The determination of the bound solution conformation of D-gluco-dihydroacarbose (GAC), a tight-binding inhibitor of several glycosidase and amylase enzymes, by glucoamylase is described. Transferred NOE NMR experiments and line-broadening effects indicate that GAC is bound in a conformation resembling that observed in the crystal structure. This contrasts with the predominant conformation of GAC when free in solution. The NMR results also suggest regions on the carbohydrate that are in close contact with the protein. The determination of the bound solution conformation of GAC by glucoamylase using transferred NOE (trNOE) measurements is a significant achievement given the high affinity constant (Ka = 3 x 10(7) M(-1)) for this receptor-ligand pair. It is striking that the off-rate for complexation is still sufficiently high to permit observation of trNOEs.

Alternative SAIL-Trp for robust aromatic signal assignment and determination of the Ï?2 conformation by intra-residue NOEs
Abstract Tryptophan (Trp) residues are frequently found in the hydrophobic cores of proteins, and therefore, their side-chain conformations, especially the precise locations of the bulky indole rings, are critical for determining structures by NMR. However, when analyzing -proteins, the observation and assignment of the ring signals are often hampered by excessive overlaps and tight spin couplings. These difficulties have been greatly alleviated by using...
