J.Biol.Chem., 300:107125-107125, 2024 Cited by PubMed Abstract: Cyclotides are plant-derived peptides characterized by a head-to-tail cyclic backbone and a cystine knot motif comprised of three disulfide bonds. Formation of this motif via in vitro oxidative folding can be challenging and result in misfolded isomers with non-native disulfide connectivities. Here we investigated the effect of β-turn nucleation on cyclotide oxidative folding. Two types of β-turn mimics were grafted into kalata B1 (kB1), individually replacing each of the four β-turns in the folded cyclotide. Insertion of D-Pro-Gly into loop 5 was beneficial to the folding of both cyclic kB1 and a linear form of the peptide. The linear grafted analog folded four-times faster in aqueous conditions than cyclic kB1 in optimized conditions. Additionally, the cyclic analogue folded without the need for redox agents by transitioning through a native-like intermediate that was on-pathway to product formation. Kalata B1 is from the Mobius subfamily of cyclotides. Grafting D-Pro-Gly into loop 5 of cyclotides from two other subfamilies also had a beneficial effect on folding. Our findings demonstrate the importance of a β-turn nucleation site for cyclotide oxidative folding, which could be adopted as a chemical strategy to improve the in vitro folding of diverse cystine-rich peptides.
