Detection of salt bridges to lysines in solution in barnase.
نویسندگان
چکیده
We show that salt bridges involving lysines can be detected by deuterium isotope effects on NMR chemical shifts of the sidechain amine. Lys27 in the ribonuclease barnase is salt bridged, and mutation of Arg69 to Lys retains a partially buried salt bridge. The salt bridges are functionally important.

Characterization of salt bridges to lysines in the protein G B1 domain.
NMR investigations have been carried out on the B1 domain of protein G. This protein has six lysine residues, of which three are consistently found to form surface-exposed salt bridges in crystal structures, while the other three are not. The Nzeta and Hzeta chemical shifts of all six lysines are similar and are not affected significantly by pH titration of the carboxylate groups in the protein...
متن کاملThe Importance of α-CT and Salt bridges in the Formation of Insulin and its Receptor Complex by Computational Simulation
Insulin hormone is an important part of the endocrine system. It contains two polypeptide chains and plays a pivotal role in regulating carbohydrate metabolism. Insulin receptors (IR) located on cell surface interacts with insulin to control the intake of glucose. Although several studies have tried to clarify the interaction between insulin and its receptor, the mechanism of this interaction r...

متن کاملComparison Study on Neural Networks in Damage Detection of Steel Truss Bridge
This paper presents the application of three main Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) in damage detection of steel bridges. This method has the ability to indicate damage in structural elements due to a localized change of stiffness called damage zone. The changes in structural response is used to identify the states of structural damage. To circumvent the difficulty arising from the non-linear n...
متن کاملProtein-protein interaction: a genetic selection for compensating mutations at the barnase-barstar interface.
Barnase and barstar are trivial names of the extracellular RNase and its intracellular inhibitor produced by Bacillus amyloliquefaciens. Inhibition involves the formation of a very tight one-to-one complex of the two proteins. With the crystallographic solution of the structure of the barnase-barstar complex and the development of methods for measuring the free energy of binding, the pair can b...
