TIME-RESOLVED FOURIER TRANSFORM INFRARED SPECTROSCOPY OF THE BACTERIORHODOPSIN MUTANT TYR-185→E: ASP-96 REPROTONATES DURING O FORMATION; ASP-85 AND ASP-212 DEPROTONATE DURING O DECAY

The protonation state of key aspartic acid residues in the O intermediate of bacteriorhodopsin (bR) has been investigated by time-resolved Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) difference spectroscopy and site-directed mutagenesis. In an earlier study (Bousché et al., J. Biol Chem. 266, 11063-11067, 1991) we found that Asp-96 undergoes a deprotonation during the M-->N transition, confirming its role as a proton donor in the reprotonation pathway leading from the cytoplasm to the Schiff base. In addition, both Asp-85 and Asp-212, which protonate upon formation of the M intermediate, remain protonated in the N intermediate. In this study, we have utilized the mutant Tyr-185-->Phe (Y185F), which at high pH and salt concentrations exhibits a photocycle similar to wild type bR but has a much slower decay of the O intermediate. Y185F was expressed in native Halobacterium halobium and isolated as intact purple membrane fragments. Time-resolved FTIR difference spectra and visible difference spectra of this mutant were measured from hydrated multilayer films. A normal N intermediate in the photocycle of Y185F was identified on the basis of characteristic chromophore and protein vibrational bands. As N decays, bands characteristic of the all-trans O chromophore appear in the time-resolved FTIR difference spectra in the same time range as the appearance of a red-shifted photocycle intermediate absorbing near 640 nm. Based on our previous assignment of the carboxyl stretch bands to the four membrane embedded Asp groups: Asp-85, Asp-96, Asp-115 and Asp-212, we conclude that during O formation: (i) Asp-96 undergoes reprotonation. (ii) Asp-85 may undergo a small change in environment but remains protonated. (iii) Asp-212 remains partially protonated. In addition, reisomerization of the chromophore during the N-->O transition is accompanied by a major reversal of protein conformational changes which occurred during the earlier steps in the photocycle. These results are discussed in terms of a proposed mechanism for proton transport.     

Electric-field effects in dry films of D85N and D85,96N mutant bacteriorhodopsin

In the D85N mutant of the protein bacteriorhodopsin (BR), the Schiff base, by which the retinal chromophore is bound to the protein, exhibits an abnormally low proton affinity (pKa approximately 8.9). Recent experiments on thin films of this protein have shown that this causes the protonation state of the Schiff base, and thus the visible absorption spectrum, to be sensitive to external electric fields. In this paper, we explore the dependence of this effect on parameters such as pH, humidity, and film thickness. The results of these experiments point to the importance of water molecules bound in the acceptor part of the proton channel as sources and donors in field-induced proton-transfer reactions. We describe additional results obtained with the D85,96N mutant, which also exhibits a low Schiff-base pK. The similar behavior of the two mutants under applied electric fields at high pH implies that the residue Asp-96 plays no role in field-induced Schiff-base protonation.     

Water and carboxyl group environments in the dehydration blueshift of bacteriorhodopsin

The proton channels of the bacteriorhodopsin (BR) proton pump contain bound water molecules. The channels connect the purple membrane surfaces with the protonated retinal Schiff base at the membrane center. Films of purple membrane equilibrated at low relative humidity display a shift of the 570 nm retinal absorbance maximum to 528 nm, with most of the change occurring below 15% relative humidity. Purple membrane films were dehydrated to defined humidities between about 50 and 4.5% and examined by Fourier transform infrared difference spectroscopy. In spectra of dehydrated-minus-hydrated purple membrane, troughs are observed at 3645 and 3550 cm-1, and peaks are observed at 3665 and 3500 cm-1. We attribute these changes to water dissociation from the proton uptake channel and the resulting changes in hydrogen bonding of water that remains bound. Also, in the carboxylic acid spectral region, a trough was observed at 1742 cm-1 and a peak at 1737 cm-1. The magnitude of the trough to peak difference between 1737 and 1742 cm-1 correlates linearly with the extent of the 528 nm pigment. This suggests that a carboxylic acid group or groups is undergoing a change in environment as a result of dehydration, and that this change is linked to the appearance of the 528 nm pigment. Dehydration difference spectra with BR mutants D96N and D115N show that the 1737-1742 cm-1 change is due to Asp 96 and Asp 115. A possible mechanism is suggested that links dissociation of water in the proton uptake channel to the environmental change at the Schiff base site.     

Water molecules in the schiff base region of bacteriorhodopsin

The Schiff base region of bacteriorhodopsin (BR), a light-driven proton pump, contains a pentagonal cluster, being composed of three water molecules and one oxygen each of Asp85 and Asp212. Asp85 and Asp212 are located at similar distances from the retinal Schiff base, whereas the Schiff base proton is transferred only to Asp85 during the pump function. The present FTIR study experimentally established the stretching vibration of water402 hydrating with Asp85 by use of various BR mutants, whose frequency (2171 cm-1 as the O-D stretch) indicates very strong hydrogen bond.     

pH-dependent transitions in xanthorhodopsin

Xanthorhodopsin (XR), the light-driven proton pump of the halophilic eubacterium Salinibacter ruber, exhibits substantial homology to bacteriorhodopsin (BR) of archaea and proteorhodopsin (PR) of marine bacteria, but unlike them contains a light-harvesting carotenoid antenna, salinixanthin, as well as retinal. We report here the pH-dependent properties of XR. The pKa of the retinal Schiff base is as high as in BR, i.e. > or =12.4. Deprotonation of the Schiff base and the ensuing alkaline denaturation cause large changes in the absorption bands of the carotenoid antenna, which lose intensity and become broader, making the spectrum similar to that of salinixanthin not bound to XR. A small redshift of the retinal chromophore band and increase of its extinction, as well as the pH-dependent amplitude of the M intermediate indicate that in detergent-solubilized XR the pKa of the Schiff base counterion and proton acceptor is about 6 (compared to 2.6 in BR, and 7.5 in PR). The protonation of the counterion is accompanied by a small blueshift of the carotenoid absorption bands. The pigment is stable in the dark upon acidification to pH 2. At pH < 2 a transition to a blueshifted species absorbing around 440 nm occurs, accompanied by loss of resolution of the carotenoid absorption bands. At pH < 3 illumination of XR with continuous light causes accumulation of long-lived photoproduct(s) with an absorption maximum around 400 nm. The photocycle of XR was examined between pH 4 and 10 in solubilized samples. The pH dependence of recovery of the initial state slows at both acid and alkaline pH, with pKas of 6.0 and 9.3. The decrease in the rates with pKa 6.0 is apparently caused by protonation of the counterion and proton acceptor, and that at high pH reflects the pKa of the internal proton donor, Glu94, at the times in the photocycle when this group equilibrates with the bulk.     

THE TWO CONSECUTIVE M SUBSTATES IN THE PHOTOCYCLE OF BACTERIORHODOPSIN ARE AFFECTED SPECIFICALLY BY THE D85N AND D96N RESIDUE REPLACEMENTS

The photocycle of the proton pump bacteriorhodopsin contains two consecutive intermediates in which the retinal Schiff base is unprotonated; the reaction between these states, termed M1 and M2, was suggested to be the switch in the proton transport which reorients the Schiff base from D85 on the extracellular side to D96 on the cytoplasmic side (Váró and Lanyi, Biochemistry 30, 5016-5022, 1991). At pH 10 the absorption maxima of both M1 and M2 could be determined in the recombinant D96N protein. We find that M1 absorbs at 411 nm as do M1 and M2 in wild-type bacteriorhodopsin, but M2 absorbs at 404 nm. Thus, in M2 but not M1 the unprotonated Schiff base is affected by the D96N residue replacement. The connectivity of the Schiff base to D96 in the detected M2 state, but not in M1, is thereby established. On the other hand, the photostationary state which develops during illumination of D85N bacteriorhodopsin contains an M state corresponding to M1 with an absorption maximum shifted to 400 nm, suggesting that this species in turn is affected by D85. These results are consistent with the suggestion that M1 and M2 are pre-switch and post-switch states, respectively.     

Arg-72 of pharaonis phoborhodopsin (sensory rhodopsin II) is important for the maintenance of the protein structure in the solubilized states

In bacteriorhodopsin (bR), Arg-82bR has been proven to be a very important residue for functional role of this light-driven proton pump. The arginine residue at this position is a super-conserved residue among archaeal rhodopsins. pharaonis phoborhodopsin (ppR; or called as "pharaonis sensory rhodopsin II") has its absorption maximum at 498 nm and acts as a sensor in the membrane of Natronobacterium pharaonis, mediating the negative phototaxis from the light of wavelength shorter than 520 nm. To investigate the role of the arginine residue (Arg-72ppR) of ppR corresponding to Arg-82bR, mutants whose Arg-72ppR was replaced by alanine (R72A), lysine (R72K), glutamine (R72Q) and serine (R72S) were prepared. These mutants were unstable in low concentrations of NaCl and lost their color gradually when the proteins were solubilized with 0.1% n-dodecyl-beta-D-maltoside. The order of instability was R72S > R72A > R72K > R72Q > the wild type. The rates of denaturation were reduced in a solution of high concentrations of monovalent anions.     

Effects of Substitutions D73E, D73N, D103N and V106M on Signaling and pH Titration of Sensory Rhodopsin II

Abstract— Several mutations in the repellent phototaxis receptor sensory rhodopsin II (SRII), in residues homologous to residues important in the related proton pump bacteriorhodopsin, were expressed in Pho81Wr^–, a Halobacterium salinarum strain deficient in production of SRII and its transducer protein HtrII. The lack of production of SRII and HtrII is shown to be due to insertion of an ISH2 transposon into the promoter region upstream of the htrII - sopH gene pair. Near wild-type phototaxis responses are rescued in Pho81Wr^– by expression of HtrII with D73E, D103N or V106M receptors. Partial responses are restored by the HtrII-D73N pair. From absorption spectroscopy of his-tag-purified receptor protein from mutants D73N and D73E we conclude that Asp73 is the primary counterion to the protonated Schiff base in SRII, like the corresponding Asp85 in bacteriorhodopsin. The absorption maximum of SRII (487 nm) is shifted to 514 nm in mutant D73N, a 1080 cm⁻¹ shift identical to that caused by D85N in bacteriorhodopsin. Acid titration of SRII also induces the red shift with a pK of 3.0 in wild type. The absorption shift and the pK are nearly the same in V106M and D103N, but the pK is raised to 5.1 in D73E, confirming that Asp73 is the residue responsible for this spectral transition.

Reversible proton transfer dynamics in bacteriorhodopsin

In a previous study of ab initio dynamics, the proton transfer in bacteriorhodopsin from protonated asp96 in the cytoplasmic region toward the deprotonated Schiff base was investigated. A quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics model was constructed from the X-ray structure of bacteriorhodopsin E204Q mutant. In this model, asp96, asp85, and thr89 as well as most of the retinal chromophore and the Schiff base link of lys216 were treated quantum mechanically while the rest of the atoms were treated molecular mechanically. A channel was found in the X-ray structure allowing a water chain to form between the asp96 and Schiff base. In the present study, a chain of four waters from asp96 to the Schiff base N coupled with one branching water supports proton transfer as a concerted event in about 3.5 ps. With both a neutral asp85 and a branched water, the dynamics is now found to be more complicated than observed in the initial study for the transition from the photocycle late M state to the N state. Proton transfer is also observed from the Schiff base back to asp96 demonstrating that there is no effective barrier to proton transfer larger than kT in a strong H-bonded network. The binding of the branched water to the four water chains can dynamically hinder the proton transfer.     

Dynamics of proton transfer in bacteriorhodopsin

Proton transfer in bacteriorhodopsin from the cytoplasm to the extracellular side is initiated from protonated asp96 in the cytoplasmic region toward the deprotonated Schiff base. This occurs in the transition from the photocycle late M state to the N state. To investigate this proton-transfer process, a quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) model is constructed from the bacteriorhodopsin E204Q mutant crystal structure. Three residues, asp96, asp85, and thr89, as well as most of the retinal chromophore and the Schiff base link of lys216 are treated quantum mechanically and connected to the remaining classical protein through linker atom hydrogens. Structural transformation in the M state results in the formation of a water channel between the Schiff base and asp96. Since a part of this channel is lined with hydrophobic residues, there has been a question on the mechanism of proton transfer in a hydrophobic channel. Ab initio dynamics using the CHARMM/GAMESS methodology is used to simulate the transfer of the proton through a partially hydrophobic channel. Once sufficient water molecules are added to the channel to allow the formation of a single chain of waters from asp96 to the Schiff base, the transfer occurs as a fast (less than a picosecond) concerted event irrespective of the protonation state of asp85. Dynamic transfer of the proton from asp96 to the nearest water initiates the organization of a strongly bonded water chain conducive to the transfer of the proton to the Schiff base nitrogen.

A resonance Raman study of octopus bathorhodopsin with deuterium labeled retinal chromophores.

The resonance Raman spectrum of octopus bathorhodopsin in the fingerprint region and in the ethylenic-Schiff base region have been obtained at 80 K using the "pump-probe" technique as have its deuterated chromophore analogues at the C7D; C8D; C8,C7D2; C10D; C11D; C11, C12D2; C14D; C15D; C14, C15D2; and N16D positions. While these data are not sufficient to make definitive band assignments, many tentative assignments can be made. Because of the close spectral similarity between the octopus bathorhodopsin spectrum and that of bovine bathorhodopsin, we conclude that the essential configuration of octopus bathorhodopsin's chromophore is all-trans like. The data suggest that the Schiff base, C = N, configuration is trans (anti). The observed conformationally sensitive fingerprint bands show pronounced isotope shifts upon chromophore deuteration. The size of the shifts differ, in certain cases, from those found for bovine bathorhodopsin. Thus, the internal mode composition of the fingerprint bands differs somewhat from bovine bathorhodopsin, suggesting a somewhat different in situ chromophore conformation. An analysis of the NH bend frequency, the Schiff base C = N stretch frequency, and its shift upon Schiff base deuteration suggests that the hydrogen bonding between the protonated Schiff base with its protein binding pocket is weaker in octopus bathorhodopsin than in bovine bathorhodopsin but stronger than that found in bacteriorhodopsin's bR568 pigment.     

PRIMARY PHOTOCHEMISTRY OF BACTERIORHODOPSIN: COMPARISON OF FOURIER TRANSFORM INFRARED DIFFERENCE SPECTRA WITH RESONANCE RAMAN SPECTRA

Abstract —Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) difference spectra of the BR→rK transition in bacteriorhodopsin at 77→K are compared with analogous resonance Raman difference spectra obtained using a spinning sample cell at 77→K. The vibrational frequencies observed in the FTIR spectra of native purple membrane and of purple membrane regenerated with 15-deuterioretinal are in good agreement with the frequencies observed in the Raman spectra, indicating that the lines in the FTIR difference spectra arise predominantly from retinal chromophore vibrations. This agreement confirms that the spinning cell method for obtaining resonance Raman spectra of K minimizes potential contributions from unwanted photoproducts. The unexpected similarity between the resonance Raman scattering intensities and the FTIR absorption intensities for BR and K is discussed in terms of the delocalized electronic structure of the chromophore. Finally, comparison of the Schiff base regions of the K Raman and FTIR spectra provide additional information on the assignment of its Schiff base vibration.

The proton uptake channel of bacteriorhodopsin as studied by a photoelectrochemical method

A series of the mutant proteins (D96N, D96N/D85N, D115N, L93T, T46V, V49A) where the residues are located at the cytoplasmic domain of bacteriorhodopsin (bR) were studied photoelectrochemically and their photocurrent response characteristics at the electrode/electrolyte interface were compared with those of the wild-type bR. While the wild-type bR of normal proton pumping activity yields symmetrical cathodic (positive) and anodic (negative) responses, corresponding to proton release and proton uptake, respectively, these mutants, with the exception of D115N, showed diminished amplitudes in the negative response. This indicates retardation of proton translocation from the cytoplasmic surface to the retinal Schiff base. The mutation that gave the strongest influence on the negative response was D96N while moderate influence was obtained with L93T, T46V, and V49A. These results suggest that residues other than D96 also participate in the cytoplasmic proton uptake channel, either by interacting with D96 directly or by forming a hydrogen-bonded network with water molecules. The D96N/D85N double mutant yielded little response at neutral pH, but the response was partially recovered by addition of azide, while it was fully recovered in the single mutant D96N. The D115N mutant showed the response profile that closely resembles the wild-type, indicating that D115 is not crucially involved in the event of proton transfer relay at the cytoplasmic region. It was also found that every mutant in this study releases protons prior to uptake at the other membrane surface, as does the wild-type.     

Dinuclear CoII/GdIII and CoIII/GdIII complexes derived from hexadentate Schiff bases: synthesis,structure, and magnetic properties

Two heterodimetallic complexes of formulae [LCo(MeOH)Gd (NO3)3] (1) and [LCo(AcO)2Gd(NO3)2] (2) (H2L = 1,3-bis[(3-methoxysalicylidene)amino]-2,2'-dimethylpropane) have been synthesized and characterized. The structure of 1 consists of discrete dinuclear entities. The cobalt(II) ion exhibits a square-pyramidal geometry, in which the basal plane is formed by the N2O2 set of the inner Schiff base site and the apical position is occupied by the methanol oxygen atom. The gadolinium(III) ion is ten-coordinate to three bidentate nitrate groups and the four oxygen atoms of the Schiff base. The phenolate oxygen atoms act as a bridge between both metal ions. Complex 2 is also formed by isolated dinuclear species. The cobalt(III) ion shows a distorted octahedral geometry in which the equatorial plane is formed by the N2O2 set of the Schiff base, and the axial positions are occupied by two oxygen atoms from both acetate groups. The gadolinium(III) ion is ten-coordinate to two bidentate nitrate groups, two oxygen atoms of the acetate groups, and the four oxygen atoms of the Schiff base. The metal ions are bridged through both the phenolate oxygen and the acetate groups, the latter acting as mu 2 ligands. Magnetic measurements on compound 1 allowed, for the first time, a quantitative evaluation of the J(Co,Gd) ferromagnetic interaction parameter (J = 0.90 cm-1). The CoII zero-field splitting has to be taken into account to fit the experimental data at low temperature (D = 4.2 cm-1). In complex 2, the magnetically isolated gadolinium center obeys a Curie law.     

A Fourier transform infrared study of Neurospora rhodopsin: similarities with archaeal rhodopsins

The NOP-1 gene from the eukaryote Neurospora crassa, a filamentous fungus, has recently been shown to encode an archaeal rhodopsin-like protein NOP-1. To explore the functional mechanism of NOP-1 and its possible similarities to archaeal and visual rhodopsins, static and time-resolved Fourier transform infrared difference spectra were measured from wild-type NOP-1 and from a mutant containing an Asp-->Glu substitution in the Schiff base (SB) counterion, Asp131 (D131E). Several conclusions could be drawn about the molecular mechanism of NOP-1: (1) the NOP-1 retinylidene chromophore undergoes an all-trans to 13-cis isomerization, which is typical of archaeal rhodopsins, and closely resembles structural changes of the chromophore in sensory rhodopsin II; (2) the NOP-1 SB counterion, Asp131, has a very similar environment and behavior compared with the SB counterions in bacteriorhodopsin (BR) and sensory rhodopsin II; (3) the O-H stretching of a structurally active water molecule(s) in NOP-1 is similar to water detected in BR and is most likely located near the SB and SB counterion in these proteins; and (4) one or more cysteine residues undergo structural changes during the NOP-1 photocycle. Overall, these results indicate that many features of the active sites of the archaeal rhodopsins are conserved in NOP-1, despite its eukaryotic origin.     

14-Fluoro-bacteriorhodopsin gelatin films for dynamic holography recording

The first dynamic holography recording using 14-fluoro-(14-F) bacteriorhodopsin (BR) gelatin films has been achieved. 14-F BR is an artificial BR pigment made by reconstitution of bacterioopsin (native BR without chromophore) with synthetic 14-F retinal. Low-intensity red light from a cw He-Ne laser was used for dynamic holography recording on the 14-F wild type (WT) BR and 14-F D96N mutant BR in gelatin films. There is not true comparing the diffraction efficiency for 14-F D96N BR and 14-F WT gelatin film, unlike the increased diffraction efficiency for D96N BR gelatin film with native chromophore relative to the WT BR gelatin film with native chromophore. Pre-illumination with blue light of the 14-F BR gelatin films significantly increases the diffraction efficiency of both the 14-F WT and the 14-F D96N BR pigments. The sequential application of blue and red laser beams indicates that 14-F BR gelatin films can be useful for optical memory.
