1H NMR studies of lambda cro repressor. 2. Sequential resonance assignments of the 1H NMR spectrum.
The cro repressor protein from bacteriophage lambda has been studied in solution by two-dimensional nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy (2D NMR). Following the approach of Wüthrich and co-workers [Wüthrich, K., Wider, G., Wagner, G., & Braun, W. (1982) J. Mol. Biol. 155, 311-319], individual spin systems were identified by J-correlated spectroscopy (COSY) supplemented, where necessary, by relayed coherence transfer spectroscopy (RELAY). Nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy (NOESY) was used to obtain sequence-specific assignments. From the two-dimensional spectra, the peptide backbone resonances (NH and C alpha H) for 65 of the 66 amino acids were assigned, as well as most of the side chain resonances. The chemical shifts for the assigned protons are reported at 35 degrees C in 10 mM potassium phosphate, pH 6.8, and in 10 mM potassium phosphate, pH 4.6, 0.2 M KCl, and 0.1 mM EDTA. Small shifts were observed for some resonances upon addition of salt, but no major changes in the spectrum were seen, indicating that no global structural change occurs between these ionic strengths. NOE patterns characteristic of alpha-helices, beta-strands, and turns are seen in various regions of the primary sequence. From the location of these regions the secondary structure of cro in solution appears to be virtually identical with the crystal structure [Anderson, W. F., Ohlendorf, D. H., Takeda, Y., & Matthews, B. W. (1981) Nature (London) 290, 754-758]. Missing assignments include the Pro-59 resonances and the peripheral protons of the eight lysine, the three arginine, and three of the five isoleucine residues.
