Summary: | Copper(
ii
) complexes of peptides with a histidine residue at the second position (His2 peptides) provide a unique profile of electrochemical behavior, offering signals of both Cu(
ii
) reduction and Cu(
ii
) oxidation. Furthermore, their structures with vacant positions in the equatorial coordination plane could facilitate interactions with other biomolecules. In this work, we designed a library of His2 peptides based on the sequence of Aβ
5-9
(RHDSG), an amyloid beta peptide derivative. The changes in the Aβ
5-9
sequence highly affect the Cu(
ii
) oxidation signals, altered further by anionic species. As a result, Cu(
ii
) complexes of Arg1 peptides without Asp residues were chosen as the most promising peptide-based molecular receptors for phosphates. The voltammetric data on Cu(
ii
) oxidation for binary Cu(
ii
)-His2 peptide complexes and ternary Cu(
ii
)-His2 peptide/phosphate systems were also tested for His2 peptide recognition. We achieved a highly promising identification of subtle modifications in the peptide sequence. Thus, we introduce voltammetric measurement as a potential novel tool for peptide sequence recognition.
In this work, we have proposed the double application of voltammetric studies on the Cu(
ii
) oxidation process of Cu(
ii
)-peptide complexes in the recognition of phosphate species and identification of His2 peptide sequences. |
