The crystal structure of the tripeptide t-Boc-L-Pro-D-Ala-D-Ala-NHCH3, monohydrate, (C17H30N4O5.H2O, molecular weight = 404.44) has been determined by single crystal X-ray diffraction. The crystals are monoclinic, space group P2(1), a = 9.2585(4), b = 9.3541(5), c = 12.4529(4)A, beta = 96.449(3) degrees, Z = 2. The peptide units are in the trans and the tBoc-Pro bond in the cis orientation. The first and third peptide units show significant deviations from planarity (delta omega = 5.2 degrees and delta omega = 3.7 degrees, respectively). The backbone torsion angles are: phi 1 = -60 degrees, psi 1 = 143.3 degrees, omega 1 = -174.8 degrees, phi 2 = 148.4 degrees, psi 2 = -143.1 degrees, omega 2 = -179.7 degrees, phi 3 = 151.4 degrees, psi 3 = -151.9 degrees, omega 3 = -176.3 degrees. The pyrrolidine ring of the proline residue adopts the C2-C gamma conformation. The molecular packing gives rise to an antiparallel beta-sheet structure formed of dimeric repeating units of the peptide. The surface of the dimeric beta-sheet is hydrophobic. Water molecules are found systematically at the edges of the sheets interacting with the urethane oxygen and terminal amino groups. Surface catalysis of an L-Ala to D-Ala epimerization process by water molecules adsorbed on to an incipient beta-sheet is suggested as a mechanism whereby crystals of the title peptide were obtained from a solution of tBoc-Pro-D-Ala-Ala-NHCH3. 相似文献

The synthetic peptide Gly-L-Ala-L-Val (C10H19N3O4.3H2O; GAV) crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P21, with a = 8.052(2), b = 6.032(2), c = 15.779(7) A, beta = 98.520(1) degree, V = 757.8 A3, Dx = 1.312 g cm-3, and Z = 2. The peptide Gly-L-Ala-L-Leu (C11H21N3O4.3H2O; GAL) crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group P212121, with a = 6.024(1), b = 8.171(1), c = 32.791(1) A, V = 1614 A3, Dx = 1.289 g cm-3, and Z = 4. Their crystal structures were solved by direct methods using the program SHELXS-86, and refined to an R index of 0.05 for 1489 reflections for GAV and to an R index of 0.05 for 1563 reflections for GAL. The tripeptides exist as a zwitterion in the crystal and assume a near alpha-helical backbone conformation with the following torsion angles: psi 1 = -150.7 degrees; phi 2, psi 2 = -68.7 degrees, -38.1 degrees; phi 3, psi 32 = -74.8 degrees, -44.9 degrees, 135.9 degrees for GAV; psi 1 = -150.3 degrees; phi 2, psi 2 = -67.7 degrees, -38.9 degrees; phi 3, psi 31, psi 32 = -72.2 degrees, -45.3 degrees, 137.5 degrees for GAL. Both the peptide units in both of the tripeptides show significant deviation from planarity [omega 1 = -171.3(6) degrees and omega 2 = -172.0(6) degrees for GAV; omega 1 = -171.9(5) degrees and omega 2 = -173.2(6) degrees for GAL]. The side-chain conformational angles chi 21 and chi 22 are -61.7(5) degrees and 175.7(5) degrees, respectively, for valine, and the side-chain conformations chi 12 and chi 23's are -68.5(5) degrees and (-78.4(6) degrees, 159.10(5) degrees) respectively, for leucine. Each of the tripeptide molecule is held in a near helical conformation by a water molecule that bridges the NH3+ and COO- groups, and acts as the fourth residue needed to complete the turn by forming two hydrogen bonds. Two other water molecules form intermolecular hydrogen bonds in stabilizing the helical structure so that the end result is a column of molecules that looks like an alpha-helix. 相似文献

All the peptide bonds in cyclic(Gly-L-Pro-D-Phe-Gly-L-Ala) are in the trans conformation; however, the peptide bond C'5-N1 is twisted by 19 degrees from planarity (omega 5 = -161 degrees). A Type II beta-turn encompasses the L-Pro-D-Phe residues. Carbonyl oxygens O2, O4 and O5 are directed to the same side of the average plane through the backbone ring and they form hydrogen bonds with N3, N5 and N1, respectively, in adjacent molecules in a stacked column where the adjacent molecules are related by one translational unit. The conformation of the backbone is different from that established in other molecules with the DLDDL chirality sequence. The P21 cell contains two molecules of C21H26N5O5 with a = 4.836(2) A, b = 18.346(8) A, c = 12.464(5) A and beta = 100.05(4) degrees. The R factor for 1382 data with [F0[ greater than 1 sigma is 7.0%. 相似文献

The tripeptide, L-prolyl-glycyl-glycine, crystallizes in the trigonal space group P3(2), with a = b = 8.682(2) A, c = 12.008(2) and Z = 3. The structure was solved by direct methods and refined to an R-value of 0.07 for 727 reflections (I greater than 1.0 sigma). The molecule exists as a zwitterion in the crystal. The peptide units are trans and show significant deviations from planarity (omega 1 = 169.7 degrees, omega 2 = -170.1 degrees). The peptide backbone adopts a left-handed helical conformation similar to that of polyglycine II and polyproline II. 相似文献

The peptide N-Ac-dehydro-Phe-L-Val-L-Val-OCH3 (C22H31N3O5) was synthesized by the usual workup procedure and finally by coupling the N-Ac-dehydro-Phe-L-Val-OH to valine methyl ester. It was crystallized from its solution in acetonitrile-water mixture at 4 degrees C. The crystals belong to the space group P1 with a = 8.900(3) A, b = 11.135(2) A, c = 12.918(2) A, alpha = 90.36(1) degrees, beta = 110.14(3) 14(3) degrees, V = 1207.7(6) A, 3Z = 2, dm = 1.156(5) Mgm-3, dc = 1.148(5) Mgm-3. The structure was determined by direct methods using SHELXS86. The structure was refined by full-matrix least-squares procedure to an R value of 0.077 for 3916 observed reflections. The molecular dimensions and conformations of the two crystallographically independent molecules are in good agreement. In the dehydro residues, the average C alpha-C beta distance is 1.31(2) A whereas the bond angle C alpha-C beta-C gamma is 132(1) degrees. The average backbone torsion angles are omega 0 = 169(1) degrees, phi 1 = -40(1) degree, psi 1 = -50(1) degree, omega 1 = -177(1) degree, phi 2 = 54(1) degree, psi 2 = 46(1) degree, omega 2 = -174(1) degree, phi 3 = 103(1) degree, psi T3 = -139(1) degree, and theta T3 = -176(1) degree. The acetyl group is in the trans conformation, while the backbone adopts a right-handed and left-handed helical conformation alternatingly.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The crystal structure of a tripeptide, L-phenylalanyl-glycyl-glycine (C13H17N3O4), molecular weight = 279.3, has been determined. The crystals are orthorhombic, space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), with a = 5.462(1) A, b = 15.285(5), c = 16.056(4), Z = 4, and P (calc) = 1.384 g.cm-3. The final R-index is 0.052 for 866 reflections with sin theta/lambda less than or equal to 0.55 A-1 and I greater than 1 sigma. The molecule exists as a zwitterion, with the N-terminus protonated and the C-terminus in an ionized form. Both the peptide units are in the trans configuration and planar, though one of them shows significant deviations from planarity ([delta w[ = 5.1 degrees). The peptide backbone is folded, with the torsion angles of: psi 1 = 116.2(5) degrees, omega 1 = 178.8(4), phi 2 = -89.7(5). psi 2 = -28.9(6), omega 2 = -174.9(4), phi 3 = 134.9(5), psi 31 = 7.8(6), psi 32 = -172.6(4). The terminal glycine adopts a "D-residue" conformation. For the sidechain of phenylalanine, chi 1 = 175.5(4), chi 2 = -127.0(6). 相似文献

Role of water molecules in the crystal structure of gly-L-ala-L-phe: A possible sequence preference for nucleation of α-helix? 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The synthetic peptide Gly-L-Ala-L-Phe (C14H19N3O4.2H2O; GAF) crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2I1), with a = 5.879(1), b = 7.966(1), c = 17.754(2) A, beta = 95.14(2) degrees, Dx = 1.321 g cm-3, and Z = 2. The crystal structure was solved by direct methods using the program SHELXS-86 and refined to an R value of 0.031 for 1425 reflections (greater than 3 sigma). The tripeptide exists as a zwitterion in the crystal and assumes a near alpha-helical backbone conformation with the following torsion angles: psi 1 = -147.8 degrees; phi 2, psi 2 = -71.2 degrees, 33.4 degrees; phi 3, psi 3 = -78.3 degrees, -43.3 degrees. In this structure, one water molecule bridges the COO- and NH3+ terminii to complete a turn of an alpha-helix and another water molecule participates in head-to-tail intermolecular hydrogen bonding, so that the end result is a column of molecules that looks like an alpha-helix. Thus, the two water molecules of crystallization play a major role in stabilizing the near alpha-helical conformation of each tripeptide molecule and in elongating the helix throughout the crystal. An analysis of all protein sequences around regions containing a GAF fragment by Chou-Fasman's secondary structure prediction method showed that those regions are likely to assume an alpha-helical conformation with twice the probability they are likely to adopt a beta-sheet conformation. It is conceivable that a GAF fragment may be a good part of the nucleation site for forming alpha-helical fragments in a polypeptide, with the aqueous medium playing a crucial role in maintaining such transient species. 相似文献

Synthesis, crystal structure, and molecular conformation of peptide N-Boc-L-Pro-dehydro-Phe-L-Gly-OH
The peptide N-Boc-L-Pro-dehydro-Phe-L-Gly-OH was synthesized by the usual workup procedure and finally coupling the N-Boc-L-Pro-dehydro-Phe to glycine. The peptide crystallizes in monoclinic space group P2(1) with a = 8.951(4) A, b = 5.677(6) A, c = 21.192(11) A, beta = 96.97(4) degrees, V = 1069(1) A3, Z = 2, dm = 1.295(5) Mgm-3, and dc = 1.297(4) Mgm-3. The structure was determined by direct methods using SHELXS86. The structure was refined by the block-diagonal least-squares procedure to an R value of 0.074 for 1002 observed reflections. The C alpha 2-C beta 2 distance of 1.33(2) A is an appropriate double bond length. The angle C alpha 2-C beta 2-C gamma 2 is 133(1) degrees. The peptide backbone torsion angles are theta 1 = -167(1) degrees, omega 0 = 179(1) degrees, phi 1 = -48(1) degrees, psi 1 = 137(1) degrees, omega 1 = 175(1) degrees, phi 2 = 65(2) degrees, psi 2 = 15(2) degrees, omega 2 = -179(1) degrees, and phi 3 = -166(1) degrees. These values show that the Boc group has a trans-trans conformation while the peptide backbone adopts a beta-turn II conformation, which is stabilized by an intramolecular hydrogen bond of length of 3.05(1) A. The structures of dehydro-Phe containing peptides suggest that the dehydro-Phe promotes the beta-turn II conformation. The five-membered pyrrolidine ring of the Pro residue adopts an ideal C gamma-exo conformation with torsion angles chi 1(1) = -24(1) degrees, chi 2(1) = 34(1) degrees, chi 3(1) = -30(1) degrees, chi 4(1) = 15(1) degrees, and theta 0(1) = 6(1) degrees. The side-chain torsion angles in dehydro-Phe are chi 1(2) = -1(2) degrees, chi 2,1(2) = -176(1) degrees, and chi 2,2(2) = 8(2) degrees. The plane of C alpha 2-C beta 2-C gamma 2 is rotated with respect to the plane of the phenyl ring at 7(1) degrees, which indicates that the atoms of the side chain of dehydro-Phe are essentially coplanar. The molecules form a 2(1) screw axis related hydrogen-bonded rows along the b axis. 相似文献

Crystals of L-leucylglycylglycylglycine, LGGG (C12H22N4O5), grown from an ethanol-water solution, are orthorhombic, space groups P2(1)2(1)2(1), with unit cell dimensions (at 22 +/- 3 degrees) a = 9.337(1), b = 10.995(1), c = 15.235(1)A, v = 1563.4 A3, Z = 4 with a density of Dobs = 1.29 g.cm-3 and Dcalc = 1.279 g.cm-3. The crystal structure was solved by the application of direct methods and refined to an R value of 0.029 for 1018 reflections with I greater than or equal to 2 sigma. The molecule exists as a zwitterion in the crystal. The trans peptide backbone takes up a folded conformation at the middle glycylglycyl link accompanied by a significant nonplanarity up to delta omega of 8 degrees at the middle peptide and is relatively more extended at the two ends. The molecules are linked together intermolecularly in an infinite sequence of head to tail 1-4' hydrogen bonds, as is typical of charged peptides. It is interesting to note that while glycylglycylglycine takes up an extended beta-sheet conformation, addition of Leu to the N-terminal results in a bent conformation. 相似文献

The peptide N-Ac-dehydro-Phe-L-Val-OH (C16H20N2O4) was synthesized by the usual workup procedure. The peptide crystallizes from its solution in acetonitrile at 4 degrees in hexagonal space group P6(5) with a = b = 11.874(2)A, c = 21.856(9) A, V = 2668(1) A3, Z = 6, dm = 1.151(3) g cm-3, dc = 1.136(4) g cm-3, CuK alpha = 1.5418 A, mu = 0.641 mm-1, F(000) = 972, T = 293 K. The structure was solved by direct methods and refined by least-squares procedure to an R value of 0.074 for 1922 observed reflections. In the dehydro-residue, the C1 alpha-C1 beta distance is 1.35(1) A while the bond angle C1 alpha-C1 beta-C1 gamma is 131.2(9) degrees. The backbone torsion angles are: omega 0 = 172(1) degrees, phi 1 = -60(2) degrees, psi 1 = -31(2) degrees, omega 1 = -179(1) degrees, phi 2 = 59(2) degrees. These values suggest that the peptide tends to adopt an alternating right-handed and left-handed helical conformation. The side chain torsion angles are: chi 1(1) = -6(2) degrees, chi 1(2.1) = -1(2) degrees, chi 1(2.2) = -178(2) degrees, chi 2(1.1) = 63(2) degrees and chi 2(1.2) = -173(1) degrees. These values show that the side chain of dehydro-Phe is planar whereas the valyl side chain adopts a sterically most preferred conformation. The molecules, linked by intermolecular hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces, are arranged in helices along the c-axis. The helices are held side-by-side by van der Waals contacts. 相似文献

The peptide N-Boc-L-Gly-dehydro-Phe-NHCH3 was synthesized by the combination of N-Boc-L-Gly-dehydro-Phe azlactone and methylamine. The peptide crystallizes in orthorhombic space group P2(1)2(1)2(1) with a = 5.679(2) A, b = 16.423(9) A, c = 19.198(10) A, V = 1791(2) A3, Z = 4, dm = 1.212(5) Mg m-3, dc = 1.237(1) Mg m-3. The structure was determined by direct methods using SHELXS 86. The structure was refined by full-matrix least squares procedure to an R value of 0.049 for 1509 observed reflections. The molecular dimensions are, in general, in good agreement with the standard values. The bond angle C alpha-C beta-C gamma in the dehydro-Phe residue is 133.6(5) degrees. The peptide backbone torsion angles are theta 1 = -171.4(4) degrees, omega 0 = 178.2(4) degrees, phi 1 = -57.2(6) degrees, psi 1 = 141.2(4) degrees, omega 1 = -174.4(4) degrees, phi 2 = 71.5(6) degrees, psi 2 = 7.2(6) degrees, and omega 2 = -179.8(5) degrees. These values show that the backbone adopts the beta-bend type II conformation. The Boc group has a trans-trans conformation. The side-chain torsion angles in dehydro-Phe are chi 2 = 1.6(9) degrees, chi 2(2, 1) = 0.5(9) degrees, and chi 2(2, 2) = 179.8(6) degrees. The plane of C2 alpha-C2 beta-C2 gamma is rotated with respect to the plane of the phenyl ring at 0.5(6) degrees, which indicates that the atoms of the side chain of the dehydro-Phe residue are essentially coplanar.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

By applying the method of amino-acyl incorporation to sulfonamido peptides, cyclo(-MeTau-Phe-DPro-) 3 has been synthesized in high yield starting from Z-MeTau-Phe-Pro-OH. The crystal structure and the molecular conformation of 3 have been determined. Crystals are orthorhombic, s.g. P2(1)2(1)2(1), with a = 5.454, b = 13.486, c = 24.025 A. The structure has been solved by direct methods and refined to R = 0.039 for 1974 reflections with I greater than 1.5 sigma (I). The 10-measured cyclopeptide adopts a backbone conformation in the crystals characterized by Phe-DPro and DPro-MeTau peptide bonds in trans and cis conformation, respectively. Both the peptide bonds deviate significantly from planarity and the corresponding [delta omega[ values are ca. 12 degrees. The sulfonamide SO2NH junction adopts a cisoidal conformation with a C alpha 1-S1-N2-C alpha 2 torsion angle of 70.8 degrees. 13C n.m.r. data show that the trans geometry at the Phe-DPro junction found in the crystals is retained in DMSO solution. The 10-membered ring of 3 is characterized by a pseudo mirror-plane passing through the Phe nitrogen and the DPro carbonylic carbon. The DPro ring adopts a half-chair conformation. The Phe side chain conformation corresponds to the statistically most favored g- rotamer (chi 1 = -68.6 degrees). The crystal packing is characterized by a weak intermolecular hydrogen bond between NH group and the MeTau O1' oxygen. 相似文献

The structure of a dihydrated form of glycyl-L-tyrosyl-L-alanine (GYA) has been determined as part of a series of peptide structural investigations and development of microscale vapor diffusion experiments for peptide crystal growth. Crystals were grown by the hanging-drop method against sodium acetate. The tripeptide is a zwitterion in the crystal, adopting an extended conformation through glycine, a nearly perpendicular bend at tyrosine and a reverse turn for the C-terminal carboxylate. Principal backbone torsion angles are psi 1 175(1) degrees, omega 2 173(1) degrees, phi 2 -119(1) degrees, psi 2 120(1) degrees, omega 3 172(1) degrees, phi 3 -73(1) degrees, psi 31 -9(1) degrees, psi 32 171(1) degrees. The tyrosyl side chain adopts an unusual orientation (chi 1/2 = -86(1) degrees). The relationship of the GYA.2H2O structure to GYA sequences in proteins is examined, particularly as regards its helix-forming potential. Crystal data: C14H19N3O4.2H2O, M(r) = 345.36, orthorhombic, P2(1)2(1)2(1), a = 4.810 (4), b = 11.400(7), c = 30.162(23)A, V = 1653.8(24)A-3, Z = 4, Dx = 1.387 Mgm-3, lambda(CuK- alpha) = 1.540 A, mu = 9.053 mm-1, F(000) = 736, T = 199 K, R = 0.041 for 1458 observations with I greater than or equal to 3 sigma(I). 相似文献

It is noteworthy that the dehydro-Ala residue adopts an extended conformation that is different than those observed in dehydro-Phe, dehydro-Leu, and dehydro-Abu. The peptide N-Boc-L-Phe-dehydro-Ala-OCH3 (C18H24N2O5) was synthesized by the usual workup procedure and finally by converting N-Boc-L-Phe-L-Ser-OCH3 to N-Boc-L-Phe-dehydro-Ala- OCH3. It was crystallized from its solution in a methanol-water mixture at room temperature. The crystals belong to the monoclonic space group P2(1), with a = 9.577(1) A, b = 5.195(3) A, c = 19.563(3) A, beta = 94.67(5) degrees, V = 970.1(6) A3, Z = 2, dm = 1.201(5) Mg m-3, dc = 1.197(5) Mg m-3. The structure was determined using direct method procedures. It was refined by a full-matrix least-squares procedure to an R value of 0.048 for 1370 observed reflections. The C2 alpha-C2 beta distance is 1.327(8) A, while the bond angles N2-C2 alpha-C2' and C1'-N2-C2 alpha are 109.8(5) degrees and 127.8(5) degrees, respectively. The backbone adopts a nonspecific conformation with dehydro-Ala in a fully extended conformation with the following torsion angles: theta 1 = 175.2(4) degrees, omega 0 = 170.2(4) degrees, phi 1 = 135.8(5) degrees, psi 1 = -22.6(6) degrees, omega 1 = 168.5(5) degrees, phi 2 = -170.3(5) degrees, psi 2T = -178.6(5) degrees, theta T = 178.4(7) degrees. The rigid planar and trans conformation of dehydro-Ala forces Phe to adopt a strained conformation. The Boc group has a trans-trans conformation.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

The dipeptide, (DL)-alanyl-(DL)-norvaline, crystallizes in the monoclinic space group P2(1)/c, with a = 12.559(2)A, b = 5.265(1), c = 16.003(3), beta = 103.53(2) degrees, Z = 4. The structure was solved by direct methods and refined to an R-value of 0.054 for 871 reflections with I greater than 2 sigma. The molecule exists as a zwitterion in the crystal. The peptide unit is trans and shows significant deviations from planarity (delta omega = 12.4 degrees). The peptide backbone adopts an extended conformation. The unit cell contains D-Ala-L-norval and its enantiomer. The molecular conformation and packing features show a striking resemblance to those for D-Ala-L-Met (1), and leads to the speculation that norvaline might act as an analog of methionine. 相似文献

The peptide N-Boc-L-Phe-dehydro-Leu-L-Val-OCH3 was synthesized by the usual workup procedure and finally by coupling the N-Boc-L-Phe-dehydro-Leu-OH to valine methyl ester. It was crystallized from its solution in methanol-water mixture at 4 degrees C. The crystals belong to the triclinic space group P1 with a = 5.972(5) A, b = 9.455(6) A, c = 13.101(6) A, alpha = 103.00(4) degrees, beta = 97.14(5) degrees, gamma = 102.86(5) degrees, V = 690.8(8) A, Z = 1, dm = 1.179(5) Mg m-3 and dc = 1.177(5) Mg m-3. The structure was determined by direct methods using SHELXS86. It was refined by block-diagonal least-squares procedure to an R value of 0.060 for 1674 observed reflections. The C alpha 2-C beta 2 distance of 1.323(9) A in dehydro-Leu is an appropriate double bond length. The bond angle C alpha-C beta-C gamma in the dehydro-Leu residue is 129.4(8) degrees. The peptide backbone torsion angles are theta 1 = -168.6(6) degrees, omega 0 = 170.0(6) degrees, phi 1 = -44.5(9) degrees, psi 1 = 134.5(6) degrees, omega 1 = 177.3(6) degrees, phi 2 = 54.5(9) degrees, psi 2 = 31.1(10) degrees, omega 2 = 171.7(6) degrees, phi 3 = 51.9(8) degrees, psi T3 = 139.0(6) degrees, theta T = -175.7(6) degrees. These values show that the backbone adopts a beta-turn II conformation. As a result of beta-turn, an intramolecular hydrogen bond is formed between the oxygen of the ith residue and NH of the (i + 3)th residue at a distance of 3.134(6) A.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Crystals of N-formyl-L-alanyl-L-aspartic acid (C8H11N2O6) grown from aqueous methanol solution are orthorhombic, space group, P2(1)2(1)2(1) with cell parameters at 294K of a = 13.619(2), b = 8.567(2), c = 9.583(3)A, V = 1118.1A3, M.W. = 232.2, Z = 4, Dm = 1.38 g/cm3 and Dx = 1.378 g/cm3. The crystal structure was solved by the application of direct methods and refined to an R value of 0.075 for 1244 reflections with I greater than or equal to 3 sigma collected on a CAD-4 diffractometer. The structure contains two short intermolecular hydrogen bonds: (i) between the C-terminal carboxyl OH and the N-acyl oxygen (2.624(3)A), a characteristic feature found in many N-acyl peptides and (ii) between the aspartic carboxyl OH. and the peptide oxygen OP1 (2.623(3)A). The peptide is nonplanar (omega = 165.5(6) degrees). The molecule takes up a folded conformation in contrast to N-formyl peptides which form extended beta-sheets; the values of phi 1, psi 1, phi 2, psi 2(1), and psi 2(2) are, respectively -65.7(6), 152.0(5), -107.2(5), 30.9(5), and -150.3(6). The aspartic acid side chain conformation is g- with chi 1 = 73.1(5). The formyl group, as expected, is transplanar [OF-CF-N1-CA1 = -4.0(8) degrees]. The presence of the short O-H ... O hydrogen bond emerges as a structural feature common to this peptide and several other N-formyl peptides. There are no C-H ... O hydrogen bonds in this structure. 相似文献

The chemical synthesis and X-ray crystal structure analysis of a model peptide incorporating a conformationally flexible beta-Ala residue: Boc-beta-Ala-Pda, 1 (C23H46N2O3: molecular weight = 398.62) have been described. The peptide crystallized in the crystal system triclinic with space group P21: a = 5.116(3) A, b = 5.6770(10) A, c = 21.744(5) A; alpha = 87.45 degrees, beta = 86.87 degrees, gamma = 90.0 degrees; Z = 1. An attractive feature of the crystal molecular structure of 1 is the induction of a reasonably extended backbone conformation of the beta-Ala moiety, i.e. the torsion angles phi approximately -115 degrees, mu approximately 173 degrees and psi approximately 122 degrees, correspond to skew-, trans and skew+ conformation, respectively, by an unbranched hydrophobic alkyl chain, Pda, which prefers an all-anti orientation (theta1 approximately -153 degrees, theta2 approximately ellipsis theta14 approximately +/-178 degrees ). The observation is remarkable because, systematic conformational investigations of short linear beta-Ala peptides of the type Boc-beta-Ala-Xaa-OCH3 (Xaa = Aib or Acc6) have shown that the chemical and stereochemical characters of the neighboring moieties may be critical in dictating the overall folded and/or unfolded conformational features of the beta-Ala residue. The overall conformation of 1 is typical of a 'bar'. It appears convincing that, in addition to a number of hydrophobic contacts between the parallel arranged molecules, an array of conventional N-HellipsisO=C intermolecular H-bonding interactions stabilize the crystal molecular structure. Moreover, the resulting 14-membered pseudo-ring motif, generated by the amide-amide interactions between the adjacent molecules, is completely devoid of nonconventional C-HellipsisO interaction. The potentials of the conformational adaptation of the beta-Ala residue, to influence and stabilize different structural characteristics have been highlighted. 相似文献
