IA3 is a 68 amino acid natural peptide/protein inhibitor of yeast aspartic proteinase A (YPRA) that is intrinsically disordered in solution with induced N-terminal helicity when in the protein complex with YPRA. Based on the intrinsically disordered protein (IDP) parameters of fractional net charge (FNC), net charge density per residue (NCPR), and charge patterning (κ), the two domains of IA3 are defined to occupy different domains within conformationally based subclasses of IDPs, thus making IA3 a bimodal domain IDP. Site-directed spin labeling (SDSL) electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy and low-field Overhauser dynamic nuclear polarization (ODNP) spectroscopy results show that these two domains possess different degrees of compaction and hydration diffusivity behavior. This work suggests that SDSL EPR line shapes, analyzed in terms of their local tumbling volume (VL), provide insights into the compaction of the unstructured IDP ensemble in solution and that protein sequence and net charge distribution patterns within a conformational subclass can impact bound water hydration dynamics, thus possibly offering an alternative thermodynamic property that can encode conformational binding and behavior of IDPs and liquid-liquid phase separations.
