Streszczenie

Hpn, one of Helicobacter pylori′s nickel‐accessory proteins, is an amazingly peculiar protein: Almost half of its sequence consists of polyhistidyl (poly‐His) residues. Herein, we try to understand the origin of this naturally occurring sequence, thereby shedding some light on the bioinorganic chemistry of Hpn′s numerous poly‐His repeats. By using potentiometric, mass spectrometric, and various spectroscopic techniques, we studied the NiII‐ and CuII complexes of the wild‐type Ac‐THHHHYHGG‐NH2 fragment of Hpn and of its six analogues, in which consecutive residues (His or Tyr) were replaced by Ala (Ala‐substitution or Ala‐scan approaches), thereby resulting in Ac‐TAHHHYHGG‐NH2, Ac‐THAHHYHGG‐NH2, Ac‐THHAHYHGG‐NH2, Ac‐THHHAYHGG‐NH2, Ac‐THHHHAHGG‐NH2, and Ac‐THHHHYAGG‐NH2 peptides. We found that the His4 residue is critical for both NiII‐ and CuII‐ion binding and the effectiveness of binding varies even if the substituted amino acid does not take part in the direct binding interactions.
