| Abstract | The pK $_{a}$ values of the peptide derived from the immunoglobulin binding protein G, Ac-Asp-Asp-Ala-Thr-Lys-Thr-NH$_{2}$ (Dag1), and its derivative Ac-Asp-Asp-(meta-aminobenzoic acid)-Lys-Thr-NH$_{2}$ (Dag1_M), were measured using potentiometric titrations in the temperature range from 25 to 50 °C. The heat capacity profiles for both systems were determined by differential scanning calorimetry in the temperature range 10–90 °C and CD measurements were made at nine different temperatures.To decrease the mobility of the peptide under study (Dag1), and to ensure a better stability of its structure (better stiffness), the amino acids from the turn region of Dag1 (Ala3 and Thr4) in the original sequences were replaced by the meta-aminobenzoic acid (MABA) residue, which acts as a β-mimetic. The results obtained in this work suggest that the charged residues present in both sequences (Asp1, Asp2 and Lys5) are in similar environments in both peptides. Therefore, the shapes of the dominant conformations of Dag1 and Dag1_M should be similar to each other; specifically, both peptides probably have a bent structure. Negative bands in the CD spectra are present at 195 and 215 nm for Dag1 and Dag1_M, respectively, which are characteristic of a statistical coil conformation. The pK $_{a}$ values for charged amino acids (two Asp and one Lys) at t = 25 °C in both sequences are very similar, which suggests that the environments for those ionizable groups are similar. |

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.
