Revised Manuscript Received August 15, 1995® abstract: Two-dimensional'H NMR spectra of an analog of reduced BPTI at pH 4.5, 1 C, have been assigned. Spectra indicate considerable conformational averaging, as expected for a flexible, unfolded protein. The presence of extensive nonrandom structure is detected by the presence of NH,—NH,-+ i and aromatic—aliphatic NOEs. Sequential amide—amide NOEs indicate that turn-like conformations are significantly populated at 18 pairs of residues along the chain. Many of these are located in a turn, loop, or helix in native BPTI, butsix are observed for contiguous pairs in the segment composed of residues 29—35, which in native BPTI constitute a strand of extended sheet. A novel finding for unfolded proteins is our observation of NOEs implying non-native hydrophobic interactions. Multiple aromatic—aliphatic NOEs are observed for pairs of residues that are within 1—3 residues of each other. Most are non-native and involve residues in both strands of the central antiparallel strand—turn—strand of native BPTI comprised of residues 18—35. All NOEs reported for oligopeptides spanning the BPTI sequence [Kemmink, J „& Creighton, T.(1993) J. Mol. Biol. 234, 861—878] are observed in reduced BPTI, but manyothers are present as well. Similar spectra are obtained for naturally occurring BPTI reduced by dithiothreitol, BPTI with cysteines replaced by a-amino-n-butyric acid, and BPTI mutant F45A reduced by dithiothreitol. The indications of numerous turn-like conformations and of hydrophobic interactions are consistent with earlier reports that reduced BPTI is a molten coil which is collapsed to some extent but not as much as native, and which has exposed, clustered hydrophobes [Ferrer, M., Barany, G., & Woodward, C.(1995) Nature Struct. Biol. 2, 211—217], Comparison of the NOEs in reduced BPTI to those in a model for early BPTI folding intermediates suggests a significant role for non-native interactions in initial steps ofBPTI folding. A variant of reduced BPTI, in which all cysteines are replaced with 5-[13C] methylcysteine, also displays chemicalshift dispersion in HMQC-detected resonances of the [13C] methyl protons. The dispersion is lost by addition of guanidine hydrochloride, indicating that nonrandom structure in reduced BPTI is disrupted by the denaturant.
