Abstract
Polyalanine based peptides that carry a lysine at the C-terminus ([Ac-AlanLys + H](+)) are known to form α-helices in the gas phase. Three factors contribute to the stability of these helices: (i) the interaction between the helix macro dipole and the charge, (ii) the capping of dangling C[double bond, length as m-dash]O groups by lysine and (iii) the cooperative hydrogen bond network. In previous studies, the influence of the interaction between the helix dipole and the charge as well as the impact of the capping was studied intensively. Here, we complement these findings by systematically assessing the third parameter, the H-bond network. In order to selectively remove one H-bond along the backbone, we use amide-to-ester substitutions. The resulting depsi peptides were analyzed by ion-mobility and m/z-selective infrared spectroscopy as well as theoretical calculations. Our results indicate that peptides which contain only one ester bond still maintain the helical conformation. We conclude that the interaction between the charge and the helix macro-dipole is most crucial for the formation of the α-helical conformation and a single backbone H-bond has only little influence on the overall stability.

Abstract
![]()
We
present ONIOM calculations using density functional theory (DFT)
as the high and AM1 as the medium level that explore the abilities
of different hexapeptide sequences to terminate the growth of a model
for the tau-amyloid implicated in Alzheimer’s disease. We delineate
and explore several design principles (H-bonding in the side chains,
using antiparallel interactions on the growing edge of a parallel
sheet, using all-d residues to form rippled interactions
at the edge of the sheet, and replacing the H-bond donor N–H’s
that inhibit further growth) that can be used individually and in
combination to design such peptides that will have a greater affinity
for binding to the parallel β-sheet of acetyl-VQIVYK-NHCH3 than the natural sequence and will prevent another strand
from binding to the sheet, thus providing a cap to the growing sheet
that arrests further growth. We found peptides in which the Q is replaced
by an acetyllysine (aK) residue to be particularly promising candidates,
particularly if the reverse sequence (KYVIaKV) is used to form an
antiparallel interaction with the sheet.

Abstract
We present ONIOM calculations using B3LYP/d95(d,p) as the high level and AM1 as the medium level on parallel β-sheets containing four strands of Ac-AAAAAA-NH2 capped with either Ac-AAPAAA-NH2 or Ac-AAAPAA-NH2. Because Pro can form H-bonds from only one side of the peptide linkage (that containing the C═O H-bond acceptor), only one of the two Pro-containing strands can favorably add to the sheet on each side. Surprisingly, when the sheet is capped with AAPAAA-NH2 at one edge, the interaction between the cap and sheet is slightly more stabilizing than that of another all Ala strand. Breaking down the interaction enthalpies into H-bonding and distortion energies shows the favorable interaction to be due to lower distortion energies in both the strand and the four-stranded sheet. Because another strand would be inhibited for attachment to the other side of the capping (Pro-containing) strand, we suggest the possible use of Pro residues in peptides designed to arrest the growth of many amyloids.

Abstract
To assess the ability of the quantum-chemical computations to reproduce the experimental relative intensities in the infrared (IR) spectra of both the gas- and condensed-phase systems, the hybrid DFT functional B3LYP has been applied to simulation of IR spectra for species containing from three to twelve first- or second-row atoms, both in the gas phase and in CCl4 solutions. The results demonstrate that B3LYP, combined with the highly compact double-ζ basis set 6-31+G* and "scaled quantum mechanics" techniques, offers excellent quantitative performance in the calculations of relative IR intensities and frequencies (ν ≤ 2200 cm(-1)) for the bands of vibrations of medium-size isolated molecules, whereas it produces unsatisfactory results for the solutions of the same species. Neither larger basis sets nor implicit treatment of the media effects improve the agreement of the simulated spectra with the condensed-phase experiment. At the same time, some preliminary results suggest that explicit modeling of media effects could offer better quality of the IR spectral simulations for the condensed-phase systems.

Abstract
We present ONIOM calculations using B3LYP/d95(d,p) as the high and AM1 as the low level on parallel β-sheets containing from two to ten strands of Ac-VQIVYK-NHMe and Ac-VQIINK-NHMe, as well as both parallel and antiparallel Ac-AAAAAA-NHMe. We find that the first two sequences form more stable sheets due to the additional H-bonding between the Q's in the side chains of both and the N's in the side chain of Ac-VQIINK-NHMe. However, the H-bonds in the amyloid chains are significantly weakened by attractive strain, which prevents all the interstrand H-bonds from achieving their optimal geometries simultaneously and requires high distortion energies for the individual strands in the sheets. The antiparallel Ac-AAAAAA-NHMe's are generally more stable and more cooperative than the parallel sheets, principally due to the higher distortion energies of the latter.

Abstract
The side-chains of the residues of glutamine (Q) and asparagine (N) contain amide groups. These can H-bond to each other in patterns similar to those of the backbone amides in α-helices. We show that mutating multiple Q's for alanines (A's) in a polyalanine helix stabilizes the helical structure, while similar mutations with multiple N's do not. We suggest that modification of peptides by incorporating Q's in such positions can make more robust helices that can be used to test the effects of secondary structures in biochemical experiments linked to proteins with variable structures such as tau and α-synuclein.

Abstract
The structure and spectroscopic properties of the 1:1 complexes of substituted pyridines with benzoic acid and phenol derivatives in aprotic solvents are studied using B3LYP functional combined with the polarizable continuum model approximation. Two extreme structures are investigated: the state without (HB) and with proton transfer (PT). In the presence of an external electric field the O...N distance is contracted and the PT state does appear. The PT state of both the pyridine-benzoic and the pyridine-phenol complexes displays the only IR-active band in the 2800-1800 frequency region, which is located around 2000 cm(-1). However, the nature of the band is different for these two complexes. In the pyridine-benzoic acid complex it is practically a pure stretching vibration of the HN(+) group, while in the pyridine-phenol complex it is the mixed vibration of the bridging proton. A specific feature of the PT state in the pyridine-phenol complex is an IR-intensive band near 600 cm(-1), associated with the asymmetric stretching vibrations of the O(-)...HN(+) fragment. Its intensity is reciprocally proportional to the O...N distance. The appearance of this band provides an efficient criterion to differentiate between the HB and PT states of the 1:1 complexes of phenols with pyridines in aprotic solvents.

Abstract
Two oligomers, each containing 3 l-lysine residues, were used as model molecules for the simulation of the β-sheet conformation of ɛ-polylysine (ɛ-PLL) chains. Their C terminals were capped with ethylamine and N terminals were capped with α-l-aminobutanoic acid, respectively. The calculations were carried out with the hybrid two-level ONOIM (B3LYP/6-31G:PM3) computational chemistry method. The optimized conformation was obtained and IR frequencies were compared with experimental data. The result indicated that the two chains were winded around each other to form a distinct cyclohepta structure through bifurcated hydrogen bonds. The groups of amide and α-amidocyanogen coming from one chain and the carbonyl group from the other chain were involved in the cyclohepta structure. The bond angle of the bifurcated hydrogen bonds was 66.6°. The frequency analysis at ONIOM [B3LYP/6-31G (d):PM3] level showed the IR absorbances of the main groups, such as the amide and amidocyanogen groups, were in accordance with the experimental data.

Abstract
Theoretical calculations have been used to examine singlet oxygen release from a naphthalene endoperoxide which bears a flexible (CH(2))(22) polymethylene "lid". Monte Carlo and ONIOM calculations that incorporated semi-empirical and density functional theory predicted the conformational influence of the polymethylene chain in the cycloreversion of dioxapaddlane, 1,4-diicosa naphthalene-1,4-endoperoxide, to (1)O(2) and 1,4-diicosa naphthalene. This study attempts to build a connection between (1)O(2) generation and "jump rope" dynamics of the dioxapaddlane. The polymethylene chain appears to function as a gatekeeper for the oxygen. Instead of coming full circle, a semi-circle rotation of the polymethylene bridge protected the peroxide group, limiting the dissociation of (1)O(2) from the naphthalene site.

Abstract
We report the first molecular orbital/density functional theory (DFT) calculations on the vibrational frequencies involved in the amide I band of completely geometrically optimized models for beta-sheet peptides based upon (up to 16) glycine residues. These calculations use the B3LYP/D95** level of DFT. The primary means of vibrational coupling occurs through H bond, rather than through space, interactions, which is consistent with a previous report on alpha-helical polyalanines and H-bonding chains of both formamides and 4-pyridones. We decoupled the C=O stretching vibrations using selected 14C substitutions to probe the coupling mechanism and to determine "natural" frequencies for individual 14C=Os. The intermolecular H-bonding interactions affect the geometries of the amide groups. Those near the center of H-bonding chains have long C=O bonds. The C=O bond lengths correlate with these "natural" frequencies, The frequencies obtained from the DFT calculations are generally more coupled, and the most intense are more red shifted than those calculated by transition dipole coupling (TDC). TDC inverts the order of the shifted frequencies compared to DFT in several cases.
