title: NMR evaluation of adipocyte fatty acid binding protein (aP2) with R- and S-ibuprofen.
abstract: We have examined global chemical shift perturbations for aP2 ligand complexes and compared these with amide temperature coefficients. Hydrogen bond potential was monitored by amide chemical shift's temperature coefficient. Based on this information, we propose that the binding energy contribution can be spread out to multiple distant residues. For aP2, the ability of the receptor protein to change its hydrogen bond interactions in the beta-strands to accommodate different ligand scaffolds seems to make this receptor difficult for structure based drug design. While stabilization energy differential on hydrogen bonds is likely to be small for individual residues, the accumulative effect on multiple hydrogen bonds may have a dramatic impact on ligand affinity.
