Conformational Study on Pheromonotropin neuropeptide using NMR and Molecular Dynamics
Pheromonotropic neuropeptide, Pseudaletia pheromonotropin, is an 18 amino acid peptide with the sequence Lys-Leu-Ser-Tyr-Asp-Asp-Lys-Val-Phe-Glu-Asn-Val-Glu-Phe-Thr-Pro-Arg-Leu which is widely distributed in female moths of Bombyx mori. This peptide is structurally related to leucopyrokinin, an insect myotropic neuropeptide, responsible for melanization and reddish coloration hormone (MRCH) act...
متن کاملMulti-Timescale Conformational Dynamics of the SH3 Domain of CD2-Associated Protein using NMR Spectroscopy and Accelerated Molecular Dynamics**
The determination of three-dimensional atomic resolution protein structure underpins our understanding of many biological processes, providing descriptions of the molecular basis of physiologically important interactions between biochemically active molecules. However, a complete understanding of the relationship between biological activity and molecular conformation also requires a description...
متن کاملConformational investigation of a cyclic enterobacterial common antigen employing NMR spectroscopy and molecular dynamics simulations.
The three-dimensional structure of a cyclic enterobacterial common antigen (ECA) having four trisaccharide repeating units has been investigated by NMR spectroscopy and molecular dynamics simulations. Three different NMR parameters were determined: (a) (1)H,(1)H cross-relaxation rates from NOE experiments were used for determination of proton-proton distances; (b) trans-glycosidic (3)J(C,H) sca...
متن کاملStudy of conformational properties of a biologically active peptide of fibronectin by circular dichroism, NMR and molecular dynamics simulation.
Circular dichroism (CD), and NMR spectra have been recorded and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations have been performed in water and water-trifluoroethanol (TFE) mixed solvent for a synthetic biologically active 13-amino-acid fragment of human fibronectin and two related peptides. The CD results are interpreted on the basis of statistical analyses of MD trajectories and of ensuing calculations ...
