Abstract

Conformational analysis of peptides containing cis-3-hydroxy-D-proline (D-cis-3-Hyp) by NMR studies revealed that the 3-hydroxyl group in this amino acid plays a significant role in the overall three-dimensional structures of the peptides. When the D-cis-3-Hyp had its 3-hydroxyl group protected as the benzyl (Bn) ether, the peptide displayed a β-hairpin structure in both CDCl3 and DMSO-d6. Even after the removal of the Bn group, the resulting deprotected compound retained the same structure as in the protected version in CDCl3. However, in polar solvent DMSO-d6, the C-terminal strand of the hydroxyl-deprotected peptide flipped to the side of the hydroxyl group, breaking the hairpin to form a pseudo β-turn-like nine-membered ring structure involving an intramolecular hydrogen bond between LeuNH → HypC3-OH.
