pH-dependent random coil 1H, 13C, and 15N chemical shifts of the ionizable amino acids: a guide for protein pK a measurements

pH-dependent random coil 1H, 13C, and 15N chemical shifts of the ionizable amino acids: a guide for protein pK a measurements

Abstract

The pK a values and charge states of ionizable residues in polypeptides and proteins are frequently determined via NMR-monitored pH titrations. To aid the interpretation of the resulting titration data, we have measured the pH-dependent chemical shifts of nearly all the 1H, 13C, and 15N nuclei in the seven common ionizable amino acids (XÂ*=Â*Asp, Glu, His, Cys, Tyr, Lys, and Arg) within the context of a blocked tripeptide, acetyl-Gly-X-Gly-amide. Alanine amide and N-acetyl alanine were used as models of the N- and C-termini, respectively. Together, this study provides an essentially complete set of pH-dependent intra-residue and nearest-neighbor reference chemical shifts to help guide protein pK a measurements. These data should also facilitate pH-dependent corrections in algorithms used to predict the chemical shifts of random coil polypeptides. In parallel, deuterium isotope shifts for the side chain 15N nuclei of His, Lys, and Arg in their positively-charged and neutral states were also measured. Along with previously published results for Asp, Glu, Cys, and Tyr, these deuterium isotope shifts can provide complementary experimental evidence for defining the ionization states of protein residues.

RCI - Random Coil Index for predicting protein flexibility from chemical shifts RCI website RCI method predicts protein flexibility by calculating the Random Coil Index from backbone chemical shifts and predicting values of model-free order parameters as well as per-residue RMSF of NMR and MD ensembles from the Random Coil Index. The key advantages of this protocol over existing methods of studying protein flexibility are (i) it does not require prior knowledge of a protein's tertiary structure, (ii) it is not sensitive to the protein's overall tumbling and (iii) it does not require additional NMR measurements beyond the standard experiments for backbone...	markber	NMR software	0	02-02-2012 11:36 PM

Sequence correction of random coil chemical shifts: correlation between neighbor correction factors and changes in the Ramachandran distribution Sequence correction of random coil chemical shifts: correlation between neighbor correction factors and changes in the Ramachandran distribution Abstract Random coil chemical shifts are necessary for secondary chemical shift analysis, which is the main NMR method for identification of secondary structure in proteins. One of the largest challenges in the determination of random coil chemical shifts is accounting for the effect of neighboring residues. The contributions from the neighboring residues are typically removed by using neighbor correction factors determined based on each...	nmrlearner	Journal club	0	06-06-2011 12:53 AM
Random coil chemical shift for intrinsically disordered proteins: effects of temperature and pH Random coil chemical shift for intrinsically disordered proteins: effects of temperature and pH Abstract Secondary chemical shift analysis is the main NMR method for detection of transiently formed secondary structure in intrinsically disordered proteins. The quality of the secondary chemical shifts is dependent on an appropriate choice of random coil chemical shifts.

However, the experimental measurement of protein motions is often difficult, tedious and error-prone. As a result, there is a considerable interest in developing simpler and faster ways of quantifying protein flexibility.
