CuII Ion Coordination to an Unprotected Pentadecapeptide Containing Two His Residues: Competition Between the Terminal Amino and the Side‐Chain Imidazole Nitrogen Donors

Abstract: The complex-formation equilibria of the pentadecapeptide TLEGTKKGHKLHLDY, the 114-128 protein fragment of SPARC, with the Cull ion have been investigated, at I = 0.1 mol.dm(-3) (KNO3) and T = 298.2 K. Protonation and complex-formation constants have been determined potentiometrically, and formation enthalpies measured by direct solution calorimetry; the complex-formation model and species stoichiometry have been carefully checked by means of UV/Vis absorption, CD and EPR spectroscopy. The structure hypo-theses… Show more

“…In the latter species the donor centres are just an amino and an imidazole group, as hypothesized for this MLH 2 species. A macrochelate ring should form in this case, as already previously reported in literature for an unprotected pentadecapeptide derived from the SPARC protein 20…”

“…The interactions of a-synuclein, the protein responsible for the Lewy bodies of Parkinson's disease, with Cu(II) are considered important [17]. The details of the coordination chemistry of copper complexes of peptides are keys to understanding the many roles -both normal and pathological -of copper-peptide systems [16,18,19].…”
