NMR structure of influenza HA fusion peptide mutant W14A in DPC in pH5
Fusion peptide of influenza hemagglutinin requires a fixed angle boomerang structure for activity
Derived from the influenza (X11) hemagglutinin HA2, residue 1-20 except the 14th residue W was replaced with A.
This structure was determined using standard 2D homonuclear techniques.
2mM peptide, 400mM d38-DPC, 5mM dtt, 20 mMd4-acetic acid, pH 5; 95% H2O, 5% D2O
