The interactions of poly‐L ‐glutamic acid and a cationic porphyrin derivative in aqueous solutions were studied by the combination of vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) and electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectroscopies. It was found that non‐covalent interactions between both agents influence the structure of the polymeric matrix and the guest porphyrins and vice versa, but the physico‐chemical properties of the solutions, especially the pH and the relative permittivity of the solvent, play a key role in the structure of the polypeptide part of the formed complexes. It was shown that the interaction with porphyrins prevents the precipitation of poly‐L ‐glutamic acid in aqueous solution at acidic pH. In special conditions, the porphyrins attached to the polypeptide probably possess face‐to‐face interaction as demonstrated by the enhancement of the characteristic ECD signal and the appearance of sidebands on its short and long wavelength sides.

Variations in the structure of d(GGGA)(5) oligonucleotide in the presence of Li(+), Na(+), and K(+) ions and its temperature stability were studied using electronic and vibrational circular dichroism, IR absorption, and ab initio calculations with the Becke 3-Lee-Yang-Parr functional at the 6-31G** level. The samples were characterized by nondenaturing gel electrophoresis. Oligonucleotide d(GGGA)(5) in the presence of Li(+) forms a nonplanar single tetramer, with angles of 102 degrees and 171 degrees between neighboring guanine bases. This tetramer changes its geometry at temperatures >50 degrees C, but does not form a quadruplex structure. In the presence of Na(+), the d(GGGA)(5) structure was optimized to almost planar tetramers with an angle of 177 degrees between neighboring guanines. The spectral results suggest that it stacks into a quadruplex helical structure. This quadruplex structure decayed to a single tetramer at temperatures >60 degrees C. The Hartree-Fock energies imply that d(GGGA)(5) prefers to form complexes with Na(+) rather than Li(+). The d(GGGA)(5) structure in the presence of monovalent ions is stabilized against thermal denaturation in the order Li(+) < Na(+) < K(+). 相似文献

This article reports vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) and electronic circular dichroism (ECD) spectroscopic studies in acetonitrile on the chiral Rh(2)(O-Phe-Cbz)(1)(OAc)(3) and Rh(2)(O-Phe-Ac)(1)(OAc)(3) complexes (abbreviated Rh(2)Z(1) and Rh(2)Ac(1) , respectively; Phe, L-phenylalanine; Cbz, benzyloxycarbonyl; Ac, acetyl) supported by theoretical calculations. The ECD spectra of the complexes depend on temperature that indicates the conformational mobility of the chiral ligands. Calculations of the VCD spectra were performed at ab initio (DFT) level of theory using Gaussian 03 [B3LYP functional combined with the LANL2DZ basis set for the dirhodium core and the 6-31G(d) basis set for other atoms]. The population-weighted sums of the computed VCD spectra of the conformers are in excellent agreement with the experimental VCD spectra. The combination of the VCD and ECD spectroscopic methods led us to the structural characterization of the complexes. 相似文献

Two couples of enantiomeric platinum(II) complexes: Pt(L1a)Cl ( 1a ), Pt(L1b)Cl ( 1b ) and Pt(L1a)(C ≡ C ? Ph) ( 2a ), Pt(L1b)(C ≡ C ? Ph) ( 2b ) (L1a = (+)‐1,3‐di‐(2‐(4,5‐pinene)pyridyl)benzene, L1b = (?)‐1,3‐di‐(2‐(4,5‐pinene)pyridyl)benzene) were synthesized and characterized. Their absolute configurations were determined by single crystal X‐ray diffraction and further verified by circular dichroism (CD) spectra (including electronic circular dichroism [ECD] and vibrational circular dichroism [VCD]). These complexes show interesting mechanoluminescence and/or vapoluminescence due to crystalline‐to‐amorphous transformation. The crystalline solids, grinding‐induced amorphous powders, and vapor‐induced amorphous powders of complexes 2a and 2b were comparatively investigated by solid‐state ECD and VCD spectra. The transformation from crystalline solids to amorphous powders was accompanied by significant variances of the spectral feature in both ECD and VCD spectra.

The primary purpose of this work was to demonstrate the suitability of circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy in stereochemical studies of α,β ‐unsaturated oximes, with particular emphasis on determination of E and Z geometry of the oxime double bond. As models for this study, O‐phenyl and O‐triphenylmethyl (trityl) oximes of 4‐hydroxy‐2‐methylcyclopent‐2‐en‐1‐one were selected. These model compounds differ in both absolute configuration at C4 carbon atom and E ‐Z configuration of the oxime double bond. The basic dichroic technique applied was electronic circular dichroism (ECD) assisted by quantum‐chemical calculations and vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) for selected cases. Such an approach enabled effective implementation of both goals. Thus, we were able to associate the signs of Cotton effects in the range of 190–240 nm with the absolute configuration at C4 and within 240–300 nm with the E ‐ or Z ‐geometry of the oxime double bond. Within this work, optical activity of the protecting trityl group was also studied towards formation of the propeller‐shaped conformations by using the same combined CD/DFT methodology. As shown, the helical structure of the trityl group has a considerable influence on the ECD spectra. However, the MPM and PMP conformers of the trityl group are in fact almost equally populated in the conformational equilibrium, making it impossible to distinguish them. On the other hand, rotamers of the hydroxyl group at C4 show a decisive impact on the VCD spectra in both phenoxy and trityl oximes. 相似文献

Vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectroscopy and simultaneous IR absorption measurements are applied to study the interaction of natural calf thymus DNA with Cu2+ ions at room temperature in a Cu2+ concentration range of 0-0.4M (a Cu2+/phosphate molar ratio [Cu]/[P] of 0-0.7). In some important instances, VCD provides more detailed insights than previous IR investigations whereas in several others it leads to the same interpretations. The Cu2+ ions bind to phosphate groups at a low metal concentration. Upon increasing the ion concentration, chelates are formed in which Cu2+ binds to the N7 of guanine (G) and a phosphate group. Detectable only by VCD, significant distortion of most guanine-cytosine (GC) base pairs occurs at a [Cu]/[P] ratio of 0.5 with only a minor affect on adenine-thymine (AT) base pairs, which favors a \"sandwich\" complex in which a Cu2+ ion is inserted between two adjacent guanines in a GpG sequence. The AT base pairs become significantly distorted when the metal concentration is increased to 0.7 [Cu]/[P]. A number of GC base pairs, which are possibly involved in sandwich complexes, remain stacked and paired even at 0.7 [Cu]/[P], preventing complete strand separation. The DNA secondary structure changes considerably from the standard B-form geometry at a [Cu]/[P] ratio of 0.4 and higher. A further transition to some intermediate conformation that is inconsistent with either the A- or Z-form or a completely denatured state is suggested in agreement with other works. In general, VCD proves to be a reliable indicator of the 3-dimensional structure of the DNA-metal ion complexes, which reveals structural details that cannot be deduced from the IR absorption spectra alone. 相似文献

In this study we show the outstanding agreement between simulation and experimental data concerning the efficient stabilization effect by NaCl of Z conformation. We demonstrate by circular dichroism (CD) experiments that Na+ not only is able to induce a B to Z form transition in a short (GC)3 alternated portion of a sequence having 17 basis, but also is the best stabilizer in comparison with other Z inducers used (spermine and NiCl2). This result was confirmed by free energy calculations. Chirality 27:773–778, 2015. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

Electronic and vibrational circular dichroism are often used to determine the secondary structure of proteins, because each secondary structure has a unique spectrum. Little is known about the vibrational circular dichroic spectroscopic features of the β‐hairpin. In this study, the VCD spectral features of a decapeptide, YYDPETGTWY (CLN025), which forms a stable β‐hairpin that is stabilized by intramolecular weakly polar interactions and hydrogen bonds were determined. Molecular dynamics simulations and ECD spectropolarimetry were used to confirm that CLN025 adopts a β‐hairpin in water, TFE, MeOH, and DMSO and to examine differences in the secondary structure, hydrogen bonds, and weakly polar interactions. CLN025 was synthesized by microwave‐assisted solid phase peptide synthesis with Nα‐Fmoc protected amino acids. The VCD spectra displayed a (?,+,?) pattern with bands at 1640 to 1656 cm?1, 1667 to 1687 cm?1, and 1679 to 1686 cm?1 formed by the overlap of a lower frequency negative couplet and a higher frequency positive couplet. A maximum IR absorbance was observed at 1647 to 1663 cm?1 with component bands at 1630 cm?1, 1646 cm?1, 1658 cm?1, and 1675 to 1680 cm?1 that are indicative of the β‐sheet, random meander, either random meander or loop and turn, respectively. These results are similar to the results of others, who examined the VCD spectra of β‐hairpins formed by DPro‐Xxx turns and indicated that observed pattern is typical of β‐hairpins. © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Model peptides based on -(Aib-Ala)(n)-, and (Aib)(n)-Leu-(Aib)(2) sequences, which have varying amounts of 3(10)-helical character, were studied by use of vibrational and electronic circular dichroism (VCD and ECD) and Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) absorption spectroscopies to test the correlation of spectral response and conformation. The data indicate that these peptides, starting from a length of about four to six residues, predominantly adopt a 3(10)-helical conformation at room temperature. The longest model peptides, depending on the series, may evidence some alpha-helical contribution to the spectra, while the shorter ones, with less than six residues, have much less order. The IR absorption spectra (as supported by theory) showed only small frequency changes between 3(10)- and alpha-helices. By contrast, solvent effects are a source of much bigger perturbations. The ECD results show that the intensity ratio for the approximately 222-nm to approximately 208-nm bands, while useful for distinguishing between these two helical types in some sequences, may have a narrower range of application than VCD. However, the VCD data presented here continue to support the proposed discrimination between alpha- and 3(10)-helices based on qualitative amide I and II bandshape differences. The present study shows the intensities of the 3(10)-helical amide I (peak-to-peak) to its amide II VCD to be of the same order and useful for discriminating them from alpha-helices, whose amide I dominates the amide II in intensity. This qualitative result is experimentally independent of the amount of alphaMe-substituted residues in the sequence. These experimental VCD results are consistent in detail with theoretical spectral simulations for Ac-(Ala)(8)-NH(2), Ac-(Aib-Ala)(4)-NH(2), and Ac-(Aib)(8)-NH(2) in 3(10)- and alpha-helical conformations. 相似文献

The increasing interest in peptidomimetics of biological relevance prompted us to synthesize a series of cyclic peptides comprising trans‐2‐aminocyclohexane carboxylic acid (Achc) or trans‐2‐aminocyclopentane carboxylic acid (Acpc). NMR experiments in combination with MD calculations were performed to investigate the three‐dimensional structure of the cyclic peptides. These data were compared to the conformational information obtained by electronic circular dichroism (ECD) and vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectroscopy. Experimental VCD spectra were compared to theoretical VCD spectra computed quantum chemically at B3LYP/6‐31G(d) density functional theory (DFT) level. The good agreement between the structural features derived from the VCD spectra and the NMR‐based structures underlines the applicability of VCD in studying the conformation of small cyclic peptides.

Parallel PNA:PNA duplexes were synthesized and conjugated with meso‐tris(pyridyl)phenylporphyrin carboxylic acid at the N‐terminus. The introduction of one porphyrin unit was shown to affect slightly the stability of the PNA:PNA parallel duplex, whereas the presence of two porphyrin units at the same end resulted in a dramatic increase of the melting temperature, accompanied by hysteresis between melting and cooling curves. The circular dichroism (CD) profile of the Soret band and fluorescence quenching strongly support the occurrence of a face‐to‐face interaction between the two porphyrin units. Introduction of a L‐lysine residue at the C‐terminal of one strand of the parallel duplex induced a left‐handed helical structure in the PNA:PNA duplex if the latter contains only one or no porphyrin moiety. The left‐handed helicity was revealed by nucleobase CD profile at 240–280 nm and by the induced‐CD observed in the presence of the DiSC2(5) cyanine dye at ~500–550 nm. Surprisingly, the presence of two porphyrin units led to the disappearance of the nucleobase CD signal and the absence of CD exciton coupling within the Soret band region. In addition, a dramatic decrease of induced CD of DiSC2(5) was observed. These results are in agreement with a model where the porphyrin–porphyrin interactions cause partial loss of chirality of the PNA:PNA parallel duplex, forcing it to adopt a ladder‐like conformation.

研究揭示,生物信息的形成,传递与DNA构象的多样性,特别是其中的左手螺旋Z-构象DNA（Z-DNA）相关.在机体DNA链中,普遍存在的特异序列结构d（C-G）n和d（G-C）n片段易形成Z-构象.但对d（G-C）n序列结构的寡聚体Oligo-d（G-C）n,（n小于8）能转换形成Z-DNA片段少见报道.为促进对Z-DNA尤其是其中的短片段Z-DNA与生物功能的相关性研究,我们对合成并纯化后的寡聚体Oligo-d（G-C）n,n分别为4,6,8,10, 及Oligo-d（C-G）6和多聚体poly-d（G-C）500-900进行Z-构象的形成和其构象转换的比较研究.研究结果发现：①d（GpCpGpCpGpCpGpCpGpCpGpC）是d（G-C）n序列结构中能转换形成Z-构象的最短片段（n＝6）.其转换成Z-构象能力有链长依赖性（poly d（G-C）500-900易于Oligo-d（G-C）6）;②Oligo-d（G-C）6的Z-构象形成能力因溶液中的介质性质不同而异.Co（NH3）3＋〉Mg2＋〉Na＋;C1O-4〉Cl-,因此要求盐溶液的浓度差异很大.③PH7.2,室温条件下,在MgCl2, NaClO4, NaCl溶液浓度分别由0 mol/L增至6.0 mol/L,Oligo-d（G-C）6的B、Z构象转换都出现：B-构象相对稳定期,B-、Z-构象转换跃迁期和Z-构象相对稳定期.每个阶段要求跨越的盐浓度变迁范围也因所用介质而异.当溶液中Oligo-d（G-C）6 B-构象、Z-构象各占50%（θ1/2）时,其盐浓度分别为1.72 mol/L（MgCl2）,2.88 mol/L（NaClO4）,3.85 mol/L（NaCl）.④Oligo-d（G-C）6的B-,Z-构象转换程度受盐浓度影响：当Oligo-d（G-C）6处于最适条件和不同盐溶液其浓度为θ（12）浓度时,温度由8 ℃→22 ℃,在MgCl2,NaClO4溶液中的Oligo-d（G-C）6形成Z-构象能力增加,当由22 ℃→60 ℃,MgCl2溶液中的Z-构象Oligo-d（G-C）6加速增加,而在NaClO4溶液中则是急速向B-型Oligo-d（G-C）6方向转换;温度变化对处于NaCl溶液中的Oligo-d（G-C）6B-、Z-构象相对平衡影响较小.⑤甲基化胞嘧啶即Oligo-d（G-mC）6或d（mC-G）6均增大Z-构象形成能力.⑥在4 mol/L MgCl2溶液中的Oligo-d（G-C）6或Oligo-d（C-G）6或poly d（G-C）500-900的UVab谱、UVcd谱均显示出非B-型或Z-型DNA的新谱型.并且有链长依赖性和因溶液浓度改变出现构象可逆性转变.提示在Oligo-d（G-C）6的构象转换过程中可能存在新构象＂X＂型,即BZX构象转换模式. 相似文献

Oligo(lactic acid) is an ester‐analogue of short oligoalanine sequence and adopts a rigid left‐handed helical structure. In this study, oligo(lactic acid) was incorporated into oligoalanine sequences and their conformations were studied by vibrational circular dichroism and electronic circular dichroism spectroscopy. The results suggested that oligo(lactic acid) moiety in these sequences maintains a left‐handed helix and increases the conformational propensity of the oligoalanine moiety to form a left‐handed polyproline type II‐like helix. The importance of the chirality of oligo(lactic acid) moiety for the oligoalanine conformation was also studied. The results obtained in this study should be useful in developing ester‐containing oligopeptides that function better than normal peptides. 相似文献

Two diastereoisomeric pairs of bis‐oxazolines, provided with a stereogenic center at carbon 4 and based on the 3,3′‐bithiophene atropisomeric scaffold, were synthesized and structurally characterized. They differ in the substituents at positions 2 and 5 of the thiophene rings, which are functionalized with methyl (1) or phenyl (2) groups, respectively. In vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectra, recorded in CCl4 solutions, it is possible to distinctly recognize the characteristic features of axial and central stereogenic elements. In tandem with Density Functional Theory (DFT) calculations, the absolute configuration (AC) of the diastereoisomers was safely established. In this case, VCD was shown to be superior to ECD (electronic circular dichroism) in the assignment of AC. The normal modes, evaluated from DFT calculations, show that the VCD signals in correspondence with the stereogenic axis of the bithiophene unit are different for 1 and 2. The VCD spectra of a molecular analog of 1, the (S)‐2,2′,5,5′‐tetramethyl‐4,4′‐bis‐(diphenylphosphino)‐3,3′‐bithiophene oxide (3), characterized by the same 3,3′‐bithiophene scaffold, but devoid of stereogenic centers, exhibits signals similar to those observed in the case of diastereoisomer (aS,R,R)‐1a, associated with almost identical normal modes.

A series of representative optically active derivatives of 4‐hydroxy‐5‐alkylcyclopent‐2‐en‐1‐one were prepared from the respective 2‐furyl methyl carbinols via the Piancatelli rearrangement followed by the enzymatic kinetic resolution of racemates. Applicability of chiroptical methods (experimental and calculated electronic circular dichroism [ECD] and vibrational circular dichroism [VCD] spectra) to determine the absolute configuration of both stereogenic centers in 4‐hydroxy‐5‐methylcyclopent‐2‐en‐1‐one was demonstrated. It was also demonstrated that the concurrent application of ECD and VCD spectroscopy can be used for the determination of the configuration of two stereogenic centers.

Ultraviolet (UV) and infrared (IR) absorption and vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectroscopy were used to study conformational transitions in the double-stranded poly(rA). poly(rU) and its components-single-stranded poly(rA) and poly(rU) in buffer solution (pH 6.5) with 0.1M Na+ and different Mg2+ and Cd2+ (10(-6) to 10(-2) M) concentrations. Transitions were induced by elevated temperature that changed from 10 up to 96 degrees C. IR absorption and VCD spectra in the base-stretching region were obtained for duplex, triplex, and single-stranded forms of poly(rA) . poly(rU) at [Mg2+],[Cd2+]/[P] = 0.3. For single-stranded polynucleotides, the kind of conformational transition (ordering --> disordering --> compaction, aggregation) is conditioned by the dominating type of Me2+-polymer complex that in turn depends on the ion concentration range. The phase diagram obtained for poly(rA) . poly(rU) has a triple point ([Cd2+] approximately 10(-4)M) at which the helix-coil (2 --> 1) transition is replaced with a disproportion transition 2AU --> A2U + poly(rA) (2 --> 3) and the subsequent destruction of the triple helix (3 --> 1). The 2 --> 1 transitions occur in the narrow temperature interval of 2 degrees -5 degrees . Unlike 2 --> 1 and 3 --> 1 melting, the disproportion 2 --> 3 transition is a slightly cooperative one and observed over a wide temperature range. At [Me2+] approximately 10(-3) M, the temperature interval of A2U stability is not less than 20 degrees C. In the case of Cd2+, it increases with the rise of ion concentration due to the decrease of T(m) (2-->3). The T(m) (3-->1) value is practically unchanged up to [Cd2+] approximately 10(-3)M. Differences between diagrams for Mg(2+) and Cd2+ result from the various kinds of ion binding to poly(rA).poly-(rU) and poly(rA). 相似文献

The optical spectroscopic characterization of γ‐turns in solution is uncertain and their distinction from β‐turns is often difficult. This work reports systematic ECD and vibrational circular dichroism (VCD) spectroscopic studies on γ‐turn model cyclic tetrapeptides cyclo(Ala‐β‐Ala‐Pro‐β‐Ala) ( 1 ), cyclo(Pro‐β‐Ala‐Pro‐β‐Ala) ( 2 ) and cyclo(Ala‐β‐Ala‐Ala‐β‐Ala) ( 3 ). Conformational analysis performed at the 6‐31G(d)/B3LYP level of theory using an adequate PCM solvent model predicted one predominant conformer for 1‐3 , featuring two inverse γ‐turns. The ECD spectra in ACN of 1 and 2 are characterized by a negative n→π* band near 230 nm and a positive π→π* band below 200 nm with a long wavelength shoulder. The ECD spectra in TFE of 1‐3 show similar spectra with blue‐shifted bands. The VCD spectra in ACN‐d3 of 1 and 2 show a +/?/+/? amide I sign pattern resulting from four uncoupled vibrations in the case of 1 and a sequence of two positive couplets in the case of 2 . A ?/+/+/? amide I VCD pattern was measured for 3 in TFE‐d2. All three peptides give a positive couplet or couplet‐like feature (+/?) in the amide II region. VCD spectroscopy, in agreement with theoretical calculations revealed that low frequency amide I vibrations (at ～1630 cm?1 or below) are indicative of a C7 H‐bonded inverse γ‐turns with Pro in position 2, while γ‐turns encompassing Ala absorb at higher frequency (above 1645 cm?1).

The salen‐type ligand prepared with (R,R) diphenylethan‐1,2‐diamine and salicylaldehyde provides stable and inert complexes KLnL2 upon simple reaction with lanthanide halides or pseudohalides LnX3 (Ln = Tb3+‐Lu3+; X = Cl? or TfO?) of its potassium salt. All the complexes were completely characterized through nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), electronic circular dichroism (ECD) in the UV and some (Er3+, Tm3+, Yb3+) also with Near‐IR ECD (NIR‐ECD) and luminescence (Tb3+, Tm3+). Careful analysis of the NMR shifts demonstrated that the complexes are isostructural in solution and afforded an accurate geometry. This was further confirmed by means of Density Functional Theory (DFT) optimization of the Lu3+ complex, and by comparing the ligand‐centered experimental and time‐dependent TD‐DFT computed UV‐ECD spectra. As final validation, we used the NIR‐ECD spectrum of the Yb3+ derivative calculated by means of Richardson's equations. The excellent match between calculated and experimental ECD spectra confirm the quality of the NMR structure. Chirality 27:857–863, 2015. © 2015 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

We show that three designed cyclic d ,l ‐peptides are β‐helical in TFE—a solvent in which the archetypal β‐helical peptide, gA, is unstructured. This result represents an advance in the field of β‐helical peptide foldamers and a step toward achieving β‐helical structure under a broad range of solvent conditions. We synthesized two of the three peptides examined using an improved variant of our original CBC strategy. Here, we began with a commercially available PEG–PS composite resin prefunctionalized with the alkanesulfonamide ‘SCL’ linker and preloaded with glycine. Our new conditions avoided C‐terminal epimerization during the CBC step and simplified purification. In addition, we present results to define the scope and limitations of our CBC strategy. These methods and observations will prove useful in designing additional cyclic β‐helical peptides for applications ranging from transmembrane ion channels to ligands for macromolecular targets.
