Abstract
Here, we report a previously undescribed approach for controlling metal ion coordination geometry in biomolecules by reorientating amino acid side chains through substitution of L- to D-amino acids. These diastereopeptides allow us to manipulate the spatial orientation of amino acid side chains to alter the sterics of metal binding pockets. We have used this approach to design the de novo metallopeptide, Cd(TRIL12L(D)L16C)(3)(-), which is an example of Cd(II) bound to 3 L-Cys as exclusively trigonal CdS(3), as characterized by a combination of (113)Cd NMR and (111m)Cd PAC spectroscopy. We subsequently show that the physical properties of such a site, such as the high pK(a2) for Cd(II) binding of 15.1, is due to the nature of the coordination number and not the ligating group. Further more this approach allowed for the design of a construct, GRANDL12L(D)L16CL26AL30C, capable of independently binding 2 equivalents of Cd(II) to 2 very similar Cys sites as exclusively 3- and 4-, CdS(3) and CdS(3)O, respectively. Demonstrating that we are capable of controlling the Cd(II) coordination number in these 2 sites solely by varying the nature of a noncoordinating second coordination sphere amino acid, with D-leucine and L-alanine resulting in exclusively 3- and 4-coordinate structures, respectively. Cd(II) was found to selectively bind to the 4-coordinate CdS(3)O site, demonstrating that a protein can be designed that displays metal-binding selectivity based solely on coordination number control and not on the chemical identity of coordinating ligands.

Abstract
We have synthesised and characterised a series of new Co(II) complexes (1-4, 6, 7) and one new Zn(II) complex (5) employing N(3)- and N(3)O-donor ligands [biap: N,N-bis(2-ethyl-5-methyl-imidazol-4-ylmethyl)amino-propane, KBPZG: potassium N,N-bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazolylmethyl) glycinate, KBPZA: potassium N,N-bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazolylmethyl) alaninate, KB(i)PrPZG: potassium N,N-bis(3,5-di-iso-propylpyrazolylmethyl) glycinate, and KB((t)BuM)PZG: potassium N,N-bis(3-methyl-5-tert-butyl-pyrazolylmethyl)glycinate] as structural models of the metalloenzyme alpha-amino-beta-carboxymuconic-epsilon-semialdehyde decarboxylase (ACMSD). These complexes were characterised by several techniques including X-ray crystallographic analysis, X-band EPR, and mass spectrometry (ESI-MS). The crystal structures of 1, 2, 6,7 revealed that they exist as mononuclear Co(II) complexes with trigonal-bipyramidal geometry in the solid state. Compounds 3 and 5 form infinite polymeric chains of Co(II) or Zn(II) complexes, respectively, linked by the pendant carboxylate arms of the BPZG(-) ligand. By comparing the degree of distortion in the penta-coordinate complexes, defined by the Addison-parameter tau, with the value determined for the five-coordinate centres found in the active site of ACMSD, it could be seen that complexes 5 and 7 are very good matches for the geometry of the zinc(II) centre in monomer A of the native enzyme. All complexes could be seen as model compounds for the active site of the enzyme ACMSD, where the Co(II) complexes reflected the structural flexibility found in case of two histidine (His177 and His228) residues found in the active site of the enzyme.

Abstract
Significant progress in the understanding of biological water oxidation has occurred during the past 25 years. Today we have a somewhat clearer description of the structure of the Mn4Ca cluster and an idea of the appropriate oxidation states for the enzyme during catalysis. At issue is the mechanism of water oxidation. Depending on one's belief of the manganese ion oxidation levels at the catalytically active S4 configuration, one can invoke a variety of different processes that could lead to water oxidation. We have suggested that the most likely process is the nucleophilic attack of a water bound to calcium (or manganese) onto a highly electrophilic Mn(V)=O center. In this Article, we explore the difficulties of preparing Mn(V) in dimeric systems and the even more arduous task of definitively assigning oxidation states to such highly reactive species.

Abstract
The molecular oxygen produced in photosynthesis is generated via water oxidation at a manganese-calcium cluster called the oxygen-evolving complex (OEC). While studies in biophysics, biochemistry, and structural and molecular biology are well known to provide deeper insight into the structure and workings of this system, it is often less appreciated that biomimetic modelling provides the foundation for interpreting photosynthetic reactions. The synthesis and characterization of small model complexes, which either mimic structural features of the OEC or are capable of providing insight into the mechanism of O2 evolution, have become a vital contributor to this scientific field. Our group has contributed to these findings in recent years through synthesis of model complexes, spectroscopic characterization of these systems and probing the reactivity in the context of water oxidation. In this article we describe how models have made significant contributions ranging from understanding the structure of the water-oxidation centre (e.g. contributions to defining a tetrameric Mn3Ca-cluster with a dangler Mn) to the ability to discriminate between different mechanistic proposals (e.g. showing that the Babcock scheme for water oxidation is unlikely).

Abstract
In view of the biological and commercial interest in models for Oxalate Decarboxylases (OxDC) and Oxalate Oxidases (OxOx), we have synthesized and characterized three new Mn (II) complexes ( 1- 3) employing N3O-donor amino-carboxylate ligands (TCMA, 1,4,7-triazacyclononane- N-acetic acid; K (i) Pr 2TCMA, potassium 1,4-diisopropyl-1,4,7-triazacyclononane- N-acetate; and KBPZG, potassium N,N-bis(3,5-dimethylpyrazolyl methyl)glycinate). These complexes were characterized by several techniques including X-ray crystallographic analysis, X-band electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR), electrospray ionization mass spectrometry (ESI-MS), and cyclic voltammetry. The crystal structures of 1 and 3 revealed that both form infinite polymeric chains of Mn (II) complexes linked by the pendant carboxylate arms of the TCMA (-) and the BPZG (-) ligands in a syn-antipattern. Complex 2 crystallizes as a mononuclear Mn (II) cation, six-coordinate in a distorted octahedral geometry. Although complexes 1 and 3 crystallize as polymeric chains, all compounds present the same N3O-donor set atoms around the metal center as observed in the crystallographically characterized OxDC and OxOx. Moreover, complex 2 also contains two water molecules coordinated to the Mn center as observed in the active site of OxDC and OxOx. ESI-MS spectrometry, combined with EPR, were useful techniques to establish that complexes 1- 3 are present as mononuclear Mn (II) species in solution. Finally, complexes 1- 3 are able to model the resting state active sites, with special attention focused on complex 2 which provides the first exact first coordination sphere ligand structural model for the resting states of both OxDC and OxOx.

Abstract
Recent advances in the study of the Oxygen Evolving Complex (OEC) of Photosystem II (PSII) include structural information attained from several X-ray crystallographic (XRD) and spectroscopic (XANES and EXAFS) investigations. The possible structural features gleaned from these studies have enabled synthetic chemists to design more accurate model complexes, which in turn, offer better insight into the possible pathways used by PSII to drive photosynthetic water oxidation catalysis. Mononuclear model compounds have been used to advance the knowledge base regarding the physical properties and reactivity of high-valent (Mn(IV) or Mn(V)) complexes. Such investigations have been especially important in regard to the manganyl (Mn(IV)=O or Mn(V)≡O) species, as there are no reports, to date, of any structural characterized multinuclear model compounds that incorporate such a functionality. Dinuclear and trinuclear model compounds have also been thoroughly studied in attempts to draw further comparison to the physical properties observed in the natural system and to design systems of catalytic relevance. As the reactive center of the OEC has been shown to contain an oxo-Mn(4)Ca cluster, exact structural models necessitate a tetranuclear Mn core. The number of models that make use of Mn(4) clusters has risen substantially in recent years, and these models have provided evidence to support and refute certain mechanistic proposals. Further work is needed to adequately address the rationale for Ca (and Cl) in the OEC and to determine the sequence of events that lead to O(2) evolution.

Abstract
The use of de novo designed peptides is a powerful strategy to elucidate Hg(II)-protein interactions and to gain insight into the chemistry of Hg(II) in biological systems. Cysteine derivatives of the designed alpha-helical peptides of the TRI family [Ac-G-(L(a)K(b)A(c)L(d)E(e)E(f)K(g))(4)-G-NH(2)] bind Hg(II) at high pH values and at peptide/Hg(II) ratios of 3:1 with an unusual trigonal thiolate coordination mode. The resulting Hg(II) complexes are good water-soluble models for Hg(II) binding to the protein MerR. We have carried out a parallel study using (199)Hg NMR and (199m)Hg perturbed angular correlation (PAC) spectroscopy to characterize the distinct species that are generated under different pH conditions and peptide TRI L9C/Hg(II) ratios. These studies prove for the first time the formation of [Hg{(TRI L9C)(2)-(TRI L9C-H)}], a dithiolate-Hg(II) complex in the hydrophobic interior of the three-stranded coiled coil (TRI L9C)(3). (199)Hg NMR and (199m)Hg PAC data demonstrate that this dithiolate-Hg(II) complex is different from the dithiolate [Hg(TRI L9C)(2)], and that the presence of third alpha-helix, containing a protonated cysteine, breaks the symmetry of the coordination environment present in the complex [Hg(TRI L9C)(2)]. As the pH is raised, the deprotonation of this third cysteine generates the trigonal thiolate-Hg(II) complex Hg(TRI L9C)(3)(-) on a timescale that is slower than the NMR timescale (0.01-10 ms). The formation of the species [Hg{(TRI L9C)(2)(TRI L9C-H)}] is the result of a compromise between the high affinity of Hg(II) to form dithiolate complexes and the preference of the peptide to form a three-stranded coiled coil.

Abstract
Arsenic, a contaminant of water supplies worldwide, is one of the most toxic inorganic ions. Despite arsenic's health impact, there is relatively little structural detail known about its interactions with proteins. Bacteria such as Escherichia coli have evolved arsenic resistance using the Ars operon that is regulated by ArsR, a repressor protein that dissociates from DNA when As(III) binds. This protein undergoes a critical conformational change upon binding As(III) with three cysteine residues. Unfortunately, structures of ArsR with or without As(III) have not been reported. Alternatively, de novo designed peptides can bind As(III) in an endo configuration within a thiolate-rich environment consistent with that proposed for both ArsR and ArsD. We report the structure of the As(III) complex of Coil Ser L9C to a 1.8-A resolution, providing x-ray characterization of As(III) in a Tris thiolate protein environment and allowing a structural basis by which to understand arsenated ArsR.

Abstract
De novo design of alpha-helical peptides that self-assemble to form helical coiled coils is a powerful tool for studying molecular recognition between peptides/proteins and determining the fundamental forces involved in their folding and structure. These amphipathic helices assemble in aqueous solution to generate the final coiled coil motif, with the hydrophobic residues in the interior and the polar/hydrophilic groups on the exterior. Considerable effort has been devoted to investigate the forces that determine the overall stability and final three-dimensional structure of the coiled coils. One of the major challenges in coiled coil design is the achievement of specificity in terms of the oligomeric state, with respect to number (two, three, four, or higher), nature (homomers vs heteromers), and strand orientation (parallel vs antiparallel). As seen in nature, metal ions play an important role in this self-organization process, and the overall structure of metalloproteins is primarily the result of two driving forces: the metal coordination preference and the fold of the polypeptide backbone. Previous work in our group has shown that metal ions such as As(III) and Hg(II) can be used to enforce different aggregation states in the Cys derivatives of the designed homotrimeric coiled-coil TRI family [Ac-G(LKALEEK)4G-CONH2]. We are now interested in studying the interplay between the metal ion and peptide preferences in controlling the specificity and relative orientation of the alpha-helices in coiled coils. For this objective, two derivatives of the TRI family, TRi L2WL9C and TRi L2WL23C, have been synthesized. Along with those two peptides, two derivatives of Coil-Ser, CSL9C and CSL19C (CS = Ac-EWEALEKKLAALESKLQALEKKLEALEHG-CONH2), a similar de novo designed three-stranded coiled coil that has the potential to form antiparallel coiled coils, have also been used. Circular dichroism, UV-vis, and 199Hg and 113Cd NMR spectroscopy results reveal that the addition of Hg(II) and Cd(II) to the different mixtures of these peptides forms preferentially homotrimeric coiled coils, over a statistical population of heterotrimeric parallel and antiparallel coiled coils.
