(Ester, anhydride, ether, amide, …?) 5 • In 55.5 M H2O, will equilibrium lie in the direction of peptide bond formation or hydrolysis? • Why aren’t we all just puddles of amino acids? • Thermodynamics (direction) vs. Kinetics (rate) 6 Peptides/Primary Structure 3 BIOC 460 Summer 2010 Terminology: N-terminus, C-terminus, A.A. residue Numbering Backbone Polarity Sequence Composition N C 7 Backbone of peptide α α α α α • Which atoms in the peptide backbone are tetrahedral? • Hydrogen bonding potential • Oligo- vs. Polypeptide • Mass in daltons (amu) or kilodaltons (kD) • Mean residue weight ~110 daltons 8 Peptides/Primary Structure 4 BIOC 460 Summer 2010 Posttranslational modification of proteins • Chemical modification after protein synthesis • Modification carried out by specific enzymes • Examples: – Hydroxylation of Pro or Lys • 4-hydroxyproline (HyP) • Enzyme: prolyl hydroxylase • Collagen/connective tissue • Vitamin C required for the hydroxylase • What disease results from vitamin C deficiency? 9 Posttranslational modification of proteins • Carboxylation of specific Glu residues on gamma (γγ) carbon • Enzyme: glutamate carboxylase γ-carboxyGlu (gla) • Required for function of several blood clotting enzymes • Involved in Ca2+ binding/ co-localization with platelets at wound sites • Vitamin K required for recycling active form of carboxylase) What would be the effect of a deficiency in Vitamin K? 10 Peptides/Primary Structure 5 BIOC 460 Summer 2010 Posttranslational modification of proteins • Phosphorylation of specific Ser (S), Thr (T), or Tyr (Y) residues by (enzymes): protein kinases (add PO32–) What type of bond links the phosphate to the Ser or Thr or Tyr side chain? Phospho-Ser Phospho-Tyr • Modification removed by (different enzymes): protein phosphatases (remove PO32–) 11 • Disulfide Bond Formation oxidation of cysteinyl residues) • covalent crosslinks between Cys residues • Oxidation (loss of 2 e–) makes diS bond. • Reduction (gain of 2 e–) breaks diS bond. Berg et al., Fig. 2.21 Peptides/Primary Structure 12 6 BIOC 460 Summer 2010 Properties of the peptide bond • Partial double bond character --> resonance structures – Consequences: •Planarity (6 coplanar atoms) •Rigidity (no free rotation) •Cis-trans isomers of peptide bond possible •Dihedral angles, Φ and Ψ 13 Planarity of Peptide bond • 6 coplanar atom animation: http://www.biochem.arizona.edu/classes/bioc462/462a/jmol/peptide/peptide.html Cα(n)–CO–NH–Cα(n+1) 14 Berg et al. Fig. 2-23 Peptides/Primary Structure 7 BIOC 460 Summer 2010 Peptide Bond: Cis-Trans Isomerization • Rigidity - no free rotation (partial d.b. character) α carbons on same (cis) or opposite (trans) sides of “double” bond (peptide bond) • Trans configuration highly favored (steric) 15 Berg et al., Fig. 2-24 Steric constraints favor trans config. • Dihedral angles, on either side of each α C • Planar units (from α C of one residue to α C of next residue) rotate around 2 bonds: Phi (Φ Φ ) (N–Cα) Psi (Ψ Ψ) (Cα–CO) http://www.biochem.arizona.edu/classes/bioc462/462a/NOTES/Protein_Structure/Rama_animationhtm.htm Peptides/Primary Structure 16 8 BIOC 460 Summer 2010 4 successive planar peptide groups bounded by the α carbons of 5 successive amino acid residues • Backbone of chain folds in 3 dimensions. • Each A.A. residue in 3-D structure of protein has its own (Φ,Ψ) coordinates around its αC, which determine orientation of that αC relative to preceding and following αC's. • About 3/4 of (Φ, Ψ) coordinates/combinations not allowed 17 (forbidden by steric constraints) Ramachandran diagram (φ φ vs ψ plot) Berg et al., Fig. 2-28 • Shaded to show allowed conformations for non-glycine residues • Allowed (Φ,Ψ Φ,Ψ) Φ,Ψ combinations depend on local sequence 18 (R groups) Peptides/Primary Structure 9 BIOC 460 Summer 2010 φ,ψ: φ,ψ What’s it all about? • Polypeptides are made from amino acids. • Each amino acid has a R-group. • Each R-group has its own chemical character (steric volume and shape, hydrophobicity, hydrophilicity, charge, etc.) • Adjacent R-groups interact with each other. • This interaction leads to the discrete φ,ψ ψ angles about each alpha carbon. • The collective effect of these φ,ψ angles gives rise to secondary structure:α-helix and β-conformation 19 Learning Objectives Terminology related to polypeptides: amino acid residue, backbone, side chains, disulfide bonds, conformation, configuration • Write the chemical equation for formation of a peptide bond. • Draw a peptide bond and describe its conformation (3dimensional arrangement of atoms). • Explain the relation between the N- and C-terminal residues of a peptide or protein and the numbering of the amino acid residues in the chain, and be able to draw a linear projection structure (like text Fig. 2.19) of a short peptide of any given sequence, using the convention for writing sequences left to right from amino to carboxy terminus. • Be able to estimate the approximate net charge on a short peptide at any given pH. (Concepts discussed in Lec. 3). • Explain how the partial double bond character of the peptide bond and steric effects relate to the conformation of a polypeptide chain, including whether peptide bonds in proteins are predominantly cis or trans. 20 Peptides/Primary Structure 10 BIOC 460 Summer 2010 Learning Objectives, continued • Explain the concept of a 6-atom planar peptide group (from one α-C to the next α-C), and how one plane can rotate relative to the next plane in a polypeptide backbone, around the φ and/or ψ angles. • Explain how rotation around φ and ψ is constrained and how that is related to a Ramachandran plot for the coordinates for proteins. 21 Peptides/Primary Structure 11
