The effects of hydrogen bonds on metal-mediated O2 activation and related processes.

ABSTRACT: Hydrogen bonds stabilize and direct chemistry performed by metalloenzymes. With inspiration from enzymes, we will utilize an approach that incorporates intramolecular hydrogen bond donors to determine their effects on the stability and reactivity of metal complexes. Our premise is that control of secondary coordination sphere interactions will promote new function in synthetic metal complexes. Multidentate ligands have been developed that create rigid organic structures around metal ions. These ligands place hydrogen bond (H-bond) donors proximal to the metal centers, forming specific microenvironments. One distinguishing attribute of these systems is that site-specific modulations in structure can be readily accomplished, in order to evaluate correlations with reactivity. A focus of this research is consideration of dioxygen binding and activation by metal complexes, including developing structure-function relationships in metal-assisted oxidative catalysis.

Nature of Alkali- and Coinage-Metal Bonds versus Hydrogen Bonds.

Project description:We have quantum chemically studied the structure and nature of alkali- and coinage-metal bonds (M-bonds) versus that of hydrogen bonds between A-M and B- in archetypal [A-M⋅⋅⋅B]- model systems (A, B=F, Cl and M=H, Li, Na, Cu, Ag, Au), using relativistic density functional theory at ZORA-BP86-D3/TZ2P. We find that coinage-metal bonds are stronger than alkali-metal bonds which are stronger than the corresponding hydrogen bonds. Our main purpose is to understand how and why the structure, stability and nature of such bonds are affected if the monovalent central atom H of hydrogen bonds is replaced by an isoelectronic alkali- or coinage-metal atom. To this end, we have analyzed the bonds between A-M and B- using the activation strain model, quantitative Kohn-Sham molecular orbital (MO) theory, energy decomposition analysis (EDA), and Voronoi deformation density (VDD) analysis of the charge distribution.

Hydrogen Bonds Dictate O2 Capture and Release within a Zinc Tripod.

Project description:Six directed hydrogen bonding (H-bonding) interactions allow for the reversible capture and reduction of dioxygen to a trans-1,2-peroxo within a tripodal zinc(II) framework. Spectroscopic studies of the dizinc peroxides, as well as on model zinc diazides, suggest H-bonding contributions serve a dominant role for the binding/activation of these small molecules.

Short hydrogen bonds enhance nonaromatic protein-related fluorescence.

Project description:Fluorescence in biological systems is usually associated with the presence of aromatic groups. Here, by employing a combined experimental and computational approach, we show that specific hydrogen bond networks can significantly affect fluorescence. In particular, we reveal that the single amino acid L-glutamine, by undergoing a chemical transformation leading to the formation of a short hydrogen bond, displays optical properties that are significantly enhanced compared with L-glutamine itself. Ab initio molecular dynamics simulations highlight that these short hydrogen bonds prevent the appearance of a conical intersection between the excited and the ground states and thereby significantly decrease nonradiative transition probabilities. Our findings open the door to the design of new photoactive materials with biophotonic applications.

Switches of hydrogen bonds during ligand-protein association processes determine binding kinetics.

Project description:Revealing the processes of ligand-protein associations deepens our understanding of molecular recognition and binding kinetics. Hydrogen bonds (H-bonds) play a crucial role in optimizing ligand-protein interactions and ligand specificity. In addition to the formation of stable H-bonds in the final bound state, the formation of transient H-bonds during binding processes contributes binding kinetics that define a ligand as a fast or slow binder, which also affects drug action. However, the effect of forming the transient H-bonds on the kinetic properties is little understood. Guided by results from coarse-grained Brownian dynamics simulations, we used classical molecular dynamics simulations in an implicit solvent model and accelerated molecular dynamics simulations in explicit waters to show that the position and distribution of the H-bond donor or acceptor of a drug result in switching intermolecular and intramolecular H-bond pairs during ligand recognition processes. We studied two major types of HIV-1 protease ligands: a fast binder, xk263, and a slow binder, ritonavir. The slow association rate in ritonavir can be attributed to increased flexibility of ritonavir, which yields multistep transitions and stepwise entering patterns and the formation and breaking of complex H-bond pairs during the binding process. This model suggests the importance of conversions of spatiotemporal H-bonds during the association of ligands and proteins, which helps in designing inhibitors with preferred binding kinetics.

Cooperative Effects in Weak Interactions: Enhancement of Tetrel Bonds by Intramolecular Hydrogen Bonds.

Project description:A series of silyl and germanium complexes containing halogen atoms (fluorine and chlorine atoms) and exhibiting tetrel bonds with Lewis bases were analyzed by means of Møller-Plesset computational theory. Binding energies of germanium derivatives were more negative than silicon ones. Amongst the different Lewis bases utilized, ammonia produced the strongest tetrel bonded complexes in both Ge and Si cases, and substitution of the F atom by Cl led to stronger complexes with an ethylene backbone. However, with phenyl backbones, the fluorosilyl complexes were shown to be less stable than the chlorosilyl ones, but the opposite occurred for halogermanium complexes. In all the cases studied, the presence of a hydroxyl group enhanced the tetrel bond. That effect becomes more remarkable when an intramolecular hydrogen bond between the halogen and the hydrogen atom of the hydroxyl group takes places.

Peroxide Activation Regulated by Hydrogen Bonds within Artificial Cu Proteins.

Project description:Copper-hydroperoxido species (CuII-OOH) have been proposed to be key intermediates in biological and synthetic oxidations. Using biotin-streptavidin (Sav) technology, artificial copper proteins have been developed to stabilize a CuII-OOH complex in solution and in crystallo. Stability is achieved because the Sav host provides a local environment around the Cu-OOH that includes a network of hydrogen bonds to the hydroperoxido ligand. Systematic deletions of individual hydrogen bonds to the Cu-OOH complex were accomplished using different Sav variants and demonstrated that stability is achieved with a single hydrogen bond to the proximal O-atom of the hydroperoxido ligand: changing this interaction to only include the distal O-atom produced a reactive variant that oxidized an external substrate.

Transient non-native hydrogen bonds promote activation of a signaling protein.

Project description:Phosphorylation is a common mechanism for activating proteins within signaling pathways. Yet, the molecular transitions between the inactive and active conformational states are poorly understood. Here we quantitatively characterize the free-energy landscape of activation of a signaling protein, nitrogen regulatory protein C (NtrC), by connecting functional protein dynamics of phosphorylation-dependent activation to protein folding and show that only a rarely populated, pre-existing active conformation is energetically stabilized by phosphorylation. Using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) dynamics, we test an atomic scale pathway for the complex conformational transition, inferred from molecular dynamics simulations (Lei et al., 2009). The data show that the loss of native stabilizing contacts during activation is compensated by non-native transient atomic interactions during the transition. The results unravel atomistic details of native-state protein energy landscapes by expanding the knowledge about ground states to transition landscapes.

Effects of electron transfer on the stability of hydrogen bonds.

Project description:The measurement of the dimerization constants of hydrogen-bonded ruthenium complexes (12, 22, 32) linked by a self-complementary pair of 4-pyridylcarboxylic acid ligands in different redox states is reported. Using a combination of FTIR and UV/vis/NIR spectroscopies, the dimerization constants (KD) of the isovalent, neutral states, 12, 22, 32, were found to range from 75 to 130 M-1 (?G0 = -2.56 to -2.88 kcal mol-1), while the dimerization constants (K2-) of the isovalent, doubly-reduced states, (12)2-, (22)2-, (32)2-, were found to range from 2000 to 2500 M-1 (?G0 = -4.5 to -4.63 kcal mol-1). From the aforementioned values and the comproportionation constant for the mixed-valent dimers, the dimerization constants (KMV) of the mixed-valent, hydrogen-bonded dimers, (12)-, (22)-, (32)-, were found to range from 0.5 × 106 to 1.2 × 106 M-1 (?G0 = -7.78 to -8.31 kcal mol-1). On average, the hydrogen-bonded, mixed-valent states are stabilized by -5.27 (0.04) kcal mol-1 relative to the isovalent, neutral, hydrogen-bonded dimers and -3.47 (0.06) kcal mol-1 relative to the isovalent, dianionic hydrogen bonded dimers. Electron exchange in the mixed valence states imparts significant stability to hydrogen bonding. This is the first quantitative measurement of the strength of hydrogen bonds in the presence and absence of electronic exchange.

Non-Heme-Iron-Mediated Selective Halogenation of Unactivated Carbon-Hydrogen Bonds.

Project description:Oxidation of the iron(II) precursor [(L1 )FeII Cl2 ], where L1 is a tetradentate bispidine, with soluble iodosylbenzene (s PhIO) leads to the extremely reactive ferryl oxidant [(L1 )(Cl)FeIV =O]+ with a cis disposition of the chlorido and oxido coligands, as observed in non-heme halogenase enzymes. Experimental data indicate that, with cyclohexane as substrate, there is selective formation of chlorocyclohexane, the halogenation being initiated by C-H abstraction and the result of a rebound of the ensuing radical to an iron-bound Cl- . The time-resolved formation of the halogenation product indicates that this primarily results from s PhIO oxidation of an initially formed oxido-bridged diiron(III) resting state. The high yield of up to >70 % (stoichiometric reaction) as well as the differing reactivities of free Fe2+ and Fe3+ in comparison with [(L1 )FeII Cl2 ] indicate a high complex stability of the bispidine-iron complexes. DFT analysis shows that, due to a large driving force and small triplet-quintet gap, [(L1 )(Cl)FeIV =O]+ is the most reactive small-molecule halogenase model, that the FeIII /radical rebound intermediate has a relatively long lifetime (as supported by experimentally observed cage escape), and that this intermediate has, as observed experimentally, a lower energy barrier to the halogenation than the hydroxylation product; this is shown to primarily be due to steric effects.

Footprinting SHAPE-eCLIP reveals transcriptome-wide hydrogen bonds at RNA-protein interfaces

Project description:Discovering the interaction mechanism and location of RNA binding proteins (RBPs) on RNA is critical for understanding gene expression regulation. Here, we apply selective 2’-hydroxyl acylation analyzed by primer extension (SHAPE) on in vivo transcripts to identify transcriptome-wide footprints (fSHAPE) on RNA when compared to protein-absent transcripts. Structural analyses indicate that fSHAPE precisely detects nucleotides whose base moieties hydrogen bond with protein and that fSHAPE patterns can predict binding sites of RBPs of interest. To illustrate, we demonstrate that fSHAPE correctly identifies known and novel iron response protein RNA elements. Furthermore, we enable selective interrogation of RNA-protein complexes by integrating SHAPE and fSHAPE with crosslinking and immunoprecipitation (eCLIP) of desired RBPs. To demonstrate, histone stem loop elements and their nucleotides that hydrogen bond with stem-loop binding protein were identified by SHAPE-eCLIP and fSHAPE-eCLIP. Together, these technologies greatly expand on strategies for understanding specific cellular RNA interactions in RNA-protein complexes.
