Abstract:
:Solid-state NMR is especially useful when the structures of peptides and proteins should be analyzed by taking into account the structural distribution, that is, the distribution of the torsion angle of the individual residue. In this study, two-dimensional spin-diffusion solid-state NMR spectra of 13C-double-labeled model peptides (GPGGA)6G of flagelliform silk were observed for studying the local structure in the solid state. The spin-diffusion NMR spectra calculated by assuming the torsion angles of the beta-spiral structure exclusively could not reproduce the observed spectra. In contrast, the spectra calculated by taking into account the statistical distribution of the torsion angles of the individual central residues in the sequences Ala-Gly-Pro, Gly-Pro-Gly, Pro-Gly-Gly, Gly-Gly-Ala, and Gly-Ala-Gly from PDB data could reproduce the observed spectra well. This indicates that the statistical distribution of the torsion angles should be considered for the structural model of (GPGGA)6G similar to the case of the model peptide of elastin.
