- GAG glycosaminoglycan
- CMP collagen mimetic peptides
- the GAG-containing CMP was designed to incorporate chondroitin sulfate (CS) A disaccharide motifs into a peptide chain.
- This CS-A motif provides unique biocharacteristics to cartilage tissues, including the mechanical properties of joints, the modulation of protein functions, and the proteolytic resistance of, collagen fibers.
- Sequence specific peptides consisting of two different Gly-Xaa-Yaa domains were hence designed. These peptides contained distinct repeating triplets with charged residues at the central core of peptide chains (Fig. 5B).
- CS-A disaccharide units were introduced at position Xaa (1) and either Lys or Arg at position Yaa (2 and 3) based on the positional preferences of charged residues in Gly-Xaa- Yaa sequence.
- the complementary electrostatic interactions between the negatively charged groups and basic residues present in two different chains would facilitate the formation of heterotrimeric helices over homotrimeric assembly (Fig. 5A).
- Peptide 4 containing 15 N- enriched glycine was also designed for the compositional analysis of collagen triple helices (CTHs) using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. In all cases, the C- and N- termini have been amidated or acetylated to avoid interactions with side chains (Fig. 5B).
- T m of 1-3 was markedly higher than that containing Lys residues by 24.9 °C of Ar m .
- This result highlights the significance of sulfate-guanidinium interactions in stabilizing CTH, as T m values of (EOG) 10 -2(PRGPOG) 5 and (EOG) 10 -2(PKGPOG) 5 mixtures are marginally different in neutral phosphate buffer by only 7.5°C.
- the lack of compositional - information had limited ability to confirm the heterotrimeric assembly as CD studies provide only general idea for the folding and stability of assembled peptides.
- the melting curve of peptide 3 was quite similar to the mixture of 1-3, making it difficult to distinguish from one another.
- DSC differential scanning calorimetry
- Synthesis of the peptide library was performed by using an automatic synthesizer Titan 357 (AAPPTEC). 50 mg of ChemMatrix ® resins (0.48 mmol/g) were swelled in NMP (1 ml) for 5 min in a Reaction Vessel (RV). With the liquid drained, 20% piperidine in NMP (1 ml, v/v) was added and the RV was vortexed for 3 min. The liquid was drained and a fresh solution of 20% piperidine in NMP (1 ml, v/v) was added and the RV was vortexed for another 12 min.
- AAPPTEC automatic synthesizer Titan 357
- the resulting beads were thoroughly washed by NMP (1 ml x 2), methanol (1 ml x 2), and DCM (1 ml x 2). With the resulting resins swelled with NMP (1 ml) for 15 min, Fmoc-protected amino acid (2.5 equiv, 0.2 M solution in NMP) was added to the RV, as well as TBTU (2.5 equiv, 0.2 M solution in NMP) and DIEA (5.0 equiv, 0.5 M in NMP). The resulting mixture was vortexed for 45 min. With the liquid drained, the resulting beads were thoroughly washed by NMP (1 ml * 3). The coupling step was repeated until the desired sequence of peptide attained.
- N-terminus was modified with acetyl group by treatment of acetic anhydride (10 equiv, 0.5 M solution) and DIEA (20 equiv, 0.5 M in NMP) for 10 min.
- the resins were washed by NMP (1 ml x 3) and transferred in a 4 ml reactor equipped with a filter, using DCM (2 ml x 3).
- the peptide was cleayed in a cleavage cocktail of TFA-water-TIS, (1.5 ml, 94/3/3, v/v) for 2 h on a 180-degree shaker, while all the acid-labile protective groups in the residues were also detached.
- HPLC conditions and ESI mass data for peptides 1 to 5 are provided in Tables 2 and 3 respectively.
- the mixture was dissolved in degassed DMSO (150 uL), and the desired amount of copper (I) iodide stock solution (3 ⁇ , of 7.876 mM sotck solution in DMSO, 0.3 mol% per azide), and DIPEA (18 ⁇ , 53 equiv., 0.103 mmol) were added.
- the reaction mixture was stirred at room temperature for 5 days.
- the consumption of peptide 5 was monitored by analytical reverse phase HP LC equipped with C-18 column. After the completion, solvent was removed and the white precipitate was dissolved in 200 ⁇ , of aqueous 6 M NaCl and purified by Sephadex G- 15 column (100% H 2 0) to afford peptide 1 as a white solid upon lyophilization.
- EXAMPLE 7 [00155] This example describes circular dichroism (CD) analysis.
- CD spectra were recorded on an Aviv 410 circular dichroism spectrometer equipped with temperature controller. Peptide solutions at concentrations of 200 ⁇ were used. All sample solutions made in 10 mM sodium phosphate-dibasic buffer (pH 7.0) were equilibrated for 24 hr at 4 °C before CD measurements. A Quartz Cell of 1 mm path length was used. For wavelength scan, temperature was increased to the desired points at a rate of 10 °C hr and the sample solutions were equilibrated for 10 min before the measurements. Spectra were recorded from 260 to 190 nm. and mean residue ellipticity [ ⁇ ] was calculated as follows;
- ⁇ represents the ellipticity in millidegrees
- N the number of amino acid residues
- c the molar concentration in mol-L "1 , and / the cell path length in cm.
- Thermal denaturation curves were obtained at final peptide concentrations of 0.2 mM and molar ellipticity at 225 nm was measured as a function of temperature in a range of 5 to 80 °C at a heating rate of 10 °C/hr. All annealed samples were heated for 30 min at 85 °C and then cooled down to 4 °C at a rate of 1 °C/min followed by equilibration for 24 hr at 4 °C before the measurements. The melting temperatures were determined from the minimum points in the first derivative of the melting curves.
- This example describes ⁇ , 15 N-Heteronuclear Single Quantum Coherence (HSQC) experiments.
