The tripeptide sequence arginine-glycine-aspartic acid (RGD) has been shown to be the key recognition segment in numerous cell adhesion proteins. The solution conformation and dynamics in DMSO-d6 of the cyclic pentapeptides, Ac-Cys-Arg-Gly-Asp-Cys-OH (CRGDC), a potent fibrinogen receptor antagonist, and Ac-Cys-Arg-Gly-D-Asp-Cys-OH (CRGdC), a weak fibrinogen receptor antagonist, have been characterized by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and molecular modeling. 1H-1H distance constraints derived from two-dimensional NOE spectroscopy and torsional angle constraints obtained from 3JNH-h α coupling constants, combined with computer-assisted modeling using conformational searching algorithms and energy minimization have allowed several low energy conformations of the peptides to be determined. Low temperature studies in combination with molecular dynamics simulations suggest that each peptide does not exist in a single, well-defined conformation, but as an equilibrating mixture of conformers in fast exchange on the NMR timescale. The experimental results can be fit by considering pairs of low energy conformers. Despite this inherent flexibility, distinct conformational preferences were found which may be related to the biological activity of the peptides. 相似文献

The effect of ester bond on the conformation of peptide molecule was studied by designing and synthesizing a model tetradepsipeptide cyclo(-l -Ala-l -Hmb-)z and by analyzing the conformation both theoretically and experimentally. Theoretical analysis showed that both ester and peptide bonds in the calculated low-energy conformations within 3 kcal/mol of the global minimum take a trans but distorted configuration. The distortion is larger in ester bonds than in peptide bonds. Further, the four carbonyls project from one side of the plane of the cyclic backbone, whereas the side chains project from the other side. These results are consistent with the experimental results obtained by NMR measurement; first, the coupling constant deduced from 1H-NMR species in DMSO-d6 is consistent with the dihedral angles of the calculated low-energy conformations; second, results of NOE measurement can reproduce the calculated configuration of the carbonyls and side chains. From the consistency between theoretical and experimental results, it is concluded that this model tetradepsipeptide takes an all-trans backbone conformation in solution and this backbone conformation is stabilized by large distortion in the ester bond, which compensates the strain resulted from the 12-membered cyclic backbone structure consisting only of L-residues. 相似文献

The Raman spectrum of [Leu5]-enkephalin in the solid state indicates the presence of a type I' ß bend, in agreement with X-ray data of Smith & Griffin (1978). In solution, this molecule takes on different conformations in different solvents. In DMSO-d6, it forms a ß-bend structure whereas in water it exists as an ensemble of conformations. 相似文献

A conformational study has been carried out on a series of linear proline-containing oligopeptides (ZGP, ZGPL, ZGPLG and ZGPLGP) in both the crystalline state and in DMSO-d6, solution, using Raman and n.m.r. spectroscopy. The amide I and HI bands in the Raman spectra of the crystalline forms indicate the presence of a type I β-bend conformation in ZGPLG and ZGPLGP, but not in ZGP and ZGPL. This result is in agreement with X-ray data on these mole cules. The Raman spectra of these peptides in solution indicate that more than one conformation is present, i.e. that the β-bend structure of the solid form of ZGPLG and ZGPLGP is destabilized by DMSO-d6. 13C and 1H n.m.r. data also demonstrate the presence of more than one conformation in ZGP, ZGPL, ZGPLG and ZGPLGP in DMSO-d6 solution. These isomers differ in their con formation (cis and trans) about their Gly-Pro peptide bonds and possibly about the Cα-C' bond of the C-terminal proline in ZGPLGP. For ZGP, ZGPL, ZGPLG and ZGPLGP, the ensemble of conformations in DMSO-d6 includes C5 and C7 hydrogen-bonded rings; in addition, ZGPLGP may contain a small percentage of a β-bend conformation (at Pro2-Leuj3) with trans peptides in both Gly-Pro moieties. 相似文献

Two analogues of Scyliorhinin I (ScyI), a tachykinin with N‐MeLeu in position 8 and a 1,5‐disubstituted tetrazole ring between positions 7 and 8, introduced in order to generate local conformational constraints, were synthesized using the solid‐phase method. Conformational studies in water and DMSO‐d6 were performed on these peptides using a combination of the two‐dimensional NMR technique and theoretical conformational analysis. The algorithm of conformational search consisted of the following three stages: (i) extensive global conformational analysis in order to find all low‐energy conformations; (ii) calculation of the NOE effects and vicinal coupling constants for each of the low energy conformations; (iii) determining the statistical weights of these conformations by means of a nonlinear least‐squares procedure, in order to obtain the best fit of the averaged simulated spectrum to the experimental one. In both solvents the three‐dimensional structure of the analogues studied can be interpreted only in terms of an ensemble of multiple conformations. For [MeLeu8]ScyI, the C‐terminal 6–10 fragment adopts more rigid structure than the N‐terminal one. In the case of the analogue with the tetrazole ring in DMSO‐d6 the three‐diemnsional structure is characterized by two dominant conformers with similar geometry of their backbones. They superimpose especially well (RMSD = 0.28 Å) in the 6–9 fragments. All conformers calculated in both solvents superimpose in their C‐terminal fragments much better than those of the first analogue. The results obtained indicate that the introduction of the tetrazole ring into the ScyI molecule rigidifies its structure significantly more than that of MeLeu. 相似文献

The solution conformations in methanol and chloroform of the endothelin A receptor antagonists cyclo(dV-L-dW-dD-P), 1, and cyclo(dV-Nα-MeL-dW-dD-P), 2, have been studied by NMR spectroscopy at room temperature and below. In these solvents, both peptides were found to have a well defined peptide backbone conformation composed of a type II β turn at the Leu-D-Trp and a γ′ turn at Pro. This conformation is in agreement with results reported for 1 in other solvents and consistent with the expected location of the N-methyl substituent in that backbone. In methanol, both peptides show NOE and chemical shift evidence of close contact between the Leu and D-Trp side chains. This interaction is greatly reduced or absent in chloroform, and is stronger in methanol at 203 K than at 298 K. 相似文献

The solution structures of DPDPE, a conformationally restricted pentapeptide with the sequence H-Tyr1-d -Pen2-Gly3-Phe4-d -Pen5-OH, and its four β-MePhe4-substituted analogs were examined by a combined approach including the NMR measurements in DMSO and water as well as independent energy calculations. It was concluded that several low energy conformers of DPDPE backbone satisfy the NMR data obtained in this study as well as in previous studies by other authors. These possible solution conformers of DPDPE in both DMSO and water share virtually the same type of cyclic backbone structure, with the Gly3 residue in a conformation close to a γ-turn, and the Phe4 residue in a conformation close to α-helical torsion angles. They differ in the space arrangements of the flexible Tyr1 moiety. The solution structures of the β-MePhe4-substituted analogs of DPDPE are interesting. For analogs with an S-configuration at the Cα atom in the Phe4 residue, the cyclic backbone conformations resemble those of DPDPE itself, whereas for analogs with an R-configuration at the Cα atom, the backbone conformation is somewhat different. This observation is in line with the high biological potencies and selectivities displayed by the former compounds but not by the latter ones. It was noted also that as far as the peptide backbone conformers are concerned, some of the possible DPDPE conformers in water are similar to the previously suggested model for the δ-receptor-bound conformation of DPDPE, becoming virtually identical to this conformation by rotating the side chains of the Tyr1 and the Phe4 residues. 相似文献

The cyclic pseudopentapeptide cyclo[Gly-Proψ[CH2NH]Gly-D-Phe-Pro] and its TFA salt were synthesized by solution methods, and their conformations were studied by NMR spectroscopy in both DMSO-d6 and CDC13. While intramolecular hydrogen bonding is observed with some conformers, the nature of the solvent and the presence of TFA affects the relative structural rigidities of the compounds. No evidence was found for the ψ[CH2NH] or ψ[CH2NH+2] units acting as H donors in this series. 相似文献

Two-dimensional 1H-15N HMBC NMR spectra of the well-known anticonvulsant carbamazepine dissolved in different organic solvents, recorded on an NMR spectrometer prove the existence of hidden conformers in saturated solutions. Obtained conformer distribution arises due to the presence of the solid phase in saturated solution. A weak influence of ring currents was revealed for different molecular conformations of carbamazepine dissolved in a saturated solution, which provides a simple approach to discovering hidden conformations. Hidden conformers were found in three different solvents: dimethyl sulfoxide, chloroform, and dichloromethane. 相似文献

The conformational behaviour of pepstatin (Iva-Val-Val-Sta-Ala-Sta) and of two derived renin inhibitors, Boc-Phe-Nle-Sta-Ala-Sta-OMe, 1, and Boc-Phe-Nle-X-Ala-Sta-OMe, 2 (X = -NH-CH(iPr)-CHOH-CH2-CO-) was assessed in DMSO-d6 at various temperatures and in deuteriopyridine at -35°. Complete assignment of almost all proton signals was achieved by 2D COSY, 2D NOESY and selective NOE experiments. The three compounds show similar extended conformations in both solvents, with the hydrophobic lateral chains extending away from the peptide backbone. In the case of pepstatin the solvated conformation is closely related to the structure found in the crystal of the pepstatin-Rhizopus chinensis complex. Strong NOE effects and precise determination of vicinal coupling constants show the lack of large structural differences between 1 and 2 at the level of the internal Sta or X residues, which are assumed to interact with the aspartyl residues of the renin active-site. This suggests that the 100-fold lower inhibitory potency of 2 is mainly due to unfavorable close contacts of the β-branched residue X with constituent amino acids of the enzyme. 相似文献

NMR spectroscopy has been employed for the conformational analysis of the cyclic hexapeptide cycle(-d -Pro1-Ala2-Ser3(Bzl)-Trp4-Orn5(Z)-Tyr6-) with and without protecting groups on Ser3 and Orn5. This peptide sequence was derived from the active loop sequence of the α-amylase inhibitor Tendamistat (HOE 467). The aim was to investigate the role of serine in position i of a standard β-turn on the conformation and stabilization of this turn. Based on distance and torsion constraints from 2D NMR spectroscopic measurements in DMSO-d6 solution, structure refinement was accomplished by restrained molecular dynamics (MD) simulations in vacuo and in DMSO. The analysis of both structures in solution reveals a considerable effect of the unprotected serine sidechain on the adjacent β-turn conformation. While in the protected peptide with Ser3(Bzl) a βII-turn is observed between Trp4 and Orn5, the deprotected compound reveals a βI-turn in this region. The βI-turn is stabilized by a backbone-sidechain hydrogen bond from Orn5NαH to Ser3Oγ. Comparisons with other NMR-derived solution structures of cyclic model peptides and in some protein structures from literature reveal a general structural motif in the stabilization of βI-turns by serine in the i position through backbone-sidechain interactions. © Munksgaard 1995. 相似文献

A solid-state and solution conformation analyses of the cyclopentapeptide cyclo(Phe-Phe-Aib-Leu-Pro) has been carried out by X-ray diffraction and nuclear magnetic resonance techniques. The structure of the hexagonal crystals, grown from a methanol solution [a=b= 16.530(4) Å, c= 21.356(9) Å, space group P65, Z = 6], shows the presence of one intramolecular N-H?O=C hydrogen bond with the formation of a γ-turn (C7). The Aib3 residue, at the center of the γ-turn, presents unexpected values of the torsion angles [φ= 70.5° and ψ= -73.8°], which have been observed only once before for this helicogenic residue. A cis peptide bond occurs between Leu4 and Pro5; all other peptide bonds are trans. The overall conformation for the cyclopentapeptide with one cis-peptide bond on one side and an intramolecular γ-turn on the opposite side results in an equatorial topology of the side-chains of the Phe1, Phe2 and Leu4 residues. Indeed, the Cα-Cβand Cβ-Cγ bonds of these residues lie approximately in the mean plane of the cyclic ring system. The structure is compared with data in the literature on cyclic pentapeptides. In addition the Pro-Phe-Phe moiety shows a conformation similar to that observed in other larger cyclic bioactive peptides, which indicates a reduced number of conformations for this sequence. The solution study was carried out in three different solvent systems: chloroform, acetonitrile and methanol in the temperature interval 220–300 K. In all three solvents the room temperature spectra show that the peptide is conformationally nonhomogeneous. In acetonitrile at low temperatures it is possible to reduce the conformational equilibrium to two predominant conformers which differ for the cis-trans isomerism of the Leu4-Pro5 peptide bond. 相似文献

The preferential conformations of the δ selective opioid peptides DPLPE (Tyr-c[D-Pen-Gly-Phe-Pen]) and DTLET (Tyr-D-Thr-Gly-Phe-Leu-Thr) were studied by 400 MHz 1H n.m.r. spectroscopy in DMSO-d6 solution. In neutral conditions, the weak NH temperature coefficients of the C-terminal residue (Pen5 or Thr6), associated with interproton NH-NH and α-NH NOE's (ROESY experiments), indicated large analogies between the backbone folding tendency of both the linear and cyclic peptides. Various γ and/or β turns may account for these experimental data. A similar orientation of the N-terminal tyrosine related to the folded backbones is observed for the two agonists, with a probable γ turn around the amino acid in position 2. Finally, a short distance, about 10 Å, between Tyr and Phe side chains and identical structural roles for threonyl and penicillamino residues are proposed for both peptides. These results suggest the occurrence of similar conformers in solution for the constrained peptide DPLPE and the flexible hexapeptide DTLET. Therefore, it may be hypothesized that the enhanced δ selectivity of DPLPE is related to a very large conformational expense of energy needed to interact with the μ opioid receptor, a feature not encountered in the case of DTLET. These findings might allow peptides to be designed retaining a high affinity for δ opioid receptors associated with a very low cross-reactivity with μ binding sites. 相似文献

A major conformation of cyclosporin A in methanol and in aqueous methanol was revealed by some simple NMR experiments. Thus, a stepwise transition of cyclosporin A conformation from 100% CDCl3 to 100% CD3OD was followed by 1H NMR, which showed that the chloroform conformation of cyclosporin A was still the major one in methanol. Employing the same technique, it was also shown that the chloroform conformation of cyclosporin A was one of the major conformations in 50% aqueous methanol. This may be the first experimental determination of a major conformation of cyclosporin A in polar solvents. 相似文献

Abstract: In order to make clear the structural role of the C‐terminal amide group of endomorphin‐2 (EM2, H‐Tyr‐Pro‐Phe‐Phe‐NH2), an endogenous µ‐receptor ligand, in the biological function, the solution conformations of endomorphin‐2 and its C‐terminal free acid (EM2OH, H‐Tyr‐Pro‐Phe‐Phe‐OH), studied using two‐dimensional 1H NMR measurements and molecular modeling calculations, were compared. Both peptides were in equilibrium between the cis and trans isomers around the Tyr‐Pro ω bond in a population ratio of ≈ 1 : 2. The lack of significant temperature and concentration dependence of NH protons suggested that the NMR spectra reflected the conformational features of the respective molecules themselves. Fifty possible 3D structures for the each isomer were generated by the dynamical simulated annealing method under the proton?proton distance constraints derived from the ROE cross‐peaks. These energy‐minimized conformers, which were all in the φ torsion angles estimated from JNHCαH coupling constants within ± 30°, were then classified in groups one or two according to the folding backbone structures. All trans and cis EM2 conformers adopt an open conformation in which their extended backbone structures are twisted at the Pro2–Phe3 moiety. In contrast, the trans and cis conformers of EM2OH show conformational variation between the ‘bow’‐shaped extended and folded backbone structures, although the cis conformers of its zwitterionic form are refined into the folded structure of the close disposition of C‐ and N‐terminal groups. These results indicate clearly that the substitution of carboxyl group for C‐terminal amide group makes the peptide flexible. The conformational requirement for µ‐receptor activation has been discussed based on the active form proposed for endomorphin‐1 and by comparing conformational features of EM2 and EM2OH. 相似文献

NMR and X-ray crystallographic studies have shown that cyclic pentapeptides of the general structure cyclo(D-Xxx-Pro-Gly-Pro-Gly) possess β- and γ-turn intramolecular hydrogen bonds. As part of our continuing series surveying the compatibility of various amide bond replacements on peptide structure, we have synthesized cyclo(D-Phe-Proψ [CH2S]Gly-Pro-Gly). The pseudopeptide was prepared by solid phase methods and cleaved from the resin by a new procedure involving phase transfer catalysis using K2CO3 and tetrabutylammonium hydrogen sulfate. Cyclization was carried out with the use of DPPA, HOBt, and DMAP to afford the product in 69% yield. The conformational behavior of the pseudopeptide was analyzed by 1H and 13C (1D and 2D) NMR techniques. The backbone modification replaced the amide bond that is involved in a γ-turn intramolecular hydrogen bond in the all-amide structure. In CDCl3, the pseudopeptide adopted the same all-trans conformation as its parent, although the remaining β-turn hydrogen bond was weaker according to Δδ/ΔTNH measurements. In DMSO-d6, the all-trans conformer and a second conformer were observed in a ratio of 55:45. These conformers, which slowly inter converted on the NMR time scale, could be separately assigned; peaks due to chemical exchange were readily distinguishable by the ROESY technique as reported earlier by others. 13C and ROESY experiments suggested the minor conformer contained one cis amide bond at the Gly1-Pro2 position. Thus, both the location and type of amide surrogate are important determinants affecting the compatibility of the replacement with a particular conformational feature. 相似文献

Six cyclic retro-analogues of the peptide hormone somatostatin have been synthesized using the solid phase technique. The peptides cyclo(-Xaa1-Phe2-Thr3-Lys4-Ybb5-Phe6-) and cyclo(-Phe1-Xaa2-Thr3-Lys4-Ybb5-Phe6-) with Xaa =d - or l -Pro and Ybb =d - or l -Trp were cyclized via the azide method. The conformations of the cyclic hexapeptides in DMSO-d6 solution were determined by a number of homo- and heteronuclear two-dimensional n.m.r.-techniques including 2D rotating frame NOE-spectroscopy. Two-step coherence transfers, ROE and chemical exchange, are observed for the first time in ROESY spectra. The backbone conformation of the all-trans cyclopeptides consists of a β-turn containing the Pro residue in the position i + 1. These retro-analogues of somatostatin exhibit a high activity in the inhibition of cholate and phalloidin uptake by liver cells (cytoprotective effect); however, the hormonal activities of the natural hormone are completely suppressed. The constitutional and conformational requirements for the cytoprotective activity are discussed. 相似文献

Three 1 ns length molecular dynamics simulations of an RGD peptide (Ac-Pen-Arg-Gly-Asp-Cys-NH2, with Pen denoting penicillamine) have been performed in aqueous solution, one for the disulfide bridged, and two for the unbridged form. The trajectories were analyzed to identify conformations explored by the two forms and to calculate several properties: NMR vicinal coupling constants, order parameters, dipole moments and diffusion coefficients, in an effort to describe the physical role of the disulfide bond. The cyclic peptide was able to explore several distinct backbone conformations centered around a turn–extended-turn structure. However, its flexibility was limited and it appeared to be ‘locked in’ into a a family of structures characterized by a high dipole moment and a well-defined conformation of the pharmacophore, which has been previously identified as biologically active. Excellent agreement between the simulated and observed NMR vicinal coupling constants indicates that realistic structures were sampled in the cyclic peptide simulation. The linear form of the peptide was much more flexible than the cyclic one. In the two independent 1 ns simulations of the linear form the explored conformations could be roughly grouped into two classes, of cyclic-like and extended type. Within each simulation the peptide switched between the two classes of structures several times. Exact matches between conformations in the two linear peptide simulations were not found; several conformational regions with backbone rms deviations below 1 Å were identified, suggesting that representative structures of the linear form have also been identified. In the linear peptide simulations the RGD pharmacophore is able to adopt a wide range of conformations, including the one preferred by the cyclic form. The lower biological activity of the linear peptide compared to the cyclic one may be correlated with the lower population of this structure in the absence of the disulfide bond. 相似文献

Abstract: We have previously described a disulfide‐linked cyclic nonapeptide (inhibitory peptide‐01, IP01), with the sequence CLLRMRSIC, which binds to intercellular adhesion molecule‐1 (ICAM‐1), and blocks binding to its counter‐structure, the integrin αLβ2 (leukocyte functional antigen‐1, LFA‐1) (Sillerud et al., J. Peptide Res. 62, 2003: 97). We now report the optimization of this peptide by means of single homologous amino acid substitutions to yield a new peptide (IP02‐K6; CLLRMKSAC) which shows an approximately sixfold improvement in inhibitory activity of multivalent leukocyte binding (inhibition constant for 50% inhibition, IC50 = 90 μm ) compared with IP01 (IC50 = 580 μm ). This improvement in activity gives IP02‐K6 potent in vivo activity in a murine model of ischemia reperfusion injury (Merchant et al., Am. J. Physiol. Heart Circ. 284, 2003: H1260). In order to determine the structural features relevant to ICAM‐1‐binding, we have determined the structure of IP02‐K6 using proton nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy and restrained molecular modeling. In our previously reported study of solution models of IP01, we observed three interconverting conformations during low‐temperature molecular dynamics simulation. In the present study, we find a single conformation of IP02‐K6 similar to one of the previously found conformations of IP01 (family C). In particular, an R4‐S7 β‐turn is present in similar proportions in both conformation C of IP01 and in IP02‐K6; this motif is important in binding to ICAM‐1 because this turn enables the IP02‐K6 backbone to drape over proline‐36 on ICAM‐1. The NMR‐derived solution model of IP02‐K6 was found to dock at the αLβ2‐binding site on ICAM‐1 with no changes in peptide backbone conformation. This docking model displaced five of the 15 αLβ2 residues at the ICAM‐1‐binding site and provided a rationale for understanding the quantitative relationship between IP02‐K6 structure and biologic activity. 相似文献
