Native tertiary structure or "fold" of an RNA molecule is (one of) its lowest free energy configuration(s) Gibbs free energy = ΔG in kcal/mol at 37°C = equilibrium stability of structure lower values (negative) are more favorable Is this assumption valid? in vivo? - this may not hold, but we don't really know 11/07/05 D Dobbs ISU - BCB 444/544X: Protein Structure: Classification, Databases, Visualization 10 Gibbs free energy: ΔG Gibbs Free energy (G) is formally defined in terms of state functions enthalpy & entropy, & state variable, temperature G = H - TS ΔG = ΔH - TΔS (for constant temp) Enthalpy (H) = amount of heat absorbed by a system at constant pressure Entropy (S) = measure of the amount of disorder or randomness in a system Note = this is not the same as "entropy" in information theory, but is related, see: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Information_theory 11/07/05 D Dobbs ISU - BCB 444/544X: Protein Structure: Classification, Databases, Visualization 11 Gibbs free energy: ΔG Gibbs free energy for formation of an RNA or protein structure = ΔG° = equilibrium stability of that structure at a specific temperature (kcal/mol at 37°C) ΔG° = -RT lnKeq R = gas constant 11/07/05 D Dobbs ISU - BCB 444/544X: Protein Structure: Classification, Databases, Visualization 12 Nearest-neighbor parameters Most methods for free energy minimization use nearest-neighbor parameters (derived from experiment) for predicting stability of an RNA secondary structure (in terms of ΔG at 37°C) & most available software packages use the same set of parameters: Mathews, Sabina, Zuker & Turner, 1999 Protein Structure: Classification, Databases, Visualization 11/07/05 D Dobbs ISU - BCB 444/544X 5 11/07/05 D Dobbs ISU - BCB 444/544X: Protein Structure: Classification, Databases, Visualization 25 Amino Acids Each of 20 different amino acids has different "R-Group," side chain attached to Cα 11/07/05 D Dobbs ISU - BCB 444/544X: Protein Structure: Classification, Databases, Visualization 26 Peptide bond is rigid and planar 11/07/05 D Dobbs ISU - BCB 444/544X: Protein Structure: Classification, Databases, Visualization 27 Hydrophobic Amino Acids 11/07/05 D Dobbs ISU - BCB 444/544X: Protein Structure: Classification, Databases, Visualization 28 Charged Amino Acids 11/07/05 D Dobbs ISU - BCB 444/544X: Protein Structure: Classification, Databases, Visualization 29 Polar Amino Acids 11/07/05 D Dobbs ISU - BCB 444/544X: Protein Structure: Classification, Databases, Visualization 30 Certain side-chain configurations are energetically favored (rotamers) Ramachandran plot: "Allowable" psi & phi angles Protein Structure: Classification, Databases, Visualization 11/07/05 D Dobbs ISU - BCB 444/544X 6 11/07/05 D Dobbs ISU - BCB 444/544X: Protein Structure: Classification, Databases, Visualization 31 Glycine is smallest amino acid R group = H atom • Glycine residues increase backbone flexibility because they have no R group 11/07/05 D Dobbs ISU - BCB 444/544X: Protein Structure: Classification, Databases, Visualization 32 Proline is cyclic • Proline residues reduce flexibility of polypeptide chain • Proline cis-trans isomerization is often a rate-limiting step in protein folding • Recent work suggests it also may also regulate ligand binding in native proteins -Andreotti 11/07/05 D Dobbs ISU - BCB 444/544X: Protein Structure: Classification, Databases, Visualization 33 Cysteines can form disulfide bonds • Disulfide bonds (covalent) stabilize 3-D structures • In eukaryotes, disulfide bonds are found only in secreted proteins or extracellular domains 11/07/05 D Dobbs ISU - BCB 444/544X: Protein Structure: Classification, Databases, Visualization 34 Globular proteins have a compact hydrophobic core Packing of hydrophobic side chains into interior is main driving force for folding Problem?
