphates are recognized as a class of salts having variable chemical but identical glass-like, physicochemical properties. Non-crystalline CaHPO4·xH2O may also be an ACP, especially during early formative stages. At physiological pH, ACP transforms to small platy crystals containing large amounts of readily-replaceable acid phosphate. Washing this surface layer produced chemical alterations in the resultant crystals; unwashed crystals had poorly-crystalline apatitic diffraction patterns but exhibited poorly-resolved infrared spectra intermediate between apatite and octacalcium phosphate. Structural explanations for all these phenomena are discussed, and revised bone and cartilage amorphous/crystalline mineral compositions have been re-calculated.

    Notes: A simplified scheme for treating the spatial configurations of polynucleotide chains is developed using the rotational isomeric state approximation and statistical methods applicable to linear systems of interacting subunits. As a consequence of geometric constraints imposed by the skeletal structure and of the severity of certain steric interactions, it is possible to represent the repeat unit comprising six skeletal bonds by two virtual bonds of fixed length. The configuration of the polynucleotide chain as a whole may be conveniently described by an alternating succession of these two virtual bonds. Moreover, analysis of steric interactions suggests that bond rotations governing the mutual orientation of a given pair of successive virtual bonds should be sensibly independent of the rotations affecting the mutual orientation of other pairs. The statistical mechanical treatment of configuration-dependent properties is much simplified in consequence of this mutual independence. Mean-square dimensions calculated by giving equal weights to all sterically allowed conformations are much smaller than values determined by Felsenfeld and co-workers. The calculated dimensions are markedly increased, however, by placing certain arbitrary restrictions on the rotations about selected pairs of skeletal bonds. It is thus demonstrated that steric interactions alone are insufficient to account for the spatial characteristics of polynucleotide chains. The dimensions are also found to be sensitive to the conformation of the ribose ring of each nucleotide unit, but, insofar as the influences of steric interactions are concerned, the dimensions do not depend on the heterocyclic base attached to the ribose ring.

    Notes: A theory is presented concerning the possible arrangements of protomers in tetrameric molecules. Isoenzymes may exist even in the case of homotetramers if the asymmetry of the identical protomers is detectable. The number of tetrahedral isoenzymes that can be isolated depends on the nature of the intersubunit bonds and on the level of the asymmetry of the protomers. Five isoenzymes can be distinguished only if two different types of protomers form tetrahedral tetramers and the asymmetry of protomers is not detectable with the method used. If the two types of protomers can bind each other by any pairs of binding sets and the asymmetry of both protomer types reaches the level of detection with the method used, we obtain 117 isoenzymes: 15 individual ones, and 51 stereoisomeric pairs.

    Notes: Our previous paper described graphical procedures for evaluating the mode of association in ideal discrete and indefinite cases. This paper concerns the application of such procedures in cases where the non-ideality term BM1 must be considered. Bovine liver L-glutamate dehydrogenase and lysozyme are used as model systems. Several graphical procedures for dealing with cases of 1 - m, 1 - m - n, or indefinite association are developed. The procedure is based on the evaluation of the weight-fraction monomer with-out prior calculation of BM1, using graphical analysis to evaluate the non-ideality term.

Fractionation by ion-exchange column chromatography of poly-L-lysine hydrolysates on a preparative scale resulted in 0.2-1.0 g quantities of individual members of the poly-L-lysine series. The peptides isolated proved to be analytically pure and the optical configuration was fully retained, as demonstrated by complete enzymic digestion. Peptides higher than n = 14 were also prepared. They consisted of oligolysine groups of narrow and accurately determined size distribution. Potentiometric titrations were used both to characterize the products and to demonstrate the characteristic dependence of the dissociation constants on size of the peptide.

    Notes: The rate of double helix formation by single stranded Poly A plus Poly U, Poly I plus Poly C, Poly G plus Poly C, and T2 DNA has been investigated as a function of both the length of the reacting strands and temperature. The length dependence of the rate is found to be independent of temperature. All of the reactions studied show a rate approximately proportional to the square root of the length of the shorter of the complementary strands. At or about 30°C below the melting temperature the ribopolymers react with about the same rate. This rate is four to five times slower than DNA renaturation rates. The effect of temperature on ribopolymer reaction rates is interpreted in terms of a steady-state model for helix propagation.

    Notes: NMR spectra of cyclo(tri-L-prolyl), c-(P)3, show large shifts of the Hα resonance on adding C6D6 to a solution of c-(P)3 in CD2Cl2. CPK models and observed coupling constants indicate a rigid c-(P)3 conformation, independent of solvent composition, suggesting that these shifts result from formation of stereospecific C6D6-c-(P)3 collision complexes in which the c-(P)3 Hα lie near the face of the aromatic ring. The temperature dependence of the Hα shifts and the solvent dependent shifts observed on adding toluene-d8 or nitrobenzene-d5 to the c-(P)3 solution suggest that preferred C6D6-c-(P)3 orientations result from attractive interactions between the electron-rich aromatic ring and the electropositive Hα's and/or δ+ nitrogen atoms in the peptide backbone. Reports of such interactions in increasingly diverse peptide model systems suggest that they may play a role in stabilizing protein structures.

    Notes: Thermal denaturation of native or partially dehistonized nucleohistones shows two melting bands at 66 and 81° in 2.5 × 10-4 M EDTA, pH 8.0. These correspond to the melting of DNA segments bound by the less basic and the more basic half-molecules of histones, respectively. These two melting bands combine into a broad melting band from around 70 to 85° when these nucleohistones are pre-treated with formaldehyde. A formaldehyde reaction which fixes histones on DNA by covalent bonds account for the effect. Formaldehyde fixation also increases the melting temperature of some free DNA segments from around 42 to around 55°. This is interpreted as a result of closed or rigid boundaries between free DNA and formaldehyde-reacted histone-bound DNA segments. MgCl2 dissociates histones from DNA more effectively and leaves longer free DNA segments than does NaCl. Thermal denaturation of a formaldehyde-reacted nucleoprotein thus provides an effective tool for comparing the relative size of free DNA regions on nucleoproteins. The effect of reversible binding of ligands on helix-coil transition of DNA is descussed and found not adequate for thermal denaturation of nucleohistones.

    Notes: The isometric tensile stress generation observed when collagen fibers are immersed in aqueous solutions of lithium bromide ranging in molar concentration up to 7 was studied at 23°C. The reverse process, namely, isometric stress relaxation of the fiber occurring by subsequent immersion in distilled water, was also studied. We find that the data in the region of LiBr concentration up to about 2.5 moles/liter are adequately represented by a superposition integral \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$$ \sigma (t) = \int_{ - \infty }^\infty {K(t - \tau )} \frac{{dc(\tau )}}{{d\tau }}\,d\tau $$\end{document} where σ(t) is the time-dependent stress generated by the collagen fiber held at fixed length, c(t) is the history of LiBr molar concentration, and K(t) is the isometric contractility function, expressed as stress per unit salt concentration. We conclude that, within a limited range of salt concentration, a collagen fiber in a LiBr bath behaves as if it were a linear, time-invariant system defined mechanochemically by a single function K(t) which depends on the structural characteristics of the fiber while being independent of salt concentration. An analysis is presented of isometric mechanochemical data obtained under conditions of equilibrium by other workers who studied the behavior of collagen fibers in aqueous solutions either of urea, LiBr, or KCNS. The analysis shows that these independent (equilibrium) data confirm the linarity of the relation between isometric contractile stress and salt concentration on which our superposition integral representation is based. We also find that the asymptotic (infinite-time) value of the isometric stress is linearly related to the chemical potential of the salt as well, in agreement with the equilibrium thermodynamic treatment of mechanochemical processes by Katchalsky and Oplatka.

    Notes: A general theory of polyelectrolyte solutions is here used to calculate the differences in Gibbs free energy, enthalpy, and entropy between the coil and helix forms of DNA at any temperature and salt concentration. The salt has univalent cations and is assumed present in excess over the base concentration. The results are restricted to sufficiently dilute solutions. It is shown that the salt concentrations effect is entirely entropic in origin. When applied to the melting temperature, the calculations yield a relation between the enthalpy difference at the melting temperature and the slope of the plot of melting temperature vs. the logarithm of the salt concentration. In accord with observation, both the Gibbs free energy difference at any fixed temperature and the melting temperature are predicted to be linear functions of the log of the salt concentration.However, the theory is not in quantitative agreement with enthalpy data. Data on various colligative and transport properties of both helix and coil forms are reviewed in the text and in Appendix B, and good agreement is found with theory for both forms. No attempt is made to explain why the theory is quantitative for these properties but not for heat measurements.Finally, in Appendix A, an approximate calculation is made of the free energy contributions due to ionic effects not associated with the salt concentration.

    Notes: High-molecular-weight poly-L-alanine dissolved in hexafluoroisopropanol exhibits infrared, ultraviolet, circular dichroism, and optical rotatory dispersion spectra which are unique and unlike any other previously reported polypeptide spectra. Strong evidence that a helical conformation is present is shown by the high degree of hypochromism in the 187mμ absorption peak and by the positions of the amide infrared bands. The CD and ORD spectra are also similar to those of α-helical polypeptides, though important qualitative and qualitative differences are observed. To explain the novel spectra, which are not mixtures of the spectra of previously reported polypeptide conformations, a new α-helix-like conformation is proposed. The postulated conformation (a doubly hydrogen-bonded helix) is a distorted α-helix in which the peptide carbonyl groups point slightly out from the helix axis and are hydrogen bonded simul taneously both to the NH of the fourth peptide residue to the carboxyl terminal side (as in the classical α-helix), as well as to a solvent molecule's hydroxyl hydrogen.

    Notes: Circular dichriosm (CD) spectra have been calculated for serveral dinucleoside phosphates using a variant of the Pariser-Parr-Pople π-electron molecular orbital method. This method does not require the prior knowledge of the experimental absorption spectra of transition moments of the bases forming the dinucleoside phosphates. Calculated spectra were obtained in good agreement with experimental spectra for four dinucleoside phosphates, ApA, UpU, GpA, and UpA, and reasonable agreement was obtained for ApG and ApU. The effect of changing conformation on the CD spectrum was studied for ApA, UpU, UpA, and ApU; the spectra of UpU, UpA, and ApU were sensitive to small change in conformation, whereas ApA was insensitive over the range of conformation studied. Further studies await detailed knowledge of the structure of dinucleoside phosphates in solution.

    Notes: The solvent-and pH-induced conformational changes are examined in order to investigate the influence of benzyl group. Polymer was prepared via N∊-benzyloxycarbonyl, N∊-benzyl-Nα-carboxy-L-lysine anhydride. The resulting poly (N∊-benzyloxycarbonyl, N∊-benzyl-L-lysine) was obtained in high yield and had a high molecular weight. The protected polymer was removed into poly (N∊-benzyl-L-lysine) by treating it with hydrogen bromide. From the results of the ORD and CD, the protected polymer has a righthanded α-helix, showing [m′]233 = -10,300, [θ]220 = -27,600 and [θ]207 = -25,100 in dioxane. The breakdown of the helical conformation is found to occur at 8% dichloroacetic acid in chloroform-dichloroacetic acid mixture. In the pH range 3.35-6.90, poly (N∊-benzyl-L-lysine) is in a random coil structure. In the pH range 7.50-13.0, the polypeptide has a right-handed α-helix structure; [m′]233 = -12,000, [0]220 = -27,200, and [0]207 = -27,000. In comparison with poly-L-lysine, the coil-to-helix transition is observed at lower pH range in 50% n-propanol. Above pH 8 by heating, the α ⇀ β transition of poly (N∊-benzyl-L-lysine) is not observed in an aqueous media.

    Notes: A simple sequential model is developed which is applicable to the kinetics of melting of some types of oligomeric helices and as an idealization to the kinetics of unfolding of some protein molecules. A procedure is presented for calculating the concentrations of all conformational species as functions of time. The time course of experimentally observable quantities which depend on these concentrations may then be computed.One of the most characteristic features of the model is the distinction between a transient and a steady-state phase. During the latter all molecular parameters change at the same rate, which depends strongly on the difficulty of nucleation and the length of the sequence. Simple approximations to the steady-state rate are discussed in terms of the exact solution. Rates of transient processes dependless strongly on the rate of nucleation and the number of steps and are a more direct reflection of the rates of the rates of the elementary process of propagation. The value of experimental observation of transient process is emphasized.

    Notes: Far-infrared spectra were measured for the sequential copolymers of amino acids with alkyl group side chains. The analysis of the spectra showed that (L-Ala-L-Ala-Gly)n, (L-Ala-Gly)n, (L-Ala-Gly-Gly)n, (L-Val-L-Ala-L-Ala)n, and (L-Val-L-Ala)n, have the antiparallel pleated sheet structures and that the backbone conformations of (L-Val-L-Val-L-Ala)n and (L-Val-L-Val-Gly)n are the same as that of poly-L-valine. The far-infrared bands characteristic of the antiparallel pleated sheet structure were assigned on the basis of the result of the normal coordinate analysis of poly-L-alanine with this structure. The intersheet and interchain spacings of the sequential copolymers with the antiparallel pleated sheet structure were determined from the x-ray powder-diffraction patterns of these samples.

    Notes: Circular dichroism spectra of acridine orange bound to E. coli tRNA were studied at varying tRNA phosphate-to-dye (P/D) ratios for both unfractionated and purified materials in the absence of Mg++. From the rather discrete features exhibited in the circular dichroism spectra three types of interactions were observed: (1) A high P/D ratio such as 75.2 or 49.8 indicates the interaction between the nucleotide base and dye molecule. The spectra with a large positive peak at 515 mμ are, however, quite different from that of DNA-AO complex under similar conditions. (2) With an intermediate P/D ratio (26.5 to 9.6) dye molecules bound strongly to the polynucleotide chain. (3) With low P/D ratios (≤7.5) the interaction appears to be due to the stacked dye molecules in the single-stranded part of tRNA. The spectra of the third group have an isobestic point at 477 mμ. Below a P/D ratio of 4 the spectrum shows one positive and two negative bands which may be the characteristics of circular dichroism of stacked dyes in polynucleotide chain.Although no drastic change in the conformation of tRNA itself was detectable in the presence of Mg++ in the ultraviolet region, a dramatic change was observed in the circular dichroism of tRNA-acridine orange complex when Mg++ concentration was increased to 10-3M. It was inferred that certain conformational changes other than simple hydrogen bond formation occured in tRNA molecules at this high Mg++ concentration, so that the amount of bound dye in the stacking condition was increased through the transition.

    Notes: Apparent second-order rate constants for complex formation between poly (I) and poly (C) and copolymers of C containing non-complementary I or U residues have been determined spectrophotometrically. The rate constants decrease as the concentration of either I or U in the C strands increases-the effect seems insensitive to the species of residue involved, when differences in the thermal stabilities of the poly (I) poly (C,I) and poly (I). poly (C,U) complexes are taken into account. These results suggest that low concentrations of relatively stable defects can alter the apparent kinetic “complexity” of polynucleotides as determined by hybridization methods (C0t analysis).

    Notes: DNA which has been heat denatured in the presence of Cu++ ions can be completely and rapidly renatured by increasing the ionic strength of the solution above a critical value. A kinetic study of this renaturation recation was carried out by following the associated UV absorbance change and also by following the change in free Cu++ ion concentration by means of a specific Cu++ ion activity electrode. The data obtained could be fitted to first-order kinetics for a considerable extent of the reaction and the rate constant was found to increase with temperature and ionic strength, but to decrease markedly as the bulk viscosity of the solution was increased. At temperatures greater than 5°C the reaction rate depended on the time elapsing between denaturation and the commencement of the renaturation reaction. As there was good agreement between the rate constants obtained by following the decrease in hyperchromism and by following the increase in free Cu++ ion concentration, it is concluded that under the conditions employed, the rate of renaturation is determined by the rate of release of Cu++ ions from the denatured DNA-Cu++ complex.

    Notes: Conformational aspects of a series of copolymers of L-Leucine and L-leucine [poly-(LysxLeuy)] containing 0 to 0.41 mole fraction L-leucine have been studied by circular dichroism (CD) and potentiometric titration in 0.05M KF solution. CD studies on the α-helical conformation showed a dependence of the magnitude of the CD ellipticity band at 222 nm on copolymer composition; the [θ]222 decreasing with higher leucine contents. This was interpreted as the result of an increase of the hydrophobicity of the environment of the amide group due to the presence of the leucyl residues. Values of the Zimm-Rice parameter, σ, for the copolymers were obtained from the potentiometric titrations and used to fit theoretical curves to the experimental data. Using the variation of σ with polymer composition, a value of σ for the leucyl residue was estimated to be 6.3 × 10-2, assuming independence of σ on the amino acid sequence in the copolymer. The free energy change for the conversion of one mole residue from uncharged helix to uncharged coil, ΔGhc°, was also obtained from the titration data for each copolymer up to a leucine mole fraction of 0.16; a value of 385 cal mole-1 was estimated for ΔGhc° for a leucyl residue. These values for σ and ΔGhc° are compared with other values in the literature for various amino acid residues obtained from titration and melting curve data.

    Notes: Optical rotatory dispersion measurements were used to follow the transition from the helical to the random coil conformation of poly-β-benzyl-L-aspartate as induced by changes in temperature and solvent composition in mixtures of dioxane and dimethylsulfoxide. Within experimental error, there is no difference in the stability of the helical state as measured in this way for the protonated and deuterated forms of the polypeptide. This result is considered in terms of previous attempts to study the isotope effect on conformational transitions of helical biological macromolecules and polypeptides. The conclusion is drawn that the apparent changes in conformational stability observed in these previous systems arise from alteration of the properties of the solvent. Speculations are advanced regarding the contribution of the interpeptide bond to the stability of the helical state.

    Notes: The helical structures of poly[(S)-thiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid], in the cis and trans forms, were redetermined by using the new sets of bond angles and bond lengths established by X-ray diffraction analysis of L-thioproline. Calculations of the helical structures of poly-L-proline and poly[(S)-oxazolidine-4-carboxylic acid] were also repeated. As a result of these energy calculations, it is suggested that, in contrast to poly-L-proline and poly[(S)-oxazolidine-4-carboxylic acid], poly[(S)-thiazolidine-4-carboxylic acid] should not mutarotate from the trans to the cis form. This result is due to the fact that the energy barrier for the conversion is most likely too high. Previous experimental work is consistent with this finding.

    Notes: Measurements of optical rotatory dispersion (ORD) and circular dichroism (CD) were made in the range of 400-205 nm for polysaccharide tribenzoates such as 2,3,6-tri-O-benzoyl amylose (I), 2,3,4-tri-O-benzoyl dextran (II), tri-O-benzoyl pullulan (III), 2,3,6-tri-O-benzoyl cellulose (IV), 2,3,6-tri-O-benzoyl mannan (V), and polyglycan dibenzoates such as 2,3,-di-O-benzoyl amylose (VI), cellulose (VII), and mannan (VIII). All compounds exhibit Cotton effects in the region of their UV absorption bands (206-285 nm).Comparison of the corresponding di- and tribenzoyl polysaccharides shows a qualitative agreement in number, position and sign of the CD bands but differences in ellipticity magnitude. The disubstituted derivatives exhibit smaller amplitudes than the trisubstituted ones. The contribution of the C(6) chromophore (linked by a CH2-group to the asymmetric C(5) atom) was determined to be of the same sign as the combined contribution of the C(2) and C(3) substituents.The CD bonds of the individual polysaccharide derivatives, which differ in number, sign, and position, were discussed in terms of the steric position of the single chromophores and the steric arrangement and interaction caused by the configuration of the polysaccharides. The optical behavior of these polysaccharide derivatives was found to be not strongly influenced by a definite chain conformation in solution.

    Notes: The influence of the substituents upon the Amide I and νNH frequencies has been analyzed for ten amides substituted by aliphatic side chains. By considering the aliphatic chain field effect, some data are obtained as to the conformation of the N—Cα bond. In two amides, the presence of an equilibrium between two conformers is shown and a semiquantitative estimation of the energies involved is obtained. The consequences for polypeptides conformation, especially for poly-L-valine, are discussed.

    Notes: The effect of dielectric constant (D) of the solvent on the viscosity of heparin was examined using the relation \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ \eta _{{\rm sp}} /c = [\eta ]_\infty (1 + k/\sqrt c) $\end{document}, where [η]∞ is the shielded intrinsic viscosity obtained by extrapolating \documentclass{article}\pagestyle{empty}\begin{document}$ \eta _{{\rm sp}} /c\,{\rm vs}{\rm . }\,1/\sqrt c ) $\end{document} to infinite concentration, and k is an interaction parameter independent of the dielectric constant of the solvent. This equation was previously reported by the authors9 for describing the reduced viscosities of strong polyelectrolytes in salt-free polar solvents. It was found that the [η]∞ of heparin increases linearly with increasing dielectric constant of the solvent whereas the k values were, within experimental error, independent of D in the range 54.7 〈 D 〈 93.2 examined. Graded hydrolysis of heparin from its acid form (heparinic acid) at 57°C resulted in samples of varying degree of desulfation with corresponding decrease in biological activity. It was found that both [η]∞ and k decrease with increasing desulfation.

    Notes: The high-humidity X-ray pattern of oriented fibers prepared from salmon spermheads strongly resembles that of DNA in the B form. However, the nucleoprotamine pattern has a more intense first layer line and increased lateral unit-cell dimensions.Complexes of DNA with poly-L-lysine and poly-L-arginine were prepared and photographed at various relative humidities. The most crystalline patterns were obtained at 92% and also indicate DNA in the B form. However, whereas polylysine-DNA, like the spermheads, has a primitive hexagonal cell, polyarginine-DNA, like NaDNA, has three molecules in the unit cell. Polylysine-DNA, but not polyarginine-DNA, also resembles spermheads in having a strong first layer line.All three complexes show increasing intermolecular distance with increasing humidity, but with sharp maxima when photographed in water, which indicates cross-linking between the molecules. Lowering the humidity causes the polylysine-DNA, but not polyarginine-DNA, to change conformation from the B to the C form.The structural implications of these results are discussed in the light of model-building studies and a comparison of calculated and observed X-ray intensities.

    Notes: The pH, temperature, and reagent concentration dependences of the cyanuration of tyrosines within proteins are compared with those of the free amino acid. The results indicate that the mechanism of the cyanuration reaction is a nucleophilic aromatic substitution of the SN2 type, where the tyrosine oxygen acts as a nucleophile and the displacement takes places at a carbon atom which is part of the six-membered ring of the s-triazene. This reaction must compete with the hydrolysis of cyanuric fluoride in aqueous media. These competing reactions generate curves for the pH dependence of the reactivity of tyrosine with cyanuric fluoride whihc vary in a predictable manner with the extent of ionization of tyrosine and the concentration of cyanuric fluoride. In the case of proteins, the dependence of the degree of tyrosine reactivity on pH and temperature within the pH range of full reactivity of the free amino acid reflects constraints imposed by the microenvironment of these groups within the three-dimensional structure of the macromolecule.

    Notes: Serum albumin undergoes a conformational change at pH 4, known as the N-F transition. In the customary Linderstrøm-Lang treatment of hydrogen ion titration, the carboxyl groups in serum albumin either have an abnormally low pK, or are buried in charged form, and the Linderstrøm-Lang charging parameter ω decreases dramatically at the N-F isomerization. In the present paper partition functions are derived and distribution functions are calculated for a model permitting salt bonding between the positively and negatively charged sites on a macromolecule. The N-form has an abnormally high salt bonding constant whereas that of the F-form corresponds to that of small ions. The result obtained is consistent with a “normal” intrinsic pK of the carboxyl groups of serum albumin without burying of any charges and with an unchanged ω. The nature of the postulated salt bonding is discussed.Further, it is shown that the “abnormal salt bonding” of serum albumin can explain its unusual ability to bind anions. Theoretical binding curves are calculated and compared with literature data of the Cl- binding of serum albumin. The relation of the present model to other models of hydrogen ion and anion binding to proteins is discussed. Some additional consequences of the present model are pointed out; a transition in the alkaline range, analogous to the acid transition, seems probable. Literature data support the existence of such a transition but do not allow detailed calculations at present.A general, thermodynamic treatment of the interactions between small ligands and macromolecules is outlined. Important points are the choice of the statistical-me- chanical ensemble and considerations of the fluctuations about the mean bonding, if (i) there are not only a ligand-locus interaction but also interligand interactions (in par- ticular intdigand attraction), or (ii) there is a conformational change in themacromole- cule depending on the ligand binding. In these cases, the binding isotherms obtained from thermodynamically closed systems (canonical ensemble) may erroneously indicate a distribution about a single probability maximum, i.e., the statistical mean binding N̄, and fluctuations about this value. The description of a phase change in a bound phase or a change in the “internal” self-interactions of a macromolecule requires a bind- ing equation permitting distributions about two maxima, i.e., (i) N1* 〈 N̄ (“thin” phase) and N2* 〉 N̄ (“condensed” phase) or (ii) two macromolecular conformations P′, and P″, having occupancy numbers N̄, and N̄2, respectively. The N-F transition is an example illustrating the relation between the complete distribution functions and the two-state approximation.

    Notes: Three samples of poly-γ-benzyl-L-glutamate have been prepared from γ-benzyl-N-carboxy-L-glutamate anhydride with n-hexylamine initiation at anhydride-to-initiator molar ratios, [A]/[I], of 3, 4, and 8, and their conformation and association in ethylene dichloride and dioxane have been investigated by means of infrared spectra and vapor-pressure osmometry. Two conformations, σ-and β-forms, are present in those solvents, and the content of β-form increases with increasing A/I value and concentration. At infinite dilution molecular association is absent, but the number-average molecular weight increases with cocentration, markedly in ethylene dichloride and, to a lesser extent, in dioxane. The fraction of residues involved in associated molecules have been estimated as a function of concentration. Combination of the content of β-structure with the fraction of association leads to the following results. The A/I 3 and 4 polymers form intermolecularly hydrogen-bonded aggregates, in which hydrogen-bonded residues are in the β-structure. The A/I 8 polymer has the intramolecularly hydrogen-bonded β-structure at very low concentrations, but it also forms intermolecularly hydrogen-bonded aggregates at high concentrations.

    Notes: Dielectric studies have been carried out for the helix-coil transition of poly-β-benzyl-L-aspartate with m-cresol as a solvent. The transition of the solute molecules has been sharply reflected as a characteristic change in the dielectric dispersion curves in changing temperature. Two polarizations, one having a low and the other a high critical frequency, have appeared. According to theoretical considerations of a model of a broken helix, the former is found to come from the orientation. of helical sequences and the latter from the chemical relaxation due to the helix-coil transition. It also seems likely that the unfolded chain may have a polarizability which could not be neglected at the high-temperature side of the transition.

    Notes: Circular Dichroism measurements have been carried out on poly-L-lysine (PLL) and on random copolymers of lysine and phenylalanine at various pH values and in the presence of different amounts of NaClO4. The results indicate that either the homopolymer or the copolymers at pH conditions at which the side-chain amino groups are fully protonated, assume the right-handed α-helical conformation in the presence of NaClO4. The results are interpreted in terms of specific binding of ClO4- ions on charged side-chain amino groups.

    Notes: Thermal denaturation of DNA's and the corresponding helix-coil transformation of artificial polyribonucleic and polydeoxyribonucleic acids have been studied extensively both theoretically1-13 and experimentally. 14-30 Much less work has been carried out on the properties of these polynucleic acids at high pressure, and in particular, on the presure dependence of the helix-coil transition temperature.31-33 Light-scattering techniques have been used in this study to measure the pressure dependence of the helix-coil transition temperature of the two- and three-stranded helices of polyriboadenylic and polyribouridilic acids and of calf thymus DNA. From the slopes of the transition temperature vs. pressure curves and heats of transition obtained from the literature,20,34 the following volume changes from these helix-coil transitions have been obtained: (a) -0.96 cc/mole of nucleotide base pairs for the poly (A + U) transition, (b) +0.35 cc/mole of nucleotide base trios for the poly (A + 2U) transition, and (c) +2.7 cc/mole of nucleotide base pairs for the DNA transition. The relative magnitudes and signs of these volume changes which show that poly (A + U) is destabilized by increased pressure, whereas poly (A + 2U) and calf thymus DNA are stabilized by increased pressure, indicates that further development of the helix-coil transition theory for polynucleotides is needed.

    Notes: Helix-coil transition curves are calculated for poly (dA) poly(dT) and poly (dA-dT) poly (dA-dT) using the integral equation approach of Goel and Montroll.5 The transitions are described by the loop entropy model with the exponent of the loop entropy factor, k, remaining an arbitrary constant. The theoretical calculations are compared with experimental transition curves of the two polymers. Results indicate that the stacking energies for these two polymers differ by about 1 kcal/mole of base pairs. Also, a fit between theory and experiment was not possible for k 〉 1.70.

    Notes: The circular dichroism spectra of many natural DNAs and double-stranded synthetic polynucleotides were obtained. The eight first-neighbor contributions to the CD spectra of a DNA have been extracted from these data. Therefore, the CD spectrum for any DNA with known first-neighbor frequencies may be easily calculated. For a natural DNA the CD spectrum may be approximated by assuming the first-neighbor frequencies have the most probable values consistent with the base composition. Under favorable conditions, the measured CD spectrum can be used to determine thirteen of the sixteen first-neighbor frequencies of a DNA to ± 0.02 mole percent. The TG, CA, and TA first-neighbor cannot be unambiguously resolved by our method. The accuracy of the first-neighbor frequency analysis depends on the number of different first-neighbors present in the DNA and the extent to which they differ from the most probable value.The extinction coefficient at 260 nm and the base composition can also be calculated from the CD spectrum.

    Notes: A molecular theory of protein secondary structure is presented that takes account of both local interactions inside each chain region and long-range interactions between different regions, incorporating all these interactions in a single Ising-like model. Local interactions are evaluated from the stereochemical theory describing the relative stabilities of α- and β-structures for different residues in synthetic polypeptides, while long-range effects are approximated by the interaction of each chain region with the averaged hydrophobic template. Based on this theory, an algorithm of protein secondary structure prediction is proposed and examples are given of “blind” predictions made before the x-ray structural data became available.

    Notes: Experimental measurements of disulfide bond stability at various stages of protein folding are considered in terms of the effective concentrations of the thiol groups relative to each other; values of up to 107M are observed, so that intramolecular interactions within the interior of a protein are much more stable, and provide greater stability to the folded conformation, than those on the surface or in a flexible segment. Intramolecular interactions can have substantially lower free energies than intermolecular, for solely entropic reasons; this implies that polar interactions, such as hydrogen bonds and salt bridges, can provide net stabilization to a folded conformation, in spite of the unfolded protein having intermolecular interactions with the solvent. These considerations can account for the lower free energy and enthalpy of the folded state and are useful for considering protein flexibility.

    Notes: Near- and far-uv CD spectra of microtubule protein preparations have been examined to study the possible role of protein conformation in relation to the kinetics of the self-assembly of these proteins into microtubules in vitro. Although tubulin can form conformations with high helical content under apolar solution conditions, this transformation is apparently not involved in self-assembly. There is no major perturbation of tubulin near-uv CD by reagents and solution conditions favoring assembly. Thus, in these preparations, tubulin, as dimer and as oligomer with MAPs, is effectively in the conformation in which it undergoes self-assembly. This conclusion is consistent with a hybrid model of assembly of microtubule protein involving direct incorporation of oligomeric species as an alternative to the condensation polymerization of tubulin dimer as the exclusive assembly mechanism.

    Notes: The in vivo pathway of folding and subunit assembly of a trimeric bacteriophage protein has been studied by characterizing precursors to the native protein and by analyzing temperature-sensitive mutations that kinetically block the pathway. The native trimer is formed via an intermediate composed of three partially folded chains, the protrimer. At 39°C, temperature-sensitive mutations prevent the formation of both the native trimer and the protrimer, possibly by destabilizing earlier intermediates. However, the mutations do not affect the stability of the native protein, formed at 30°C. Thus, these mutations identify amino acid residues involved in interactions that determine the folding pathway.

    Notes: We studied the kinetics of O2 release by oxyhemoglobin caused by sodium dithionite, in the presence and in the absence of organic cosolvents (monohydric alcohols and formamide) at 10°C. This study was performed by using standard stopped-flow techniques coupled with microprocessor-based data acquisition. We have fitted the experimental data to a mathematical expression obtained on the basis of a two-state model that takes into account the kinetic heterogeneity between α- and β-chains and the presence of αβ-dimers in oxyhemoglobin solutions. Results indicate that the cosolvents mainly affect the allosteric parameter L, i.e., the T ⇄ R conformational equilibrium of hemoglobin, leaving the intrinsic deoxygenation rates of both R and T states almost unaltered. The L values obtained in the present work are in excellent agreement with analogous values previously estimated from oxygen equilibrium measurements.

    Notes: Porcine submaxillary mucin (PSM) is a glycoprotein composed of a protein core and frequent, short oligosaccharide side chains. We report static and dynamic light scattering experiments and intrinsic viscosities for PSM in aqueous solvent systems. In 0.1M NaCl solution, the data suggest PSM exists as large, internally branched, highly hydrated, polydisperse aggregates that slowly dissociate to give a stable species of weight-average molecular weight (Mw) 7.4 × 106. In 6M GdnHCl solution, the noncovalent bonds between PSM molecules are broken, giving a highly elongated molecule of Mw = 2.0 × 106. The irreversible nature of this dissociation suggests that the forces that stabilize the native aggregates of PSM in 0.1M NaCl are specific in nature. On reduction of PSM with mercaptoethanol, the polydispersity decreases and Mw also decreases to 9 × 105. A discrete change is observed in the solution properties of PSM in 0.1M NaCl at a concentration of 2mg/mL, manifested by a sudden decrease in the translational diffusion coefficient, an increase in viscosity number, and a decrease in slope of the osmotic compressibility. We tentatively propose that a weak and reversible secondary association process occurs at this concentration, although a purely hydrodynamic interaction cannot be ruled out.

    Notes: The uv linear dichroism of calf thylus DNA has been studied at different degrees of orientation both in flow-oriented ethanol-water solutions and in a stretched aqueous host of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA). The reduced dichroism (LDR) curves in the region 250-290 nm for DNA in PVA films at 75 and 100% relative humidity (r.h.) are in fair agreement with the curves calculated for the A- and B-forms of DNA, based on the fiber structures and the π-π* transitions of the free bases. This suggests that DNA adopts its A and B conformations in PVA at 75 and 100% r.h. In ethanol, on the other hand, a deviation from the A-form spectrum shows that the conformation of DNA in the solution can differ from the fiber structure. At shorter wavelenghts, a positive contribution to LDR is explained in terms of an out-of-plane polarized n-π* transition.

    Notes: A vibrational analysis has been performed for a double-helix-single-strand junction. A Green's function technique has been used in treating the junction as a defect on an otherwise perfect system of infinite chain homopolymers. We calculate that the hydrogen-bond stretching at the junction is amplified by a factor of two relative to the interior of the double helix, B poly(dG)-poly(dC). Breathing modes localized near the junction have also been predicted at 77 and 94 wave numbers. The calculated results are shown to be consistent with predictions from recent nmr studies.

    Notes: Nmr studies of the protected and free tetrapeptide Gly-Pro-Gly-Gly were carried out in β-turn-supporting solvents, that is, in CDCl3 for Z-Gly-Pro-Gly-Gly-OMe and in Me2SO-d6 for H-Gly-Pro-Gly-Gly-OH. Comparisons with specifically α-deuterated analogs gave complete assignments of the NH and methylene regions. Analysis of chemical shifts, coupling constants, and the temperature dependence of chemical shifts show that the peptide adopts a type II β-turn conformation. This turn is stabilized for the protected tetrapeptide by two hydrogen bonds between (i) C=O (Gly1) and NH(Gly4), and (ii) urethane function NH and methyl ester C=O.

    Notes: Ab initio minimal and split-valence basis set calculations have been performed on compounds that are involved in retro-inverso modifications, i.e., gem-diaminoalkyl and malonyl structures. These calculations are compared with empirical force field calculations and the minor differences discussed. All calculations agree that the preferred helical conformation of the isolated gem-diaminoalkyl and malonyl derivatives of residues found in the retro-inverso modified peptides is 5-8 kcal/mol lower than the Ceq7 conformation preferred by the isolated peptide residues. Population analysis and contour plots of the charge distribution are used to help explain the differences between the model compounds.

    Notes: SCF-LCAO-MO ab initio calculations were carried out for the interaction between a charged amino acid and a water molecule. The results obtained were fitted by an analytical potential function of the atom-atom type, and the corresponding potential surfaces were examined by means of orientationally optimized isoenergy contour maps. Monte Carlo simulations were also carried out on a few selected solute-water clusters at T = 300 K, in order to obtain insight into the solvation structure.

    Notes: An improved cube method has been developed for calculating the intensity of diffuse x-ray scattering of macromolecules in solution using a certain set of their atomic coordinates. The technique is based on the ideas of B. Lee and F. M. Richards [(1971) J. Mol. Biol. 55, 374-400] and Richards [(1977) Annu. Rev. Biophys. Bioeng. 6, 151-176] on the possibility of estimating the molecular and accessible surface of a particle by “rolling” a sphere, simulating a water molecule, on its molecular surface. It is shown that this technique is more advantageous than earlier versions of the cube methods. The improved technique for calculating scattering curves was utilized for several globular proteins, and for the first time, reliable scattering curves were obtained for protein-“bound” water complexes. In the case of globular proteins and tRNA, this technique has permitted a strict evaluation of their accessible surfaces, their volumes, and, apparently for the first time, their complete molecular surfaces.

    Notes: An extended retro-inverso modification was introduced at the central six residues of the somatostatin molecule, the region of internal enzymatic degradations. The synthesis of the analog [Ala4,g-Phe6-r-D-Phe7-r-D-Trp8-r-D-Lys9-r-D-Thr10-m-R,S-Phe11]-somatostatin required a unique strategy accommodating the unusual structure. Side-chain protection based on the t-butyl group in combination with Fmoc and Nps α-amino protection was employed. The key component containing the gem-diaminoalkyl residue was generated by an iodobenzene bistrifluoroacetate-mediated reaction. The separation of diastereomers of the cyclic tetradecapeptide in highly pure form was accomplished by high-performance liguid chromatography on a semipreparative scale. The analogs exhibited very low potency in the growth hormone inhibition test in vitro. This is interpreted as the consequence of the complex structural changes created by the extended retro-inverso modification.

    Notes: The nature of internal and overall motions in native (double-stranded) and denatured (single-stranded) DNA fragments 120-160 base pairs (bp) long is examined by molecular-dynamics modeling using 13C-nmr spin-relaxation data obtained over the frequency range of 37-125 MHz. The broad range of 13C frequencies is required to differentiate among various models. Relatively narrow linewidths, large nuclear Overhauser enhancements (NOEs), and short T1 values all vary significantly with frequency and indicate the presence of rapid, restricted internal motions on the nanosecond time scale. For double-stranded DNA monomer fragments (147 bp, 24 Å diam at 32°C), the overall motion is that of an axially symmetric cylinder (τx = ∼10-6 s;τZ = ∼1.8 × 10-8s), which is in good agreement with values calculated from hydrodynamic theory (τx = ∼1.8 × 10-6 s; τZ = ∼2.7 × 10-8 s). The DNA internal motion can be modeled as restricted amplitude internal diffusion of individual C—H vectors of deoxyribose methine carbons C1′, C3′, and C4′, either with conic boundary conditions (τw = ∼4 × 10-9 s, θcone = ∼21°) or as a bistable jump (τA = τB = ∼2 × 10-9 s, θ = ∼15°). We discuss the critical role in molecular-dynamics modeling played by the angle (β) that individual C—H vectors make with the long axis of the DNA helix. Heat denaturation brings about increases in both the rate and amplitude of the internal motion (described by the wobble model with τW = ∼0.2 × 10-9 s, θcone = ∼50°), and overall motion is affected by becoming essentially isotropic (τx = τZ = ∼5 × 10-8 s) for the single-stranded molecules. Since 13C-nmr data obtained at various DNA concentrations for C2′ of the deoxyribose ring is not described well by the above models, a new model incorporating an additional internal motion is proposed to take into account the rapid, extensive, and weakly coupled motion of C2′.

    Notes: The interaction of methyl orange with poly(L-lysine) was studied kinetically by the stopped-flow technique with CD detection, as well as by static CD titration experiments. In the static experiments, the differences observed in the polymer-to-dye ratio dependences of the CD spectra and absorption spectra suggested at least two kinds of bound states of the methyl orange attached to the polymer. The kinetic experiments using the stopped-flow apparatus, however, revealed four distinct reaction processes. The reaction mechanism was elucidated from the concentration dependence of the time constant for each process as follows: the first process was attributed to the bimolecular binding step of methyl orange to the side chain of poly(L-lysine), the second and third process were ascribed to the intramolecular reaction of the polymer-dye complex, and the fourth process was found to be the intermolecular aggregation of the polymer-dye complex. The origin of the stacking of methyl orange on poly(L-lysine) is discussed on the basis of the characteristics of signal amplitudes obtained from the kinetic experiments for these processes.

    Notes: Novel devices for the spectroscopic and chromatographic analysis of the denaturation curves of the protein are described. A multidimensional spectroscopic measuring system makes it possible to carry out simultaneous and continuous acquisition of a set of data of different spectroscopic dimensions at several wavelengths in the course of increasing or decreasing denaturational perturbation. GuHCl-gradient chromatography can provide information about the progressive change of the protein volume in the course of increasing GuHCl concentration. Thus, denaturation curves with a high data-point density can be obtained. The data-storing function by a magnetic disk memory provides enough precision for a rigorous investigation of the correlation among the curves that probe different aspects of denaturation. The GuHCl denaturation of RNase A, cytochrome c, and pepsinogen are studied to demonstrate the high performance of these devices. Three types of transitions are found in these three proteins and the multiphasic nature of the transitions is clearly detected in the last two proteins.

    Notes: A sufficiently long semiflexible filamentous macromolecule is theroretically expected to exhibit three different domains of behavior of its apparent diffusion coefficient Dapp(K) as a function of scattering vector K: (1) the small wave vector limit, where Dapp(K) = D0 is the translational diffusion coefficient of the center-of-mass; (2) the universal K3 region, where Dapp(K) = (kBT/6πη)K is a universal function of K independent of any property of the molecule itself; (c) the plateau region at large K2, where Dapp(K) approaches either a plateau, or gradually sloping quasiplateau, characteristic of local (elastic) rigid-body motions of the filament. The existence of each of these different domains has now been established experimentally for at least some polymers. The boundaries of the universal K3 region and the plateau region are determined theoretically here using precise quantitative criteria for universal or plateau behavior of Dapp(K) for a Rouse-Zimm model containing N + 1 subchains with rms subchain extension b. Allowing a maximum of 13% nonuniversal behavior, the domain of the universal K3 region is given by K2R2G = K2Nb2/6 ≥ 7 and K2b2 ≤ 0.54. Allowing as much as 10% nonplateau behavior, the boundary for onset of plateau behavior is K2b2 = 18.3. Dapp(K) is at least 50% nonuniversal when K2b2/6 = 6 ln 3. Extension of these results to DNA is examined theoretically, and good agreement of the pertinent predictions with published experimental data is demonstrated.It is concluded that no truly universal K3 region exists for DNA with Mr ≤ 107 and persistence length a ≥ 450 Å, although marginally (≤17% nonuniversal) universal behavior, is exhibited in a very narrow domain 0.64 × 1010 ≤ K2 ≤ 0.84 × 1010 cm-2 for φ29 DNA (Mr = 11.5 × 106). More than 50% of Dapp(K) is governed by local (elastic) rigid-body motions when K2 = 5.23 × 1010 cm-2. The existence of a very wide region of nonuniversal apparent K3 behavior extending up to very large K2, far into the plateau region, is demonstrated in a plot of Dapp(K)/K vs K2 for the Rouse-Zimm model. This is shown to stem in part from visual artifacts of plotting Dapp(K)/K vs K2, even for rigid species.

    Notes: The rotational relaxation tiem τ3 of DNA molecules (Mw ≃ 5 × 106) in solution has been determined by the transient electric birefringence method. The analysis of the birefringence decay makes it possible to study only the higher-molecular-weight fraction, the molecules being considered as rigid elongated particles in a short time scale. A marked concentration dependence of the relaxation time has been observed for DNA in low ionic strengths. Above a critical concentration c*, τ3 increases with the DNA concentration, c. The value of c* increases with the ionic strength. For 10-3 ionic strength (with NaCl), c* is about 10 μg/mL; then we observe the same strong concentration dependence of rotational relaxation times as recently reported for rodlike M-13 viruses [Maguire, J. F., McTague, J. P. & Rondelez, F. (1980) Phys. Rev. Lett. 45, 1891-1894]. These results may be discussed in terms of the Doi-Edwards theory for rotational relaxation time of rigid macromolecules [Doi, M. (1975) J. Phys. 36, 607-611; Doi, M. & Edwards, S. F. (1978) J. Chem. Soc. Faraday Trans. 74, 918-932] and the critical concentration above which the interactions between the molecules begin to appear allows determining the corresponding molecular length. We observe a very good agreement between the DNA lengths obtained from the c* values and by using the infinite dilution value of τ3 and Broersma's equation. Therefore, only highly diluted solutions can be used if intrinsic molecular properties based on the rotational diffusion of high-molecular-weight elongated molecules are studied.

    Notes: A thermodynamic treatment of the helix-coil transition of synthetic polypeptides in binary organic solvent mixtures is extended to describe isobaric heat-capacity increments associated with the phenomenon. This development resolves such increments into three components: two associated respectively with intrinsic differences between the ordered and disordered states of the macromolecule and between the coil-solvent complex and its components, and a third term derived from the temperature dependence in the fraction of coil residues bound to active solvent. Insights derived from this analysis are also applied to the discussion of some heat capacity increments associated with the denaturation of globular proteins.

    Notes: The temperature dependence of the humidity-sensitive spacing, d, related to the lateral packing of collagen molecules was measured for fully hydrated collagen. In the vicinity of 0°C, a sudden change in d was observed, which was reversible with temperature. In the diffraction profile, below 0°C, a set of diffraction peaks identified with the hexagonal crystalline form of ice was observed. With the reduction in water content, the intensity of the set of diffraction peaks decreased and was found to be zero at a water content of 0.38 g/g collagen. These results were considered to be caused by the frozen water in collagen fibril below 0°C. According to the water content dependence of d, it was considered that up to a certain water content water absorbed would be stowed in the intermolecular space of collagen and above that water content water molecules would aggregate to make pools, i. e., extrafibrillar spaces. The unfreezable bound water was considered to be located in the intermolecular space of collagen. Size of the extrafibrillar space, determined from the intensity analysis of a smallangle x-ray scattering pattern, corroborates the speculation that the water showed in the extrafibrillar space is freezable and free. The formation of the hexagonal crystalline form of ice in the extrafibrillar space was considered to cause the sudden change in d at 0°C.

    Notes: Folding type-specific secondary structure propensities of 20 naturally occurring amino acids have been derived from α-helical, β-sheet, α/β, and α+β proteins of known structures. These data show that each residue type of amino acids has intrinsic propensities in different regions of secondary structures for different folding types of proteins. Each of the folding types shows markedly different rank ordering, indicating folding type-specific effects on the secondary structure propensities of amino acids. Rigorous statistical tests have been made to validate the folding type-specific effects. It should be noted that α and β proteins have relatively small α-helices and β-strands forming propensities respectively compared with those of α+β and α/β proteins. This may suggest that, with more complex architectures than α and β proteins, α+β and α/β proteins require larger propensities to distinguish from interacting α-helices and β-strands. Our finding of folding type-specific secondary structure propensities suggests that sequence space accessible to each folding type may have differing features. Differing sequence space features might be constrained by topological requirement for each of the folding types. Almost all strong β-sheet forming residues are hydrophobic in character regardless of folding types, thus suggesting the hydrophobicities of side chains as a key determinant of β-sheet structures. In contrast, conformational entropy of side chains is a major determinant of the helical propensities of amino acids, although other interactions such as hydrophobicities and charged interactions cannot be neglected. These results will be helpful to protein design, class-based secondary structure prediction, and protein folding. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Biopoly 45: 35-49, 1998

    Notes: DNA branched junctions are analogues of Holliday junction recombination intermediates. Partially mobile junctions contain a limited amount of homology flanking the branch point. A partially mobile DNA branched junction has been incorporated into a synthetic double-stranded circular DNA molecule. The junction is flanked by four homologous nucleotide pairs, so that there are five possible locations for the branch point. Two opposite arms of the branched junction are joined to form the circular molecule, which contains 262 nucleotides to the base of the junction. This molecule represents a system whereby torque applied to the circular molecule can have an impact on the junction, by relocating its branch point. Ligation of the molecule produces two topoisomers; about 87% of the product is a relaxed molecule, and the rest is a molecule with one positive supercoil. The position of the branch point is assayed by cleaving the molecule with endonuclease VII. We find that the major site of the branch point in the relaxed topoisomer is at the maximally extruded position in the relaxed molecule. Upon the addition of ethidium, the major site of the branch point migrates to the minimally extruded position. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Biopoly 45: 69-83, 1998

The applicability of the technique was tested, and the effects of salt type and salt composition on the molar mass and radius of gyration were studied. A conformational ordering was induced at room temperature by switching the solvent from 0.1M NaCl (coil form) to 0.1M NaI (helix form). An approximate doubling of the average molar mass and an increase in radius of gyration was then observed, in agreement with results obtained previously using size exclusion chromatography-MALS. This increase in size was attributed to conformational ordering and to the formation of double helices. Severe aggregation was observed above 40% CsI in the 0.1M mixed salt solution of CsI and NaI. This was ascribed to the association of helices into large aggregates. For these large associates, having molar masses of several millions, a reversal of the elution order in flow FFF was detected. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Biopoly 45: 85-96 1998

    Notes: In this article a conformational analysis of the D-alanyl-D-alanine dipeptide, both charged and neutral, has been carried out. The preferred conformations were determined by means of ab initio and semiempirical quantum, together with empirical force field calculations. The AMBER* force field and the 6-31 + G** and 6-31G** ab initio levels give rise to a coincident minimum energy structure, which, on the other hand, differs from that determined by AM1, 3-21 + G, and 3-21G. The solvent effect on the different charged and neutral conformations have been considered through the AMSOL semiempirical method. A quantification regarding the structural similarities between the different dipeptide conformations and the ampicillin has been performed. The results show that the best overlay is attained by the minimum structure energy obtained by using the 6-31 + G** methodology, which presents a planar amidic nitrogen. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The conformational behavior of different molecular weight fractions of a synthetic C6-oxidized derivative of cellulose were investigated by means of capillary viscometry, CD, and microcalorimetric measurements. Experiments were carried out in the presence of either monovalent or divalent counterions.The experimental data indicated that C6-oxidized cellulose can assume an ordered extended conformation at low ionic strength, induced by the intrachain repulsions of negative charges. This conformation was suggested to be very similar to the fully extended structure of cellulose. In addition to this, upon increasing the ionic strength, a conformational transition of the order-to-disorder type occurred. In fact, the screening of the electrostatic repulsions introduced a number of conformational kinks into the cellulosic backbone, which enabled the polymer to assume a more coiled conformation hence producing less viscous aqueous solutions. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: A new method is proposed for the determination of the enthalpy and entropy changes of nonionic origin upon conformational transition of linear biopolyelectrolytes in solution. For all transition midpoints, defined by given temperature and ionic strength, the total free energy change of the system is zero, which means that the nonionic contribution to the free energy change is equal in value and opposite in sign to the polyelectrolytic one. The counterion condensation theory of linear polyelectrolytes provides for the appropriate analytical expression to be used in such calculations. Linear plots of the proper functions of the calculated free energy changes vs the proper functions of temperature allows for the determination of the enthalpic and entropic terms of the nonionic free energy change of transition.The method has been applied to the extensive available data of the ion-induced conformational change of κ-carrageenan, a linear sulfated galactan extracted from seaweeds. The method has proved very successful, with the results showing a remarkable convergency of the enthalpy values for different monovalent counterions. On the other hand, the above approach has made it possible to explain the known effect of counterion specificity on the transition by a small difference in the nonionic entropic contributions. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Ultraviolet resonance Raman (UVRR) spectra of H2O and D2O solutions of the nucleoside (dA, dG, dC, dT) and aromatic amino acid (Phe, Trp, Tyr) constituents of DNA viruses have been obtained with laser excitation wavelengths of 257, 244, 238, and 229 nm. Using the 981 cm-1 marker of Na2SO4 as an internal standard, Raman frequencies and scattering cross sections were evaluated for all prominent UVRR bands at each excitation wavelength. The results show that UVRR cross sections of both the nucleosides and amino acids are strongly dependent on excitation wavelength and constitute sensitive and selective probes of the residues. The results provide a library of UVRR marker bands for structural analysis of DNA viruses and other nucleoprotein assemblies. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Biopoly 45: 247-256, 1998

    Notes: The quaternary structure of Lumbricus terrestris hemoglobin was investigated by small-angle x-ray scattering (SAXS). Based on the SAXS data from several independent experiments, a three-dimensional (3D) consensus model was established to simulate the solution structure of this complex protein at low resolution (about 3 nm) and to yield the particle dimensions. The model is built up from a large number of small spheres of different weights, a result of the two-step procedure used to calculate the SAXS model. It accounts for the arrangement of 12 subunits in a hexagonal bilayer structure and for an additional central unit of cylinder-like shape. This model provides an excellent fit of the experimental scattering curve of the protein up to h = 1 nm-1 and a nearly perfect fit of the experimental distance distribution function p(r) in the whole range. Scattering curves and p(r) functions were also calculated for low-resolution models based on 3D reconstructions obtained by cryoelectron microscopy (EM). The calculated functions of these models also provide a very good fit of the experimental scattering curve (even at h 〉 1 nm-1) and p(r) function, if hydration is taken into account and the original model coordinates are slightly rescaled. The comparison of models reveals that both the SAXS-based and the EM-based model lead to a similar simulation of the protein structure and to similar particle dimensions. The essential differences between the models concern the hexagonal bilayer arrangement (eclipsed in the SAXS model, one layer slightly rotated in the EM model), and the mass distribution, mainly on the surface and in the central part of the protein complex. © John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: Conformations of the α-l-Rhap(1-2)-β-d-Glc1-OMe and β-d-Galp(1-3)-β-d-Glc1-OMe disaccharides and the branched title trisaccharide were examined in DMSO-d6 solution by 1H-nmr. The distance mapping procedure was based on rotating frame nuclear Overhauser effect (NOE) constraints involving C- and O-linked protons, and hydrogen-bond constraints manifested by the splitting of the OH nmr signals for partially deuteriated samples. An “isotopomer-selected NOE” method for the unequivocal identification of mutually hydrogen-bonded hydroxyl groups was suggested. The length of hydrogen bonds thus detected is considered the only one motionally nonaveraged nmr-derived constraint. Molecular mechanics and molecular dynamics methods were used to model the conformational properties of the studied oligosaccharides. Complex conformational search, relying on a regular Φ,Ψ-grid based scanning of the conformational space of the selected glycosidic linkage, combined with simultaneous modeling of different allowed orientations of the pendant groups and the third, neighboring sugar residue, has been carried out. Energy minimizations were performed for each member of the Φ,Ψ grid generated set of conformations. Conformational clustering has been done to group the minimized conformations into families with similar values of glycosidic torsion angles. Several stable syn and anti conformations were found for the 1→2 and 1→3 bonds in the studied disaccharides. Vicinal glycosylation affected strongly the occupancy of conformational states in both branches of the title trisaccharide. The preferred conformational family of the trisaccharide (with average Φ,Ψ values of 38°, 17° for the 1→2 and 48°, 1° for the 1→3 bond, respectively) was shown by nmr to be stabilized by intramolecular hydrogen bonding between the nonbonded Rha and Gal residues. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Notes: The present study was undertaken to examine the structural features that may be important to explain the immunogenicity of the (110-121) peptide sequence (FWRGDLVFDFQV) of VP3 capsid protein of hepatitis A virus. A conformational analysis of the preferred conformations by CD and molecular mechanics was carried out. Present results suggest that the interaction with liposomes as biomembrane model induces and stabilizes the amphipathic β-structure of the peptide.To study the contribution of amino acid replacements at the RGD tripeptide as well as the influence of the peptide chain length on peptide conformation, solid-phase peptide synthesis of several peptide analogs was carried out and the peptide conformation was studied using CD spectroscopy. The results show that the RGD sequence is necessary to induce the β-structure in the presence of liposomes. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Biopoly 45: 479-492, 1998

    Notes: The critical volume fractions pertaining to the formation of DNA liquid crystals were obtained from polarization microscopy, 31P-nmr, and phase separation experiments. The DNA length (approximately one to two times the persistence length 50 nm), ionic strength, and counterion variety dependencies are reported. The cholesteric-isotropic transition is interpreted in terms of the coexistence equations, which are derived from the solution free energy including orientational entropy and excluded volume effects. With the wormlike chain as reference system, the electrostatic contribution to the free energy is evaluated as a thermodynamic perturbation in the second virial approximation with a Debye-Hückel potential of mean force. The hard core contribution has been evaluated with scaled particle theory and/or a simple generalization of the Carnahan-Starling equation of state for hard spheres. For sufficiently high ionic strengths, the agreement is almost quantitative. At lower amounts of added salt deviations are observed, which are tentatively attributed to counterion screening effects. The contour length dependence agrees with a DNA persistence length 50 nm. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. Biopoly 46: 31-37, 1998
