Stopped-flow measurements have been employed to study the kinetics of the conformational changes in TetR (B) induced by tetracycline binding with and without Mg(2+) ions. Result of stopped-flow fluorometry measurements at pH 8.0 indicate conformational changes in the helix-turn-helix motif in the N-terminal domain and in the C-terminal inducer binding domain. Binding of tetracycline (Tc) to TetR in the absence of Mg(2+) can be described by a simple kinetics process, which is limited to the first step association without any unimolecular conformational change step upon Tc binding. The rate constants for this process are equal to 2.0 x 10(5) M(-)(1) s(-)(1) and 2.1 s(-)(1) for the forward and backward reaction, respectively, and gave the binding constant K(a) = 0.96 x 10(5) M(-)(1). The kinetics of [Tc-Mg](+) binding to TetR can be described by reactions in which the first step describes the association characterized by the rate constants k(a) = 1.4 x 10(5) M(-)(1) s(-)(1) and k(d) = 2.2 x 10(-)(2) s(-)(1) and binding constant K(a) = 6.3 x 10(6) M(-)(1). The first step of [Tc-Mg](+) association is followed by at least three conformational change steps, which occur in the inducer binding site and then propagate to the surroundings of Trp75 and Trp43 residues. The rate constants for the forward, k(c), and backward, k(-)(c), reaction for each of these conformational steps have been determined. The thermodynamics of the binding of tetracycline with and without Mg(2+) to TetR was investigated by isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) at pH 8.0 and 25 degrees C. The measurement shows that TetR dimer possesses two equivalent binding sites for tetracycline, characterized by binding constant K(a) = 9.0 x 10(6) M(-)(1) and K(a) = 7.0 x 10(4) M(-)(1) for Tc with and without Mg(2+), respectively. The binding of the inducer to TetR, in the presence and absence of Mg(2+) ion, is an enthalpy-driven reaction characterized by DeltaH = -51 kJ mol(-)(1) and DeltaH = -33 kJ mol(-)(1), respectively. The entropy change, DeltaS, for the interaction in the presence of Mg(2+) is equal to -38.9 J K(-)(1) mol(-)(1), and for the tetracycline alone, it was estimated at -17.6 J K(-)(1) mol(-)(1). 相似文献

The phosphorylation of (Na+, K+)ATPase from the electric organ of the electric eel is dependent on Mg2+. The amount of phosphoenzyme formed was increased by K+ and decreased by Na+. Kinetic analyses indicate that a ternary complex of ATPase, Pi and Mg2+ is formed prior to phosphorylation of the protein. Calorimetric studies revealed extraordinarily large enthalpy changes associated with the binding of Mg2+ (-49 kcal/mol) and of Pi (-42 kcal/mol), indicating a thermodynamically significant conformational change in the enzyme. The dissociation constant for the binding of Mg2+ and Pi derived from calorimetric measurements is in good agreement with the value obtained from the kinetic studies. These results indicate that ion binding induces a conformational change in the enzyme which is a prerequisite for phosphorylation by Pi. 相似文献

The inhibition effect of metal ions on beta amylase activity was studied. The inhibitor-binding constant (Ki) was determined by spectrophotometric and isothermal titration calorimetric (ITC) methods. The binding of calcium, magnesium and zinc ion as inhibitors at the active site of barley beta amylase was studied at pH = 4.8 (sodium acetate 16 mM) and T = 300K. The Ki and enthalpy of binding for calcium (13.4, 13.1 mM and -14.3 kJ/mol), magnesium (18.6, 17.8mM and -17.7 kJ/mol) and zinc (17.5, 17.7 mM and -20.0 kJ/mol) were found by spectrophotometric and ITC methods respectively. 相似文献

The binding of UDP-N-acetylglucosamine (UDPNAG) to the enzyme UDP-N-acetylglucosamine enolpyruvyl transferase (MurA) was studied in the absence and presence of the antibiotic fosfomycin by isothermal titration calorimetry. Fosfomycin binds covalently to MurA in the presence of UDPNAG and also in its absence as demonstrated by MALDI mass spectrometry. The covalent attachment of fosfomycin affects the thermodynamic parameters of UDPNAG binding significantly: In the absence of fosfomycin the binding of UDPNAG is enthalpically driven (DeltaH = -35.5 kJ mol(-1) at 15 degrees C) and opposed by an unfavorable entropy change (DeltaS = -25 J mol(-1) K(-1)). In the presence of covalently attached fosfomycin the binding of UDPNAG is entropically driven (DeltaS = 187 J mol(-1)K(-1) at 15 degrees C) and associated with unfavorable changes in enthalpy (DeltaH = 28.8 kJ mol(-1)). Heat capacities for UDPNAG binding in the absence or presence of fosfomycin were -1.87 and -2.74 kJ mol(-1) K(-1), respectively, indicating that most ( approximately 70%) of the conformational changes take place upon formation of the UDPNAG-MurA binary complex. The major contribution to the heat capacity of ligand binding is thought to be due to changes in the solvent-accessible surface area. However, associated conformational changes, if any, also contribute to the experimentally measured magnitude of the heat capacity. The changes in solvent-accessible surface area were calculated from available 3D structures, yielding a DeltaC(p) of -1.3 kJ mol(-1) K(-1); i.e., the experimentally determined heat capacity exceeds the calculated one. This implies that other thermodynamic factors exert a large influence on the heat capacity of protein-ligand interactions. 相似文献

Tyrosinase plays a central role in biological pigment formation, and hence knowledge of tyrosinase catalytic mechanisms and regulation may have medical, cosmetic, and agricultural applications. We found in this study that arabinose significantly inhibited tyrosinase, and this was accompanied by conformational changes in enzyme structure. Kinetic analysis showed that arabinose-mediated inactivation followed first-order kinetics, and single and multiple classes of rate constants were measured. Arabinose displayed a mixed-type inhibitory mechanism with K(i)=0.22±0.07 mM. Measurements of intrinsic and ANS-binding fluorescence showed that arabinose induced tyrosinase to unfold and expose inner hydrophobic regions. We simulated the docking between tyrosinase and arabinose (binding energies were -26.28 kcal/mol for Dock6.3 and -2.02 kcal/mol for AutoDock4.2) and results suggested that arabinose interacts mostly with His61, Asn260, and Met280. The present strategy of predicting tyrosinase inhibition by simulation of docking by hydroxyl groups may prove useful in screening for potential tyrosinase inhibitors, as shown here for arabinose. 相似文献

Sequence-specific DNA recognition by bacterial integrase Tn916 involves structural rearrangements of both the protein and the DNA duplex. Energetic contributions from changes of conformation, thermal motions and soft vibrational modi of the protein, the DNA, and the complex significantly influence the energetic profile of protein-DNA association. Understanding the energetics of such a complicated system requires not only a detailed calorimetric investigation of the association reaction but also of the components in isolation. Here we report on the conformational stability of the integrase Tn916 DNA binding domain and its cognate 13 base pair target DNA duplex. Using a combination of temperature and denaturant induced unfolding experiments, we find that the 74-residue DNA binding domain is compact and unfolds cooperatively with only small deviation from two-state behavior. Scanning calorimetry reveals an increase of the heat capacity of the native protein attributable to increased thermal fluctuations. From the combined calorimetric and spectroscopic experiments, the parameters of protein unfolding are T(m) = 43.8 +/- 0.3 degrees C, DeltaH(m) = 255 +/- 18 kJ mol(-1), DeltaS(m) = 0.80 +/- 0.06 kJ mol(-1), and DeltaC(p) = 5.0 +/- 0.8 kJ K(-1) mol(-1). The DNA target duplex displays a thermodynamic signature typical of short oligonucleotide duplexes: significant heat absorption due to end fraying and twisting precedes cooperative unfolding and dissociation. The parameters for DNA unfolding and dissociation are DeltaH(m) = 335 +/- 4 kJ mol(-1) and DeltaC(p) = 2.7 +/- 0.9 kJ K(-(1) mol(-1). The results reported here have been instrumental in interpreting the thermodynamic features of the association reaction of the integrase with its 13 base pair target DNA duplex reported in the accompanying paper [Milev et al. (2003) Biochemistry 42, 3481-3491]. 相似文献

The binding of a K+ competitive ligand, 2-methyl,8-(phenylmethoxy)imidazo(1,2-a)pyridine 3-acetonitrile, to the gastric (H+ + K+)-ATPase 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
2-Methyl,8-(phenylmethoxy)imidazo(1,2-a)pyridine 3-acetonitrile (SCH 28080) is a freely reversible K+ site inhibitor of the gastric (H+ + K+)-ATPase. In the presence of 2 mMMgSO4, [14C]SCH 28080 bound saturably to gastric vesicle preparations containing the (H+ + K+)-ATPase and was displaced by lumenal K+. A binding stoichiometry of 2.2 +/- 0.1 mol of SCH 28080/mol of catalytic phosphorylation sites was observed. The affinity of SCH 28080 binding was increased approximately 10-fold (to 45 nM) in the presence of 2 mM ATP. High affinity binding also occurred with 2 microM ATP but not with up to 200 microM D-[beta, gamma-CH2]ATP, suggesting that high affinity binding was to a phosphorylated form of the enzyme. In the presence of ATP, the association rate constant was linearly related to the concentration of SCH 28080. However, the association and dissociation rates of SCH 28080 binding were slow, especially at low temperature (at 1.5 degrees C half-maximal binding of 50 nM SCH 28080 was calculated to occur after 232 s). Binding appeared to be predominantly entropy driven with a high activation energy (40 kJ/mol at 37 degrees C). In the absence of ATP, the association rate constant was not linearly related to the concentration of SCH 28080, suggesting that a conformational change in the enzyme was required before binding could occur. 相似文献

Using inhibition kinetics and computational simulation, we studied the reversible inhibition of tyrosinase by isophthalic acid (IPA). IPA inhibited tyrosinase in a complex manner with K(i)=17.8 ± 1.8mM. Measurements of intrinsic and ANS-binding fluorescence showed that IPA induced no changes in tertiary protein structure. For further insight, we predicted the 3D structure of tyrosinase and used a docking algorithm to simulate binding between tyrosinase and IPA. Simulation was successful (binding energies for Dock6.3: -25.19 kcal/mol and for AutoDock4.2: -4.28 kcal/mol), suggesting that IPA interacts with PRO175 or VAL190. This strategy of predicting tyrosinase inhibition based on hydroxyl group number and orientation may prove useful for the screening of potential tyrosinase inhibitors. 相似文献

The binding mechanism of Mg(2+) at the M3 site of human placental alkaline phosphatase was found to be a slow-binding process with a low binding affinity (K(Mg(app.)) = 3.32 mM). Quenching of the intrinsic fluorescence of the Mg(2+)-free and Mg(2+)-containing enzymes by acrylamide showed almost identical dynamic quenching constant (K(sv) = 4.44 +/- 0.09 M(-1)), indicating that there is no gross conformational difference between the M3-free and the M3-Mg(2+) enzymes. However, Zn(2+) was found to have a high affinity with the M3 site (K(Zn(app.)) = 0.11 mM) and was observed as a time-dependent inhibitor of the enzyme. The dependence of the observed transition rate from higher activity to lower activity (k(obs)) at different zinc concentrations resulted in a hyperbolic curve suggesting that zinc ion induces a slow conformational change of the enzyme, which locks the enzyme in a conformation (M3'-Zn) having an extremely high affinity for the Zn(2+) (K*(Zn(app.)) = 0.33 microM). The conformation of the M3'-Zn enzyme, however, is unfavorable for the catalysis by the enzyme. Both Mg(2+) activation and Zn(2+) inhibition of the enzyme are reversible processes. Structural information indicates that the M3 site, which is octahedrally coordinated to Mg(2+), has been converted to a distorted tetrahedral coordination when zinc ion substitutes for magnesium ion at the M3 site. This conformation of the enzyme has a small dynamic quenching constant for acrylamide (K(sv) = 3.86 +/- 0.04 M(-1)), suggesting a conformational change. Both Mg(2+) and phosphate prevent the enzyme from reaching this inactive structure. GTP plays an important role in reactivating the Zn-inhibited enzyme activity. We propose that, under physiological conditions, magnesium ion may play an important modulatory role in the cell for protecting the enzyme by retaining a favorable geometry of the active site needed for catalysis. 相似文献

The interaction of the dinucleotide inhibitor 5'-phosphothymidine(3',5')pyrophosphate adenosine 3'-phosphate (pTppAp) with bovine pancreatic ribonuclease A (RNase A) was characterized by calorimetry and solution NMR spectroscopy. Calorimetric data show that binding of pTppAp to RNase A is exothermic (DeltaH = -60.1 +/- 4.1 kJ/mol) with a dissociation constant of 16 nM at 298 K. At this temperature, the binding results in an entropy loss (TDeltaS = -16.8 +/- 7.3 kJ/mol) that is more favorable than that with the product analogue, 2'-CMP (TDeltaS = -31.3 +/- 0.9 kJ/mol). Temperature-dependent calorimetric experiments give a DeltaC(p) for ligand binding of -230 +/- 100 J/mol K. Binding of pTppAp results in noticeable effects on the backbone amide chemical shifts and dynamics. Amide backbone (15)N NMR spin-relaxation studies were performed on both apo RNase A and RNase A/pTppAp as a function of temperature. At each temperature, the model-free-determined order parameters, S(2), were significantly higher for RNase A/pTppAp than for the apo enzyme indicating a decrease in the conformational entropy of the protein upon ligand binding. Furthermore, the magnitude of this difference varies along the amino acid sequence specifically locating the entropic changes. The temperature dependence of S(2) at each residue enabled assessment of the local heat capacity changes (DeltaC(p)) from ligand binding. In an overall, average sense, DeltaC(p) for the protein backbone, determined from the NMR dynamics measurements, did not differ between apo RNase A and RNase A/pTppAp indicating that backbone dynamics contribute little to DeltaC(p) for protein-ligand interactions in this system. However, residue-by-residue comparison of the temperature-dependent change in entropy (DeltaS(B)) between free and bound forms reveals nonzero contributions to DeltaC(p) at individual sites. The balance of positive and negative changes reveals a redistribution of energetics upon binding. Furthermore, experiment and semiempirical estimates suggest that a large negative DeltaC(p) should accompany binding of pTppAp, and we conclude that this contribution must arise from factors other than amide backbone dynamics. 相似文献

CaBP1 (calcium-binding protein 1) is a 19.4-kDa protein of the EF-hand superfamily that modulates the activity of Ca(2+) channels in the brain and retina. Here we present data from NMR, microcalorimetry, and other biophysical studies that characterize Ca(2+) binding, Mg(2+) binding, and structural properties of recombinant CaBP1 purified from Escherichia coli. Mg(2+) binds constitutively to CaBP1 at EF-1 with an apparent dissociation constant (K(d)) of 300 microm. Mg(2+) binding to CaBP1 is enthalpic (DeltaH = -3.725 kcal/mol) and promotes NMR spectral changes, indicative of a concerted Mg(2+)-induced conformational change. Ca(2+) binding to CaBP1 induces NMR spectral changes assigned to residues in EF-3 and EF-4, indicating localized Ca(2+)-induced conformational changes at these sites. Ca(2+) binds cooperatively to CaBP1 at EF-3 and EF-4 with an apparent K(d) of 2.5 microM and a Hill coefficient of 1.3. Ca(2+) binds to EF-1 with low affinity (K(d) >100 microM), and no Ca(2+) binding was detected at EF-2. In the absence of Mg(2+) and Ca(2+), CaBP1 forms a flexible molten globule-like structure. Mg(2+) and Ca(2+) induce distinct conformational changes resulting in protein dimerization and markedly increased folding stability. The unfolding temperatures are 53, 74, and 76 degrees C for apo-, Mg(2+)-bound, and Ca(2+)-bound CaBP1, respectively. Together, our results suggest that CaBP1 switches between structurally distinct Mg(2+)-bound and Ca(2+)-bound states in response to Ca(2+) signaling. Both conformational states may serve to modulate the activity of Ca(2+) channel targets. 相似文献

Tyrosinase inhibition studies are needed due to the agricultural and medicinal applications. For probing effective inhibitors of tyrosinase, a combination of computational prediction and enzymatic assay via kinetics were important. We predicted the 3D structure of tyrosinase from Agaricus bisporus, used a docking algorithm to simulate binding between tyrosinase and terephthalic acid (TPA) and studied the reversible inhibition of tyrosinase by TPA. Simulation was successful (binding energies for Autodock4 = -1.54 and Fred2.0 = -3.19 kcal/mol), suggesting that TPA interacts with histidine residues that are known to bind with copper ions at the active site. TPA inhibited tyrosinase in a mixed-type manner with a K ( i ) = 11.01 ± 2.12 mM. Measurements of intrinsic and ANS-binding fluorescences showed that TPA induced no changes in tertiary structure. The present study suggested that the strategy of predicting tyrosinase inhibition based on hydroxyl groups and orientation may prove useful for screening of potential tyrosinase inhibitors. 相似文献

We report the first stopped-flow fluorescence analysis of transition metal binding (Co(2+), Ni(2+), Cu(2+), and Zn(2+)) to the H-N-H endonuclease motif within colicin E9 (the E9 DNase). The H-N-H consensus forms the active site core of a number of endonuclease groups but is also structurally homologous to the so-called treble-clef motif, a ubiquitous zinc-binding motif found in a wide variety of metalloproteins. We find that all the transition metal ions tested bind via multistep mechanisms. Binding was further dissected for Ni(2+) and Zn(2+) ions through the use of E9 DNase single tryptophan mutants, which demonstrated that most steps reflect conformational rearrangements that occur after the bimolecular collision, many common to the two metals, while one appears specific to zinc. The kinetically derived equilibrium dissociation constants (K(d)) for transition metal binding to the E9 DNase agree with previously determined equilibrium measurements and so confirm the validity of the derived kinetic mechanisms. Zn(2+) binds tightest to the enzyme (K(d) approximately 10(-)(9) M) but does not support endonuclease activity, whereas the other metals (K(d) approximately 10(-)(6) M) are active in endonuclease assays implying that the additional step seen for Zn(2+) traps the enzyme in an inactive but high affinity state. Metal-induced conformational changes are likely to be a conserved feature of H-N-H/treble clef motif proteins since similar Zn(2+)-induced, multistep binding was observed for other colicin DNases. Moreover, they appear to be independent both of the conformational heterogeneity that is naturally present within the E9 DNase at equilibrium, as well as the conformational changes that accompany the binding of its cognate inhibitor protein Im9. 相似文献

We have examined the influence of monovalent and divalent cations on the secondary structure of bovine alpha-lactalbumin at neutral pH using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. Our present studies are based on previously reported amide I' component band assignments for this protein [Prestrelski, S. J., Byler, D. M., & Thompson, M. P. (1991) Int. J. Pept. Protein Res. 37, 508-512]. The results indicate that upon dissolution, alpha-lactalbumin undergoes a small, but significant, time-dependent conformational change, regardless of the ions present. Additionally, these studies provide the first quantitative measure of the well-known secondary structural change which accompanies calcium binding. Results indicate that removal of Ca2+ from holo alpha-lactalbumin results in local unfolding of the Ca(2+)-binding loop; the spectra indicate that approximately 16% of the backbone chain changes from a rigid coordination complex to an unordered loop. We have also examined the effects of binding of several other metal ions. Our studies have revealed that binding of Mn2+ to apo alpha-lactalbumin (Ca(2+)-free), while inducing a small, but significant, conformational change, does not cause the alpha-lactalbumin backbone conformation to change to that of the holo (Ca(2+)-bound) form as characterized by infrared spectroscopy. Similar changes to those induced by Mn2+ are observed upon binding of Na+ to apo alpha-lactalbumin, and furthermore, even at very high concentrations (0.2 M), Na+ does not stabilize a structure similar to the holo form. Binding of Zn2+ to the apo form of alpha-lactalbumin does not result in significant backbone conformational changes, suggesting a rigid Zn(2+)-binding site.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS) 相似文献

Two high affinity Zn(2+) binding sites were engineered in the otherwise Zn(2+)-insensitive rat gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA) transporter-1 (rGAT-1) based on structural information derived from Zn(2+) binding sites engineered previously in the homologous dopamine transporter. Introduction of a histidine (T349H) at the extracellular end of transmembrane segment (TM) 7 together with a histidine (E370H) or a cysteine (Q374C) at the extracellular end of TM 8 resulted in potent inhibition of [3H]GABA uptake by Zn(2+) (IC(50) = 35 and 44 microM, respectively). Upon expression in Xenopus laevis oocytes it was similarly observed that Zn(2+) was a potent inhibitor of the GABA-induced current (IC(50) = 21 microM for T349H/E370H and 51 microM for T349H/Q374C), albeit maximum inhibition was only approximately 40% in T349H/E370H versus approximately 90% in T349H/Q374C. In the wild type, Zn(2+) did not affect the Na(+)-dependent transient currents elicited by voltage jumps and thought to reflect capacitive charge movements associated with Na(+) binding. However, in both mutants Zn(2+) caused a reduction of the inward transient currents upon jumping to hyperpolarized potentials as reflected in rightward-shifted Q/V relationships. This suggests that Zn(2+) is inhibiting transporter function by stabilizing the outward-facing Na(+)-bound state. Translocation of lithium by the transporter does not require GABA binding and analysis of this uncoupled Li(+) conductance revealed a potent inhibition by Zn(2+) in T349H/E370H, whereas surprisingly the T349H/Q374C leak was unaffected. This differential effect supports that the leak conductance represents a unique operational mode of the transporter involving conformational changes different from those of the substrate translocation process. Altogether our results support both an evolutionary conserved structural organization of the TM 7/8 domain and a key role of this domain in GABA-dependent and -independent conformational changes of the transporter. 相似文献

The kinetics of the recombination of the metal-depleted active site of horse liver alcohol dehydrogenase (LADH) with metal ions have been studied over a range of pH and temperature. The formation rates were determined optically, by activity measurements, or by using the pH change during metal incorporation with a pH-indicator as monitor. The binding of Zn2+, Co2+, and Ni2+ ions occurs in a two-step process. The first step is a fast equilibrium reaction, characterized by an equilibrium constant K1. The spectroscopic and catalytic properties of the native or metal-substituted protein are recovered in a slow, monomolecular process with the rate constant k2. The rate constants k2 5.2 X 10(-2) sec-1 (Zn2+), 1.1 X 10(-3) sec-1 (Co2+), and 2 X 10(-4) sec-1 (Ni2+). The rate constants increase with increasing pH. Using temperature dependence, the activation parameters for the reaction with Co2+ and Ni2+ were determined. Activation energies of 51 +/- 2.5 kJ/mol (0.033 M N-Tris-(hydroxymethyl)methyl-2-aminomethane sulfonic acid (TES), pH 6, 9) for Co2+ and 48.5 +/- 4 kJ/mol (0.033 M TES, pH 7, 2) for Ni2+ at 23 degrees C were found. The correspondent activation entropies are - 146 +/- 10 kJ/mol K for Co2+ and - 163 +/- 9 kJ/mol K for Ni2+. Two protons are released during the binding of Zn2+ to H4Zn(n)2 LADH in the pH range 6.8-8.1. The binding of coenzyme, either reduced or oxidized, prevents completely the incorporation of metal ions, suggesting that the metal ions enter the catalytic site via the coenzyme binding domain and not through the hydrophobic substrate channel. 相似文献

The time-resolved kinetics of the Ca(2+)-translocating partial reaction of the sarcoplasmatic reticulum Ca-ATPase was investigated by ATP-concentration jump experiments. ATP was released by an ultraviolet light flash from its inactive precursor and charge movements in the membrane domain of the ion pumps were detected by the fluorescent styryl dye 2BITC. Two oppositely directed cation movements were found, which were assigned to Ca(2+) release and H(+) binding. The faster process with a typical time constant of 30 ms reports the rate-limiting process before Ca(2+) release, probably the conformation transition E(1) --> E(2). The following, slow uptake of positive charge had a pH-dependent time constant, which was 1 s at low pH and approximately 3 s at pH > 8. This process is assigned to an electrically silent conformational relaxation of the state P-E(2) preceding H(+) binding. This interpretation is in agreement with the observation that the fast process was independent of the substrate concentrations (i.e., when [Ca(2+)] > 200 nM, and [ATP] > 20 micro M). The slow process was independent of the Ca(2+) concentration. The activation energy of the resolved processes was between 80 kJ/mol and 90 kJ/mol, which is comparable to the activation energy of the enzymatic activity (92 kJ/mol) and these high values point to conformational changes underlying rate-limiting steps of the pump cycle. 相似文献

The effects of bivalent cations on heparin binding, structure, and thrombin inhibition rates of heparin cofactor II were examined. Zn(2+) - and to a lesser extent Cu(2+) and Ni(2+) - enhanced the interaction between heparin cofactor II and heparin as demonstrated by heparin affinity chromatography and surface plasmon resonance experiments. Metal chelate chromatography and increased intrinsic protein fluorescence in the presence of Zn(2+) indicated that heparin cofactor II has metal ion-binding properties. The results are compatible with the hypothesis that Zn(2+) induces a conformational change in heparin cofactor II that favors its interaction with heparin. 相似文献

Specific recognition of the mRNA 5' cap by eukaryotic initiation factor eIF4E is a rate-limiting step in the translation initiation. Fluorescence spectroscopy and high-sensitivity isothermal titration calorimetry were used to examine the thermodynamics of eIF4E binding to a cap-analogue, 7-methylGpppG. A van't Hoff plot revealed nonlinearity characterized by an unexpected, large positive molar heat capacity change (DeltaC(degree)(p) = +1.92 +/- 0.93 kJ.mol(-1).K(-1)), which was confirmed by direct ITC measurements (DeltaC(degree)(p) = +1.941 +/- 0.059 kJ.mol(-1).K(-1)). This unique result appears to come from an extensive additional hydration upon binding and charge-related interactions within the binding site. As a consequence of the positive DeltaC(degree)(p), the nature of the thermodynamic driving force changes with increasing temperature, from enthalpy-driven and entropy-opposed, through enthalpy- and entropy-driven in the range of biological temperatures, into entropy-driven and enthalpy-opposed. Comparison of the van't Hoff and calorimetric enthalpy values provided proof for the ligand protonation at N(1) upon binding, which is required for tight stabilization of the cap-eIF4E complex. Intramolecular self-stacking of the dinucleotide cap-analogue was analyzed to reveal the influence of this coupled process on the thermodynamic parameters of the eIF4E-mRNA 5' cap interaction. The temperature-dependent change in the conformation of 7-methylGpppG shifts significantly the intrinsic DeltaH(degree)(0) = -72.9 +/- 4.2 kJ.mol(-1) and DeltaS(degree)(0) = -116 +/- 58 J.mol(-1).K(-1) of binding to the less negative resultant values, by DeltaH(degree)(sst) = +9.76 +/- 1.15 kJ.mol(-1) and DeltaS(degree)(sst) = +24.8 +/- 2.1 J.mol(-1).K(-1) (at 293 K), while the corresponding DeltaC(degree)(p)(sst) = -0.0743 +/- 0.0083 kJ.mol(-1).K(-1) is negligible in comparison with the total DeltaC(degree)(p) . 相似文献
