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

Pheromone discrimination by a pH-tuned polymorphism of the Bombyx mori pheromone-binding protein
TL;DR: It is shown that a pH-dependent conformational polymorphism of BMorPBP affords highly selective transport of the pheromone, demonstrating an active role for BmorPBP in ligand discrimination.

Nuclear magnetic resonance characterization of the jun leucine zipper domain : unusual properties of coiled-coil interfacial polar residues
TL;DR: A dynamic model is proposed which can explain the apparent differences in symmetry observed in NMR and X-ray crystallographic studies of leucine zipper homodimers and imposes specificity for the dimer structure at the expense of stability.

A two-state allosteric model for autoinhibition rationalizes WASP signal integration and targeting.
TL;DR: It is shown that the allosteric regulation of WASP can be quantitatively described by a two-state equilibrium between an active, largely unfolded conformation that is able to stimulate the Arp2/3 complex, and an inactive, folded conformation.

Dynamics of cAPK Type IIβ Activation Revealed by Enhanced Amide H/2H Exchange Mass Spectrometry (DXMS)

TL;DR: The decreased amide hydrogen exchange for residues 253-268 within cAMP binding domain A and for residues 102-115, which include the pseudosubstrate inhibitory site, support the prediction that these two regions represent the conserved primary and peripheral C-subunit binding sites.

Noncooperative folding of subdomains in Adenylate Kinase
TL;DR: The equilibrium thermodynamic stabilities of Adk from both mesophilic and hyperthermophilic bacteria were investigated using solution state NMR spectroscopy together with protein engineering experiments and it is apparent that the flexible subdomains fold into their native structure in a noncooperative manner with respect to the CORE subdomain.

MLEV-17-based two-dimensional homonuclear magnetization transfer spectroscopy
Ad Bax,Donald G. Davis +1 more
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.
