Notes:
The Cd(II) complex of a peptide, Z-Cys-Ala-Pro-His-OMe was prepared and characterized by absorption, CD, 1H-, 13C-, and 113Cd-nmr, and nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy (NOESY) spectra to show the coordination of cysteine thiolate and histidine imizazole to Cd(II) ion. The NOESY spectra in dimethyl formamide showed that the cysteine residue was in proximity to the histidine residue. These results reveal the dictation of Z-Cys-Ala-Pro-His-OMe to Cd(II) ion in solution. Temperature-dependent dissociation equilibrium of histidine imidazole in solution was observed in this complex. Structural features of the chelating peptide are discussed. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
