Toward this goal, we have prepared a series of cyclic peptides that bind to water-soluble metalloporphyrins (FeIII and CoIII). Neutral and positively charged histidine-containing peptides bind with a high affinity, whereas anionic peptides bind only weakly to the negatively charged metalloporphyrin. Additionally, it was found that the peptide becomes helical only in the presence of the metalloporphyrin. CD experiments confirm that the metalloporphyrin binds specific cyclic peptides with high affinity and with isodichroic behavior. Thermal unfolding experiments show that the complex has "native-like" properties. Finally, NMR spectroscopy produced well dispersed spectra and experimental restraints that provide a high-resolution solution structure of the complexed peptide.
