Volume 106, Issue 8, Pages 1701-1709 (April 2014) Water-Peptide Site-Specific Interactions: A Structural Study on the Hydration of Glutathione  Ernesto Scoppola, Armida Sodo, Sylvia E. McLain, Maria Antonietta Ricci, Fabio Bruni  Biophysical Journal  Volume 106, Issue 8, Pages 1701-1709 (April 2014) DOI: 10.1016/j.bpj.2014.01.046 Copyright © 2014 Biophysical Society Terms and Conditions

Figure 1 Molecular structure of the tripeptide glutathione (GSH) in its protonation state α1 (top), and α12 (bottom). GSH-α1 and GSH-α12 represent, respectively, the 60% and 30% of the possible states of GSH at the investigated pH ∼3. Each atom site has been labeled according to the symbols used in the EPSR simulation, see Table S2 in the Supporting Material. To see this figure in color, go online.

Figure 2 Site-site radial distribution function of water sites, Ow and Hw, for water as a solvent (thick solid lines) compared with pure water (thin solid lines). The insert shows the region around the second peak of the Ow-Ow. The peak position is unchanged, compared with pure water, indicating that the solute GSH does not alter average water structure.

Figure 3 Site-site radial distribution function of water oxygen Ow around the oxygens of the glutamic acid, Og, and the oxygens on the glycine, O1 and O2 for GSH-α1, see Fig. 1. The Ow-Ow radial distribution function for pure water is also shown as a thin solid line for comparison. The insert shows the region of the first peak of all the plotted radial distribution functions (RDFs), indicating a clear shift to smaller distances of its position for the Og-Ow, O1-Ow, and O2-Ow RDFs, in comparison with pure water. All glutathione-water RDFs show a slope, that is the signature of excluded volume effects, because of the large size of the tripeptide compared with that of a water molecule.

Figure 4 Site-site radial distribution function of water hydrogen, Hw, around the oxygens of the glutamic acid, Og (thick solid line). For the sake of comparison, the Ow-Hw is also plotted as a thin solid line. The first peak, usually taken as the signature of the H-bond, is slightly shifted to smaller distances for Og-Hw, suggesting the presence of shorter and possibly stronger H-bonds between water and Og sites of glutathione. Excluded volume effects, because of the large size of the tripeptide, compared with that of a water molecule, are visible for the plotted Ow-Hw RDF.

Figure 5 Spatial density functions (SDF) showing the distribution of water molecules around the -CO2− group on glutamic acid (A), and around the -CO2− group on glycine (B). The yellow shaded areas represents regions where there is a probability of finding a water molecule at a distance range 2.00 to 4.47 Å (A) or at a distance range 2.00 to 4.26 Å (B) from the central carbon atom. These distance ranges correspond to the first coordination shell of the Ccg-Ow RDF, and of the Cc-Ow RDF, respectively (data not shown), where Ccg is the carbon atom of the -CO2− group on glutamic acid, and Cc is the carbon atom on glycine (see Fig. 1). The plotted SDFs show 65% of the water molecules within the ranges indicated. To see this figure in color, go online.

Figure 6 Top panel: site-site radial distribution function of water oxygen Ow around the oxygens, O1h and O2h, of the carboxylic group of glycine in the GSH-α12 protonation state, see Fig. 1. The Ow-Ow radial distribution function for pure water is also shown as a thin solid line for comparison. The insert shows the region of the first peak of all the plotted RDFs, indicating a slight shift to a larger distance of its position for the O1h-Ow, whereas there is no change and O1-Ow, and no variation of its position for O2h-Ow RDFs, in comparison with pure water. Bottom panel: spatial density functions (SDF) showing the distribution of water molecules around the -COOH group on glycine in the GSH-α12 protonation state, see Fig. 1. The yellow shaded areas represents regions where there is a probability of finding a water molecule at a distance range 2 to 4.44 Å from the central carbon atom. This distance range corresponds to the first coordination shell of the Ccch-Ow RDF (data not shown), where Ccch is the carbon atom of the -COOH group on glycine (see Fig. 1). The plotted SDFs show 65% of the water molecules within the ranges indicated. To see this figure in color, go online.

Figure 7 Top panel: site-site radial distribution function of water oxygen, Ow, around the hydrogens of the amine group on the glutamic acid, Hx (thick solid line). For the sake of comparison, the Hw-Ow is also plotted as a thin solid line. The first peak, usually taken as the signature of the H-bond, is clearly shifted to smaller distances for Hx-Ow, suggesting the presence of shorter and possibly stronger H-bonds between water and Hx sites of glutathione. Notice the slope, because of excluded volume effects, of the plotted RDF. Bottom panel: spatial density functions (SDF) showing the distribution of water molecules around the -NH3+ group on glutamic acid, see Fig. 1. The yellow shaded areas represents regions where there is a probability of finding a water molecule at a distance range 1 to 3.57 Å from the central nitrogen atom. This distance range corresponds to the first coordination shell of the N-Ow RDF (data not shown). The plotted SDFs show 70% of the water molecules within the ranges indicated. To see this figure in color, go online. Biophysical Journal 2014 106, 1701-1709DOI: (10.1016/j.bpj.2014.01.046) Copyright © 2014 Biophysical Society Terms and Conditions

Figure 8 Site-site radial distribution function of water oxygen, Ow, around the hydrogen of the -SH group on cysteine, Hs (thick solid line). For the sake of comparison, the Hw-Ow is also plotted (thin solid line). The first peak, usually taken as the signature of the H-bond, is clearly reduced in amplitude and slightly shifted to larger distances for Hx-Ow, indicating a relatively low affinity for water of this highly reactive group of glutathione. The sloping behavior of the Hx-Ow RDF can be attributed to the presence of excluded volume effects.
