Popis: | The biological addition of oligosaccharide structures to asparagine residues of N-glycoproteins influences the properties and bioactivities of these macromolecules. The linkage region constituents, 2-acetamino-2-deoxy-?-D- glucopyranose monosaccharide (GlcNAc) and L-asparagine amino acid (Asn), are conserved in the N-glycoproteins of all eukaryotes. In order to gain information about the structure and dynamics of glycosylated proteins, two chloroacetamido sugars, Glc?NAcNHCOCH2Cl and Man?NHCOCH2Cl, have been synthesized, and their crystal structures have been solved. Structural comparison with a series of other models and analogs gives insight about the influence of the N-acetyl group at position C2 on the conformation of the glycan-peptide linkage at C1. Interestingly, this N-acetyl group also influences the packing and network of hydrogen bonds with involvement in weak hydrogen bonds C-H?X that are of biological importance. DFT ab initio calculations performed on a series of models and analogs also confirm that the GlcNAc derivatives present different preferred conformation about the N-CO-CH 2-X (?2) torsion angle of the glycan-peptide linkage, when compared to other monosaccharide derivatives. The energy profiles that have been obtained will be useful for parametrization of molecular mechanics force-field. The conjunction of crystallographic and computational chemistry studies provides arguments for the structural effect of the N-acetyl group at C2 in establishing an extended conformation that presents the oligosaccharide away from the protein surface. � 2008 American Chemical Society. |
