Glycine 70-77 melittin Apis mellifera 96-104 18842019-3 2008 In this study, we used a melittin analogue that is covalently labeled at its amino terminal (Gly-1) with the environment-sensitive 1-dimethylamino-5-sulfonylnaphthalene (dansyl) group to obtain information regarding the orientation and dynamics of the amino terminal region of membrane-bound melittin. Glycine 93-96 melittin Apis mellifera 25-33 7548083-5 1995 In the present study, high-resolution 15N NMR at 50.6 MHz was used to directly measure the pKa values of the amino groups of the Gly-1, Lys-7, Lys-21, and Lys-23 residues of MLT. Glycine 129-132 melittin Apis mellifera 174-177 7548083-7 1995 The experiments showed for MLT tetramer in aqueous phosphate buffer that the amino nitrogen of Gly-1 has a pKa of 8.15, and that the Lys-7, Lys-21, and Lys-23 side chain nitrogen atoms have pKa values of 10.21, 10.03, and 10.24 respectively. Glycine 95-98 melittin Apis mellifera 27-30 7548083-6 1995 Specifically, the pH dependence of MLT 15N chemical shifts was measured separately for the isotopically enriched backbone nitrogen of Gly-1 and the side chain nitrogen atoms of Lys-7, Lys-21, and Lys-23 at a MLT concentration of 1.2 mM and a temperature of 23 degrees C. Measurements were made for MLT in potassium phosphate buffer, in neat water, and in 1-myristoyl-2-hydroxyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (MMPC) lipid micelles.
