Nucleation Domains in Biomineralization : Biomolecular Sequence and Conformational Features

Biomolecules play a vital role in the regulation of biomineralization. However, the characteristics of practical nucleation domains are still sketchy. Herein, the effects of the representative biomolecular sequence and conformations on calcium phosphate (Ca-P) nucleation and mineralization are investigated. The results of computer simulations and experiments prove that the line in the arrangement of dual acidic/essential amino acids with a single interval (Bc (Basic) -N (Neutral) -Bc-N-Ac (Acidic)- NN-Ac-N) is most conducive to the nucleation. 2α-helix conformation can best induce Ca-P ion cluster formation and nucleation. "Ac- × × × -Bc" sequences with α-helix are found to be the features of efficient nucleation domains, in which process, molecular recognition plays a non-negligible role. It further indicates that the sequence determines the potential of nucleation/mineralization of biomolecules, and conformation determines the ability of that during functional execution. The findings will guide the synthesis of biomimetic mineralized materials with improved performance for bone repair.
