PubMed Abstract: Cyclic disulfide-rich peptides have exceptional stability and are promising frameworks for drug design. We were interested in obtaining X-ray structures of these peptides to assist in drug design applications, but disulfide-rich peptides can be notoriously difficult to crystallize. To overcome this limitation, we chemically synthesized the L- and D-forms of three prototypic cyclic disulfide-rich peptides: SFTI-1 (14-mer with one disulfide bond), cVc1.1 (22-mer with two disulfide bonds), and kB1 (29-mer with three disulfide bonds) for racemic crystallization studies. Facile crystal formation occurred from a racemic mixture of each peptide, giving structures solved at resolutions from 1.25 Å to 1.9 Å. Additionally, we obtained the quasi-racemic structures of two mutants of kB1, [G6A]kB1, and [V25A]kB1, which were solved at a resolution of 1.25 Å and 2.3 Å, respectively. The racemic crystallography approach appears to have broad utility in the structural biology of cyclic peptides.
