Pressure Dependence of 15N Chemical Shifts in Model Peptides Ac-Gly-Gly-X-Ala-NH2
High pressure NMR spectroscopy has developed into an important tool for studying conformational equilibria of proteins in solution. We have studied the amide proton and nitrogen chemical shifts of the 20 canonical amino acids X in the random-coil model peptide Ac-Gly-Gly-X-Ala-NH2, in a pressure range from 0.1 to 200 MPa, at a proton resonance frequency of 800 MHz. The obtained data allowed the...
متن کاملPharmacological characterization of the new stable antiarrhythmic peptide analog Ac-D-Tyr-D-Pro-D-Hyp-Gly-D-Ala-Gly-NH2 (ZP123): in vivo and in vitro studies.
Antiarrhythmic peptides (AAPs) are a group of compounds with antiarrhythmic properties; however, their use has been hampered by very low plasma stability. The aim of this study was to compare the in vitro and in vivo stability of our new stable AAP analog Ac-d-Tyr-d-Pro-d-Hyp-Gly-d-Ala-Gly-NH2 (ZP123) with the previously described AAP analog AAP10. Moreover, the effect of the two compounds was ...
متن کاملEnzymic methylation of arginyl residues in -gly-arg-gly- peptides.
N(G)-Methylation of arginine residues in many nucleic-acid-binding proteins are formed post-translationally, catalysed by S-adenosylmethionine:protein-arginine N-methyltransferase in their glycine-rich and arginine-rich motifs. The amino acid sequences of the stimulator of HIV-1 TAR (Tat-responsive element) RNA-binding protein (SRB) and fibronectin also show the presence of the internal -Gly-Ar...
متن کاملApplication of evolutionary algorithm methods to polypeptide folding: comparison with experimental results for unsolvated Ac-(Ala-Gly-Gly)5-LysH+.
We present an evolutionary method for finding the low-energy conformations of polypeptides. The application, called FOLDAWAY,is based on a generic framework and uses several evolutionary operators as well as local optimization to navigate the complex energy landscape of polypeptides. It maintains two complementary representations of the structures and uses the CHARMM force field for evaluating ...
متن کاملRadiation chemical studies of Gly-Met-Gly in aqueous solution.
Important biological consequences are related to the reaction of HO• radicals with methionine (Met). Several fundamental aspects remain to be defined when Met is an amino acid residue incorporated in the interior of peptides and proteins. The present study focuses on Gly-Met-Gly, the simplest peptide where Met is not a terminal residue. The reactions of HO• with Gly-Met-Gly and its N-acetyl der...
