• W2803202079 abstract "It is a textbook knowledge that charges of the same polarity repel each other. For two monovalent ions in the gas phase at a close contact this repulsive interaction amounts to hundreds of kilojoules per mole. In aqueous solutions, however, this Coulomb repulsion is strongly attenuated by a factor equal to the dielectric constant of the medium. The residual repulsion, which now amounts only to units of kilojoules per mole, may be in principle offset by attractive interactions. Probably the smallest cationic pair, where a combination of dispersion and cavitation forces overwhelms the Coulomb repulsion, consists of two guanidinium ions in water. Indeed, by a combination of molecular dynamics with electronic structure calculations and electrophoretic, as well as spectroscopic, experiments, we have demonstrated that aqueous guanidinium cations form (weakly) thermodynamically stable like-charge ion pairs. The importance of pairing of guanidinium cations in aqueous solutions goes beyond a mere physical curiosity, since it has significant biochemical implications. Guanidinium chloride is known to be an efficient and flexible protein denaturant. This is due to the ability of the orientationally amphiphilic guanidinium cations to disrupt various secondary structural motifs of proteins by pairing promiscuously with both hydrophobic and hydrophilic groups, including guanidinium-containing side chains of arginines. The fact that the cationic guanidinium moiety forms the dominant part of the arginine side chain implies that the like-charge ion pairing may also play a role for interactions between peptides and proteins. Indeed, arginine-arginine pairing has been frequently found in structural protein databases. In particular, when strengthened by a presence of negatively charged glutamate, aspartate, or C-terminal carboxylic groups, this binding motif helps to stabilize peptide or protein dimers and is also found in or near active sites of several enzymes. The like-charge pairing of the guanidinium side-chain groups may also hold the key to the understanding of the arginine magic, that is, the extraordinary ability of arginine-rich polypeptides to passively penetrate across cellular membranes. Unlike polylysines, which are also highly cationic but lack the ease in crossing membranes, polyarginines do not exhibit mutual repulsion. Instead, they accumulate at the membrane, weaken it, and might eventually cross in a concerted, train-like manner. This behavior of arginine-rich cell penetrating peptides can be exploited when devising smart strategies how to deliver in a targeted way molecular cargos into the cell." @default.
