Mutational Effects on the Folding Dynamics of a Minimized Hairpin

Abstract: The fold stabilities and folding dynamics of a series of mutants of a model hairpin, KTW-NPATGK-WTE (HP7), are reported. The parent system and the corresponding DPATGK loop species display sub-μs folding time constants. The mutational studies revealed that ultrafast folding requires both some pre-structuring of the loop and a favorable interaction between the chain termini at the transition state. In the case of YY-DPETGT-WY, another sub-μs folding species [Davis, C. M.; Xiao, S.; Raleigh, D. P.; Dyer, R. B. (… Show more

“…In addition, the lineshapes of the 2.5 ppm upfield-shifted edge-Trp-Hε3 (Fig. S3), reflecting exchange broadening due to the folded/unfolded-state dynamics (18, 21), could be used to derive the folding rate constants. In the case of hairpin st HP1, replacing the RGSG turn locus with PATG increased the Tm (as measured by CD) by at least 16 °C.…”

“…We have reported folding times (at 300K) as short as 0.4 μs with the longest folding timescale for species that have comparable or higher fold stability on the order of 18 μs (18). The fold population (χ F ) for st HP1 in H 2 O is 0.72 at 320K; the native hairpin of Pin1 is much less stable (Tm ≪ 0 °C).…”
