This book was released on 2013 with total page 159 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hydrogen deuterium exchange mass spectrometry has emerged as an important technique to probe protein structure and conformational dynamics. The rate of exchange of hydrogen with deuterium by the peptide backbone is dependent on the solvent accessibility, extent of hydrogen bonding in secondary structural elements and protein dynamics. The extent and the rate of deuterium incorporation are affected by changes in protein structure, interaction with ligand, protein-protein interaction and environmental factors such as pH and temperature. These conformational changes can be global and/or local. The increase in the mass is used to localize the deuterium incorporation after pepsin digestion of the protein and analysis by electrospray ionization mass spectrometry. In this dissertation traditional HDX-MS and a new deuterium trapping assay were used to probe the interaction sites between E. coli cysteine desulfurase SufS and acceptor protein SufE. SufS and SufE form an important part of the SUF pathway, essential for the biosynthesis of Fe-S clusters under oxidative stress and iron depletion conditions. In addition, SufE is known to stimulate SufS cysteine desulfurase activity, but the mechanism is unknown. The HDX-MS results show that the regions affected by the SufS-SufE interaction are dependent on the catalytic intermediate states of the two proteins. HDX-MS was also used to probe the conformational changes resulting upon persulfuration of SufS of Cys364 in the active site. The persulfuration of SufS not only affected regions in the active site cavity, but also had other conformational changes in more distal regions. Based on our findings a model for the interaction SufS and SufE was proposed. A mechanism for the enhancement of SufS cysteine desulfurase activity upon interaction with SufE was also postulated. In all this work demonstrates that hydrogen deuterium exchange mass spectrometry and the deuterium trapping methodology optimized for this system can be easily and effectively used to study the protein-protein interactions and the accompanying changes in structural dynamics for other proteins. Deuterium trapping was demonstrated to be fast, sensitive and reliable method to deduce the changes in solvent accessibility between two or more states of a protein. Both techniques can easily be applied to large number of protein complexes to determine the regions of interaction as well as gain mechanistic information not available through traditional methods such as X-ray crystallography and NMR.

Download or read book Mass Spectrometry based Strategies for Protein Biophysics written by Yining Huang and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 193 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Mass spectrometry (MS) is an essential tool to study proteins whose structures are of great importance in biological systems. The primary structures of proteins can be determined by the powerful sequencing capabilities of MS. The recent advancements in instrumentation and methodology have made MS increasingly valuable in probing secondary, tertiary and quaternary structures, as well as binding strength, interfaces and in solution dynamics of proteins and protein complexes. Various protein footprinting techniques, including hydrogen-deuterium exchange (HDX) and fast photochemical oxidation of proteins (FPOP), encode structural information onto the protein molecule in different forms of modifications, and then MS is utilized to interpret the mass shifts resulted from modifications and extract the structural information. Protein footprinting coupled with bottom-up proteomics, which utilizes front-end LC separation and tandem mass spectrometry, has gained a solid ground in protein biophysics. On the other hand, opportunities emerge as native MS, ion-mobility separation, gas-phase activation and fragmentation techniques allow new approaches to be developed. In the first part of this dissertation, we describe epitope mapping of three malaria antigens (Plasmodium vivax Duffy binding protein in Chapter 2, Plasmodium vivax and falciparum cell-traversal protein for ookinetes and sporozoites in Chapter 6) and one flavivirus antigen (West Nile virus envelope protein domain III (DIII) in Chapter 4) by HDX in combination with bottom-up MS. We also report epitope mapping of DIII antigen by FPOP (Chapter 5). Challenged by highly disulfide-linked antigens, sample complexity and discontinuous epitopes with only a few residues each, we implemented immunoprecipitation, non-canonical quenching and digestion protocols to achieve complete sequence coverage and map the epitopes with high confidence and spatial resolution. In the second part (Chapter 3), we describe the usage of native MS and ion mobility to characterize antigen-antibody complexes formed by the Duffy binding protein antigen with various antibodies targeting different epitopes. The last part (chapter 7 and 8) describes the development an on-line HDX, native-spray platform in conjunction with top-down MS. The strategy is validated by determining the amide hydrogen exchange rates of a model peptide at the residue level. With evidence for adequate mixing efficiency, high sequence coverage, low hydrogen scrambling and capable data analysis, we applied the platform to study solution-phase amyloid beta 1-40 monomer structure by continuous-labeling and monitoring exchange kinetics and to probe the dimerization interfaces of human insulin by pulse-labeling experiment. These seven studies demonstrate the applications of the mature bottom-up and promising top-down MS on characterizing protein conformation and protein-protein interactions.

Download or read book Protein Protein Interactions written by Weibo Cai and published by BoD – Books on Demand. This book was released on 2012-03-30 with total page 488 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Proteins are indispensable players in virtually all biological events. The functions of proteins are coordinated through intricate regulatory networks of transient protein-protein interactions (PPIs). To predict and/or study PPIs, a wide variety of techniques have been developed over the last several decades. Many in vitro and in vivo assays have been implemented to explore the mechanism of these ubiquitous interactions. However, despite significant advances in these experimental approaches, many limitations exist such as false-positives/false-negatives, difficulty in obtaining crystal structures of proteins, challenges in the detection of transient PPI, among others. To overcome these limitations, many computational approaches have been developed which are becoming increasingly widely used to facilitate the investigation of PPIs. This book has gathered an ensemble of experts in the field, in 22 chapters, which have been broadly categorized into Computational Approaches, Experimental Approaches, and Others.

Download or read book Enabling Tools for Biological Analysis written by Moshiur Mekhail Anwar and published by . This book was released on 2007 with total page 414 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study of proteins in biological systems requires a comprehensive approach: investigating dynamics, interaction and identification. This thesis will examine several technological approaches we have developed to address these needs. To enable the study of the dynamics of biological systems, we have developed a method for using atomic force microscopy (AFM) to image motion on an angstrom scale with microsecond time resolution. As proteins move, diffuse, or are actively trafficked within the cellular environment, they interact with other biological molecules. Protein microarrays offer a high-throughput method of investigating these protein interactions, but their use has largely been hindered by the need to clone and purify thousands of proteins. We have developed a novel technique to pattern proteome-scale microarrays using a cellular lysate, whereby all relevant proteins are synthesized with the correct post-translational modifications. Additionally, we have integrated the identification of proteins with quantitative mass spectrometry (SILAC). Using these arrays we have probed changes in the phosphorylation state of cells in response to activation of the Erb1 and Erb2 receptors. Using our microarray platform we were able to further probe the phosphoproteome for proteins that have multiple post-translational modifications. The widespread use of protein, DNA and small molecule microarrays has been limited in clinical and diagnostic settings due to the cost of microarray readers. Therefore, we have developed an optics-free integrated circuit-based microarray imaging chip that is compatible with existing (optics-based) microarray protocols. By eliminating optics, and developing the reader using integrated circuit technology, the cost can be significantly reduced. The reader is powered by a single sine wave, enabling a wireless interface. We use this reader to detect a biotin-streptavidin interaction using standard microarray procedures.
