    Dielectric properties of hydrated collagen (1979)

    Notes: Dielectric measurements have been carried out on partially hydrated collagen in the frequency ranges 100 kHz-5 MHz, 100 MHz-1 GHz, and 8-23 GHz. In the low-frequency range, a dispersion was observed around 100 kHz which results from inhomogeneous conductivity of the samples. A dielectric relaxation was observed aroud 0.3 GHz using time-domain-spectroscopy techniques. This relaxation can be considered to originate from mobile side chains. Microwave measurements indicate that the water relaxation may extend into the 10-GHz region. An apparent discrepancy between the main water relaxation time and the average rotational correlation time of water as measured by nmr line widths was resolved by the assumption that a fraction of the water molecules is bound to the collagen with residence times on the order of 10-6 sec, whereas the remainder of the water is only weakly bound and exhibits rotational rates on the order of 10-10 sec.

    Notes: A model for the time dependence of DNA conformational state probabilities is formulated in the form of first-order differential equations. This model is applied to investigate the renaturation and denaturation rates for T2 and T7 DNA as reported in the series of experiments by Record and Zimm. Qualitative agreement is found in denaturation and for series of renaturation experiments with the same initial condition. However, partial agreement with series of renaturation experiments having the same final condition is obtained only by including an initial bimolecular step with properly matched pairs of strands. Comparison of all experiments with the calculated rates yields 5 × 104 min-1 as the step rate for melting a single base pair.

    The influence of asymmetric carbon atoms of the side chains on the conformational properties of polypeptides: Comparison of diastereomeric homooligopeptides of L-isoleucine and D-alloisoleucineTaken in part from a dissertation submitted by U.W. in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Ph.D. degree, Eidg.

    Notes: The conventionally protected oligopeptides of the two homologous series Boc-(L-Ile)n-OMe and Boc-(D-aIle)n-OMe (n = 2-6) were synthesized in a standard stepwise fashion and their uv and CD spectra in 2,2,2-trifluoroethanol, and solid-state ir spectra were investigated. In addition, two oligomeric products derived from the NCAs of L-isoleucine and of D-allo-isoleucine and having a DP of 20 and 12, respectively, were studied in the solid state by x-ray and ir. No substantial differences between the properties of the diastereomeric oligomers in the solid state were noticed, a β-structure being very likely at least for the Boc-protected hexapeptides and the higher oligomers. In contrast, differences were observed between the spectroscopic properties of the diastereomeric oligopeptides, and especially of the hexapeptides, in trifluoroethanol solution. The different properties of the hexapeptides in solution were related to the existence, in the case of Boc-(L-Ile)6-OMe, of soluble molecular aggregates in which the peptide chains assume the β-conformation. These results provide an additional example of the influence of the configuration of asymmetric carbon atoms of the side chains on the conformational properties of peptide molecules in solution.

    Notes: The 1H-nmr chemical shifts and the spin-spin coupling constants of the common amino acid residues were measured in solutions of the linear tetrapeptides H-Gly-Gly-X-L-Ala-OH in D2O and H2O, the influence of X on the nmr parameters of the neighboring residues Gly 2 and Ala 4 was investigated. The titration parameters for the side chains of Asp, Glu, Lys, Tyr, and His were determined. The pKa values obtained in D2O, with the use of pH-meter readings with a combination glass electrode uncorrected for istope effects, were 0.06 pH units higher in the acidic range and 0.10 pH units higher in the basic range than the corresponding pKa values in H2O. This suggests that the present data are suitable “random-coil” 1H-nmr parameters for conformational studies of polypeptide chains in D2O and H2O solutions.

    Use of amide 1H-nmr titration shifts for studies of polypeptide conformation (1979)

    Notes: This paper shows that backbone amide proton titration shifts in polypeptide chains are a very sensitive manifestation of intramolecular hydrogen bonding between carboxylate groups and backbone amide protons. The population of specific hydrogen-bonded structures in the ensemble of species that constitutes the conformation of a flexible nonglobular linear peptide can be determined from the extent of the titration shifts. As an illustration, an investigation of the molecular conformation of the linear peptide H-Gly-Gly-L-Glu-L-Ala-OH is described. The proposed use of amide proton titration shifts for investigating polypeptide conformation is based on 360-MHz 1H-nmr studies of selected linear oligopeptides in H2O solutions. It was found that only a very limited number of amide protons in a polypeptide chain show sizable intrinsic intration shifts arising from through-bond interactions with ionizable groups. These are the amide proton of the C-terminal amino acid residue, the amide protons of Asp and the residues following Asp, and possibly the amide proton of the residue next to the N-terminus. Since the intrinsic titration shifts are upfield, the downfield titration shifts arising from conformation-dependent through-space interactions, in particular hydrogen bonding between the amide protons and carboxylate groups, can readily be identified.

    Conformational energy calculations with averaged potential functions: Application to the repeat peptides of elastin (1979)

    Notes: We present a method that can reduce conformational energy calculations for an arbitrary peptide consisting of n residues (n-peptide) to the complexity of a computation for (Gly)n. This reduction, and the concomitant savings in computer time, is accomplished by replacing all side chains, as well as the backbone CαHα and CαH2α groups, by “interaction centers.” The backbone CONH group is left intact in order to preserve its directional character. The interaction centers “see” each other, and the atoms of the CONH group via Boltzmann and space-averaged effective center-center and center-atom potentials, respectively. This averaged-interaction method is tested on the repeat tetra-, penta-, and hexapeptides of elastin, Val-Pro-Gly-Gly (VPGG), Val-Pro-Gly-Val-Gly (VPGVP), and Ala-Pro-Gly-Val-Gly-Val (APGVGV), using the stereoalphabet strategy for the energy calculations. The excellent qualitative and quantitative agreement we obtain with both full atom-atom calculations and extensive nmr data, coupled with the order-of-magnitude reduction in computer time, augurs well for the potential usefulness of the method.

    Circular dichroism of helical polynucleotides calculated by the linear response method (1979)

    Notes: Linear response theory in the decorrelation or random-phase approximation is used to calculate the absorption and CD spectra of model helical polymers, including single-stranded polyadenylic acid. The method, which makes use of infinite polymer selection rules for the linear response tensor, has the advantages that (1) only a few three-dimensional matrices need be inverted; (2) spectral band shapes of the polymer arise naturally from those of the monomer, as well as from the geometry-dependent interactions in the helix; and (3) the spectral dependence on geometrical factors of the helix is made transparent. It is found that the structure of the polymer CD spectrum depends critically on monomer bandshape. An asymmetric CD spectrum, similar to some experimental spectra, arises from either a Gaussian or a composite monomer band. Single-stranded polyadenylic acid spectra are sensitive to helix geometry in the region 200-240 nm, in reasonable agreement with experimental spectra. This sensitivity arises from the 207-nm monomer transition, and the results suggest that this region of the spectrum should be more fully exploited as a tool for helix geometry studies.

    Notes: C24H34N2O9, orthorhombic, P212121; a = 39.432 (10), b = 14.061 (5), c = 4.850 (2) Å, M = 494 a.m.u., Z = 4, Dm = 1.22 g cm-3, Dx = 1.22 g cm-3, R = 0.13 for 1205 observed reflections after refinement with isotropic thermal factors. The urethane and amide bonds are in the trans configuration, as well as all the ester groups. The ϕ and ψ angles of the L-glutamyl residues fall in the β-structure region of the Ramachandran's plot; the molecule is rather flat with the amide plane almost parallel to the c axis along which two hydrogen bonds hold the molecules together to form long rows in a “parallel pleated-sheet” fashion.

    Notes: The far-ir absorption spectrum of lysozyme was measured at room and liquid-nitrogen temperatures. Dried layers of single crystals of tetragonal lysozyme chloride with a diameter of 100-300 μm were grown on a silicon plate. Such single-crystalline samples were considered to have the following advantages in obtaining far-ir spectra: (1) surface scattering is reduced, (2) the protein molecules are closely packed, and (3) air-drying of the crystals reduces the number of water molecules without considerably changing the original configuration. The spectrum obtained consisted of a strong background absorption and a number of absorption peaks that were not clearly observed with the sample in the form of lyophilized powder. The peaks were ascribed to various delocalized vibrations of the main and side chains in the molecule. The peaks were also compared with the positions of Raman lines. The uniform background was assigned to the water molecules remaining in the crystals.

    Helix-coil transition of the dG-dC-dG-dC self-complementary duplex and complex formation with daunomycin in solution (1979)

    Notes: The duplex-to-strand transition of the self-complementary sequence dG-dC-dG-dC has been probed at the exchangeable and nonexchangeable protons and backbone phosphates by high-resolution nmr spectroscopy. The Watson-Crick imino and amino hydrogen-bonded protons, as well as the exposed amino protons, could be followed through the duplex-to-strand transition and provide information on base-pair stability at the tetranucleotide duplex level. The magnitudes of the experimental upfield nonexchangeable base-proton chemical shifts on duplex formation are consistent with calculations based on base-pair overlap geometries of the B-DNA type. The variation of the 31P chemical shifts in dG-dC-dG-dC with temperature appear to monitor changes in the ω,ω′ rotation angles about the O—P bonds in the postmelting transition temperature region. The complex formed between the antitumor anthracycline antibiotic daunomycin and the dG-dC-dG-dC duplex was probed at the nucleic acid and the antibiotic resonances as a function of temperature. The experimental complexation shifts of the observable daunomycin resonances have put constraints on possible overlap geometries between the intercalating anthracycline ring and adjacent base pairs.
