    Notes: Abstract Zervamicin-IIB (Zrv-IIB) is a 16 residue peptaibol which forms voltage-activated, multiple conductance level channels in planar lipid bilayers. A molecular model of Zrv-IIB channels is presented. The structure of monomerc Zrv-II3 is based upon the crystal structure of Zervamicin-Leu. The helical backbone is kinked by a hydroxyproline residue at position 10. Zrv-IIB channels are modelled as helix bundles of from 4 to 8 parallel helices surrounding a central pore. The monomers are packed with their C-terminal helical segments in close contact, and the bundles are stabilized by hydrogen bonds between glutamine 11 and hydroxyproline 10 of adjacent helices. Interaction energy profiles for movement of three different probes species (K+, Cl− and water) through the central pore are analyzed. The conformations of: (a) the sidechain of glutamine 3; (b) the hydroxyl group of hydroxyproline 10; and (c) the C-terminal hydroxyl group are “optimized” in order to maximize favourable interactions between the channel and the probes, resulting in favourable interaction energy profiles for all three. This suggests that conformational flexibility of polar sidechains enables the channel lining to mimic an aqueous environment.

    The properties of ion channels formed by zervamicins (1992)

    Notes: Abstract The zervamicins (Zrv) are a family of 16 residue peptaibol channel formers, related to the 20 residue peptaibol alamethicin (Alm), but containing a higher proportion of polar sidechains. Zrv-1113 forms multi-level channels in planar lipid (diphytanoyl phosphatidylcholine) bilayers in response to cis positive voltages. Analysis of the voltage and concentration dependence of macroscopic conductances induced by Zrv-IIB suggests that, on average, channels contain ca. 13 peptide monomers. Analysis of single channel conductance levels suggests a similar value. The pattern of successive conductance levels is consistent with a modified helix bundle model in which the higher order bundle are distorted within the plane of the bilayer towards a “torpedo” shaped cross-section. The kinetics of intro-burst switching between adjacent conductance levels are shown to be approximately an order of magnitude faster for Zrv-IIB than for Alm. The channel forming properties of the related naturally occurring peptaibols, Zrv-Leu and Zrv-IC, have also been demonstrated, as have those of the synthetic apolar analogue Zrv-Al-16. The experimental studies on channel formation are combined with the known crystallographic structures of Zrv-Al-16 and Zrv-Leu to develop a molecular model of Zrv-II3 channels.

    Notes: Pivaloyl-L-Pro-Aib-N-methylamide has been shown to possess one intramolecular hydrogen bond in (CD3)2SO solution, by 1H-nmr methods, suggesting the existence of β-turns, with Pro-Aib as the corner residues. Theoretical conformational analysis suggests that Type II β-turn conformations are about 2 kcal mol-1 more stable than Type III structures. A crystallographic study has established the Type II β-turn in the solid state. The molecule crystallizes in the space group P21 with a = 5.865 Å, b = 11.421 Å, c = 12.966 Å, β = 97.55°, and Z = 2. The structure has been refined to a final R value of 0.061. The Type II β-turn conformation is stabilized by an intramolecular 4 → 1 hydrogen bond between the methylamide NH and the pivaloyl CO group. The conformational angles are φPro = -57.8°, ψPro = 139.3°, φAib = 61.4°, and ψAib = 25.1°. The Type II β-turn conformation for Pro-Aib in this peptide is compared with the Type III structures observed for the same segment in larger peptides.

    Aggregation of apolar peptides in organic solvents. Concentration dependence of 1H-nmr parameters for peptide NH groups in 310 helical decapeptide fragment of suzukacillin (1982)

    Notes: Peptide NH chemical shifts and their temperature dependences have been monitored as a function of concentration for the decapeptide, Boc-Aib-Pro-Val-Aib-Val-Ala-Aib-Ala-Aib-Aib-OMe in CDCl3 (0.001-0.06M) and (CD3)2SO (0.001-0.03M). The chemical shifts and temperature coefficients for all nine NH groups show no significant concentration dependence in (CD3)2SO. Seven NH groups yield low values of temperature coefficients over the entire range, while one yields an intermediate value. In CDCl3, the Aib(1) NH group shows a large concentration dependence of both chemical shift and temperature coefficient, in contrast to the other eight NH groups. The data suggest that in (CD3)2SO, the peptide adopts a 310 helical conformation and is monomeric over the entire concentration range. In CDCl3, the 310 helical peptide associates at a concentration of 0.01M, with the Aib(1) NH involved in an intermolecular hydrogen bond. Association does not disrupt the intramolecular hydrogen-bonding pattern in the decapeptide.

    Circular dichroism studies of α-aminoisobutyric acid-containing peptides: Chain length and solvent effects in alternating Aib-L-Ala and Aib-L-Val sequences (1984)

    Notes: The CD spectra of the peptides Boc-X-(Aib-X)n-OMe (n = 1, 2, 3) and Boc-(Aib-X)5-OMe, where X = L-Ala or L-Val have been examined in several solvents. The X = Ala and Val peptides behave similarly in all solvents, suggesting that the Aib residues dominate the folding preferences of these peptides. The decapeptides adopt helical conformations in methanol and trifluoroethanol, with characteristic negative CD bands at 222 and 205 nm. In the heptapeptides, similar spectra with reduced intensities are observed. Comparison with nmr studies suggest that estimates of helical content in oligopeptides by CD methods may lead to erroneous conclusions. The pentapeptides yield solvent-dependent spectra indicative of conformational perturbations. Peptide association in dioxane results in an unusual spectrum with a single negative band at 210 nm for the decapeptides. Disaggregation is induced by the addition of methanol or water to dioxane solutions. Aggregation of the heptapeptides is less pronounced in dioxane, suggesting that a critical helix length may be necessary to promote association stabilized by helix dipole-dipole interactions.

    Conformational effects on peptide aggregation in organic solvents: Spectroscopic studies of two chemotactic tripeptide analogs (1985)

    Notes: The aggregation behavior of the chemotactic peptide analogs, Formyl-Met-Leu-Phe-OMe (1) and Formyl-Met-Aib-Phe-OMe (2), has been studied in chloroform and dimethylsulfoxide over the concentration range of 0.2-110 mM by 1H-nmr spectroscopy. Both peptides associate in CDCl3 at concentrations ≥ 2 mM, while there is no evidence for aggregation in (CD3)2SO. Analog 1 adopts an extended conformation in both solvents favoring association to form β-sheet structures. A folded, γ-turn conformation involving a 3 → 1 hydrogen bond between Met CO and Phe NH is supported by 1H-, 13C-nmr, and ir studies of analog 2. The influence of backbone conformation on the ease of peptide aggregation is demonstrated by ir studies in CHCl3 and CD studies in dioxane.

    Notes: The conformational analysis of a protected homodipeptide of 1-aminocyclopentanecarboxylic acid (Acc5) has been carried out. 1H-nmr studies establish a β-turn conformation for Boc-Acc5-Acc5-NHMe in chloroform and dimethylsulfoxide solutions involving the methylamide NH in an intramolecular hydrogen bond. Supportive evidence for the formation of an intramolecular hydrogen bond is obtained from ir studies. X-ray diffraction studies reveal a type III β-turn conformation in the solid state stabilized by a 4 → 1 hydrogen bond between the Boc CO and methylamide NH groups. The φ,ψ values for both Acc5 residues are close to those expected for an ideal 310-helical conformation (φ≃ ± 60°, ψ∼ ±30°).

    Notes: A second example of insertion of a water molecule into the helical backbone of an apolar peptide is presented here and compared to a similar occurrence in a longer peptide with the same type of sequence of residues, i.e., Boc-Aib-(Ala-Leu-Aib)3-OMe. The backbone of the title compound assumes an approximate 310-helical form with three 4 → 1 hydrogen bonds. In the place of a fourth 4 → 1 hydrogen bond, a water molecule is inserted between O(1) and N(4), and acts as a bridge by forming hydrogen bonds N(4) … W(1) (2.95 Å) and W(1) … O(1) (2.81 Å). The water molecule participates in a third hydrogen bond with a neighboring peptide molecule, W(1) … O(4) (2.91 Å). The insertion of the water molecule causes the apolar peptide to mimic an amphiphilic helix. Crystals grown from ethyl acetate/petroleum ether (reported here) or from methanol/water solution are in space group P212121 with a = 12.024(4) Å, b = 15.714(6) Å, c = 21.411(7) Å, Z = 4 and dcalc = 1.124 g/cm3 for C32H58N6O9 · H2O. The overall agreement factor R is 6.3% for 2707 reflections observed with intensities 〉 3σ(F) and the resolution is 0.90 Å.
