Abstract:

The structure of isolated peptides from TM6 of Slc11a2 in dodecylphosphocholine(DPC) micelles was investigated using circular dichroism(CD) and nuclear magnetic resonance(NMR) spectroscopy. The results reveal that TM6 of Slc11a2 forms short α-helix in both N- and C-terminal and the two α-helixes are connected by a highly flexible region, the whole peptide is embedded in DPC micelles. H267A mutation makes the helix become longer, while H272A mutation make the helix become slightly shorter.
