    Notes: The 1H-nmr chemical shifts and the spin-spin coupling constants of the common amino acid residues were measured in solutions of the linear tetrapeptides H-Gly-Gly-X-L-Ala-OH in D2O and H2O, the influence of X on the nmr parameters of the neighboring residues Gly 2 and Ala 4 was investigated. The titration parameters for the side chains of Asp, Glu, Lys, Tyr, and His were determined. The pKa values obtained in D2O, with the use of pH-meter readings with a combination glass electrode uncorrected for istope effects, were 0.06 pH units higher in the acidic range and 0.10 pH units higher in the basic range than the corresponding pKa values in H2O. This suggests that the present data are suitable “random-coil” 1H-nmr parameters for conformational studies of polypeptide chains in D2O and H2O solutions.

    Use of amide 1H-nmr titration shifts for studies of polypeptide conformation (1979)

    Notes: This paper shows that backbone amide proton titration shifts in polypeptide chains are a very sensitive manifestation of intramolecular hydrogen bonding between carboxylate groups and backbone amide protons. The population of specific hydrogen-bonded structures in the ensemble of species that constitutes the conformation of a flexible nonglobular linear peptide can be determined from the extent of the titration shifts. As an illustration, an investigation of the molecular conformation of the linear peptide H-Gly-Gly-L-Glu-L-Ala-OH is described. The proposed use of amide proton titration shifts for investigating polypeptide conformation is based on 360-MHz 1H-nmr studies of selected linear oligopeptides in H2O solutions. It was found that only a very limited number of amide protons in a polypeptide chain show sizable intrinsic intration shifts arising from through-bond interactions with ionizable groups. These are the amide proton of the C-terminal amino acid residue, the amide protons of Asp and the residues following Asp, and possibly the amide proton of the residue next to the N-terminus. Since the intrinsic titration shifts are upfield, the downfield titration shifts arising from conformation-dependent through-space interactions, in particular hydrogen bonding between the amide protons and carboxylate groups, can readily be identified.

    1H- and 13C-NMR. Studies of the molecular conformations of cyclo-tetraglycyl [1] (1975)

    Notes: The 1H- and 13C-NMR. spectra of cyclo-tetraglycyl show that the four peptide groups are magnetically equivalent, and different from either a standard trans or a standard cis peptide group. It is suggested that the observed NMR. features correspond to a non-planar form of the peptide groups. On the one hand these data confirm the earlier conclusions from theoretical investigations of the molecular geometry, that cyclic tetrapeptides could not contain four standard trans peptide groups. On the other hand they are not consistent with a previously suggested alternative molecular conformation according to which cyclo-tetraglycyl would adopt a conformation similar to cyclo-tetrasarcosyl, with two cis and two trans peptide bonds. The different behaviour of glycine and sarcosine under the steric strains of tetrapeptide ring closure would appear to suggest that with the exception of the X-Pro bonds, transoid peptide groups in polypeptide chains of the common amino acids should be more likely to occur than the cis form, which has as yet apparently not been observed for N-unsubstituted peptide groups in natural peptides or proteins.
