Estimating pKa values for pentaoxyphosphoranes.
pKa values are estimated independently, by two entirely different methods, for the ionizations of the apical and equatorial OH groups of two representative hydroxyphosphoranes. A bond length-pKa correlation based on crystal structures of cyclohexanol derivatives gives values of 13.5 +/- 1.5 and 8.62 +/- 1.87, respectively, for the apical and equatorial OH groups of tetracyclohexyloxyhydroxyphos...
متن کاملpKD: re-designing protein pKa values
The pK(a) values in proteins govern the pH-dependence of protein stability and enzymatic activity. A large number of mutagenesis experiments have been carried out in the last three decades to re-engineer the pH-activity and pH-stability profile of enzymes and proteins. We have developed the pKD webserver (http://polymerase.ucd.ie/pKa_Design), which predicts sets of point mutations that will cha...
متن کاملMicroscopic pKa values of Escherichia coli thioredoxin.
Thiol:disulfide oxidoreductases have a CXXC motif within their active sites. To initiate the reduction of a substrate disulfide bond, the thiolate form of the N-terminal cysteine residue (CXXC) of this motif performs a nucleophilic attack. Escherichia coli thioredoxin [Trx (CGPC)] is the best characterized thiol:disulfide oxidoreductase. Previous determinations of the active-site pKa values of ...
متن کاملMembrane Environment Modulates the pKa Values of Transmembrane Helices
In this work, we apply the recently developed constant pH molecular dynamics technique to study protonation equilibria of titratable side chains in the context of simple transmembrane (TM) helices and explore the effect of pH on their configurations in membrane bilayers. We observe that, despite a significant shift toward neutral states, considerable population of different side chains stay in ...
متن کاملDevelopment of Methods for the Determination of pKa Values
The acid dissociation constant (pKa) is among the most frequently used physicochemical parameters, and its determination is of interest to a wide range of research fields. We present a brief introduction on the conceptual development of pKa as a physical parameter and its relationship to the concept of the pH of a solution. This is followed by a general summary of the historical development and...
