Primary Structure Effects on Peptide Group Hydrogen Exchange
TLDR
The results provide the information necessary to evaluate measured protein NH to ND exchange rates by comparing them with rates to be expected for the same amino acid sequence is unstructured aligo‐ and polypeptides.Abstract:
The rate of exchange of peptide group NH hydrogens with the hydrogens of aqueous solvent is sensitive to neighboring side chains. To evaluate the effects of protein side chains, all 20 naturally occurring amino acids were studied using dipeptide models. Both inductive and steric blocking effects are apparent. The additivity of nearest-neighbor blocking and inductive effects was tested in oligo- and polypeptides and, surprisingly, confirmed. Reference rates for alanine-containing peptides were determined and effects of temperature considered. These results provide the information necessary to evaluate measured protein NH to ND exchange rates by comparing them with rates to be expected for the same amino acid sequence is unstructured oligo- and polypeptides. The application of this approach to protein studies is discussed.read more

TL;DR: It is shown that after binding flavin mononucleotide with nanomolar affinity, the protein relaxes extremely slowly to an energetically more favourable state with picomolar-binding affinity, and that H/D exchange can pinpoint amino acids that cause tight cofactor binding.

Analysis of protein mixtures by electrospray mass spectrometry: Effects of conformation and desolvation behavior on the signal intensities of hemoglobin subunits
TL;DR: Important factors that have to be considered for the ESI-MS analysis of protein mixtures are conformational effects, resulting in differential surface activities, and dissimilarities in the protein desolvation behavior.

Hydrogen-deuterium exchange in the free and immunoglobulin G-bound protein G B-domain.
TL;DR: Hydrogen-deuterium exchange experiements have been used to measure backbone amide proton (NH) exchange rates in the free and IgG-bound protein G B2-domain (GB2), indicating that the majority of detectable NHs exchange through a global unfolding mechanism, reflecting the cooperative two-state unfolding behavior observed thermodynamically.

Protein fluctuations as the possible origin of the thermal activation of rod photoreceptors in the dark.
TL;DR: The absolute sensitivity threshold of the visual system is limited by structural fluctuations of the chromophore binding pocket rather than in the Chromophore itself, and a quantitative two-step model is proposed which accurately reproduced both the experimental activation barrier and the rate of the dark events.

TL;DR: Overall, it appears that the pulsed HDX MS/MS approach introduced in this work represents a widely applicable tool for deciphering the relationship between ESI mass spectra and protein quaternary structures in solution.

TL;DR: In this article, a new mixing scheme based on the MLEV-16 composite pulse decoupling cycle (II) was proposed, which is less sensitive to pulse imperfections and provides net magnetization transfer over a substantial bandwidth with only limited rf power.

A two-dimensional nuclear overhauser enhancement (2d noe) experiment for the elucidation of complete proton-proton cross-relaxation networks in biological macromolecules
TL;DR: The 2D NOE experiment has the principal advantage that it avoids detrimental effects arising from the limited selectivity of preirradiation in crowded spectral regions, and yields with a single instrument setting a complete network of NOE's between all the protons in the macromolecule.
