| Abstract | A 33-residue pseudo-wild-type GCN4 leucine zipper peptide is used to probe the equilibrium conformational population in proteins. 13Calpha-NMR shows that chain sites differ in structural content at a given temperature, and that two dimeric folded forms are evident at many sites. Spin inversion transfer experiments are reported bearing on the thermodynamics and kinetics of interconversion of the two dimeric folded forms (Fa <--> Fb) at the 13Calpha-labeled position L13. At each temperature, at conditions wherein the population of unfolded chains is quite small, inversion of the Fa spins via a tuned Gaussian pi-pulse is followed by a time interval (tau), interrogation, and recording of the free induction decay. Fifteen such inversions, with varying tau, provide the time course for recovery of equilibrium magnetization after inversion. Similar experiments follow inversion of the Fb spins. Re-equilibration is known to be modulated by four first-order rate constants: two (T1a(-1) and T1b(-1)) for spin-lattice relaxation intrinsic to the respective sites, and two (kab and kba) for the conformational change. All four follow from joint, Bayesian analysis of all the data at each temperature. The equilibrium constant at each temperature for this local transition, determined simply from the equilibrium relative magnetizations at Fa and Fb sites, agrees well with the kinetic ratio kab/kba. The standard Gibbs energies, enthalpy, and entropy follow. Activation parameters, both ways, are accessible from the rate constants and suggest a transition state with high Gibbs energy and enthalpy, but with entropy between those of Fa and Fb. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
