SeviL forms a dimer in solution, with one binding site per subunit, close to the subunit interface. Molecular details of glycan recognition by SeviL in solution were analysed by ligand- and protein-based NMR techniques as well as ligand binding assays. SeviL shows no interaction with GM1 due to steric hindrance with the sialic acid branch that is absent from GM1b. This unusual specificity makes SeviL of great interest for the detection and control of certain cancer cells, and cells of the immune system, that display asialo-GM1.

Abstract
A concise discussion of the role of different geometrical conformational states in the process of self-assembling of gangliosides is given. The report focuses on the effects of the geometrical variations occurring in the head group region of gangliosides as reflected on the geometrical properties of the whole assembly. Collective phenomena happening at the water interfacial region are found to be coupled to the phase transition of the lipid moiety, that is, to the well-known order-disorder conformational transition involving the hydrophobic tails. The possible biological relevance of the head group bistability is envisaged.

Abstract
The conformations and dynamics of gangliosides GM1, GM2, 6'-GM2 and GM4 have been studied by computational means, and the results compared to NMR data. Unconstrained conformational searches were run using the AMBER* force field augmented by MNDO derived parameters for the Neu5Ac anomeric torsion, the GB/SA water solvation model, and the MC/EM alogorithm; extended (10-12 ns) dynamic simulations in GB/SA water were performed with the MC/SD protocol, and the stored structures were minimized. The overall mobility of the Neu5Ac alpha2,3Gal linkage and the position of its minimum energy conformation have been shown to depend mainly on the presence or the absence of a GalNAc residue at the adjacent position. The best quantitative agreement with the available NOE data was achieved after minimization of the structures stored during the MC/SD dynamic runs. The latter protocol appears to reproduce satisfactorily the available experimental data, and can be used with confidence to build three-dimensional models of ganglioside headgroups.

Abstract
Alcohol and water compete with each other on target membrane molecules, specifically, lipids and proteins near the membrane surface. The basis for this competition is the hydrogen bonding capability of both compounds. But alcohol's amphiphilic properties give it the capability to be attracted simultaneously to both hydrophobic and hydrophilic targets. Thus, alcohol could bind certain targets preferentially and displace water, leading to conformational consequences. This article reviews the clustering and organized character of biological water, which modulates the conformation of membrane surface molecules, particularly receptor protein. Any alcohol-induced displacement of biological water on or inside of membrane proteins creates the opportunity for allosteric change in membrane receptors. This interaction may also prevail in organelles, such as the Golgi apparatus, which have relatively low concentrations of bulk water. Target molecules of particular interest in neuronal membrane are zwitteronic phospholipids, gangliosides, and membrane proteins, including glycoproteins. FTIR and NMR spectroscopic evidence from model membrane systems shows that alcohol has a nonstereospecific binding capability for membrane surface molecules and that such binding occurs at sites that are otherwise occupied by hydrogen-bonded water. The significance of these effects seems to lie in the need to learn more about biological water as an active participant in biochemical actions. Proposed herein is a new working hypothesis that the molecular targets of ethanol action most deserving of study are those where water is trapped and there is little bulk water. Proteins (enzymes and receptors) certainly differ in this regard, as do organelles.

Abstract
The solution structure of ganglioside G(M1) carbohydrate moiety at the surface of a 102-kDa lipid-modified-G(M1) micelle is investigated by high-resolution 1H-NMR in H2O. The micellar surface can be considered a cluster-like lateral distribution of the gangliosides, each single monomer being anchored in a carbohydrate-enriched model membrane matrix. 1H NOESY measurements at short mixing times reveal a rigid trisaccharide core -beta-GalNAc-(1-4)-[alpha-Neu5Ac-(2-3)]-beta-Gal- and a more flexible beta-Gal-(1-3)-beta-GalNAc- terminal glycosidic bond. In the lipid-modified G(M1) ganglioside micellar system, there is no evidence that intermolecular side-by-side carbohydrate interactions modulate, or alter in any way, the head-group spatial arrangement. Possible intermonomer interactions at the level of the branched trisaccharide portion were further investigated on mixed micelles of natural N-glycolyl- and N-acetylneuraminic acid containing G(M1) in D2O, taking advantage of the different NMR features of N-glycolyl- and N-acetylneuraminic acids, which allow discrimination between sialic acid ring proton signals. Measurements of the water/ganglioside-OH proton chemical exchange rates suggest hydroxyl group involvement at position 8 of sialic acid in strong intramolecular interaction processes.

Abstract
Wideline 2H-NMR observations are described demonstrating the interaction of a synthetic peptide (PAK), representing residues 128-144 of the binding domain of pilin surface protein from Pseudomonas aeruginosa, with a complex glycosphingolipid thought to be its natural receptor. The receptor glycolipid (asialo-GM1) carried 2H probe nuclei on the terminal and next-to-terminal carbohydrate residues and was present as a minor component in fluid phosphatidylcholine liposomes. The peptide induced spectral changes that could be understood as arising from receptor motional changes, without receptor immobilization on the NMR time scale of 10(4) s-1. Spectral effects were reversed by reduction of the single peptide disulfide bond--a structural feature previously shown to be a determinant of PAK conformation (Campbell AP, McInnes C, Hodges RS, Sykes BD. 1995. Biochemistry 34:16255-16268). This is the first demonstration of PAK interaction with its epithelial cell receptor in liposomes.
