    Description / Table of Contents: Zusammenfassung Die Elektronenanregungsspektren einiger substituierter 2-Styryl-4-phenyl-thiazol-ethiodide wurden in einigen Lösungsmitteln unterschiedlicher Polarität untersucht. Die Absorption bei kürzerer Wellenlänge wird einem intramolekularen Charge-Transfer (CT)-Übergang zugeordnet, die langwellige Bande einem intermolekularen CT-Übergang (Jodid—organ. Kation). Die Diskussion erfolgt basierend auf Substitutions-, Lösungsmittel-, Konzentrations-, und Temperatur-Effekten. Die Komplexbildungskonstanten und die thermodynamischen Parameter ΔH o, ΔG o und ΔS o werden angegeben.
    Notes: Abstract The electronic absorption spectra of some 2-styryl-4-phenyl-thiazole ethiodides are studied in organic solvents of different polarities. The shorter wavelength band appearing in the visible region is assigned to an intramolecular charge transfer (CT)-transition originating from the phenyl moiety to the positively charged hetero ring, while the longer wavelength one is due to an intermolecular CT-transition from the iodide ion to the 2-styryl-4-phenyl-thiazolinium cation. These assignments are based on the nature of the aldehydic residue and effects of solvent, concentration, and temperature on both the position and absorptivity of the CT complex-band. It is concluded that the CT complex formed will be highly solvated inDMF, DMSO, ethanol and methanol relative to in CHCl3, dioxane and acetone. The formation constant of the CT complex in solutions of different polarities is determined at different temperatures. Furthermore, the thermodynamic parameters ΔH o, ΔG o and ΔS o for complex formation are calculated and discussed.

    Notes: Helical hydrophobic moment ratios, 〈h2〉/〈H2〉, have been evaluated for 34 polypeptides under conditions where the helix content is dictated solely by the short-range interactions operative in aqueous media. The mean-square helical hydrophobic moment is denoted by 〈h2〉, and 〈H2〉 is the averaged of the squared hydrophobicites. This ratio would be one in absence of any correlation in the hydrophobicities of amino acid residues in helices. The 〈h2〉/〈H2〉 tend to be substantially larger than values of the analogous ratio formulated for the mean-square dipole moments of typical synthetic polymers. For 24 of the 34 polypeptide chains considered, 〈h2〉/〈H2〉 is found to be greater than one, indicating a tendency to form helices with amphiphilic character. The ratio is exceptionally large in the case of the δ-hemolysins. It is also large for two other surface-active peptides, for two of the four apolipoproteins examined, and for myohemerythrin. A much smaller 〈h2〉/〈H2〉 is found for melittins. If melittins is to form helices with large 〈h2〉/〈H2〉, the configurational statistics must be governed by effects in addition to those short-range interactions that occur when water is the solvent.

    Mean-square hydrophobic moment for partially helical polypeptides (1984)

    Notes: A mean-square helical hydrophobic moment, 〈h2〉, is defined for polypeptides in analogy to the mean-square dipole moment, 〈μ2〉, for polymer chains. For a freely jointed polymer chain, 〈μ2〉 is given by Σmi2, where mi denotes the dipole moment associated with bond i. In the absence of any correlations in the hydrophobic moments of individual amino acid residues in the helix, 〈h2〉 is specified by ΣHi2, where Hi denotes the hydrophobicity of residue i. The tendency for correlations in orientations of residue hydrophobic moments in helices therefore dictates the size of 〈h2〉/〈H2〉, where 〈H2〉 denotes the average value of ΣHi2 for all helices. The value of 〈h2〉/〈H2〉 will be greater than one in amphiphilic helices. A necessary prerequisite for this diagnostic usage of 〈h2〉/〈H2〉 is that the residue hydrophobic moment be oriented prependicular to the principal axis of the helix. Matrix-generation schemes are formulated that permit rapid evaluation of 〈h2〉 and 〈H2〉. The behavior of 〈h2〉/〈H2〉 is illustrated by calculations performed for model sequential copolypeptides.

    Molecular orbital treatment of phenylfurans and bifurans (1981)

    Notes: The molecule-in-molecule method of computation has been applied in a SCF study of the electronic absorption spectra of 2- and 3-phenylfurans and 2,2′- and 3,3′-bifurans. The computed values for the transition energies and band intensities differ for the different isomers and help one to assign the preferred conformer of the studied molecules. Computations were performed on planar as well as nonplanar conformers. The calculated parameters as well as the interaction energy suggest all-planar configuration for the studied molecules. A model potential for the sigma framework for the ortho-hydrogens is considered. The calculated steric repulsion energy is negligible compared to the π delocalization. The height of the rotational barrier was larger for 2-phenylfuran than for 3-phenylfuran, and larger for 2,2′-bifuran than for 3,3′-bifuran. This result is in accord with predictions based on the extent of “π” conjugation in these molecules.

    Behavior of amphipathic helices on analysis via matrix methods, with application to glucagon, secretin, and vasoactive intestinal peptide (1983)

    Notes: A configuration partition function, which incorporates concepts embodied in the amphipathic helix hypothesis, has been formulated for a polypeptide in the presence of zwitterionic phospholipid. An enhanced probability is assigned to helix formation in any region of the polypeptide chain where side chains bearing charges of opposite sign will be situated on the same side of the α-helix but displaced from one another by one turn. This situation will arise when residues i - 4 (or i - 3) and i bear charges of opposite sign and residue i - 4 (or i - 3) through i are in a helical state. Illustrative calculations are performed for polypeptide chains in which the generalized nonionic amino acid residue serving as host has Zimm-Bragg parameters of σ = 10-4, s = 1. These calculations define conditions under which two interacting charged pairs can cooperate in a synergistic helix augmentation even when the two pairs are separated by significantly more than four generalized nonionic amino acid residues. Furthermore, the two interacting charged pairs, as well as the intervening amino acid residues, may become helical as one unit. Significant augmentation in helicity is observed with plausible values for the enhanced probablity assigned to helix formation for an interacting pair. This model predicts correctly that glucagon and secretin, but not vasoactive intestinal peptide, undergo a coil-to-helix trnsition in the presence of zwitterionic phospholipid. This prediction is made with plausible values for the parameter used to express the helicity enhancement. The experimental observation with zwitterionic phospholipids is the direct opposite of that seen for these three peptides in the presence of anionic lipids and detergents. In anionic lipids the amount of induced helicity is in the following order: glucagon 〈 secretin 〈 vasoactive intestinal peptide. Results obtained with these three peptides demonstrate that the nature of the head group of the lipid is important for lipid-protein interaction and that the resulting conformational changes can be rationalized by matrix methods.
