The 1H NMR spectrum of the low-spin, cyanide-ligated ferric complex of the myoglobin from the mollusc Aplysia limacina has been investigated. All of the resolved resonances from both the hemin and the proximal histidine have been assigned by a combination of isotope labeling, spin decoupling, analysis of differential paramagnetic relaxation, and nuclear Overhauser (NOE) experiments. The pattern of the heme contact shifts is unprecedented for low-spin ferric hemoproteins in exhibiting minimal rhombic asymmetry. This low in-plane asymmetry is correlated with the X-ray-determined orientation of the proximal histidyl imidazole plane relative to the heme and provides an important test case for the interpretation of hyperfine shifts of low-spin ferric hemoproteins. The bonding of the proximal histidine is shown to be similar to that in sperm whale myoglobin and is largely unperturbed by conformational transitions down to pH approximately 4. The two observed conformational transitions appear to be linked to the titration of the two heme propionate groups, which are suggested to exist in various orientations as a function of both pH and temperature. Heme orientational disorder in the ratio 5:1 was demonstrated by both isotope labeling and NOE experiments. The exchange rate with bulk water of the proximal histidyl labile ring proton is faster in Aplysia than in sperm whale myoglobin, consistent with a greater tendency for local unfolding of the heme pocket in the former protein. A similar increased heme pocket lability in Aplysia myoglobin has been noted in the rate of heme reorientation [Bellelli, A., Foon, R., Ascoli, F., & Brunori, M. (1987) Biochem. J. 246, 787-789]. 相似文献

Spectrophotometric titration of meso-tetra(n-propyl)hemin with sperm-whale apomyoglobin revealed their 1:1 complex formation. The purified reconstituted metmyoglobin bound with an equal molar amount of CN- and the second CN- ligation was not evidenced, suggesting that the hemin is not loosely attached to the globin surface, but incorporated into the heme pocket. The hyperfine-shifted proton NMR spectrum of the deoxy myoglobin revealed the proximal imidazole NH resonance at 85.1 ppm to indicate the formation of the Fe-N(His-F8) bond. The eight pyrrole protons of the hemin of myoglobin in the absence of external ligand were observed as a single peak at -16 ppm. This indicates the electronic symmetry of the hemin and the low-spin configuration of the heme iron. The pyrrole-proton NMR patterns of the cyanide and deoxy myoglobins were found to be remarkably temperature-dependent, which was consistently explained in terms of the free rotation of the prosthetic group. The NMR results suggest that introduction of meso-tetra(n-propyl)hemin totally disrupts the highly stereospecific heme-globin contacts, making the prosthetic group mobile in the heme cavity. 相似文献

The heme electronic structures of deoxymyoglobins (deoxy-Mbs) reconstituted with 13,17-bis(2-carboxylatoethyl)-3,8-diethyl-2,12,18-trimethyl-7-(trifluoromethyl)porphyrinatoiron(III) (7-PF), 13,17-bis(2-carboxylatoethyl)-3,7-difluoro-2,8,12,18-tetramethylporphyrinatoiron(III) (3,7-DF), and 13,17-bis(2-carboxylatoethyl)-3,8-diethyl-2-fluoro-7,12,18-trimethylporphyrinatoiron(III) (2-MF) have been characterized by 1H and 19F NMR. The analysis of heme methyl proton shift patterns of the hemes in their bis-cyano forms demonstrated that, owing to the substitution of a strongly electron-withdrawing perfluoromethyl group, CF3, to porphyrin, the porphyrin -system of 7-PF is more significantly distorted from four-fold symmetry than those of the ring-fluorinated hemes, 3,7-DF and 2-MF. The presence of the heme orientation disorder resulted in the observation of the two well-resolved 19F signals in the spectra of deoxy-Mbs possessing 7-PF and 2-MF. The 19F signals of deoxy-Mb possessing 7-PF exhibited a relatively large difference in paramagnetic shift (~30 ppm), despite their small paramagnetic shifts (~30 ppm), supporting the significant contribution of a spin delocalization mechanism in this Mb due to the d-electron configuration derived from the 5E ground state. On the other hand, 19F signals of deoxy-Mbs with 3,7-DF as well as 2-MF exhibited large paramagnetic shifts (~250 ppm) with a relatively small difference in the paramagnetic shift (~20 ppm), indicating the predominant contribution of spin delocalization, due to a d-electron configuration derived from the 5B2 ground state. These results demonstrate for the first time that the relative contributions of the orbital ground states derived from 5E and 5B2 states to the heme electronic structure in deoxy-Mb are affected by the distortion of the porphyrin -system exerted by chemical properties of the heme peripheral side-chains.Abbreviations 3,7-DF

Incorporation of the three synthetic hemins, Fe(III) meso-tetraalkylporphyrins with the methyl, ethyl, or n-propyl groups, into apomyoglobin was followed by spectrophotometry, and the stoichiometric complex formation was confirmed. The reconstituted myoglobins bind with an equimolar amount of cyanide to exhibit visible absorption peaks at 419, 570, and 608 nm. The spectral feature was independent of the cyanide concentrations. Proton NMR spectra of the cyanide complexes resolved the pyrrole-proton signals of the hemins in a -5 to -15-ppm region, which is comparable with that of the corresponding signals of deuterohemin-containing low-spin methemoproteins. These spectral observations indicate the presence of the NC-Fe-N(His-F8) structure in the presently reconstituted cyanide metmyoglobins. The pyrrole-proton NMR signals of the hemins in cyanide metmyoglobins appeared as a singlet, doublet, or quartet for the methyl, ethyl, or n-propyl hemin complexes, respectively. The systematic NMR spectral changes suggest the dynamic free rotation of the alkylhemins about the Fe-N(His-F8) bond. Temperature-dependent NMR spectral transition of the meso-tetraethylhemin-reconstituted myoglobin was consistent with thermally regulated dynamic free rotation of the hemin in the myoglobin heme pocket. 相似文献

The structure of the heme environment of horse heart ferric cytochrome c was examined in the presence of various nitrogenous bases at several temperatures with the aid of hyperfine shifted proton NMR spectra at 220 MHz. The resonance positions and line widths of the signals for the peripheral methyl groups of the heme exhibited distinctive features of its low-spin state characteristic of each external ligand.In the imidazole complex of ferric cytochrome c, remarkable line sharpening of the heme-linked proton signals was encountered on raising the temperature. This may be related to the apoprotein perturbation on the binding of external ligand to the heme iron. These spectral peculiarities were discussed in relation to the electronic structure of the heme, the basicity of the external ligand and the van der Waals contact interaction between heme side chains and apoprotein. 相似文献

The hyperfine shifted resonances arising from all four individual haem carbons of the paramagnetic low-spin met-cyano complex of sperm whale myoglobin have been clearly identified and assigned for the first time with the aid of 1H-13C heteronuclear chemical shift correlated spectroscopy. Alteration of the in-plane symmetry of the electronic structure of haem induced by the ligation of proximal histidyl imidazole spreads the haem carbon resonances to 32 ppm at 22 degrees C, indicating the sensitivity of those resonances to the haem electronic/molecular structure. Those resonances are potentially powerful probes in characterizing the nature of haem electronic structure. 相似文献

The EPR signals of oxidized and partially reduced cytochrome oxidase have been studied at pH 6.4, 7.4, and 8.4. Isolated cytochrome oxidase in both non-ionic detergent solution and in phospholipid vesicles has been used in reductive titrations with ferrocytochrome c.The g values of the low- and high-field parts of the low-spin heme signal in oxidized cytochrome oxidase are shown to be pH dependent. In reductive titrations, low-spin heme signals at g 2.6 as well as rhombic and nearly axial high-spin heme signals are found at pH 8.4, while the only heme signals appearing at pH 6.4 are two nearly axial g 6 signals. This pH dependence is shifted in the vesicles.The g 2.6 signals formed in titrations with ferrocytochrome c at pH 8.4 correspond maximally to 0.25–0.35 heme per functional unit (aa3) of cytochrome oxidase in detergent solution and to 0.22 heme in vesicle oxidase. The total amount of high-spin heme signals at g 6 found in partially reduced enzyme is 0.45–0.6 at pH 6.4 and 0.1–0.2 at pH 8.4. In titrations of cytochrome oxidase in detergent solution the g 1.45 and g 2 signals disappear with fewer equivalents of ferrocytochrome c added at pH 8.4 compared to pH 6.4.The results indicate that the environment of the hemes varies with the pH. One change is interpreted as cytochrome a3 being converted from a high-spin to a low-spin form when the pH is increased. Possibly this transition is related to a change of a liganded H2O to OH? with a concomitant decrease of the redox potential. Oxidase in phosphatidylcholine vesicles is found to behave as if it experiences a pH, one unit lower than that of the medium. 相似文献

The iron complex of 3,7-diethyl-2,8-dimethylporphyrin was incorporated into horse heart apomyoglobin to investigate the influence of peripheral substitution on artificial heme rotation. The hyperfine-shifted 1H NMR spectrum of the reconstituted deoxymyoglobin (rMb) revealed the proximal imidazole N-H resonance at 82.5 ppm to indicate the formation of the Fe--N (His93) bond. The pyrrole-protons of the hemin of myoglobin in the absence of external ligand appeared as four resonances between -10 and -18 ppm, indicating a mainly low-spin ferric hemin, with a ligated distal histidine (His64). This also indicates the lost of the symmetry of the hemin, according to an absence of free rotation of the prosthetic group. The 1H NMR spectrum of reconstituted rMbCO revealed a set of four pyrrole-protons and a set of four meso-protons. Accordingly, the prosthetic group without acid side chains interacts specifically with the surrounding globin showing a unique heme orientation in the 1H NMR time-scale, despite the presence of only four alkyl substituents on the porphine ring. This also suggests that two ethyl groups are large enough to avoid the free rotation movement of the heme. 相似文献

Neuroglobin, a new member of hemoprotein family, can reversibly bind oxygen and take part in many biological processes such as enzymatic reaction, signal transduction and the mitochondria function. Different from myoglobin and hemoglobin, it has a hexacoordinated heme environment, with histidyl imidazole of proximal His96(F8) and distal His64(E7) directly bound to the metal ion. In the present work, solution 1H NMR spectroscopy was employed to investigate the electronic structure of heme center of wild-type met-human neuroglobin. The resonances of heme protons and key residues in the heme pocket were assigned. Two heme orientations resulting from a 180° rotation about the α-γ-meso axis with a population ratio about 2:1 were observed. Then the 1H NMR chemical shifts of the ferriheme methyl groups were used to predict orientations of the axial ligand. The obtained axial ligand plane angle φ is consistent with that from the molecular dynamics simulation but not with those from the crystal data. Compared with mouse neuroglobin, the obtained average ligand orientation of human neuroglobin reflects the changeability of heme environment for the Ngb family. 相似文献

Summary
Vitreoscilla contained a homodimeric bacterial hemoglobin (VtHb). The purification of this protein yielded VtmetHb which exhibited electronic and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectra, showing that it existed predominantly in a high-spin ferric form, both axial and rhombic components being present. The preparations also contained variable amounts of low-spin components. There was no evidence that these high-spin and low-spin forms were in equilibrium. The former were reducible by NADH catalyzed by the NADH-metVtHb reductase, and the latter were not. High ionic strength and high pH led to the formation of low-spin metVtHb; both treatments were reversible. Cyanide and imidazole liganded to VtHb resulted in the conversion of high-spin to low-spin ferric heme centers, each with characteristic electronic and EPR spectra. Some preparations of VtHb exhibited EPR signals consistent with a sulfur ligand bound to the ferric site. When VtHb was treated with NADH plus the reductase in the presence of oxygen, the intensity of the high-spin EPR signals decreased significantly. No reduction occurred in the absence of oxygen, suggesting a possible role for the superoxide anion. Dithionite treatment of VtHb resulted in a slow reduction, but the main product of the reaction of dithionite-reduced VtHb with oxygen was VtmetHb, not VtHbO2. EPR spectra of whole cells ofVitreoscilla exhibited a variety of intense signals at low and high magnetic field, theg-values being consistent with the presence of high-spin ferric heme proteins, in addition to an iron-containing superoxide dismutase (FeSOD) and iron-sulfur proteins. EPR spectra of the cytosol fraction ofVitreoscilla showed the expected resonances for VtmetHb and FeSOD.Abbreviations

Sperm whale myoglobin was reconstituted with 1,4,5,8-tetramethylhemin. The hyperfine-shifted proton NMR signals from the prosthetic group exhibit remarkable pattern changes around 15 degrees C, while the globin resonances are normal to obey the Curie law. The NMR anomaly specifically observed for the heme signals suggests a slow to rapid rotational transition of the hemin about the iron-histidine bond. The temperature-dependent pattern changes were quantitatively analyzed by a dynamic NMR method. Two sets of analyses with the heme-methyl and pyrrole-proton lines consistently afforded delta H not equal to = 16.3 kcal/mol, delta S not equal to = 14.0 e.u., delta G not equal to = 12.1 kcal/mol at 298 K, and a frequency of 90 degrees heme rotation 5600 s-1 at 20 degrees C. The relatively large activation entropy suggests that structural rearrangements at the direct heme vicinity are involved and that efficient heme rotation is accomplished by a number of fluctuative local heme-globin contacts within a conserved crevice structure. 相似文献

Bis-methionyl coordination in the crystal structure of the heme-binding domain of the streptococcal cell surface protein Shp 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Surface proteins Shr, Shp, and the ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter HtsABC are believed to make up the machinery for heme uptake in Streptococcus pyogenes. Shp transfers its heme to HtsA, the lipoprotein component of HtsABC, providing the only experimentally demonstrated example of direct heme transfer from a surface protein to an ABC transporter in Gram-positive bacteria. To understand the structural basis of heme transfer in this system, the heme-binding domain of Shp (Shp180) was crystallized, and its structure determined to a resolution of 2.1 Å. Shp180 exhibits an immunoglobulin-like β-sandwich fold that has been recently found in other pathogenic bacterial cell surface heme-binding proteins, suggesting that the mechanisms of heme acquisition are conserved. Shp shows minimal amino acid sequence identity to these heme-binding proteins and the structure of Shp180 reveals a unique heme-iron coordination with the axial ligands being two methionine residues from the same Shp molecule. A negative electrostatic surface of protein structure surrounding the heme pocket may serve as a docking interface for heme transfer from the more basic outer cell wall heme receptor protein Shr. The crystal structure of Shp180 reveals two exogenous, weakly bound hemins, which form a large interface between the two Shp180 molecules in the asymmetric unit. These “extra” hemins form a stacked pair with a structure similar to that observed previously for free hemin dimers in aqueous solution. The propionates of the protein-bound heme coordinate to the iron atoms of the exogenous hemin dimer, contributing to the stability of the protein interface. Gel filtration and analytical ultracentrifugation studies indicate that both full-length Shp and Shp180 are monomeric in dilute aqueous solution. 相似文献

The solution 500-MHz 1H NMR spectral parameters for ferricytochrome b562, a soluble 12-kDa electron carrier from Escherichia coli with axial His/Met coordination, are shown to be strongly influenced by protein concentration and ionic strength at low pH and 25 degrees C in a manner consistent with significant aggregation at low ionic strength. At high ionic strength a well-resolved 1H NMR spectrum reveals over 40 hyperfine-shifted resonances which arise from two isomeric species in the ratio 2:1. 2D COSY and NOESY maps at 25 degrees C for the hyperfine-shifted resonances allow the assignment of a number of axial His resonances and all heme peripheral substituent peaks. The resulting asymmetric heme contact shift patterns, together with the halving of the number of lines when reconstituting with 2-fold symmetric hemin, demonstrate the molecular basis of the solution heterogeneity to be heme orientational disorder. The strongly upfield-shifted axial Met-7 resonances, characteristic of low-spin ferricytochromes c with His/Met ligation, appear upfield only at very low temperatures. At elevated temperatures, all resonances, in particular those of the axial Met, move strongly downfield. Detailed analysis of the deviation from Curie behavior for different functional groups demonstrates the presence of a low spin in equilibrium high spin equilibrium with an intact His-Fe-Met coordination. The weaker axial field in ferricytochrome b562, relative to the purely low-spin ferricytochromes c, is attributed to a perturbed iron-Met bond. The contact shifts for a coordinated Met in the high-spin state are estimated. A link between equatorial hemin and axial ligand interactions is indicated by a differential population of the high-spin form for the two hemin orientations. 相似文献

Two-dimensional 1H NMR spectroscopy over a range of temperature through thermal unfolding has been applied to the low-spin, ferric cyanide complex of myoglobin from Aplysia limacina to search for intermediates in the unfolding and to characterize the effect of temperature on the magnetic properties and electronic structure of the heme iron. The observation of strictly linear behavior from 5 to 80 C degrees through the unfolding transition for all hyperfine-shifted resonances indicates the absence of significant populations of intermediate states to the cooperative unfolding with Tm approximately 80 degrees C. The magnetic anisotropies and orientation of the magnetic axes for the complete range of temperatures were also determined for the complex. The anisotropies have very similar magnitudes, and exhibit the expected characteristic temperature dependence, previously observed in the isoelectronic sperm whale myoglobin complex. In contrast to sperm whale Mb, where the orientation of the magnetic axis was completely temperature-independent, the tilt of the major magnetic axis, which correlates with the Fe-CN tilt, decreases at high temperature in Aplysia limacina Mb, indicating a molecular structure that is conserved with temperature, although more plastic than that of sperm whale Mb. The pattern of contact shifts reflects a conserved Fe-His(F8) bond and pi-spin delocalization into the heme, as expected for the orientation of the axial His imidazole. 相似文献

Individual assignments of the 1H n.m.r. lines of heme c in reduced and oxidized cytochrome c-551 from were obtained by nuclear Overhauser enhancement and saturation transfer experiments. Comparison with the corresponding data on horse heart cytochrome c showed that the locations of high spin density on the heme c periphery as well as the in-plane principal axes x and y of the electronic g-tensor are rotated by approximately 90° in ferricytochrome c-551 relative to horse ferricytochrome c. High spin density in ferricytochrome c-551 is thus localized on the pyrrole ring III. While this pyrrole ring is well shielded in the interior of mammalian-type cytochromes c, it is more easily accessible in cytochrome c-551. It is suggested that this evolutionary change of the heme c electronic structure would be compatible with the hypothesis that the electron transfer in both species is via solvent exposed peripheral ring carbon atoms. 相似文献

Fluorine atoms are often incorporated into drug molecules as part of the lead optimization process in order to improve affinity
or modify undesirable metabolic and pharmacokinetic profiles. From an NMR perspective, the abundance of fluorinated drug leads
provides an exploitable niche for structural studies using 19F NMR in the drug discovery process. As 19F has no interfering background signal from biological sources, 19F NMR studies of fluorinated drugs bound to their protein receptors can yield easily interpretable and unambiguous structural
constraints. 19F can also be selectively incorporated into proteins to obtain additional constraints for structural studies. Despite these
advantages, 19F NMR has rarely been exploited for structural studies due to its broad lines in macromolecules and their ligand complexes,
leading to weak signals in 1H/19F heteronuclear NOE experiments. Here we demonstrate several different experimental strategies that use 19F NMR to obtain ligand–protein structural constraints for ligands bound to the anti-apoptotic protein Bcl-xL, a drug target
for anti-cancer therapy. These examples indicate the applicability of these methods to typical structural problems encountered
in the drug development process. 相似文献

1H nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy was used to assign the hyperfine-shifted resonances and determine the position of a side chain in the heme cavity of wild-type rat apocytochrome b5 reconstituted with a series of synthetic hemins possessing systematically perturbed carboxylate side chains. The hemins included protohemin derivatives with individually removed or pairwise shortened and lengthened carboxylate side chains, as well as (propionate)n(methyl)8-nporphine-iron(III) isomers with n = 1-3 designed to force occupation of nonnative propionate sites. The resonance assignments were effected on the basis of available empirical heme contact shift correlations and steady-state nuclear Overhauser effect measurements in the low-spin oxidized proteins. The failure to detect holoproteins with certain hemins dictates that the stable holoproteins, unlike the case of myoglobin, demand the axial iron-His bonds and cannot accommodate carboxylate side chains at interior positions in the binding pocket. Hence, the heme pocket interior in cytochrome b5 is judged much less polar and less sterically accommodating than that of myoglobin. The propionate occupational preference was greatest as the native 7-propionate site, but also possible at the nonnative crystallographic 5-methyl or 8-methyl positions. Only for a propionate at the crystallographic 8-methyl position was a significant perturbation of the native molecular/electronic structure observed, and this was attributed to an alternative propionate-protein hydrogen bond at the crystallographic 8-methyl position. The structures of the transient protein complexes detected only shortly after reconstitution reveal that the initial encounter complexes during assembly of holoprotein from apoprotein and hemin involve one of the two alternate propionate-protein links at either the 7-propionate or native 8-methyl position. In a monopropionate hemin, this leads to the characterization of a new type of heme orientational disorder involving rotation about a N-Fe-N axis. 相似文献

Identification of the titrating group in the heme cavity of myoglobin. Evidence for the heme-protein pi-pi interaction 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The pH dependence of the proton NMR chemical shifts of met-cyano and deoxy forms of native and reconstituted myoglobins reflects a structural transition in the heme pocket modulated by a single proton with pK 5.1-5.6. Comparison of this pH dependence of sperm whale and elephant myoglobin and that of the former protein reconstituted with esterified hemin eliminates both the distal histidine as well as the heme propionates as the titrating residue. Reconstitution of sperm whale met-cyano myoglobin with hemin modified at the 2,4-positions leads to a systematic variation in the pK for the structural transition, thus indicating the presence of a coupling between the titrating group and the heme pi system. The results are consistent with histidine FG3 (His-FG3) being the titrating group, and a donor-acceptor pi-pi interaction between its imidazole and the heme is proposed. 相似文献
