Trichorzianin TA VII, Ac 0 U 1 A 2 A 3 U 4 J 5 Q 6 U 7 U 8 U 9 S 10 L 11 U 12 P 13 V 14 U 15 I 16 Q 17 Q 18 Fol 19 , is a nonadecapeptide member of the peptaibol antibiotics biosynthesized by Trichoderma soil fungi, which is characterized by a high proportion of the α,α‐dialkylated amino acids, α‐aminoisobutyric acid (Aib, U) and isovaline (Iva, J), an acetylated N‐terminus and a C‐terminal phenylalaninol (Pheol, Fol). The main interest in such peptides stems from their ability to interact with phospholipid bilayers and form voltage‐dependent transmembrane channels in planar lipid bilayers. In order to provide insights into the lipid‐peptide interaction promoting the voltage gating, the conformational study of TA VII in the presence of perdeuterated sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS‐d25) micelles has been carried out. 1 H sequential assignments have been performed with the use of two‐dimensional homo‐ and ‐heteronuclear nmr techniques including double quantum filtered correlated spectroscopy, homonuclear Hartmann‐Hahn, nuclear Overhauser effect spectroscopy, 1 H‐ 13 C heteronuclear single quantum correlation, and heteronuclear multiple bond correlation. Conformational parameters, such as 3 J NHCαH coupling constants, temperature coefficients of amide protons (Δδ/Δ T NH ) and quantitative nuclear Overhauser enhancement data, lead to detailed structural information. Ninety‐eight three‐dimensional structures consistent with the nmr data were generated from 231 interproton distances and six Φ dihedral angle restraints, using restrained molecular dynamics and energy minimization calculations. The average rms deviation between the 98 refined structures and the energy‐minimized average structure is 0.59 Å for the backbone atoms. The structure of trichorzianin TA VII associated with SDS micelles, as determined by these methods, is characterized by two right‐handed helical segments involving residues 1–8 and 11–19, linked by a β‐turn that leads to an angle about 90°–100° between the two helix axes; residues 18 and 19 at the end of the C‐terminal helix exhibit multiple conformations. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
