Abstract
Anthropogenic activities in agriculture and health use the antimicrobial properties of copper. This has led to copper accumulation in the environment and contributed to the emergence of copper resistant microorganisms. Understanding bacterial copper homeostasis diversity is therefore highly relevant since it could provide valuable targets for novel antimicrobial treatments. The periplasmic CopI protein is a monodomain cupredoxin comprising several copper binding sites and is directly involved in copper resistance in bacteria. However, its structure and mechanism of action are yet to be determined. To study the different binding sites for cupric and cuprous ions and to understand their possible interactions, we have used mutants of the putative copper binding modules of CopI and spectroscopic methods to characterize their properties. We show that CopI is able to bind a cuprous ion in its central histidine/methionine-rich region and oxidize it thanks to its cupredoxin center. The resulting cupric ion can bind to a third site at the N-terminus of the protein. Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy revealed that the central histidine/methionine-rich region exhibits a dynamic behavior and interacts with the cupredoxin binding region. CopI is therefore likely to participate in copper resistance by detoxifying the cuprous ions from the periplasm.

Abstract
Five new copper(I) complexes─composed of the paired dibenzohalolium and [CuL2]- (L = 1,2,4-oxadiazolate) counterions in which O,O-atoms of the anion are simultaneously linked to the halogen atom─were generated and isolated as the solid via the three-component reaction between [Cu(MeCN)4](BF4), sodium 1,2,4-oxadiazolates, and dibenzohalolium triflates (or trifluoroacetates). This reaction is different from the previously reported CuI-catalyzed arylation of 1,2,4-oxadiazolones by diaryliodonium salts. Inspection of the solid-state X-ray structures of the complexes revealed the strong three-center X···O,O (X = Br, I) halogen bonding occurred between the oxadiazolate moieties and dibenzohalolium cation. According to performed theoretical calculations, this noncovalent interaction (or noncovalent chelation) was recognized as the main force in the stabilization of the copper(I) complexes. An explanation for the different behavior of complexes, which provide either chelate or nonchelate binding, is based on the occurrence of additional -CH3···π interactions, which were also quantified.

Abstract
Oxytocin is a neuropeptide that binds copper ions in nature. The structure of oxytocin in interaction with Cu2+ was determined here by NMR, showing which atoms of the peptide are involved in binding. Paramagnetic relaxation enhancement NMR analyses indicated a binding mechanism where the amino terminus was required for binding and subsequently Tyr2, Ile3 and Gln4 bound in that order. The aromatic ring of Tyr2 formed a π-cation interaction with Cu2+. Oxytocin copper complex structure revealed by paramagnetic relaxation enhancement NMR analyses.

Abstract
Type 1 copper (T1Cu) proteins are electron transfer (ET) proteins involved in many important biological processes. While the effects of changing primary and secondary coordination spheres in the T1Cu ET function have been extensively studied, few report has explored the effect of the overall protein structural perturbation on active site configuration or reduction potential of the protein, even though the protein scaffold has been proposed to play a critical role in enforcing the entatic or "rack-induced" state for ET functions. We herein report circular permutation of azurin by linking the N- and C-termini and creating new termini in the loops between 1st and 2nd β strands or between 3rd and 4th β strands. Characterization by electronic absorption, electron paramagnetic spectroscopies, as well as crystallography and cyclic voltammetry revealed that, while the overall structure and the primary coordination sphere of the circular permutated azurins remain the same as those of native azurin, their reduction potentials increased by 18 and 124 mV over that of WTAz. Such increases in reduction potentials can be attributed to subtle differences in the hydrogen-bonding network in secondary coordination sphere around the T1Cu center.

Abstract
Determination of three-dimensional structures of biological macromolecules by magic-angle spinning (MAS) solid-state NMR spectroscopy is hindered by the paucity of nuclear dipolar coupling-based restraints corresponding to distances exceeding 5 Å. Recent MAS NMR studies of uniformly (13)C,(15)N-enriched proteins containing paramagnetic centers have demonstrated the measurements of site-specific nuclear pseudocontact shifts and spin relaxation enhancements, which report on electron-nucleus distances up to ~20 Å. These studies pave the way for the application of such long-distance paramagnetic restraints to protein structure elucidation and analysis of protein-protein and protein-ligand interactions in the solid phase. Paramagnetic species also facilitate the rapid acquisition of high resolution and sensitivity multidimensional solid-state NMR spectra of biomacromolecules using condensed data collection schemes, and characterization of solvent-accessible surfaces of peptides and proteins. In this review we discuss some of the latest applications of magic-angle spinning NMR spectroscopy in conjunction with paramagnetic probes to the structural studies of proteins in the solid state.

Abstract
Copper is reported to promote and prevent aggregation of prion protein. Conformational and functional consequences of Cu(2+)-binding to prion protein (PrP) are not well understood largely because most of the Cu(2+)-binding studies have been performed on fragments and truncated variants of the prion protein. In this context, we set out to investigate the conformational consequences of Cu(2+)-binding to full-length prion protein (PrP) by isothermal calorimetry, NMR, and small angle x-ray scattering. In this study, we report altered aggregation behavior of full-length PrP upon binding to Cu(2+). At physiological temperature, Cu(2+) did not promote aggregation suggesting that Cu(2+) may not play a role in the aggregation of PrP at physiological temperature (37 °C). However, Cu(2+)-bound PrP aggregated at lower temperatures. This temperature-dependent process is reversible. Our results show two novel intra-protein interactions upon Cu(2+)-binding. The N-terminal region (residues 90-120 that contain the site His-96/His-111) becomes proximal to helix-1 (residues 144-147) and its nearby loop region (residues 139-143), which may be important in preventing amyloid fibril formation in the presence of Cu(2+). In addition, we observed another novel interaction between the N-terminal region comprising the octapeptide repeats (residues 60-91) and helix-2 (residues 174-185) of PrP. Small angle x-ray scattering studies of full-length PrP show significant compactness upon Cu(2+)-binding. Our results demonstrate novel long range inter-domain interactions of the N- and C-terminal regions of PrP upon Cu(2+)-binding, which might have physiological significance.

Abstract
Fet3p from Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a multicopper oxidase (MCO) which oxidizes Fe(2+) to Fe(3+). The electronic structure of the different copper centers in this family of enzymes has been extensively studied and discussed for years with a particular focus on the exchange coupling regime in the trinuclear cluster (TNC). Using NMR spectroscopy we have quantified the exchange coupling constant in the type 3 center in a fully metalated oxidase; this value in Fet3p is significantly higher than that reported for proteins containing isolated type 3 centers as tyrosinase. We also provide evidence of exchange coupling between the type 2 and the type 3 Cu(2+) ions, which supports the crystallographic evidence of dioxygen binding to the TNC. This work provides the foundation for the application of NMR to these complex systems.

Abstract
Due to their dynamic ensemble nature and a deficiency of experimental restraints, disordered states of proteins are difficult to characterize structurally. Here, we have expanded upon our previous work on the unfolded state of the Drosophila drk N-terminal (drkN) SH3 domain with our program ENSEMBLE, which assigns population weights to pregenerated conformers in order to calculate ensembles of structures whose properties are collectively consistent with experimental measurements. The experimental restraint set has been enlarged with newly measured paramagnetic relaxation enhancements from Cu(2+) bound to an amino terminal Cu(2+)-Ni(2+) binding (ATCUN) motif as well as nuclear Overhauser effect (NOE) and hydrogen exchange data from recent studies. In addition, two new pseudo-energy minimization algorithms have been implemented that have dramatically improved the speed of ENSEMBLE population weight assignment. Finally, we have greatly improved our conformational sampling by utilizing a variety of techniques to generate both random structures and structures that are biased to contain elements of native-like or non-native structure. Although it is not possible to uniquely define a representative structural ensemble, we have been able to assess various properties of the drkN SH3 domain unfolded state by performing ENSEMBLE minimizations of different conformer pools. Specifically, we have found that the experimental restraint set enforces a compact structural distribution that is not consistent with an overall native-like topology but shows preference for local non-native structure in the regions corresponding to the diverging turn and the beta5 strand of the folded state and for local native-like structure in the region corresponding to the beta6 and beta7 strands. We suggest that this approach could be generally useful for the structural characterization of disordered states.

Abstract
The thermodynamic parameters for reduction of the type-1 (T1) copper site in Rhus vernicifera and Trametes versicolor laccases and for the derivative of the former protein from which the type-2 copper has been selectively removed (T2D) have been determined with UV-vis spectroelectrochemistry. In all cases, the enthalpic term turns out to be the main determinant of the Eo' of the T1 site. Also the difference between the reduction potentials of the two laccases is enthalpy-based and reflects differences in the coordination features of the T1 sites and their protein environment. The T1 sites in native R. vernicifera laccase and its T2D derivative show the same Eo', as a result of compensatory differences in the reduction thermodynamics. This suggests that removal of the type-2 (T2) copper results in modification of the reduction-induced solvent reorganization effects, with no influence in the structure of the multicopper protein site. This conclusion is supported by NMR data recorded on the native, the T2D, and Hg-substituted T1 derivatives of R. vernicifera laccase, which show that the T1 and T2/T3 sites are largely noninteracting.

Abstract
We present and test two methods to use quantum chemical calculations to improve standard protein structure refinement by molecular dynamics simulations restrained to experimental NMR data. In the first, we replace the molecular mechanics force field (employed in standard refinement to supplement experimental data) for a site of interest by quantum chemical calculations. This way, we obtain an accurate description of the site, even if a molecular-mechanics force field does not exist for this site, or if there is little experimental information about the site. Moreover, the site may change its bonding during the refinement, which often is the case for metal sites. The second method is to extract a molecular mechanics potential for the site of interest from a quantum chemical geometry optimisation and frequency calculation. We apply both methods to the two Ca2+ sites in the epidermal growth factor-like domains 3 and 4 in the vitamin K-dependent protein S and compare them to various methods to treat these sites in standard refinement. We show that both methods perform well and have their advantages and disadvantages. We also show that the glutamate Ca2+ ligand is unlikely to bind in a bidentate mode, in contrast to the crystal structure of an EGF domain of factor IX.

Abstract
The introduction of copper chelates into peptide mimetics creates the Src SH2 binding ligands and paramagnetic complexes suitable for EPR studies of peptide protein interactions. The dipicolinic acid was attached to SH2 domain targeting fragments by two different linkers.
