Cation-responsive cavity expansion of valinomycin revealed by cryogenic ion trap infrared spectroscopy
文献情報
Valinomycin (VM) is a natural K+-selective ionophore that transports K+ through the cell membrane. VM captures K+ in its central cavity with a C3-symmetric β-turn-like backbone. Although the binding affinity is drastically decreased for the VM-sodium (Na+VM) complex with respect to K+VM, VM holds relatively high affinity to Rb+ and Cs+. The high affinity for larger ions irrespective of ionic size seems to conflict with the expected optimal size matching model and raises questions on what factors determine ion selectivity. A combination of infrared spectroscopy with supporting computational calculations reveals that VM can accommodate larger Rb+ and Cs+ by flexibly changing its cavity size with the elongation of its folded β-turn-like backbone. The high affinity to Rb+ and Cs+ can be ascribed to a size-dependent cavity expansion. These findings provide a new perspective on molecular recognition and selectivity beyond the conventional size matching model.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
