Prediction of 19F NMR Chemical Shifts for Fluorinated Aromatic Compounds.

ABSTRACT: Scaling factors are reported for use in predicting 19F NMR chemical shifts for fluorinated (hetero)aromatic compounds with relatively low levels of theory. Our recommended scaling factors were developed using a curated data set of 52 compounds, with 100 individual 19F shifts spanning a range of 153 ppm. With a maximum deviation of 6.5 ppm between experimental and computed shifts, or 4% of the range tested, these scaling factors allow for the assignment of chemical shifts to specific fluorines in multifluorinated aromatics. The utility of this approach is highlighted by several structural reassignments.

Fluorinated aromatic amino acids are sensitive 19F NMR probes for bromodomain-ligand interactions.

Project description:We describe a (19)F NMR method for detecting bromodomain-ligand interactions using fluorine-labeled aromatic amino acids due to the conservation of aromatic residues in the bromodomain binding site. We test the sensitivity, accuracy, and speed of this method with small molecule ligands (+)-JQ1, BI2536, Dinaciclib, TG101348, and acetaminophen using three bromodomains Brd4, BrdT, and BPTF. Simplified (19)F NMR spectra allowed for simultaneous testing of multiple bromodomains to assess selectivity and identification of a new BPTF ligand. Fluorine labeling only modestly affected the Brd4 structure and function assessed by isothermal titration calorimetry, circular dichroism, and X-ray crystallography. The speed, ease of interpretation, and low concentration of protein needed for binding experiments affords a new method to discover and characterize both native and new ligands.

Application of 19F NMR Spectroscopy for Content Determination of Fluorinated Pharmaceuticals.

Project description:A simple, rapid, and selective quantitative nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopic method was evaluated for the determination of the content of fluorinated pharmaceuticals. 19F NMR spectra were either obtained in dimethylsulfoxide-d6 or aqueous buffer, using trifluoroacetic acid as internal standard. Quantification of 13 fluorine-containing pharmaceuticals spanning various pharmacological classes was accomplished using the proposed method. The method was found to be fit for purpose (interday precision 1.2% relative standard deviation) and may thus be applied for routine analysis and quality control of fluorine-containing pharmaceuticals due to its simplicity, nondestructive sample measurement, reliability, and high specificity. Therefore, 19F NMR may serve as a suitable analytical tool for the identification and selective determination of fluorinated pharmaceuticals used as reference materials and bulk samples.

Fast Magic-Angle-Spinning 19F Spin Exchange NMR for Determining Nanometer 19F-19F Distances in Proteins and Pharmaceutical Compounds.

Project description:Internuclear distances measured using NMR provide crucial constraints of three-dimensional structures but are often restricted to about 5 Å due to the weakness of nuclear-spin dipolar couplings. For studying macromolecular assemblies in biology and materials science, distance constraints beyond 1 nm will be extremely valuable. Here we present an extensive and quantitative analysis of the feasibility of 19F spin exchange NMR for precise and robust measurements of interatomic distances up to 1.6 nm at a magnetic field of 14.1 T, under 20-40 kHz magic-angle spinning (MAS). The measured distances are comparable to those achievable from paramagnetic relaxation enhancement but have higher precision, which is better than ±1 Å for short distances and ±2 Å for long distances. For 19F spins with the same isotropic chemical shift but different anisotropic chemical shifts, intermediate MAS frequencies of 15-25 kHz without 1H irradiation accelerate spin exchange. For spectrally resolved 19F-19F spin exchange, 1H-19F dipolar recoupling significantly speeds up 19F-19F spin exchange. On the basis of data from five fluorinated synthetic, pharmaceutical, and biological compounds, we obtained two general curves for spin exchange between CF groups and between CF3 and CF groups. These curves allow 19F-19F distances to be extracted from the measured spin exchange rates after taking into account 19F chemical shifts. These results demonstrate the robustness of 19F spin exchange NMR for distance measurements in a wide range of biological and chemical systems.

Fluorinated carbohydrates as lectin ligands: dissecting glycan-cyanovirin interactions by using 19F?NMR spectroscopy.

Project description:NMR spectroscopy and isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) are powerful methods to investigate ligand-protein interactions. Here, we present a versatile and sensitive fluorine NMR spectroscopic approach that exploits the (19)F nucleus of (19)F-labeled carbohydrates as a sensor to study glycan binding to lectins. Our approach is illustrated with the 11?kDa Cyanovirin-N, a mannose binding anti-HIV lectin. Two fluoro-deoxy sugar derivatives, methyl 2-deoxy-2-fluoro-?-D-mannopyranosyl-(1?2)-?-D-mannopyranoside and methyl 2-deoxy-2-fluoro-?-D-mannopyranosyl-(1?2)-?-D-mannopyranosyl-(1?2)-?-D-mannopyranoside were utilized. Binding was studied by (19)F?NMR spectroscopy of the ligand and (1)H-(15)N HSQC?NMR spectroscopy of the protein. The NMR data agree well with those obtained from the equivalent reciprocal and direct ITC titrations. Our study shows that the strategic design of fluorinated ligands and fluorine NMR spectroscopy for ligand screening holds great promise for easy and fast identification of glycan binding, as well as for their use in reporting structural and/or electronic perturbations that ensue upon interaction with a cognate lectin.

Protein structure determination from NMR chemical shifts.

Project description:NMR spectroscopy plays a major role in the determination of the structures and dynamics of proteins and other biological macromolecules. Chemical shifts are the most readily and accurately measurable NMR parameters, and they reflect with great specificity the conformations of native and nonnative states of proteins. We show, using 11 examples of proteins representative of the major structural classes and containing up to 123 residues, that it is possible to use chemical shifts as structural restraints in combination with a conventional molecular mechanics force field to determine the conformations of proteins at a resolution of 2 angstroms or better. This strategy should be widely applicable and, subject to further development, will enable quantitative structural analysis to be carried out to address a range of complex biological problems not accessible to current structural techniques.

NMRDSP: an accurate prediction of protein shape strings from NMR chemical shifts and sequence data.

Project description:Shape string is structural sequence and is an extremely important structure representation of protein backbone conformations. Nuclear magnetic resonance chemical shifts give a strong correlation with the local protein structure, and are exploited to predict protein structures in conjunction with computational approaches. Here we demonstrate a novel approach, NMRDSP, which can accurately predict the protein shape string based on nuclear magnetic resonance chemical shifts and structural profiles obtained from sequence data. The NMRDSP uses six chemical shifts (HA, H, N, CA, CB and C) and eight elements of structure profiles as features, a non-redundant set (1,003 entries) as the training set, and a conditional random field as a classification algorithm. For an independent testing set (203 entries), we achieved an accuracy of 75.8% for S8 (the eight states accuracy) and 87.8% for S3 (the three states accuracy). This is higher than only using chemical shifts or sequence data, and confirms that the chemical shift and the structure profile are significant features for shape string prediction and their combination prominently improves the accuracy of the predictor. We have constructed the NMRDSP web server and believe it could be employed to provide a solid platform to predict other protein structures and functions. The NMRDSP web server is freely available at http://cal.tongji.edu.cn/NMRDSP/index.jsp.

Hydrophilic fluorinated molecules for spectral 19F MRI.

Project description:Fluorine-19 (19F) Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI) is an emerging modality for molecular imaging and cell tracking. The hydrophobicity of current exogenous probes, perfluorocarbons (PFCs) and perfluoropolyethers (PFPEs), limits the formulation options available for in vivo applications. Hydrophilic probes permit more formulation flexibility. Further, the broad Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR) chemical shift range of organofluorine species enables multiple probes with unique 19F MR signatures for simultaneous interrogation of distinct molecular targets in vivo. We report herein a flexible approach to stable liposomal formulations of hydrophilic fluorinated molecules (each bearing numerous magnetically equivalent 19F atoms), with 19F encapsulation of up to 22.7?mg/mL and a per particle load of 3.6?×?106 19F atoms. Using a combination of such probes, we demonstrate, with no chemical shift artifacts, the simultaneous imaging of multiple targets within a given target volume by spectral 19F MRI.

Interpreting protein structural dynamics from NMR chemical shifts.

Project description:In this investigation, semiempirical NMR chemical shift prediction methods are used to evaluate the dynamically averaged values of backbone chemical shifts obtained from unbiased molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of proteins. MD-averaged chemical shift predictions generally improve agreement with experimental values when compared to predictions made from static X-ray structures. Improved chemical shift predictions result from population-weighted sampling of multiple conformational states and from sampling smaller fluctuations within conformational basins. Improved chemical shift predictions also result from discrete changes to conformations observed in X-ray structures, which may result from crystal contacts, and are not always reflective of conformational dynamics in solution. Chemical shifts are sensitive reporters of fluctuations in backbone and side chain torsional angles, and averaged (1)H chemical shifts are particularly sensitive reporters of fluctuations in aromatic ring positions and geometries of hydrogen bonds. In addition, poor predictions of MD-averaged chemical shifts can identify spurious conformations and motions observed in MD simulations that may result from force field deficiencies or insufficient sampling and can also suggest subsets of conformational space that are more consistent with experimental data. These results suggest that the analysis of dynamically averaged NMR chemical shifts from MD simulations can serve as a powerful approach for characterizing protein motions in atomistic detail.

Accurate ab initio prediction of NMR chemical shifts of nucleic acids and nucleic acids/protein complexes.

Project description:NMR chemical shift predictions based on empirical methods are nowadays indispensable tools during resonance assignment and 3D structure calculation of proteins. However, owing to the very limited statistical data basis, such methods are still in their infancy in the field of nucleic acids, especially when non-canonical structures and nucleic acid complexes are considered. Here, we present an ab initio approach for predicting proton chemical shifts of arbitrary nucleic acid structures based on state-of-the-art fragment-based quantum chemical calculations. We tested our prediction method on a diverse set of nucleic acid structures including double-stranded DNA, hairpins, DNA/protein complexes and chemically-modified DNA. Overall, our quantum chemical calculations yield highly/very accurate predictions with mean absolute deviations of 0.3-0.6 ppm and correlation coefficients (r(2)) usually above 0.9. This will allow for identifying misassignments and validating 3D structures. Furthermore, our calculations reveal that chemical shifts of protons involved in hydrogen bonding are predicted significantly less accurately. This is in part caused by insufficient inclusion of solvation effects. However, it also points toward shortcomings of current force fields used for structure determination of nucleic acids. Our quantum chemical calculations could therefore provide input for force field optimization.
