Abstract
Water molecules can interact with aromatic moieties using either their O-H bonds or their lone-pairs of electrons. In proteins, water-? interactions have been reported to occur with tryptophan and histidine residues, and dynamic exchange between O-H? hydrogen bonding and lone-pair? interactions was suggested to take place, based on ab initio calculations. Here we used classical and QM/MM molecular dynamics simulations, complemented with an NMR study, to examine a specific water-indole interaction observed in the engrailed homeodomain and in its mutants. Our simulations indicate that the binding mode between water and indole can adapt to the potential created by the surrounding amino acids (and by the residues at the DNA surface in protein-DNA complexes), and support the model of dynamic switching between the O-H? hydrogen bonding and lone-pair? binding modes.

Protein backboneN NMR spin relaxation rates are useful in characterizing the protein dynamics and structures. To observe the protein nuclear-spin resonances a pulse sequence has to include a water suppression scheme. There are two commonly employed methods, saturating or dephasing the water spins with pulse field gradients and keeping them unperturbed with flip-back pulses....

From a series of 15N-resolved 3D ROESY-HMQC and 13C-resolved 3D NOESY-HMQC spectra of the FK506 binding protein (FKBP)/ascomycin complex in H2O, the locations of three tightly bound water molecules were identified. These waters are all buried within the...
