CD spectra of Ac-TKAAAAKAAAAKAAGY-NH2 peptides with threonine modifications [unmodified Thr (free
hydroxyl), ThrOGlcNAc, ThrOPO3H– (pH
4), and ThrOPO32– (pH 8)]: unmodified
Thr (green squares), dianionic phosphothreonine (pH 8) (red circles),
monoanionic phosphothreonine (pH 4) (open magenta circles), and ThrOGlcNAc
(blue diamonds). CD experiments were conducted in water with 10 mM
phosphate (pH 7 or as indicated) and 25 mM KF at 0.5 °C.
