Abstract
The NMR and molecular dynamics methods are used to study the conformations of a hexapeptide, GRGDTP, which has been shown to be accessible to various types of cell-adhesion based cellular behaviors such as cell-to-matrix interactions, cell differentiation, immunogenicity development, gene expression, angiogenesis, metastasis, sex determination and gamete fusion. (1)H-NMR results indicate the existence of weak 5->2 hydrogen bonded ?-turn type-III. Molecular simulation studies using a mixed protocol of distance geometry, constrained minimization, restrained molecular dynamics followed by energy minimization resulted additional conformations that include about 64% of population of inverse ?-turn (HB, 3->1) and about 35% population of ?-turn (HB, 4->2). The inter-proton distances observed in ?-and inverse ?-turns are also consistent with the NMR constraints. The variable internal hydrogen bonding due to ?-turns initiated at Gly and Arg, and its tendency to inter-convert between ?-and inverse ?-turn conformations imply that the peptide is flexible in nature.
