RESUMO
The hydroxy protons of the disaccharide moiety in the glycopeptide Val-[beta-Gal(1-->3)-alpha-GalNAc(1-->O)]-Thr-His-Pro-Gly-Tyr (1) have been investigated in aqueous solution using (1)H NMR spectroscopy. The chemical shifts (delta), coupling constants ((3)J(CH,OH)), temperature coefficients (d delta/dT), exchange rates (k(ex)), and NOEs have been measured. The data show that the O(2')H of Gal has a reduced contact with water due to steric interference caused by the 2-acetamido group of GalNAc. No interaction, in terms of hydrogen bonding exists between the disaccharide and the peptide moieties, but the rotation around the sugar-peptide linkage is restricted.
