Enhanced β-turn conformational stability of tripeptides containing Δphe in cis over trans configuration
2013
Conformations of three pairs of dehydropeptides with the opposite configuration of the Delta Phe residue, Boc-Gly-Delta(Z/E)Phe-Phe-p-NA (Z- p -NA and E- p -NA), Boc-Gly-Delta(Z/E)Phe-Phe-OMe (Z-OMe and E-OMe), and Boc-Gly-Delta(Z/E)Phe-Phe-OH (Z-OH and E-OH) were compared on the basis of CD and NMR studies in MeOH, TFE, and DMSO. The CD results were used as the additional input data for the NMR-based calculations of the detailed solution conformations of the peptides. It was found that Z- p -NA, E- p -NA, Z-OMe, and Z-OH adopt the beta-turn conformations and E-OMe and E-OH are unordered. There are two overlapping type III beta-turns in Z- p -NA, type II' beta-turn in E- p -NA, and type II …
Effect of the ΔPhe residue configuration on a didehydropeptides conformation: A combined CD and NMR study.
2010
Conformations of two pairs of dehydropeptides with the opposite configuration of the ΔPhe residue, Boc-Gly-Δ(Z)Phe-Gly-Phe-OMe (Z-OMe), Boc-Gly-Δ(E)Phe-Gly-Phe-OMe (E-OMe), Boc-Gly-Δ(Z)Phe-Gly-Phe-p-NA (Z-p-NA), and Boc-Gly-Δ(E)Phe-Gly-Phe-p-NA (E-p-NA) were compared on the basis of CD and NMR studies in MeOH, trifluoroethanol (TFE), MeCN, chloroform, and dimethylsulfoxide (DMSO). The CD results were used as the additional input data for the NMR-based determination of the detailed solution conformations of the peptides. It was found that E-OMe is unordered and Z-OMe, Z-p-NA, and E-p-NA adopt the β-turn conformation. There are two overlapping β-turns in each of those peptides: type II and ty…
