The binding of mithramycin A to the d(A1T2G3C4A5T6) duplex was investigated by 1H NMR and found to be similar to that of its analogue chromomycin A3. In the presence of Mg2+, mithramycin binds strongly to d(ATGCAT)2. On the basis of the two-dimensional NOESY spectrum, the complex formed possesses C2 symmetry at a stoichiometry of two drugs per duplex (2:1) and is in slow chemical exchange on the NMR time scale. NOESY experiments reveal contacts from the E-pyranose of mithramycin to the terminal and nonterminal adenine H2 proton of DNA and from the drug hydroxyl proton to both G3NH2 protons, C4H1' proton, and A5H1' proton. These data place the drug chromophore and E pyranose on the minor groove side of d(ATGCAT)2. NOE contacts from the A-, B-, C-, and D-pyranoses of mithramycin to several deoxyribose protons suggest that the A- and B-rings are oriented along the sugar-phosphate backbone of G3-C4, while the C- and D-rings are located along the sugar-phosphate backbone of A5-T6. These drug-DNA contacts are very similar to those found for chromomycin binding to d(ATGCAT)2. Unlike chromomycin, the NOESY spectrum of mithramycin at the molar ratio of one drug per duplex reveals several chemical exchange cross-peaks corresponding to the drug-free and drug-bound proton resonances. From the intensity of these cross-peaks and the corresponding diagonal peaks, the off-rate constant was estimated to be 0.4 s-1. These data suggest that the exchange rate of mithramycin binding to d(ATGCAT)2 is faster than that of chromomycin.  相似文献

Equilibrium systems containing intercalation complexes formed between the novel anthracycline drug, 3-fluoro-4-demethoxydaunomycin (3FD), and the hexanucleotide duplex d(CTGCAG)2 have been studied by 19F-NMR spectroscopy. Solutions containing a 1:1 molar ratio of 3FD/d(CTGCAG)2 gave four 19F signals which have been assigned to each of four possible intercalation isomers for the 1:1 3FD.d(CTGCAG)2 complex, which we denote by [d(CTGCAG)2][3FD]; these were where 3FD bound between the 5'-CT-3', 5'-TG-3', 5'-GC-3' or 5'-CA-3' base sequences, with the drug sugar moiety lying in the minor groove and pointed in the 3' direction in each case. Changes in temperature and NaCl concentration affecting the equilibrium distribution of these isomers were studied and indicated that no overriding binding site preference prevailed under standard biochemical conditions. Formation of some of the 2:1 3FD.d(CTGCAG)2 complex occurred when a solution of [d(CTGCAG)2][3FD] was exposed to excess 3FD; however, this complex was unstable to gel filtration and no co-operative binding of the second 3FD molecule was observed.  相似文献

Resonance assignments of nonexchangeable base and sugar protons have been obtained in double-helical d-ACATCGATGT by using two-dimensional correlated spectroscopy (COSY) and nuclear Overhauser enhancement spectroscopy (NOESY). The exchangeable imino protons have been assigned on the basis of their chemical shifts. The characteristic phase-sensitive multiplet patterns of the intrasugar cross-peaks in the omega 1-scaled COSY spectrum have been used to estimate several scalar coupling constants (J). The information on the J values combined with the intranucleotide COSY cross-peak intensities has been used to identify sugar puckers of individual nucleotide units. In most cases, the deoxyribofuranose rings are found to adopt a conformation close to O4'-endo. Spin diffusion has been monitored from the buildup of the normalized volumes of NOE cross-peaks in NOESY spectra as a function of mixing time. A set of 52 intranucleotide and internucleotide proton-proton distances have been estimated by using low mixing time NOESY spectra (tau m = 40 and 80 ms). The estimated intrasugar proton-proton distances rule out possibilities of existence of a fast equilibrium between C2'-endo and C3'-endo conformations. Intranucleotide proton-proton distances combined with the knowledge of sugar puckers have been used to fix the glycosidic bond torsion angle (chi). For this purpose, simulated distance contours depicting the dependence of intranucleotide proton-proton distances on pseudorotational phase angle (P) and glycosidic bond torsion angle (chi) have been used. Further, the proton homonuclear (J, delta) spectrum has been used to monitor the 31P-1H heteronuclear couplings, which are preserved in the omega 2 projection.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

Oligodeoxynucleotides are reversibly deuteriated at the purine C8 and cytosine C5 positions with deuterioammonium bisulfite at pD 7.8. The exchange reaction is complete after 48 h at 65 degrees C. When an oligomer deuteriated under these conditions is analyzed by 1H nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, the purine H8 and cytosine H5 proton signals are selectively removed from the spectrum. A non-self-complementary oligodeoxynucleotide that has been deuteriated in this manner may be annealed with its complement and the resulting heteroduplex analyzed by two-dimensional nuclear Overhauser enhancement (NOESY) spectroscopy. NOE cross-peaks arising from pyrimidine H6-deoxyribose H1' dipolar interactions in both strands are observed, but purine H8-deoxyribose H1' and purine H8-deoxyribose H2',H2" dipolar interactions are only observed for the nondeuteriated strand. The intense cytosine H5-H6 cross-peaks are also removed from the spectrum of the deuteriated strand, which further simplifies interpretation since these strong cross-peaks often interfere with less intense NOE cross-peaks arising from dipolar coupling between purine H8 or pyrimidine H6 and deoxyribose anomeric protons. The resulting spectral simplification allows unambiguous assignments to be made on NOEs that otherwise may be difficult to distinguish. The deuteration procedure is demonstrated with the sequence d(CGTTATAATGCG).d(CGCATTATAACG), which has previously been assigned by traditional NOESY methods [Wemmer, D. E., Chou, S.-H., Hare, D. R., & Reid, B. R. (1984) Biochemistry 23, 2262-2268]. Although the assignment of this dodecadeoxynucleotide may be completed without deuteriation, several NOEs must be assigned indirectly because of degeneracies in the chemical shift of the purine H8 protons.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

In this study two-dimensional NMR techniques (COSY and NOESY) have been used in conjunction with one-dimensional NMR results to complete the assignment of the proton NMR spectrum of the double-stranded DNA decamer, d(ATATCGATAT)2, and to obtain qualitative information about numerous interproton distances in this molecule and some limited information about conformational dynamics. COSY and NOESY measurements have been combined to systematically assign many of the resonances from the H1' and H2',2" sugar protons to specific nucleotides in the double helix. This method relies on the fact that sugar protons within a specific nucleotide are scalar coupled and that base protons (AH8, GH8, TH6, and CH6) in right-handed helices can interact simultaneously with their own H2',2" sugar protons and those of the adjacent (5'-3') nucleotide attached to its 5' side (i.e., XpA not ApX). A COSY experiment is used to identify sugar resonances within a residue whereas the NOESY experiment allows the neighboring sugar to be connected (linked). The CH5 and CH6 resonances in the spectrum can immediately be identified by the COSY experiment. The methyl protons of thymine residues exhibit strong through-space interbase interactions both with their own TH6 proton and with AH8 proton on the adjacent (5'-3') adenine residue. These interactions are used both to make assignments of the spectra and to establish that the thymine methyl groups are in close proximity to the AH8 protons of adjacent adenine residues [Feigon, J., Wright, J. M., Leupin, W., Denny, W. A., & Kearns, D. R. (1982) J. Am. Chem. Soc. 104, 5540].(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

One-dimensional and two-dimensional (2D) nmr experiments were carried out on an oligonucleotide duplex that contains an unpaired cytosine, d(GCGAAC AAGCG)·d(CGCTTTTCGC), which will be referred to as the C-bulge decamer. Evidence from one-dimensional nuclear Overhauser effect (NOE) experiments on the exchangeable protons indicates that the unpaired cytosine is extrahelical. This conclusion is also supported by numerous cross-peaks in the 2D NOE spectroscopy (NOESY) spectrum of the nonexchangeable protons. The assignments for all of the resonances, with the exception of the H5′ and H5″ resonances, have been made through the use of 2D NOESY, correlated spectroscopy (COSY), and relayed COSY experiments. The temperature dependence of the C(H6) resonance chemical shifts indicates that the unpaired cytosine shows unusual behavior compared to other cytosines in the duplex. A comparison of chemical shifts for all, the assigned resonances of the duplexes with and without the unpaired cytosine suggests that the majority of the structural perturbation is localized in the A·T tract surrounding the unpaired base. The behavior of the imino resonances as a function of temperature also indicates that the perturbation to the duplex is localized and destabilizes the A·T base pairs adjacent to the unpaired base. © 1993 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.  相似文献

One- and two-dimensional NMR studies on the oligomer dA1T2G3C4G5C6A7T8, with and without actinomycin D (ActD), were conducted. Analysis of the NMR data, particularly 2D NOE intensities, revealed that the free oligonucleotide is a duplex in a standard right-handed B form. At the ratio of 1 ActD/duplex (R = 1), 1D NMR studies indicate that two 1:1 unsymmetric complexes form in unequal proportions with the phenoxazone ring intercalated at a GpC site, in agreement with previous studies [Scott, E.V., Jones, R.L., Banville, D.L., Zon, G., Marzilli, L.G., & Wilson, W.D. (1988) Biochemistry 27, 915-923]. The 2D COSY data also confirm this interpretation since eight cytosine H6 to H5 and two ActD H8 to H7 cross-peaks are observed. At R = 2, both COSY and NOESY spectra confirm the formation of a unique 2:1 species with C2 symmetry. The oligomer remains in a right-handed duplex but undergoes extreme conformational changes both at and adjacent to the binding site. The deoxyribose conformation of T2, C4, and C6 shifts from primarily C2'-endo in the free duplex to an increased amount of C3'-endo in the 2:1 complex as revealed by the greater intensity of the base H6 to 3' NOE cross-peak relative to the intensity of the H6 to H2' NOE cross-peak. This conformational change widens the minor groove and should help alleviate the steric crowding of the ActD peptides. The orientation of the ActD molecules at R = 2 has the quinoid portion of the phenoxazone ring at the G3pC4 site and the benzenoid portion of the phenoxazone ring at the G5pC6 site on the basis of NOE cross-peaks from ActD H7 and H8 to G5H8 and C6H6. All base pairs retain Watson-Crick type H-bonding, unlike echinomycin complexes [e.g., Gao, X., & Patel, D.J. (1988) Biochemistry 27, 1744-1751] where Hoogsteen base pairs have been observed. In contrast to previous studies on ActD, we were able to distinguish the two peptide chains.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)  相似文献

High-resolution NMR techniques have been used to examine the structural and dynamical features of the interaction between distamycin A and the self-complementary DNA dodecamer duplex d-(CGCGAATTCGCG)2. The proton resonances of d(CGCGAATTCGCG)2 have been completely assigned by previous two-dimensional NMR studies [Hare, D. R., Wemmer, D. E., Chou, S. H., Drobny, G., & Reid, B. R. (1983) J. Mol. Biol. 171, 319-336]. Addition of the asymmetric drug molecule to the symmetric dodecamer leads to the formation of an asymmetric complex as evidenced by a doubling of DNA resonances over much of the spectrum. In two-dimensional exchange experiments, strong cross-peaks were observed between uncomplexed DNA and drug-bound DNA resonances, permitting direct assignment of many drug-bound DNA resonances from previously assigned free DNA resonances. Weaker exchange cross-peaks between formerly symmetry related DNA resonances indicate that the drug molecule flips head-to-tail on one duplex with half the frequency at which it leaves the DNA molecule completely. In experiments performed in H2O, nuclear Overhauser effects (NOEs) were observed from each drug amide proton to an adenine C2H and a pyrrole H3 ring proton. In two-dimensional nuclear Overhauser experiments performed on D2O solutions, strong intermolecular NOEs were observed between each of the three pyrrole H3 resonances of the drug and an adenine C2H resonance, with weaker NOEs observed between the drug H3 resonances and C1'H resonances. The combined NOE data allow us to position the distamycin A unambiguously on the DNA dodecamer, with the drug spanning the central AATT segment in the minor groove.  相似文献

One- and two-dimensional NMR experiments were carried out on a decamer, d-(CGCTTTTCGC).d(GCGAAAAGCG), and on the same sequence with the addition of an unpaired thymidine, d(CGCTTTTCGC).d(GCGAATAAGCG), which will be referred to as the T-bulge decamer. Evidence from one-dimensional NOE experiments on the exchangeable protons indicates that the unpaired thymidine is extrahelical. This conclusion is also supported by numerous cross-peaks in the two-dimensional NOESY spectrum of the nonexchangeable protons. Assignments for all of the resonances, with the exception of the H5' and H5" resonances, have been made for both oligonucleotide duplexes through the use of 2D NOESY, COSY, and relayed COSY experiments. Temperature dependence of the methyl resonance chemical shifts indicates that the unpaired thymidine shows unusual behavior compared to other thymidines in the duplex. Two-dimensional NOESY experiments carried out from 5 to 35 degrees C indicate the unpaired thymidine remains extrahelical throughout this temperature range. A similar temperature dependence for the methyl chemical shift is found in the corresponding single-strand d(GCGAATAAGCG). The oligo-(dA).oligo(dT) tracts in both the decamer and the T-bulge decamer have structures different from B-form DNA and exhibit NOEs similar to those observed in other oligonucleotides containing A.T tracts. The formation of this unusual A.T tract structure may induce the extrahelical conformation of the unpaired thymidine.  相似文献

One- and two-dimensional 400-MHz proton NMR experiments are used to examine the solution structure of the covalent adduct formed by the interaction of anthramycin methyl ether with the self-complementary deoxyoligonucleotide d(ATGCAT)2. The concentration dependence of chemical shifts and nuclear Overhauser enhancement (NOE) experiments are utilized to assign the adenine H2 protons within the minor groove for both free d(ATGCAT)2 and the adduct. These studies demonstrate that one of the four adenine H2 protons is in close proximity to the bound anthramycin and this results in its upfield shift of 0.3 ppm compared to the adenine H2 protons of the free duplex. Effects of the covalent attachment of anthramycin to the d(ATGCAT)2 duplex result in an increased shielding of selected deoxyribose protons located within the minor groove of the adduct, as demonstrated by two-dimensional autocorrelated (COSY) NMR techniques. Interactions between the protons of the covalently attached anthramycin and the d(ATGCAT)2 duplex are determined by utilizing two-dimensional NOE (NOESY) techniques. Analysis of these data reveals NOE cross-peaks between the anthramycin methyl, H6, and H7 protons with specific deoxyoligonucleotide protons within the minor groove, thus allowing the orientation of the drug within the minor groove to be determined. Nonselective inversion recovery (T1) relaxation experiments are used to probe the structural and dynamic properties of the anthramycin-d(ATGCAT)2 adduct. These data suggest that the binding of anthramycin alters the correlation time of the d(ATGCAT)2 duplex and stabilizes both of the internal A X T base pairs with respect to solvent exchange.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

A general method of assigning the non-exchangeable protons in the nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of small DNA molecules has been developed based upon two-dimensional autocorrelated (COSY) and nuclear Overhauser (NOESY) spectra in 2H2O solutions. Groups of protons in specific sugars or bases are identified by their scalar couplings (COSY), then connected spatially in a sequential fashion using the Overhauser effect (NOESY). The method appears to be generally applicable to moderate-sized DNA duplexes with structures close to B DNA. The self-complementary DNA sequence d(C-G-C-G-A-A-T-T-C-G-C-G) has been synthesized by the solid-phase phosphite triester technique and studied by this method. Analysis of the COSY spectrum and the NOESY spectrum leads to the unambiguous assignment of all protons in the molecule except the poorly resolved H5' and H5" resonances. The observed NOEs indicate qualitatively that, in solution, the d(C-G-C-G-A-A-T-T-C-G-C-G) helix is right-handed and close to the B DNA form with a structure similar to that determined by crystallography.  相似文献

The interactions between a peptide of cholera toxin and the aromatic amino acids of the TE33 antipeptide antibody, cross-reactive with the toxin, have been studied by NOESY difference spectroscopy. The 2D difference between the NOESY spectrum of the Fab with a 4-fold excess of the peptide and that of the peptide-saturated Fab reveals cross-peaks growing with excess of the peptide. These cross-peaks are due to magnetization transfer between the Fab and neighboring bound peptide protons, and a further transfer to the free peptide protons by exchange between bound and free peptide (transferred NOE). Additional cross-peaks appearing in the difference spectrum are due to a combination of intramolecular interactions between bound peptide protons and exchange between bound and free peptide. Assignment of cross-peaks is attained by specific deuteration of antibody aromatic amino acids using also the resonance assignment of the free peptide, deduced from the COSY spectrum of the peptide solution. The antibody combining site is found to be highly aromatic. We have identified one or two histidine, two tyrosine, and two tryptophan residues and one phenylalanine residue of the antibody interacting with valine-3, proline-4, glycine-5, glutamine-7, histidine-8, and aspartate-10 of the peptide. The 2D TRNOE difference spectroscopy can be used to study protein-ligand interactions, given that the ligand off rate is fast relative to the spin-lattice relaxation time of the protein and ligand protons (about 1 s). The resolution obtained in the difference spectra implies that the technique is equally applicable for studying proteins having a molecular weight larger than 50,000.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)  相似文献

The hydration in the minor groove of double stranded DNA fragments containing the sequences 5'-dTTAAT, 5'-dTTAAC, 5'-dTTAAA and 5'-dTTAAG was investigated by studying the decanucleotide duplex d(GCATTAATGC)2 and the singly cross-linked decameric duplexes 5'-d(GCATTAACGC)-3'-linker-5'-d(GCGTTAATGC)-3' and 5'-d(GCCTTAAAGC)-3'-linker-5'-d(GCTTTAAGGC)-3' by NMR spectroscopy. The linker employed consisted of six ethyleneglycol units. The hydration water was detected by NOEs between water and DNA protons in NOESY and ROESY spectra. NOE-NOESY and ROE-NOESY experiments were used to filter out intense exchange cross-peaks and to observe water-DNA NOEs with sugar 1' protons. Positive NOESY cross-peaks corresponding to residence times longer than approximately 0.5 ns were observed for 2H resonances of the central adenine residues in the duplex containing the sequences 5'-dTTAAT and 5'-dTTAAC, but not in the duplex containing the sequences 5'-dTTAAA and 5'-dTTAAG. In all nucleotide sequences studied here, the hydration water in the minor groove is significantly more mobile at both ends of the AT-rich inner segments, as indicated by very weak or negative water-A 2H NOESY cross-peaks. No positive NOESY cross-peaks were detected with the G 1'H and C 1'H resonances, indicating that the minor groove hydration water near GC base pairs is kinetically less restrained than for AT-rich DNA segments. Kinetically stabilized minor groove hydration water was manifested by positive NOESY cross-peaks with both A 2H and 1'H signals of the 5'-dTTAA segment in d(GCATTAATGC)2. More rigid hydration water was detected near T4 in d(GCATTAATGC)2 as compared with 5'-d(GCATTAACGC)-3'-linker-5'-d(GCGTTAATGC)-3', although the sequences differ only in a single base pair. This illustrates the high sensitivity of water-DNA NOEs towards small conformational differences.  相似文献

Only cytosine contains two adjacent aromatic protons that give rise to cross-peaks in the aromatic region of 2D-COSY spectra of oligodeoxynucleotides. In two GC-containing sequences several such cross-peaks were resolved. The intensity of these cross-peaks is a sensitive monitor of local mobility, and upon the addition of the intercalating drug daunomycin selective intensity losses were observed, indicating binding to specific GC base pairs. We have also monitored the 2D-COSY cross-peaks from mobile pyrimidine bases in tRNA (Phe) as a function of temperature.  相似文献

H NMR resonances of [cyclo (9----18) Lys1, Gly6]bradykinin (CBK) in (CD3)2SO and H2O solution have been assigned by combined analysis of two-dimensional COSY and NOESY spectra. The presence of two slowly interchangeable conformers of CBK in (CD3)2SO is established, the minor conformer not exceeding 15% in the population. The minor conformer is absent from the aqueous solution, chemical shifts of the CBK and bradykinin NH and C alpha H protons differ insignificantly. The major CBK conformer contains at least two X-Pro trans-peptide groups and three amide protons NH Phe5, NH Arg9 and N zeta H Lys1 protected from solvent. A system of cross-peaks from the NOESY spectra of CBK in (CD3)2SO has been analysed and the maximum distance between backbone protons and neighbouring amino acid residues evaluated. The experimental data agree well with the assumed type II beta-bend in the sequence Pro2-Pro3-Gly4-Phe5. Spatial structure models for the backbone fragment 6-9 of CBK containing two intramolecular hydrogen bonds that involve the NH Arg9 and N zeta H Lys1 protons and the carbonyl groups of Phe5 and Gly4 are proposed.  相似文献

Changes in the vibrational spectrum of the sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca(2+)-ATPase upon nucleotide binding were recorded in H(2)O and (2)H(2)O at -7 degrees C and pH 7.0. The reaction cycle was triggered by the photochemical release of nucleotides (ATP, ADP, and AMP-PNP) from a biologically inactive precursor (caged ATP, P(3)-1-(2-nitrophenyl) adenosine 5'-triphosphate, and related caged compounds). Infrared absorbance changes due to ATP release and two steps of the Ca(2+)-ATPase reaction cycle, ATP binding and phosphorylation, were followed in real time. Under the conditions used in our experiments, the rate of ATP binding was limited by the rate of ATP release (k(app) congruent with 3 s(-1) in H(2)O and k(app) congruent with 7 s(-1) in (2)H(2)O). Bands in the amide I and II regions of the infrared spectrum show that the conformation of the Ca(2+)-ATPase changes upon nucleotide binding. The observation of bands in the amide I region can be assigned to perturbations of alpha-helical and beta-sheet structures. According to similar band profiles in the nucleotide binding spectra, ATP, AMP-PNP, and ADP induce similar conformational changes. However, subtle differences between ATP and AMP-PNP are observed; these are most likely due to the protonation state of the gamma-phosphate group. Differences between the ATP and ADP binding spectra indicate the significance of the gamma-phosphate group in the interactions between the Ca(2+)-ATPase and the nucleotide. Nucleotide binding affects Asp or Glu residues, and bands characteristic of their protonated side chains are observed at 1716 cm(-1) (H(2)O) and 1706 cm(-1) ((2)H(2)O) and seem to depend on the charge of the phosphate groups. Bands at 1516 cm(-1) (H(2)O) and 1514 cm(-1) ((2)H(2)O) are tentatively assigned to a protonated Tyr residue affected by nucleotide binding. Possible changes in Arg, Trp, and Lys absorption and in the nucleoside are discussed. The spectra are compared with those of nucleotide binding to arginine kinase, creatine kinase, and H-ras P21.  相似文献

2D COSY 1H NMR with surface coil has been used to resolve and assign cerebral metabolites which had previously been detected but could not be resolved or assigned in situ in the living animal by conventional 1D 1H NMR. A wide range of cerebral metabolites, including alanine, N-acetyl aspartate, aspartate, choline derivatives, creatine/phosphocreatine pool, GABA, glucose, glutamate/glutamine pool, inositol, lactate and taurine were simultaneously resolved and assigned in situ in the whole animal using the 2D COSY correlation graphs. Global irreversible ischemia caused the appearance and the disappearance of cross-peaks in the 2D COSY 1H NMR map, corresponding to increases in alanine, GABA and lactate and glucose depletion.  相似文献

Exchangeable and nonexchangeable protons of [d(GGTATACC)]2 in aqueous cacodylate solution were assigned from two-dimensional nuclear Overhausser effect (2D NOE) spectra. With phase-sensitive COSY and double quantum filtered COSY (DQF-COSY) experiments, the cross-peaks resulting from deoxyribose ring conformation sensitive proton-proton vicinal couplings, i.e., all 1'-2', 1'-2", 2'-3', and 3'-4' couplings and six from 2"-3' couplings, were observed. From the cross-peak fine structure, the 2',2" proton assignments can be confirmed; coupling constants J1'2' and J1'2" and sums of coupling constants involving H2' and H2" for all residues and H3' for C8 were obtained. The DISCO procedure [Kessler, H., Muller, A., & Oschkinat, H. (1985) Magn. Reson. Chem. 23, 844-852] was used to extract individual 1'-2' and 1'-2" coupling constants. The sum of coupling constants involving H1' or H3' was measured from the one-dimensional spectrum where signal overlap is not a problem. Analysis of the resulting coupling constants and sums of coupling constants, in the manner of Rinkel and Altona [Rinkel, L. J., & Altona, C. (1987) J. Biomol. Struct. Dyn. 4, 621-649], led to the following conclusion: C2'-endo deoxyribose ring conformation is predominant for every residue, but a significant amount of C3'-endo conformation may exist, ranging from 14% to 30%.  相似文献

Native intact bovine PTH was studied by proton nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) techniques, at pH 3.5 and pH 6.3. The 1H-NMR spectra had good resolution and many multiplet structures were observed. Assignment of the NMR resonances corresponding to specific amino acids was approached using 1H chemical shifts, coupling constants, and pH dependence in the one-dimensional spectra and the 1H-1H connectivities revealed in two-dimensional homonuclear correlated spectroscopy (COSY) experiments. All the aromatic proton resonances were assigned. Two histidine residues had lower pK than the other two. The methyl groups of two residues were moved significantly downfield: using COSY and two-dimensional nuclear Overhauser enhancement spectroscopy (NOESY) correlations, these were assigned to an alanine residue close to both Trp-23 and Tyr-43, and a valine residue in close spatial proximity to Trp-23. The NOESY spectrum also showed cross-peaks between the residues of the upfield valine-leucine-isoleucine methyl envelope. Many of the H alpha protons moved upfield as the pH was increased. These results indicate that intact native PTH exists in a preferred conformation in solution at pH 6.5. Our studies have provided new information on the three-dimensional spatial proximity of several amino acids along the polypeptide chain. The observed interactions are consistent with the currently accepted model suggesting that the hormone has two separate structural domains associated with the amino- and carboxy-terminal regions of the molecule respectively. The potential implications of this model for the expression of biological activity are discussed.  相似文献

The conformation and dynamics of the deoxyribose rings of a (nogalamycin)2-d(5'-GCATGC)2 complex have been determined from an analysis of 1H-1H vicinal coupling constants and sums of coupling constants (J1'-2',J1'-2",epsilon 1', epsilon 2' and epsilon 2") measured from one-dimensional n.m.r. spectra and from H-1'-H-2' and H-1'-H-2" cross-peaks in high-resolution phase-sensitive two-dimensional correlation spectroscopy (COSY) and double-quantum-filtered correlation spectroscopy (DQF-COSY) experiments. The value of J3'-4' has also been estimated from the magnitude of H-3'-H-4' cross-peaks in DQF-COSY spectra and H-1'-H-4' coherence transfer cross-peaks in two-dimensional homonuclear Hartman-Hahn spectroscopy (HOHAHA) spectra. The data were analysed, in terms of a dynamic equilibrium between North (C-3'-endo) and South (C-2'-endo) conformers, by using the graphical-analysis methods described by Rinkel & Altona [(1987) J. Biomol. Struct. Dyn. 4,621-649]. The data reveal that the sugars of the 2C-5G and 3A-4T base-pairs, which form the drug-intercalation site, have strikingly different properties. The deoxyribose rings of the 2C-5G base-pair are best described in terms of an equilibrium heavily weighted in favour of the C-2'-endo geometry (greater than 95% 'S'), with a phase angle, P, lying in the range 170-175 degrees and amplitude of pucker between 35 and 40 degrees, as typically found for B-DNA. For the deoxyribose rings of the 3A-4T base-pair, however, the analysis shows that, for 3A, the C-2'-endo and C3'-endo conformers are equally populated, whereas a more limited data set for the 4T nucleotide restricts the equilibrium to within 65-75% C-2'-endo. The deoxyribose rings of the 1G-6C base-pair have populations of 70-80% C-2'-endo, typical of nucleotides at the ends of a duplex. Although drug-base-pair stacking interactions are an important determinant of the enhanced duplex stability of the complex [Searle, Hall, Denny, & Wakelin (1988) Biochemistry 27, 4340-4349], the current findings make it clear that the same interactions can be associated with considerable variations in the degree of local structural dynamics at the level of the sugar puckers.  相似文献
