| Abstract | A multi-histidinic peptide and its minimal models have been investigated for Zn(II) binding. We have used NMR spectroscopy to probe the binding of zinc to the three repeats (T1R2S3R4S5H6T7S8E9G10)3 and to its mono-histidinic minimal models, the 9- and 10-aminoacid fragment. 1H-1H TOCSY, 1H-13C HSQC, 1H-1H NOESY and 1H-1H ROESY multidimensional NMR techniques were performed to understand the details of metal binding sites and the conformational behaviour of the peptides at different pH values and at different ligand to metal molar ratios. Zinc coordination involves imidazole Nδ of His6 and carboxyl γ-O of Glu9 residues; interaction with peptide oxygens of the His6-Thr7 or Thr7-Ser8 bonds in a tetrahedral arrangement with the minimal model peptides, cannot be excluded. Zinc coordination involves, at physiologic pH, all the three imidazole Nδ donors of His6, His16 and His26 as well as carboxyl γ-O of Glu residues in a tetra, penta or octahedral arrangement with the three repeats, the 30-aminoacid fragment. Zinc complexation induces important structural changes with the C-terminal portion of the ligand, constraining it to leave its disordered conformation. Our results give rise to a model of the induced structure of the peptides when bound to zinc. At high pH, amide deprotonation does not take place and hydroxo or high molecular weight polymeric species may be formed. |

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.
