DnaB helicases are bacterial, ATP‐driven enzymes that unwind double‐stranded DNA during DNA replication. Herein, we study the sequential binding of the “non‐hydrolysable” ATP analogue AMP‐PNP and of single‐stranded (ss) DNA to the dodecameric DnaB helicase from Helicobacter pylori using solid‐state NMR. Phosphorus cross‐polarization experiments monitor the binding of AMP‐PNP and DNA to the helicase. 13C chemical‐shift perturbations (CSPs) are used to detect conformational changes in the protein upon binding. The helicase switches upon AMP‐PNP addition into a conformation apt for ssDNA binding, and AMP‐PNP is hydrolyzed and released upon binding of ssDNA. Our study sheds light on the conformational changes which are triggered by the interaction with AMP‐PNP and are needed for ssDNA binding of H. pylori DnaB in vitro. They also demonstrate the level of detail solid‐state NMR can provide for the characterization of protein–DNA interactions and the interplay with ATP or its analogues. 相似文献

Methods which induce site-specificity and sensitivity enhancement in solid-state magic-angle spinning NMR spectroscopy become more important for structural biology due to the increasing size of molecules under investigation. Recently, several strategies have been developed to increase site specificity and thus reduce signal overlap. Under dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP) for NMR signal enhancement, it is possible to use cross-relaxation transfer induced by select dynamic groups within the molecules which is exploited by SCREAM-DNP (Specific Cross Relaxation Enhancement by Active Motions under DNP). Here, we present an approach where we additionally reintroduce the homonuclear dipolar coupling with rotational resonance (R2) during SCREAM-DNP to further boost the selectivity of the experiment. Detailed analysis of the polarization buildup dynamics of 13C-methyl polarization source and 13C-carbonyl target in 2-13C-ethyl 1-13C-acetate provides information about the sought-after and spurious transfer pathways. We show that dipolar-recoupled transfer rates greatly exceed the DNP buildup dynamics in our model system, indicating that significantly larger distances can be selectively and efficiently hyperpolarized. 相似文献

A series of laboratory-aged transformer insulating papers were investigated using solid-state NMR spectroscopy. Carbon-13 CPMAS, and proton MAS experiments were carried out along with static proton relaxation (T1, and T1) and free induction decay (FID) measurements. Some proton CRAMPS and proton-carbon-13 correlation (WISE) experiments were also undertaken. A change in the proton T1 and FID with ageing was detected. No detectable change was found in the proton T1. Some amorphous cellulose was detected in the carbon-13 spectrum. There was, however, no evidence for a substantial change in the nature of the cellulose with ageing. The carbon-13 spectra from some aged samples showed signals not present in the spectrum from an unaged sample. This was taken to be evidence of chemical degradation. Proton MAS and the WISE exeriment gave some information about the nature of the water in the sample. 相似文献

Functional Dynamics of Deuterated β2‐Adrenergic Receptor in Lipid Bilayers Revealed by NMR Spectroscopy 下载免费PDF全文

G‐protein‐coupled receptors (GPCRs) exist in conformational equilibrium between active and inactive states, and the former population determines the efficacy of signaling. However, the conformational equilibrium of GPCRs in lipid bilayers is unknown owing to the low sensitivities of their NMR signals. To increase the signal intensities, a deuteration method was developed for GPCRs expressed in an insect cell/baculovirus expression system. The NMR sensitivities of the methionine methyl resonances from the β2‐adrenergic receptor (β2AR) in lipid bilayers of reconstituted high‐density lipoprotein (rHDL) increased by approximately 5‐fold upon deuteration. NMR analyses revealed that the exchange rates for the conformational equilibrium of β2AR in rHDLs were remarkably different from those measured in detergents. The timescales of GPCR signaling, calculated from the exchange rates, are faster than those of receptor tyrosine kinases and thus enable rapid neurotransmission and sensory perception. 相似文献

We demonstrate sensitive detection of alpha protons of fully protonated proteins by solid‐state NMR spectroscopy with 100–111 kHz magic‐angle spinning (MAS). The excellent resolution in the Cα‐Hα plane is demonstrated for 5 proteins, including microcrystals, a sedimented complex, a capsid and amyloid fibrils. A set of 3D spectra based on a Cα–Hα detection block was developed and applied for the sequence‐specific backbone and aliphatic side‐chain resonance assignment using only 500 μg of sample. These developments accelerate structural studies of biomolecular assemblies available in submilligram quantities without the need of protein deuteration. 相似文献

Polystyrene is one of the most widely used plastics. This article reports on the interaction of 50 and 210 nm polystyrene nanoparticles (PSNPs) with human serum albumin (HSA) and transferrin (Tf), as well as their effect on supported lipid bilayers (SLBs), using experimental and theoretical approaches. Dynamic light scattering (DLS) and atomic force microscopy (AFM) measurements show that the increase in diameter for the PSNP-protein bioconjugates depends on nanoparticle size and type of proteins. The circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy results demonstrate that the proteins preserve their structures when they interact with PSNPs at physiological temperatures. The quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) technique reveals that PSNPs and their bioconjugates show no strong interactions with SLBs. On the contrary, the molecular dynamics simulations (MDS) show that both proteins bind strongly to the lipid bilayer (SLBs) when compared to their binding to a polystyrene surface model. The interaction is strongly dependent on the protein and lipid bilayer composition. Both the PSNPs and their bioconjugates show no toxicity in human umbilical vein endothelial (HUVEC) cells; however, bare 210 nm PSNPs and 50 nm PSNP-Tf bioconjugates show an increase in reactive oxygen species production. This study may be relevant for assessing the impact of plastics on health. 相似文献

Despite their roles in controlling many cellular processes, weak and transient interactions between large structured macromolecules and disordered protein segments cannot currently be characterized at atomic resolution by X‐ray crystallography or solution NMR. Solid‐state NMR does not suffer from the molecular size limitations affecting solution NMR, and it can be applied to molecules in different aggregation states, including non‐crystalline precipitates and sediments. A solid‐state NMR approach based on high magnetic fields, fast magic‐angle sample spinning, and deuteration provides chemical‐shift and relaxation mapping that enabled the characterization of the structure and dynamics of the transient association between two regions in an 80 kDa protein assembly. This led to direct verification of a mechanism of regulation of E. coli DNA metabolism. 相似文献

Solid-state NMR (ssNMR) spectroscopy has emerged as the method of choice to analyze the structural dynamics of fibrillar, membrane-bound, and crystalline proteins that are recalcitrant to other structural techniques. Recently, 1H detection under fast magic angle spinning and multiple acquisition ssNMR techniques have propelled the structural analysis of complex biomacromolecules. However, data acquisition and resonance-specific assignments remain a bottleneck for this technique. Here, we present a comprehensive multi-acquisition experiment (PHRONESIS) that simultaneously generates up to ten 3D 1H-detected ssNMR spectra. PHRONESIS utilizes broadband transfer and selective pulses to drive multiple independent polarization pathways. High selectivity excitation and de-excitation of specific resonances were achieved by high-fidelity selective pulses that were designed using a combination of an evolutionary algorithm and artificial intelligence. We demonstrated the power of this approach with microcrystalline U-13C,15N GB1 protein, reaching 100 % of the resonance assignments using one data set of ten 3D experiments. The strategy outlined in this work opens up new avenues for implementing novel 1H-detected multi-acquisition ssNMR experiments to speed up and expand the application to larger biomolecular systems. 相似文献

Magic-angle-spinning (MAS) enhances sensitivity and resolution in solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) measurements. MAS is obtained by aerodynamic levitation and drive of a rotor, which results in large centrifugal forces that may affect the physical state of soft materials, such as polymers, and subsequent solid-state NMR measurements. Here, we investigate the effects of MAS on the solid-state NMR measurements of a polymer electrolyte for lithium-ion battery applications, poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) doped with the lithium salt LiTFSI. We show that MAS induces local chain ordering, which manifests itself as characteristic lineshapes with doublet-like splittings in subsequent solid-state 1 H, 7 Li, and 19 F static NMR spectra characterizing the PEO chains and solvated ions. MAS results in distributions of stresses and hence local chain orientations within the rotor, yielding distributions in the local magnetic susceptibility tensor that give rise to the observed NMR anisotropy and lineshapes. The effects of MAS were investigated on solid-state 7 Li and 19 F pulsed-field-gradient (PFG) diffusion and 7Li longitudinal relaxation NMR measurements. Activation energies for ion diffusion were affected modestly by MAS. 7Li longitudinal relaxation rates, which are sensitive to lithium-ion dynamics in the nanosecond regime, were essentially unchanged by MAS. We recommend that NMR researchers studying soft polymeric materials use only the spin rates necessary to achieve the desired enhancements in sensitivity and resolution, as well as acquire static NMR spectra after MAS experiments to reveal any signs of stress-induced local ordering. 相似文献

The Effect of Cholesterol on Membrane Dynamics on Different Timescales in Lipid Bilayers from Fast Field‐Cycling NMR Relaxometry Studies of Unilamellar Vesicles 下载免费PDF全文

The general applicability of fast field‐cycling nuclear magnetic resonance relaxometry in the study of dynamics in lipid bilayers is demonstrated through analysis of binary unilamellar liposomes composed of 1,2‐dioleoyl‐sn‐glycero‐3‐posphocholine (DOPC) and cholesterol. We extend an evidence‐based method to simulating the NMR relaxation response, previously validated for single‐component membranes, to evaluate the effect of the sterol molecule on local ordering and dynamics over multiple timescales. The relaxometric results are found to be most consistent with the partitioning of the lipid molecules into affected and unaffected portions, rather than a single averaged phase. Our analysis suggests that up to 25 mol %, each cholesterol molecule orders three DOPC molecules, providing experimental backup to the findings of many molecular dynamics studies. A methodology is established for studying dynamics on multiple timescales in unilamellar membranes of more complex compositions. 相似文献

Specific interactions with phospholipids are often critical for the function of proteins or drugs, but studying these interactions at high resolution remains difficult, especially in complex membranes that mimic biological conditions. In principle, molecular interactions with phospholipids could be directly probed by solid-state NMR (ssNMR). However, due to the challenge to detect specific lipids in mixed liposomes and limited spectral sensitivity, ssNMR studies of specific lipids in complex membranes are scarce. Here, by using purified biological 13C,15N-labeled phospholipids, we show that we can selectively detect traces of specific lipids in complex membranes. In combination with 1H-detected ssNMR, we show that our approach provides unprecedented high-resolution insights into the mechanisms of drugs that target specific lipids. This broadly applicable approach opens new opportunities for the molecular characterization of specific lipid interactions with proteins or drugs in complex fluid membranes. 相似文献

Probing the Lipid Annular Belt by Gas‐Phase Dissociation of Membrane Proteins in Nanodiscs 下载免费PDF全文
Dr. Michael T. Marty Kin Kuan Hoi Dr. Joseph Gault Prof. Carol V. Robinson 《Angewandte Chemie (International ed. in English)》2016,55(2):550-554
Interactions between membrane proteins and lipids are often crucial for structure and function yet difficult to define because of their dynamic and heterogeneous nature. Here, we use mass spectrometry to demonstrate that membrane protein oligomers ejected from nanodiscs in the gas phase retain large numbers of lipid interactions. The complex mass spectra that result from gas‐phase dissociation were assigned using a Bayesian deconvolution algorithm together with mass defect analysis, allowing us to count individual lipid molecules bound to membrane proteins. Comparison of the lipid distributions measured by mass spectrometry with molecular dynamics simulations reveals that the distributions correspond to distinct lipid shells that vary according to the type of protein–lipid interactions. Our results demonstrate that nanodiscs offer the potential for native mass spectrometry to probe interactions between membrane proteins and the wider lipid environment. 相似文献

Oncogenic Ras mutations occur in more than 30 % of human cancers. K-Ras4B is the most frequently mutated isoform of Ras proteins. Development of effective K-Ras4B inhibitors has been challenging, hence new approaches to inhibit this oncogenic protein are urgently required. The polybasic domain of K-Ras4B with its stretch of lysine residues is essential for its plasma membrane targeting and localization. Employing CD and fluorescence spectroscopy, confocal fluorescence, and atomic force microscopy we show that the molecular tweezer CLR01 is able to efficiently bind to the lysine stretch in the polybasic domain of K-Ras4B, resulting in dissociation of the K-Ras4B protein from the lipid membrane and disintegration of K-Ras4B nanoclusters in the lipid bilayer. These results suggest that targeting of the polybasic domain of K-Ras4B by properly designed tweezers might represent an effective strategy for inactivation of K-Ras4B signaling. 相似文献
