The complete and unequivocal assignment of the 24 ribose proton signals of m6(2)A(1)-U(2)-m6(2)(3)-U(4) by means of 500 MHz NMR spectroscopy at 17 degrees C is given. this assignment is based on scrupulous decoupling experiments carries out at various temperatures. Analysis of the observed chemical shifts and coupling constants of the tetramer shows that the two fragments -m6(2)A(3)-U(4) comprising the 3'-end occur mainly in the classical right-handed stack conformation, whereas the 5'-end the -U(2)- residue appears bulged out in favour of a less well-defined stacking interaction between the bases m6(2)A(1)-and -m6(2)A(3)-. Conformational populations about each of the torsional degrees of freedom along the backbone are discussed. A modernized version of pseudorotation analysis is used to delineate the conformational behaviour of the four ribose rings.
给出了在17℃下通过500MHz核磁共振光谱对m6(2)A(1)-U(2)-m6(2)(3)-U(4)的24个核糖质子信号进行的完整且明确的归属。该归属基于在不同温度下进行的严格去耦实验。对四聚体观察到的化学位移和耦合常数的分析表明,构成3'-末端的两个片段-m6(2)A(3)-U(4)主要以经典的右手堆叠构象存在,而5'-末端的-U(2)-残基则突出,有利于m6(2)A(1)-和-m6(2)A(3)-碱基之间定义不太明确的堆叠相互作用。讨论了沿主链每个扭转自由度的构象群体。使用伪旋转分析的现代化版本来描述四个核糖环的构象行为。
