Abstract
Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy is one of the most powerful experimental approaches for investigating the conformational behaviour of intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs). IDPs represent a significant fraction of all proteomes, and, despite their importance for understanding fundamental biological processes, the molecular basis of their activity still remains largely unknown. The functional mechanisms exploited by IDPs in their interactions with other biomolecules are defined by their intrinsic dynamic modes and associated timescales, justifying the considerable interest over recent years in the development of technologies adapted to measure and describe this behaviour. NMR spin relaxation delivers information-rich, site-specific data reporting on conformational fluctuations occurring throughout the molecule. Here we review recent progress in the use of 15N relaxation to identify local backbone dynamics and long-range chain-like motions in unfolded proteins.

Abstract
Historical collagen-based parchments have been studied by solid-state NMR. In addition, new parchment (produced according to traditional methods) and gelatin from bovine skin were also studied. Wideline 1H and MAS 13C measurements were carried out directly on intact parchments. A simple approach is proposed for evaluation of the extent of parchment degradation based on the linewidth changes in the 13C CPMAS spectra relative to new parchment and gelatin. Structural (bound) water content was estimated from wideline 1H NMR lineshape and relaxation time measurements. It was found that the relative water content in parchments correlates linearly with 13C MAS linewidths. Its decrease on parchment degradation indicates that structural water molecules are of primary importance in stabilizing higher order collagen structures. Backbone and side chain dynamics of collagen in parchments were compared to those of gelatin based on the 13C dipolar-dephased experiments. Carbonyl 13C chemical shift anisotropies were measured to deduce the geometry of the collagen backbone motion. Unlike previous studies, we found that the collagen backbone motion is similar to that found in other proteins and occurs primarily via small-angle librations about internal bond directions.

Abstract
Fibrillation of a human calcitonin mutant (hCT) at the position of Asp(15) (D15N-hCT) was examined to reveal the effect of the electrostatic interaction of Asp(15) with charged side chains. The secondary structures of fibrils and soluble monomers in the site-specific (13)C-labeled D15N-hCTs were determined using (13)C cross-polarization magic angle spinning and dipolar decoupled magic angle spinning NMR approaches, sensitive to detect (13)C signals from the fibril and the soluble monomer, respectively. The local conformations and structures of D15N-hCT fibrils at pH 7.5 and 3.2 were found to be similar to each other and those of hCT at pH 3.3 and were interpreted as a mixture of antiparallel and parallel beta-sheets, whereas they were different from the hCT fibril at pH 7.5 whose structure is proposed to be antiparallel beta-sheets. Thus the negatively charged Asp(15) in the hCT molecule turned out to play an essential role in determining the structures and orientations of the hCT molecules. Fibrillation kinetics of D15N-hCT was analyzed using a two-step autocatalytic reaction mechanism. The results indicated that the replacement of Asp(15) with Asn(15) did not reduce the rate constants of the fibril formation but rather increased the rate constants at neutral pH.

Abstract
We have recorded (13)C NMR spectra of selectively [3-(13)C]Ala-, [1-(13)C]Ala-, or [1-(13)C]Val-labeled synthetic transmembrane peptides of bacteriorhodopsin (bR) and enzymatically cleaved C-2 fragment in the solid and dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine bilayer. It turned out that these transmembrane peptides either in hexafluoroisopropanol or cast from it take an ordinary alpha-helix (alpha(I)-helix) irrespective of their amino acid sequences with reference to the conformation-dependent (13)C chemical shifts of (Ala)(n) taking the alpha-helix form. These transmembrane peptides are not always static in the lipid bilayer as in the solid state but undergo rigid-body motions with various frequencies as estimated from suppressed peaks either by fast isotropic or large-amplitude motions (>10(8) Hz) or intermediate frequencies (10(5) or 10(3) Hz). Further, (13)C chemical shifts of the [3-(13)C]Ala-labeled peptides in the bilayer were displaced downfield by 0.3-1.1 ppm depending upon amino acid sequence with respect to those in the solid state, which were explained in terms of local conformational fluctuation (10(2) Hz) deviated from the torsion angles (alpha(II)-helix) from those of standard alpha-helix, under anisotropic environment in lipid bilayer, in addition to the above-mentioned rigid-body motions. The carbonyl (13)C peaks, on the other hand, are not sensitively displaced by such local anisotropic fluctuations, because they are more sensitive to the manner of hydrogen-bond interactions. The amino acid sequences of these peptides inserted within the bilayer were not always the same as those of intact bR, causing disposition of the transmembrane alpha-helical segment from that of intact bR. Finally, we confirmed that the (13)C NMR peak positions of the random coil form are located at the boundary between the alpha-helix and a turned structure in loop regions.

Abstract
Protein S4, a component of the 30S subunit of the prokaryotic ribosome, is one of the first proteins to interact with rRNA in the process of ribosome assembly and is known to be involved in the regulation of this process. While the structure of the C-terminal 158 residues of Bacillus stearothermophilus S4 has been solved by both X-ray crystallography and NMR, that of the N-terminal 41 residues is unknown. Evidence suggests that the N-terminus is necessary both for the assembly of functional ribosomes and for full binding to 16S RNA, and so we present NMR data collected on the full-length protein (200 aa). Our data indicate that the addition of the N-terminal residues does not significantly change the structure of the C-terminal 158 residues. The data further indicate that the N-terminus is highly flexible in solution, without discernible secondary structure. Nevertheless, structure calculations based on nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopic data combined with (15)N relaxation data revealed that two short segments in the N-terminus, S(12)RRL(15) and P(30)YPP(33), adopt transiently ordered states in solution. The major conformation of S(12)RRL(15) appears to orient the arginine side chains outward toward the solvent in a parallel fashion, while that of P(30)YPP(33) forms a nascent turn of a polyproline II helix. These segments contain residues that are highly conserved across many prokaryotic species, and thus they are reasonable candidates respectively for sites of interaction with RNA and other ribosomal proteins within the intact ribosome.

Abstract
Conformational transitions of human calcitonin (hCT) during fibril formation in the acidic and neutral conditions were investigated by high-resolution solid-state 13C NMR spectroscopy. In aqueous acetic acid solution (pH 3.3), a local alpha-helical form is present around Gly10 whereas a random coil form is dominant as viewed from Phe22, Ala26, and Ala31 in the monomer form on the basis of the 13C chemical shifts. On the other hand, a local beta-sheet form as viewed from Gly10 and Phe22, and both beta-sheet and random coil as viewed from Ala26 and Ala31 were detected in the fibril at pH 3.3. The results indicate that conformational transitions from alpha-helix to beta-sheet, and from random coil to beta-sheet forms occurred in the central and C-terminus regions, respectively, during the fibril formation. The increased 13C resonance intensities of fibrils after a certain delay time suggests that the fibrillation can be explained by a two-step reaction mechanism in which the first step is a homogeneous association to form a nucleus, and the second step is an autocatalytic heterogeneous fibrillation. In contrast to the fibril at pH 3.3, the fibril at pH 7.5 formed a local beta-sheet conformation at the central region and exhibited a random coil at the C-terminus region. Not only a hydrophobic interaction among the amphiphilic alpha-helices, but also an electrostatic interaction between charged side chains can play an important role for the fibril formation at pH 7.5 and 3.3 acting as electrostatically favorable and unfavorable interactions, respectively. These results suggest that hCT fibrils are formed by stacking antiparallel beta-sheets at pH 7.5 and a mixture of antiparallel and parallel beta-sheets at pH 3.3.

Abstract
We have recorded 13C cross-polarization-magic angle spinning and dipolar decoupled-magic angle spinning NMR spectra of [1-13C]Val-labeled wild-type bacteriorhodopsin (bR), and the V49A, V199A, T46V, T46V/V49A, D96N, and D85N mutants, in order to study conformational changes of the backbone caused by site-directed mutations along the extracellular surface and the cytoplasmic half channel. On the basis of spectral changes in the V49A and V199A mutants, and upon specific cleavage by chymotrypsin, we assigned the three well-resolved 13C signals observed at 172.93, 172.00, and 171. 11 ppm to [1-13C]Val 69, Val 49, and Val 199, respectively. The local conformations of the backbone at these residues are revealed by the conformation-dependent 13C chemical shifts. We find that at the ambient temperature of these measurements Val 69 is not in a beta-sheet, in spite of previous observations by electron microscopy and x-ray diffraction at cryogenic temperatures, but in a flexible turn structure that undergoes conformational fluctuation. Results with the T46V mutant suggest that there is a long-distance effect on backbone conformation between Thr 46 and Val 49. From the spectra of the D85N and E204Q mutants there also appears to be coupling between Val 49 and Asp 85 and between Asp 85 and Glu 204, respectively. In addition, the T2 measurement indicates conformational interaction between Asp 96 and extracellular surface. The protonation of Asp 85 in the photocycle therefore might induce changes in conformation or dynamics, or both, throughout the protein, from the extracellular surface to the side chain of Asp 96.

Abstract
The high-affinity cation-binding sites of bacteriorhodopsin (bR) were examined by solid-state 13C NMR of samples labeled with [3-13C]Ala and [1-13C]Val. We found that the 13C NMR spectra of two kinds of blue membranes, deionized (pH 4) and acid blue at pH 1.2, were very similar and different from that of the native purple membrane. This suggested that when the surface pH is lowered, either by removal of cations or by lowering the bulk pH, substantial change is induced in the secondary structure of the protein. Partial replacement of the bound cations with Na+, Ca2+, or Mn2+ produced additional spectral changes in the 13C NMR spectra. The following conclusions were made. First, there are high-affinity cation-binding sites in both the extracellular and the cytoplasmic regions, presumably near the surface, and one of the preferred cation-binding sites is located at the loop between the helix F and G (F-G loop) near Ala196, consistent with the 3D structure of bR from x-ray diffraction and cryoelectron microscopy. Second, the bound cations undergo rather rapid exchange (with a lifetime shorter than 3 ms) among various types of cation-binding sites. As expected from the location of one of the binding sites, cation binding induced conformational alteration of the F-G interhelical loop.

Abstract
The conformation and internal dynamics of a bioactive cyclic peptide, N-acetyl-YCTDEKQCY, derived from the C-D loop of beta-nerve growth factor (beta-NGF) were analyzed by solution NMR spectroscopy. NMR experimental data were used to calculate an ensemble of peptide structures. All of the structures had a beta-turn at residues Asp4-Gln7 but could be divided into two families according the presence or absence of a hydrogen bond at Gln7. Comparison of the calculated structures with the corresponding C-D loops from the x-ray structures of the NGF revealed striking similarity. The orientation of Glu5, Lys6, and Gln7 side chains in the NGF mimetic was very similar to the C-D loop of NGF. These residues are known to participate in interactions with the TrkA receptor. Relaxation measurements of the peptidomimetic alpha-carbons at 13C natural abundance and calculated dynamic parameters suggest that the loop region of peptide is well structured but that residues Thr3, Asp4, Glu5, and Lys6 undergo slow conformational exchange. These results suggest that conformational similarity and possibly peptide dynamics are responsible for the bioactivity of the peptide.

Abstract
Homonuclear and heteronuclear 2D NMR methods are used to study two triple-helical peptides. One peptide, (POG)10, is considered to be the most stable prototype of a triple helix. The second peptide, (POG)3ITGARGLAGPOG(POG)3 (denoted T3-785), was designed to model an imino acid poor region of collagen and contains 12 residues from near the unique collagenase cleavage site in type III collagen. Both peptides associated as trimers, with melting temperatures of 60 degrees C for (POG)10 and 25 degrees C for the T3-785 peptide. Sequence-specific assignments were made for a tripeptide unit POG in (POG)10, and 80% of the POG triplets are found to be in an equivalent environment. In T3-785, with nonrepeating X-Y-Gly units incorporated in the sequence, the three chains of the homotrimer can be distinguished from one another by NMR. The solution conformation of (POG)10 is very similar to the model derived from X-ray fiber diffraction data, although the peptide contains less ordered regions at the peptide ends. In the trimer from of T3-785, the central residues of the three chains are closely packed, and the data are consistent with a triple-helical model with a one-residue stagger of three parallel chains. For T3-785, in contrast to (POG)10, there are also resonances from a less ordered form, which are probably due to the presence of a small amount of monomer. The similarity of the backbone conformations of T3-785 and (POG)10 suggests that an alternative conformation is not present in the imino acid poor region.

Abstract
1H and 13C high-resolution nmr spectra of cationic, zwitterionic, and anionic forms of the peptides: H-Trp-(Pro)n-Tyr-OH, n = 0-5, and H-Trp-Pro-OCH3 were obtained in D2O solution. Analysis of H alpha (Pro1), H alpha (Trp), C gamma (Pro), H epsilon (Tyr), and H delta (Trp) resonances provided evidence for the presence of two predominant backbone isomers: the all-trans one and another with the Trp-Pro peptide bond in cis conformation; the latter constituted about 0.8 molar fraction of the total peptide (n > 1) concentration. Relative content of these isomers varied in a characteristic way with the number of Pro residues and the ionization state of the peptides. The highest content of the cis (Trp-Pro) isomer, 0.74, was found in the anionic form of H-Trp-Pro-Tyr-OH; it decreased in the order of: anion >> zwitterion approximately cation, and with the number of Pro residues to reach the value of 0.42 in the cationic form of H-Trp-(Pro)5-Tyr-OH. Isomerization equilibria about Pro-Pro bond(s) were found to be shifted far (> or = 0.9) in favor of the trans conformation. Interpretation of the measured vicinal coupling constants J alpha-beta' and J alpha-beta" for C alpha H-C beta H2 proton systems of Trp and Tyr side chains in terms of relative populations of g+, g-, and t staggered rotamers around the chi 1 dihedral angle indicated that in all the peptides studied (a) rotation of Trp indole ring in cis (Trp-Pro) isomers is strongly restricted, and (b) rotation of Tyr phenol ring is relatively free. The most preferred chi 1 rotamer of Trp (0.8-0.9 molar fraction) was assigned as the t one on the basis of a large value of the vicinal coupling constant between the high-field H beta and carbonyl carbon atoms of Trp, estimated for the cis (Pro1) form of H-Trp-Pro-Tyr-OH from a 1H, 13C correlated spectroscopy 1H-detected multiple quantum experiment. This indicates that cis<-->trans equilibrium in the Trp-Pro fragment is governed by nonbonding interactions between the pyrrolidine (Pro) and indole (Trp) rings. A molecular model of the terminal cis Trp-Pro dipeptide fragment is proposed, based on the presented nmr data and the results of our molecular mechanics modeling of low-energy conformers of the peptides, reported elsewhere.

Abstract
The solution-state conformations of eight proline-containing peptide fragments found in human salivary proline-rich glycoprotein (PRG) were investigated in 2 x distilled water (treated with metal ion chelating resin) using 13C-nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy. The peptide sequences and acronyms were as follows: PRG9-2 = NH2-G(1)-P(2)-CONH2, PRG9-3 = NH2-G(1)P(2)-P(3)-CONH2, PRG9-4 = NH2-G(1)-P(2)-P(3)-P(4)-CONH2, PRG9-5 = NH2-G(1)-P(2)-P(3)-P(4)-H(5)-CONH2, PRG9-6 = NH2-G(1)-P(2)-P(3)-P(4)-H(5)-P(6)-CONH2, PRG9-7 = NH2-G(1)-P(2)-P(3)-P(4)-H(5)-P(6)-G(7)-CONH2, PRG9-8 = NH2-G(1)-P(2)-P(3)-P(4)-H(5)-P(6)-G(7)-K(8)-CONH2 and PRG9-9 = NH2-G(1)-P(2)-P(3)-P(4)-H(5)-P(6)-G(7)-K(8)-P(9)-CONH2. Sequence-specific resonance assignments from the 13C-NMR spectra indicated that the trans proline isomer dominated the conformations of the peptides. CD results clearly showed the presence of the poly-L-proline II helix as the major conformation in PRG9-3----PRG9-5, supplemented by beta- and/or gamma-turns in PRG9-6----PRG9-9. These data suggest that in "metal free" water, native PRG could contain several small poly-L-proline II helices along with beta- and/or gamma-turns. Since proline is the major amino acid present in native PRG, these localized conformations may contribute to PRG's global conformation and act as a primary force in determining its biological activities.

Abstract
Proline, noted as a hydrophilic residue with helix-breaking potential, nevertheless occurs widely in putatively alpha-helical transmembrane segments of many transport proteins. Ligand-activated or enzyme-assisted trans/cis isomerization of an X-proline peptide bond (where X = any amino acid)--a dynamic, reversible event which could alter the orientation of a transmembrane alpha-helix--may provide the molecular basis for a protein channel regulatory process. Further elucidation of such a function requires knowledge of the isomeric status of the X-Pro bonds in native conformations of membrane proteins. We have used 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy to examine the conformation of intramembranous X-Pro peptide bonds in biosynthetically-labelled samples of a model transport protein, bacteriorhodopsin (bR) (purple membrane). Spectra of 13C-Tyr-carbonyl labelled bR (in the solvent system CHCl3:CD3OD (1:1) + 0.1 M LiClO4) first established that all 11 bR Tyr residues were sufficiently mobile for their resonances to be detected and resolved, independent of their domain location within the bR sequence. By taking advantage of the known diagnostic chemical shifts of the isomers of Pro-C gamma carbon resonances, spectra of bR labelled with 13C gamma-Pro were then used to demonstrate that all 11 bR X-Pro peptide bonds--including those within the protein's membrane domain (Pro50, Pro91, Pro186)--are in the trans conformation in resting state bR.

Abstract
The role of the amino acid proline in influencing the secondary and tertiary structure of proteins and polypeptides has been an area of active study for many years. We have investigated this problem by incorporating the four-membered ring amino acid, azetidine-2-carboxylic acid, into some proline polypeptides. An adjunct to the synthesis of the peptides was the synthesis of azetidine-2-carboxylic acid and its resolution. We developed an improved synthesis of N-benzhydryl-2-carbobenzyloxy azetidine, an essential intermediate required for the synthesis of L-azetidine-2-carboxylic acid. This amino acid was subsequently obtained via the partial hydrogenation of the N-benzhydryl compound, under mild conditions. Our ability to isolate the intermediate N-benzhydryl-2-carboxylic acid demonstrated that the rate of cleavage of the O-benzyl ester group in this molecule is faster than the cleavage of the N-benzhydryl group. The tetrapeptides, Boc-(L-Pro)3-L-Aze-Opcp, and Boc-(L-Aze-L-Pro)2-Opcp (Boc: t-butoxycarbonyl; Pro: proline; Aze: azetidine-2-carboxyl acid; Opcp: pentachlorophenyl), were prepared using traditional solution peptide synthesis. They were characterized by direct chemical ionization-mass spectrometry, CD spectra, and 13C- and 1H-nmr spectroscopy. The assessment of the secondary structure of the two peptides using the methods noted above has led us to conclude that the compound Boc-(L-Aze-L-Pro)2-Opcp, in trifluoroethanol, has an all-cis peptide bond conformation with phi and psi torsion angles compatible with a left-handed helix. The secondary structure assessment of the peptide Boc-(L-Pro)3-L-Aze-Opcp, in chloroform or trifluoroethanol, leads to an assignment of both cis and trans peptide bonds as being present in the peptide. We have interpreted this latter finding as indicating that the introduction of the azetidine group into a peptide containing three consecutive proline residues in a linear sequence perturbs the normal proline peptide secondary structure in this tetrapeptide.

Abstract
The variation of the nuclear magnetic shielding constant of the different protons and carbons of trans HCO-L-Pro-NH2 with the value of the angle psi is calculated by a non-empirical method for three conformations of the proline ring. The results concerning the CH protons show that the chemical shift of the alpha, beta and gamma endo hydrogens can vary by more than 1 ppm when psi goes from -30 degrees to 180 degrees. The theoretical variation of the chemical shift difference between alpha and gamma or beta and gamma carbons is found to be sensitive to the puckering of the proline ring. For the second of these differences the theoretical results are in agreement with Siemion's relation only for a limited range of molecular conformations. Additional calculations show that the variations of the proton shifts with the value of psi are due to the magnetic anisotropy of the proline carbonyl group and to the polarization of the CH bonds by the multipolar charge distribution carried by this carbonyl. The results are discussed in relation to experiment and the possibility of using 1H and 13C chemical shifts for the determination of the value of the torsion angle about the C alpha C' bond.

Abstract
Amylose (average d.p. 1000) and amylodextrin (average d.p. 25) have identical 13C-n.m.r. spectra, except for some minor signals from the small amount of alpha-1----6 branch linkages present in amylodextrin. Amylodextrin can be obtained as stable solutions in much higher concentrations than amylose and so requires only 1/100th as many scans to obtain a spectrum comparable to that of amylose. 13C-N.m.r. spectroscopy has been used to study the formation of amylodextrin complexes with organic complexing agents in aqueous solution. A control study using dextran, which does not form helical complexes, showed that, when complexing agents are added, the signals from all of the carbons show a slight downfield shift due to a general solvent effect. In the case of amylodextrin, the addition of increasing concentrations of complexing agent also produced a downfield shift of the signals of all the carbons, but there was a greater shift of the signals for carbons 1 and 4 than for carbons 2, 3, and 6, indicating that something more than a solvent effect was occurring. The cycloamyloses (cyclic alpha-1----4 linked D-glucose oligosaccharides which may be considered as model for an amylose helix) in water have chemical shifts for carbons 1 and 4 that are comparable to those shown by the amylodextrin complexes. It is thus proposed that the formation of a helical complex with amylodextrin results in a change in the conformation of the glycosidic linkage, which is reflected by greater downfield shifts of the signals for carbons 1 and 4, relative to those for carbons 2, 3, and 6. It was observed that differences in the ratio of the downfield shifts of C-1 and C-4 of the different amylodextrin complexes indicate differences in the degree of compactness of the helical structures. A comparison of the 13C chemical shifts of methyl alpha-D-glucoside and methyl alpha-maltoside showed that, for a molecule as small as a disaccharide, there is a conformational change about the glycosidic linkage when complexing agents are added.

Abstract
Heretofore the complexity of natural abundance spectra has precluded the use of 13C NMR to detect cis peptide bonds in proteins. We have incorporated [4-13C]proline into chicken calvaria collagen and report here well-resolved C gamma signals, arising from cis and trans X-Pro and X-Hyp peptide bonds (where X is any amino acid residue) in the 13C NMR spectrum of the thermally unfolded protein. Measurement of 13C signal areas shows that 16% of the X-Pro and 8% of X-Hyp bonds are cis in the unfolded collagen. These results strongly support the conclusion drawn from kinetic studies that cis-trans isomerization of peptide bonds is the rate-limiting step in helix propagation after nucleation. Our method can be applied to other proteins as well and should aid in testing the generality of the hypothesis of Brandts, Halvorson, and Brennan that cis-trans isomerization is the rate-limiting step in protein folding when proline is present.

Abstract
A method was developed in the framework of a bistable jump model to obtain the pyrrolidine ring conformations in proline peptides from 13C spin-lattice relaxation times. Equations are presented expressing the ring torsions in terms of the 13C spin-lattice relaxation times of the ring carbons. This method was applied to 26 pyrrolidine ring systems and acceptable conformations were obtained.

Abstract
The nuclear Overhauser effect (NOE) leads to changes in the intensity of signal(s) of a set of nuclei as a function of their respective distances. The use of NOE allows to obtain structural informations on peptides and proteins in solution as well as the study of interactions between small ligands and biomolecules. In this review, aspects of the basic theory of the NOE will be presented and the more recent applications of homonuclear and heteronuclear NOE's in biomolecules will be surveyed. Typical examples will be illustrated and limitations of the method will be discussed.

Abstract
13C nuclear magnetic resonance has been used to characterize quantitatively the cis-trans isomerism about both peptide bonds in the tripeptides Ser-Pro-Pro and Arg-Pro-Pro. Detailed pH titration data indicate that the configuration about both peptide bonds is closely linked to titration of the terminal carboxyl group and, to a lesser extent, to titration of the terminal amino group. The Pro2 C-3 resonance has been found particularly useful for interpretation due to its sensitivity to the isomerization about both peptide bonds. Analysis of the probabilities of the trans-trans, cic-cis, cis-trans, and trans-cis isomers in aqueous solution indicates a stability decrease in the order given. Similarities in the isomerization behavior of the two peptides indicate that side chain interactions involving the first residue have very little effect on the observed cis/trans ratios. The sensitivity of the cis/trans ratio to titration of the terminal amino group is most readily explained on the basis of an indirect effect on carbonyl-carbonyl repulsion.
