Self‐organization Properties of a GPCR‐Binding Peptide with a Fluorinated Tail Studied by Fluorine NMR Spectroscopy

Abstract: Conjugation of the bioactive apelin‐17 peptide with a fluorocarbon chain results in self‐organization of the peptide into micelles. Fluorine NMR spectroscopy studies show that the fluoropeptide‘s micelles are monodisperse, while proton NMR indicates that the peptide moiety remains largely disordered despite micellization. A very fast exchange rate is measured between the free and micellar states of the peptide which enables the number of molecules present in the micelle to be estimated as 200, in agreement wit… Show more

“…Nanoscale biomolecular aggregates containing peptides or proteins have applications in a wide range of fields. Micelle, bicelle and nanodisc systems are used to characterize membrane proteins 1 , 2 , high and low-density lipoproteins (HDL and LDL) are lipid droplets with apolipoproteins attached on their surface 3 , 4 , and nanodiscs stabilized by apolipoprotein mimetic and peptide micelles have potential pharmaceutical applications 5 , 6 . However, these small and highly dynamic aggregates are inaccessible with most experimental methods that deliver atomistic resolution data of biomolecular systems, such as crystallography or electron microscopy.…”

“…When incorporated in liposomes, pegylated apelin-13 could be efficiently delivered to endothelial cells in tumors, showing the potential of liposomes as a DDS to prolong apelin-like activity . The interaction mode of apelin-derived peptides with liposomes is still largely unknown, although NMR has been used previously to get detailed insight into the structure of apelin peptides, their molecular interactions with membrane models, and the self-aggregation properties of their various derivatives. …”
