Abstract
PER1 and PER2 are among the class A β-lactamase enzymes, which have evolved clinically to form antibiotic resistance and have significantly expanded their spectrum of activity. Hence, there is a need to study the clinical mutation responsible for such β-lactamase mediated antibiotic resistance. Alterations in catalytic centre and Ω-loop structure could be the cause of antibiotic resistance in these β-lactamase enzymes. Structural and functional alterations are caused due to mutations on or near the catalytic centre, which results in active site plasticity and are responsible for its expanded spectrum of activity in these class A β-lactamase enzymes. Multiple sequence alignment, structure, kinetic, molecular docking, MMGBSA and molecular dynamic simulation comparisons were done on 38 clinically mutated and wild class A β-lactamase enzymes. This work shows that PER1 and PER2 enzymes contains most unique mutations and have altered Ω-loop structure, which could be responsible for altering the structure-activity relationship and extending the spectrum of activity of these enzymes. Alterations in molecular docking, MMGBSA, kinetic values reveals the modification in the binding and activity of these clinically mutated enzymes with antibiotics. Further, the cause of these alterations can be revealed by active site interactions and H-bonding pattern of these enzymes with antibiotics. Met69Gln, Glu104Thr, Tyr105Trp, Met129His, Pro167Ala, Glu168Gln, Asn170His, Ile173Asp and Asp176Gln mutations were uniquely found in PER1 and PER2 enzymes. These mutations occurs at catalytic important residues and results in altered interactions with β-lactam antibiotics. Hence, these mutations could be responsible for altering the structure-activity of PER1 and PER2 enzymes.

Abstract
Rhodopseudomonas palustris cytochrome c', a four-helix bundle, and the second ubiquitin-associated domain, UBA(2), a three-helix bundle from the human homologue of yeast Rad23, HHR23A, deviate from random coil behavior under denaturing conditions in a fold-specific manner. The random coil deviations in each of these folds occur near interhelical turns and loops in their tertiary structures. Here, we examine an additional three-helix bundle with an identical fold to UBA(2), but a highly divergent sequence, the first ubiquitin-associated domain, UBA(1), of HHR23A. We use histidine-heme loop formation methods, employing eight single histidine variants, to probe for denatured state conformational bias of a UBA(1) domain fused to the N-terminus of iso-1-cytochrome c (iso-1-Cytc). Guanidine hydrochloride (GuHCl) denaturation shows that the iso-1-Cytc domain unfolds first, followed by the UBA(1) domain. Denatured state (4 and 6 M GuHCl) histidine-heme loop formation studies show that as the size of the histidine-heme loop increases, loop stability decreases, as expected for the Jacobson-Stockmayer relationship. However, loops formed with His35, His31, and His15, of UBA(1), are 0.6-1.1 kcal/mol more stable than expected from the Jacobson-Stockmayer relationship, confirming the importance of deviations of the denatured state from random coil behavior near interhelical turns of helical domains for facilitating folding to the correct topology. For UBA(1) and UBA(2), hydrophobic clusters on either side of the turns partially explain deviations from random coil behavior; however, helix capping also appears to be important.

Abstract
Previous work with the four-helix-bundle protein cytochrome c' from Rhodopseudomonas palustris using histidine-heme loop formation methods revealed fold-specific deviations from random coil behavior in its denatured state ensemble. To examine the generality of this finding, we extend this work to a three-helix-bundle polypeptide, the second ubiquitin-associated domain, UBA(2), of the human DNA excision repair protein. We use yeast iso-1-cytochrome c as a scaffold, fusing the UBA(2) domain at the N-terminus of iso-1-cytochrome c. We have engineered histidine into highly solvent accessible positions of UBA(2), creating six single histidine variants. Guanidine hydrochloride denaturation studies show that the UBA(2)-cytochrome c fusion protein unfolds in a three-state process with iso-1-cytochrome c unfolding first. Furthermore, engineered histidine residues in UBA(2) strongly destabilize the iso-1-cytochrome c domain. Equilibrium and kinetic histidine-heme loop formation measurements in the denatured state at 4 and 6 M guanidine hydrochloride show that loop stability decreases as the size of the histidine-heme loop increases, in accord with the Jacobson-Stockmayer equation. However, we observe that the His27-heme loop is both more stable than expected from the Jacobson-Stockmayer relationship and breaks more slowly than expected. These results show that the sequence near His27, which is in the reverse turn between helices 2 and 3 of UBA(2), is prone to persistent interactions in the denatured state. Therefore, consistent with our results for cytochrome c', this reverse turn sequence may help to establish the topology of this fold by biasing the conformational distribution of the denatured state.

Abstract
There is considerable evidence that long-range interactions stabilize residual protein structure under denaturing conditions. However, evaluation of the effect of a specific contact on structure in the denatured state has been difficult. Iso-1-cytochrome c variants with a Lys54 → His mutation form a particularly stable His-heme loop in the denatured state, suggestive of loop-induced residual structure. We have used multidimensional nuclear magnetic resonance methods to assign 1H and 15N backbone amide and 13C backbone and side chain chemical shifts in the denatured state of iso-1-cytochrome c carrying the Lys54 → His mutation in 3 and 6 M guanidine hydrochloride and at both pH 6.4, where the His54-heme loop is formed, and pH 3.6, where the His54-heme loop is broken. Using the secondary structure propensity score, with the 6 M guanidine hydrochloride chemical shift data as a random coil reference state for data collected in 3 M guanidine hydrochloride, we found residual helical structure in the denatured state for the 60s helix and the C-terminal helix, but not in the N-terminal helix in the presence or absence of the His54-heme loop. Non-native helical structure is observed in two regions that form Ω-loops in the native state. There is more residual helical structure in the C-terminal helix at pH 6.4 when the loop is formed. Loop formation also appears to stabilize helical structure near His54, consistent with induction of helical structure observed when His-heme bonds form in heme-peptide model systems. The results are discussed in the context of the folding mechanism of cytochrome c.

Abstract
Two sets of iso-1-cytochrome c variants have been prepared with N-terminal insertions of pure polyglutamine, i.e., PolyQ variants, or polyglutamine interrupted with lysine every sixth residue, i.e., Gln-rich variants. The polymer properties of these pure polyGln or Gln-rich sequences have been evaluated using equilibrium and kinetic His-heme loop formation methods for loop sizes ranging from 22 to 46 in 1.5, 3.0, and 6.0 M guanidine hydrochloride (GdnHCl). In 6.0 M GdnHCl, the scaling exponent, ν(3), for the pure polyGln sequences, is ~1.7--significantly less than ν(3) ≈ 2.15 for the Gln-rich sequences. The stability of the His-heme loops becomes progressively greater for the pure polyGln sequences relative to the Gln-rich sequences as GdnHCl concentration decreases from 6.0 to 1.5 M. Thus, the context of the sequence effects the polymer properties of Gln repeats even in denaturing concentrations of GdnHCl. Comparison of data for the Gln-rich variants with previous results for Gly-rich and Ala-rich variants shows that ν(3) ~ 2.2 for the Gln-rich, Gly-rich, and Ala-rich sequences in 6.0 M GdnHCl, whereas ν(3) remains unchanged at 3.0 M GdnHCl concentration for the Gln-rich and Ala-rich sequences but decreases to ~1.7 for the Gly-rich sequences. Thus, the polymer properties of Gln-rich and Ala-rich sequences are less sensitive to solvent quality in denaturing solutions of GdnHCl than Gly-rich sequences. Evaluation of Flory's characteristic ratio, C(n), for the Gln-rich and Ala-rich sequences relative to the Gly-rich sequences shows that Gln-rich sequences are stiffer than Ala-rich sequences at both 3.0 and 6.0 M GdnHCl.
