Mass spectrometry is now established as a powerful tool for the study of the stoichiometry, interactions, dynamics, and subunit architecture of large protein assemblies and their subcomplexes. Recent evidence has suggested that the 3D structure of protein complexes can be maintained intact in the gas phase, highlighting the potential of ion mobility to contribute to structural biology. A key challenge is to integrate the compositional and structural information from ion mobility mass spectrometry with molecular modelling approaches to produce 3D models of intact protein complexes. In this review, we focus on the mass spectrometry of protein-nucleic acid assemblies with particular attention to the application of ion mobility, an emerging technique in structural studies. We also discuss the challenges that lie ahead for the full integration of ion mobility mass spectrometry with structural biology. 相似文献

Chemical cross-linking combined with mass spectrometry provides a powerful method for identifying protein-protein interactions and probing the structure of protein complexes. A number of strategies have been reported that take advantage of the high sensitivity and high resolution of modern mass spectrometers. Approaches typically include synthesis of novel cross-linking compounds, and/or isotopic labeling of the cross-linking reagent and/or protein, and label-free methods. We report Xlink-Identifier, a comprehensive data analysis platform that has been developed to support label-free analyses. It can identify interpeptide, intrapeptide, and deadend cross-links as well as underivatized peptides. The software streamlines data preprocessing, peptide scoring, and visualization and provides an overall data analysis strategy for studying protein-protein interactions and protein structure using mass spectrometry. The software has been evaluated using a custom synthesized cross-linking reagent that features an enrichment tag. Xlink-Identifier offers the potential to perform large-scale identifications of protein-protein interactions using tandem mass spectrometry. 相似文献

Chemical cross-linking of reactive groups in native proteins and protein complexes in combination with the identification of cross-linked sites by mass spectrometry has been in use for more than a decade. Recent advances in instrumentation, cross-linking protocols, and analysis software have led to a renewed interest in this technique, which promises to provide important information about native protein structure and the topology of protein complexes. In this article, we discuss the critical steps of chemical cross-linking and its implications for (structural) biology: reagent design and cross-linking protocols, separation and mass spectrometric analysis of cross-linked samples, dedicated software for data analysis, and the use of cross-linking data for computational modeling. Finally, the impact of protein cross-linking on various biological disciplines is highlighted.The concept of protein cross-linking as a (bio)chemical tool to infer structural information about protein conformations and protein-protein interactions in combination with mass spectrometry was introduced at the end of the 1990s (1). In a seminal paper, Young et al. (1) used chemical cross-linking of lysine residues in bovine basic fibroblast growth factor FGF-2 (heparin-binding growth factor 2) to provide distance constraints for the computational derivation of the fold of this small (17-kDa) protein. FGF-2 was cross-linked with bis(sulfosuccinimidyl) suberate, purified by size exclusion chromatography, and digested with trypsin. Cross-linked peptides were separated by HPLC and analyzed on line by ESI-TOF and off line by MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry. Putative cross-links were then assigned based on their precursor masses, and some of them were verified by MALDI postsource decay. The authors could identify 15 cross-links that did not bridge directly adjacent lysines and therefore provided information on the three-dimensional structure of the protein. These data were used to assign FGF-2 to the β-trefoil family by excluding calculated models that did not fit the distance constraints.In the last decade, the application of protein cross-linking has expanded, first and foremost driven by developments in mass spectrometry as the method of choice for the high throughput identification of proteins and their modifications. Reviews by Back et al. (2), Sinz (3), and most recently Lee (4) give an overview on the evolution of the field. However, despite the progress that has undoubtedly been made, cross-linking is still considered a “niche” technique that has not (yet) lived up to its promises. High throughput generation of data supporting protein fold prediction and the determination of protein-protein interactions have not been realized routinely. There may be several reasons for that such as the necessity of access to high end mass spectrometers, the requirement of specialized reagents, and the need for tailored software. However, recent years have seen an increased interest in this technique, which is reflected in the literature and by the emergence of new reagents and software tools.Here, we present an overview of recent developments in methodology, instrumentation, and bioinformatics related to chemical cross-linking of proteins and the analysis of cross-linked peptides by mass spectrometry. Other cross-linking areas such as protein-DNA cross-linking, photoinduced cross-linking, or the characterization of disulfide bonds will not be covered in detail in this paper. We critically discuss advantages and limitations of different concepts and look beyond the immediate outcome of cross-linking experiments (putative interactions and/or distance constraints) and examine the potential role of chemical cross-linking in the analysis of protein interaction networks and, more generally, for structural and systems biology. 相似文献

Mass spectrometric analysis of cross-linking sites for the structure of proteins and protein complexes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Jin Lee Y 《Molecular bioSystems》2008,4(8):816-823
Mass spectrometry has become the method of choice to detect and quantify the minute amounts of proteins at the genomic scale. It has recently been adopted for three dimensional structure analyses of proteins or protein complexes by chemically cross-linking their intact forms and analyzing the cross-linked pieces after digestion. This highlight provides an overview of the technology with a focus on advances in the last two years. This cross-linking mass spectrometry has a great potential to become a powerful tool to supplement current X-ray and NMR method of protein structure analysis. 相似文献

Structural biology offers a versatile arsenal of techniques and methods to investigate the structure and conformational dynamics of proteins and their assemblies. The growing field of targeted protein degradation centres on the premise of developing small molecules, termed degraders, to induce proximity between an E3 ligase and a protein of interest to be signalled for degradation. This new drug modality brings with it new opportunities and challenges to structural biologists. Here we discuss how several structural biology techniques, including nuclear magnetic resonance, cryo-electron microscopy, structural mass spectrometry and small angle scattering, have been explored to complement X-ray crystallography in studying degraders and their ternary complexes. Together the studies covered in this review make a case for the invaluable perspectives that integrative structural biology techniques in solution can bring to understanding ternary complexes and designing degraders. 相似文献

Integrative structural modeling enables structure determination of macromolecules and their complexes by integrating data from multiple sources. It has been successfully used to characterize macromolecular structures when a single structural biology technique was insufficient. Recent developments in cellular structural biology, including in-cell cryo-electron tomography and artificial intelligence-based structure prediction, have created new opportunities for integrative structural modeling. Here, we will review these opportunities along with the latest developments in integrative modeling methods and their applications. We also highlight open challenges and directions for further development. 相似文献

Protein-nucleic acid complexes are commonly studied by photochemical cross-linking. UV-induced cross-linking of protein to nucleic acid may be followed by structural analysis of the conjugated protein to localize the cross-linked amino acids and thereby identify the nucleic acid binding site. Mass spectrometry is becoming increasingly popular for characterization of purified peptide-nucleic acid heteroconjugates derived from UV cross-linked protein-nucleic acid complexes. The efficiency of mass spectrometry-based methods is, however, hampered by the contrasting physico-chemical properties of nucleic acid and peptide entities present in such heteroconjugates. Sample preparation of the peptide-nucleic acid heteroconjugates is, therefore, a crucial step in any mass spectrometry-based analytical procedure. This study demonstrates the performance of four different MS-based strategies to characterize E. coli single-stranded DNA binding protein (SSB) that was UV-cross-linked to a 5-iodouracil containing DNA oligomer. Two methods were optimized to circumvent the need for standard liquid chromatography and gel electrophoresis, thereby dramatically increasing the overall sensitivity of the analysis. Enzymatic degradation of protein and oligonucleotide was combined with miniaturized sample preparation methods for enrichment and desalting of cross-linked peptide-nucleic acid heteroconjugates from complex mixtures prior to mass spectrometric analysis. Detailed characterization of the peptidic component of two different peptide-DNA heteroconjugates was accomplished by matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization mass spectrometry and allowed assignment of tryptophan-54 and tryptophan-88 as candidate cross-linked residues. Sequencing of those peptide-DNA heteroconjugates by nanoelectrospray quadrupole time-of-flight tandem mass spectrometry identified tryptophan-54 and tryptophan-88 as the sites of cross-linking. Although the UV-cross-linking yield of the protein-DNA complex did not exceed 15%, less than 100 pmole of SSB protein was required for detailed structural analysis by mass spectrometry. 相似文献

Multiprotein complexes, rather than individual proteins, make up a large part of the biological macromolecular machinery of a cell. Understanding the structure and organization of these complexes is critical to understanding cellular function. Chemical cross-linking coupled with mass spectrometry is emerging as a complementary technique to traditional structural biology methods and can provide low-resolution structural information for a multitude of purposes, such as distance constraints in computational modeling of protein complexes. In this review, we discuss the experimental considerations for successful application of chemical cross-linking-mass spectrometry in biological studies and highlight three examples of such studies from the recent literature. These examples (as well as many others) illustrate the utility of a chemical cross-linking-mass spectrometry approach in facilitating structural analysis of large and challenging complexes. 相似文献

Most protein complexes are inaccessible to high resolution structural analysis. We report the results of a combined approach of cross-linking, mass spectrometry, and bioinformatics to two human complexes containing large coiled-coil segments, the NDEL1 homodimer and the NDC80 heterotetramer. An important limitation of the cross-linking approach, so far, was the identification of cross-linked peptides from fragmentation spectra. Our novel approach overcomes the data analysis bottleneck of cross-linking and mass spectrometry. We constructed a purpose-built database to match spectra with cross-linked peptides, define a score that expresses the quality of our identification, and estimate false positive rates. We show that our analysis sheds light on critical structural parameters such as the directionality of the homodimeric coiled coil of NDEL1, the register of the heterodimeric coiled coils of the NDC80 complex, and the organization of a tetramerization region in the NDC80 complex. Our approach is especially useful to address complexes that are difficult in addressing by standard structural methods. 相似文献

Understanding the way how proteins interact with each other to form transient or stable protein complexes is a key aspect in structural biology. In this study, we combined chemical cross-linking with mass spectrometry to determine the binding stoichiometry and map the protein–protein interaction network of a human SAGA HAT subcomplex. MALDI-MS equipped with high mass detection was used to follow the cross-linking reaction using bis[sulfosuccinimidyl] suberate (BS3) and confirm the heterotetrameric stoichiometry of the specific stabilized subcomplex. Cross-linking with isotopically labeled BS3 d0-d4 followed by trypsin digestion allowed the identification of intra- and intercross-linked peptides using two dedicated search engines: pLink and xQuest. The identified interlinked peptides suggest a strong network of interaction between GCN5, ADA2B and ADA3 subunits; SGF29 is interacting with GCN5 and ADA3 but not with ADA2B. These restraint data were combined to molecular modeling and a low-resolution interacting model for the human SAGA HAT subcomplex could be proposed, illustrating the potential of an integrative strategy using cross-linking and mass spectrometry for addressing the structural architecture of multiprotein complexes. 相似文献

Ion mobility coupled to mass spectrometry has been an important tool in the fields of chemical physics and analytical chemistry for decades, but its potential for interrogating the structure of proteins and multiprotein complexes has only recently begun to be realized. Today, ion mobility–mass spectrometry is often applied to the structural elucidation of protein assemblies that have failed high-throughput crystallization or NMR spectroscopy screens. Here, we highlight the technology, approaches and data that have led to this dramatic shift in use, including emerging trends such as the integration of ion mobility–mass spectrometry data with more classical (e.g., ‘bottom-up’) proteomics approaches for the rapid structural characterization of protein networks. 相似文献

SMC proteins are essential components of three protein complexes that are important for chromosome structure and function. The cohesin complex holds replicated sister chromatids together, whereas the condensin complex has an essential role in mitotic chromosome architecture. Both are involved in interphase genome organization. SMC-containing complexes are large (more than 650 kDa for condensin) and contain long anti-parallel coiled-coils. They are thus difficult subjects for conventional crystallographic and electron cryomicroscopic studies. Here, we have used amino acid-selective cross-linking and mass spectrometry combined with structure prediction to develop a full-length molecular draft three-dimensional structure of the SMC2/SMC4 dimeric backbone of chicken condensin. We assembled homology-based molecular models of the globular heads and hinges with the lengthy coiled-coils modelled in fragments, using numerous high-confidence cross-links and accounting for potential irregularities. Our experiments reveal that isolated condensin complexes can exist with their coiled-coil segments closely apposed to one another along their lengths and define the relative spatial alignment of the two anti-parallel coils. The centres of the coiled-coils can also approach one another closely in situ in mitotic chromosomes. In addition to revealing structural information, our cross-linking data suggest that both H2A and H4 may have roles in condensin interactions with chromatin. 相似文献

Recent work using chemical cross-linking to define interresidue distance constraints in proteins has shown that these constraints are useful for testing tertiary structural models. We applied this approach to the G-protein-coupled receptor bovine rhodopsin in its native membrane using lysine- and cysteine-targeted bifunctional cross-linking reagents. Cross-linked proteolytic peptides of rhodopsin were identified by combined liquid chromatography and FT-ICR mass spectrometry with automated data-reduction and assignment software. Tandem mass spectrometry was used to verify cross-link assignments and locate the exact sites of cross-link attachment. Cross-links were observed to form between 10 pairs of residues in dark-state rhodopsin. For each pair, cross-linkers with a range of linker lengths were tested to determine an experimental distance-of-closest-approach (DCA) between reactive side-chain atoms. In all, 28 cross-links were identified using seven different cross-linking reagents. Molecular mechanics procedures were applied to published crystal structure data to calculate energetically achievable theoretical DCAs between reactive atoms without altering the position of the protein backbone. Experimentally measured DCAs are generally in good agreement with the theoretical DCAs. However, a cross-link between C316 and K325 in the C-terminal region cannot be rationalized by DCA simulations and suggests that backbone reorientation relative to the crystal coordinates occurs on the timescale of cross-linking reactions. Biochemical and spectroscopic data from other studies have found that the C-terminal region is highly mobile in solution and not fully represented by X-ray crystallography data. Our results show that chemical cross-linking can provide reliable three-dimensional structural information and insight into local conformational dynamics in a membrane protein. 相似文献

Native mass spectrometry is an emerging technology that allows the topological investigation of intact protein complexes with high sensitivity and a theoretically unrestricted mass range. This unique tool provides complementary information to established technologies in structural biology, and also provides a link to high-throughput interactomics studies, which do not generate information on exact protein complex-composition, structure or dynamics. Here I review the current state of native mass spectrometry technology and discuss several important biological applications. I also describe current experimental challenges in native mass spectrometry, encouraging readers to contribute to solutions. 相似文献

Proteins are a remarkable class of molecules that exhibit wide diversity of shapes or topological features that underpin protein interactions and give rise to biological function. In addition to quantitation of abundance levels of proteins in biological systems under a variety of conditions, the field of proteome research has as a primary mission the assignment of function for proteins and if possible, illumination of factors that enable function. For many years, chemical cross-linking methods have been used to provide structural data on single purified proteins and purified protein complexes. However, these methods also offer the alluring possibility to extend capabilities to complex biological samples such as cell lysates or intact living cells where proteins may exhibit native topological features that do not exist in purified form. Recent efforts are beginning to provide glimpses of protein complexes and topologies in cells that suggest continued development will yield novel capabilities to view functional topological features of many proteins and complexes as they exist in cells, tissues, or other complex samples. This review will describe rationale, challenges, and a few success stories along the path of development of cross-linking technologies for measurement of in vivo protein interaction topologies. 相似文献

It is well accepted that high levels of high density lipoproteins (HDL) reduce the risk of atherosclerosis in humans. Apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) and apoA-II are the first and second most common protein constituents of HDL. Unlike apoA-I, detailed structural models for apoA-II in HDL are not available. Here, we present a structural model of apoA-II in reconstituted HDL (rHDL) based on two well established experimental approaches: chemical cross-linking/mass spectrometry (MS) and internal reflection infrared spectroscopy. Homogeneous apoA-II rHDL were reacted with a cross-linking agent to link proximal lysine residues. Upon tryptic digestion, cross-linked peptides were identified by electrospray mass spectrometry. 14 cross-links were identified and confirmed by tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS). Infrared spectroscopy indicated a beltlike molecular arrangement for apoA-II in which the protein helices wrap around the lipid bilayer rHDL disc. The cross-links were then evaluated on three potential belt arrangements. The data clearly refute a parallel model but support two antiparallel models, especially a "double hairpin" form. These models form the basis for understanding apoA-II structure in more complex HDL particles. 相似文献
