Opis:
We report our progress in understanding the structure-function relationship of the interaction between protein inhibitors and several serine proteases. Recently, we have determined high resolution solution structures of two inhibitors Apis mellifera chymotrypsin inhibitor-1 (AMCI-I) and Linum usitatissimum trypsin inhibitor (LUTI) in the free state and an ultra high resolution X-ray structure of BPTI. All three inhibitors, despite totally different scaffolds, contain a solvent exposed loop of similar conformation which is highly complementary to the enzyme active site. Isothermal calorimetry data show that the interaction between wild type BPTI and chymotrypsin is entropy driven and that the enthalpy component opposes complex formation. Our research is focused on extensive mutagenesis of the four positions from the protease binding loop of BPTI: P1, P1', P3, and P4. We mutated these residues to different amino acids and the variants were characterized by determination of the association constants, stability parameters and crystal structures of protease-inhibitor complexes. Accommodation of the P1 residue in the S1 pocket of four proteases: chymotrypsin, trypsin, neutrophil elastase and cathepsin G was probed with 18 P1 variants. High resolution X-ray structures of ten complexes between bovine trypsin and P1 variants of BPTI have been determined and compared with the cognate P1 Lys side chain. Mutations of the wild type Ala16 (P1') to larger side chains always caused a drop of the association constant. According to the crystal structure of the Leu16 BPTI-trypsin complex, introduction of the larger residue at the P1' position leads to steric conflicts in the vicinity of the mutation. Finally, mutations at the P4 site allowed an improvement of the association with several serine proteases involved in blood clotting. Conversely, introduction of Ser, Val, and Phe in place of Gly12 (P4) had invariably a destabilizing effect on the complex with these proteases.

Opis:
First-principles density functional theory calculations have been performed to investigate the structural, elastic and thermodynamic properties of rubidium telluride in cubic anti-fluorite (anti-CaF2-type) structure. The calculated ground-state properties of Rb2Te compound such as equilibrium lattice parameter and bulk moduli are investigated by generalized gradient approximation (GGA-PBE) that are based on the optimization of total energy. The elastic constants, Young’s and shear modulus, Poisson ratio, have also been calculated. Our results are in reasonable agreement with the available theoretical and experimental data. The pressure dependence of elastic constant and thermodynamic quantities under high pressure are also calculated and discussed.

Conformational space and photochemistry of $\alpha$-Terpinene

Opis:
$\alpha$-Terpinene is a natural product that is isolated from a variety of plant sources and is used in the pharmaceutical and perfume industries. In the atmosphere, under the influence of sunlight, $\alpha$-terpinene undergoes a series of photochemical transformations and contributes to the formation of the secondary organic aerosols. In the present work, $\alpha$-terpinene has been isolated in low-temperature xenon and argon matrices, and its structure and photochemistry were characterized with the aid of FTIR spectroscopy and DFT calculations. The theory predicts three conformers resulting from the rotation of the exocyclic $CH(CH_{3})_{2}$ framework, that is, Trans (T) and Gauche (G+ and G-) forms. The two Gauche conformers were estimated to be higher in energy, by ca. 1.75 kJ mol$^{-1}$, than the most stable Trans form. The signatures of all three conformers were found to be present in the experimental low-temperature matrix spectra with the T form dominating in diluted matrices. The conformational ratio was found to shift in favor of the G+/G- forms upon annealing of the matrices as well as in the neat $\alpha$-terpinene liquid. UVC ($\lambda$ > 235 nm) irradiation of matrix-isolated $\alpha$-terpinene led to its isomerization into an open-ring species, which is produced in the Z configuration and in the conformations that require the smallest structural rearrangements of both the reagent and matrix.
