Furthermore, we present opabactin (OP) as a new plant hormone-based CIP that is effective in live mammalian cells at low nanomolar concentration and in live medaka embryos at submicromolar concentration. Its photocaged derivative, pOP, enables the induction of protein proximity upon light exposure in individual cells, enhancing spatiotemporal control to the level of single-cell resolution. Additionally, we explored the use of both photocaged CIPs to promote protein proximity in live medaka embryos.","PeriodicalId":11,"journal":{"name":"ACS Chemical Biology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-01-27","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143044865","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Since both the BLUF and AC domains are part of the same protein, OaPAC is a model for understanding how the ultrafast modulation of the chromophore binding pocket caused by photoexcitation results in the activation of the output domain on the μs-s time scale. In the present work, we use unnatural amino acid mutagenesis to identify specific sites in the protein that are involved in transducing the signal from the FAD binding site to the ATP binding site. To provide insight into site-specific structural dynamics, we replaced W90 which is close to the chromophore pocket, F103 which interacts with W90 across the dimer interface, and F180 in the central core of the AC domain, with the infrared probe azido-Phe (AzPhe). Using ultrafast IR, we show that AzPhe at position 90 responds on multiple time scales following photoexcitation. In contrast, the light minus dark IR spectrum of AzPhe103 shows only a minor perturbation in environment between the dark and light states, while replacement of F180 with AzPhe resulted in a protein with no catalytic activity. We also replaced Y125, which hydrogen bonds with N256 across the dimer interface, with fluoro-Tyr residues. All the fluoro-Tyr substituted proteins retained the light-induced red shift in the flavin absorption spectrum; however, only the 3-FY125 OaPAC retained photoinduced catalytic activity. The loss of activity in 3,5-F2Y125 and 2,3,5-F3Y125 OaPAC, which potentially increase the acidity of the Y125 phenol by more than 1000-fold, suggests that deprotonation of Y125 disrupts the signal transduction pathway from the BLUF to the AC domain.","PeriodicalId":11,"journal":{"name":"ACS Chemical Biology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-01-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143021284","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Recently, new aspects of Siglec binding to sulfated cell surface carbohydrates have been discovered, but the class of glycan presenting these sulfated Siglec ligands has not been fully elucidated. In this study, the contribution of different classes of glycans to cis and trans Siglec ligands was investigated within cells expressing the carbohydrate sulfotransferase 1 (CHST1) or CHST2. For some Siglecs, the glycan class mediating binding was clear, such as O-glycans for Siglec-7 and N-glycans for Siglec-2 and Siglec-9. Both N-glycans and mucin-type O-glycans contributed to ligands for Siglec-3, -5, -8, and -15. However, significant levels of Siglec-3 and -8 ligands remained in CHST1-expressing cells lacking complex N-glycans and mucin-type O-glycans. A combination of genetic, pharmacological, and enzymatic treatment strategies ruled out heparan sulfates and glycoRNA as contributors, although Siglec-8 did exhibit some binding to glycolipids. Genetic disruption of O-mannose glycans within CHST1-expressing cells had a small but significant impact on Siglec-3 and -8 binding, demonstrating that this class of glycans can present sulfated Siglec ligands. We also investigated the ability of sulfated cis ligands to mask Siglec-3 and Siglec-7. For Siglec-7, cis ligands were again found to be mucin-type O-glycans. While N-glycans were the major sulfated trans ligands for Siglec-3, disruption of complex mucin-type O-glycans had the largest impact on Siglec-3 masking. Overall, this study enhances our knowledge of the types of sulfated glycans that can serve as Siglec ligands.","PeriodicalId":11,"journal":{"name":"ACS Chemical Biology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-01-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142995974","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, most experimental small molecule screening methods require ligands containing radiolabels or fluorescent labels and often involve isolating proteins from their cellular environment. Additionally, most conventional screening methods are suited for identifying compounds with moderate to higher affinities (KD < 1 μM) and are less effective at detecting lower affinity compounds, such as weakly binding molecular fragments. To address these limitations, we demonstrated a proof-of-concept application of high-resolution magic angle spinning nuclear magnetic resonance (HRMAS NMR) spectroscopy with small molecules that bind the human A2A adenosine receptor (A2AAR), a class A G protein-coupled receptor. Our approach leverages a streamlined workflow to prepare NMR samples with only milligrams of unpurified cell membranes containing ∼1 μM of A2AAR. Utilizing saturation transfer difference NMR, we identified bound small molecules from spectra recorded within minutes and further derived information on ligand binding poses without the need for detailed structure determination. After establishing optimal criteria for which the HRMAS approach is most sensitive, we leveraged our HRMAS approach to identify and characterize molecular fragments not previously known to be ligands of A2AAR. In molecular docking and simulations, we observed novel binding poses for these fragments, which revealed the potential to grow them into more complex ligands and confirmed HRMAS NMR as a valuable tool for lead compound identification in the context of fragment-based drug discovery.","PeriodicalId":11,"journal":{"name":"ACS Chemical Biology","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-01-21","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142995960","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A general narrative reiterated in much of the literature suggests that this enzyme promotes sequential reduction of both the azo-containing substrate and its corresponding hydrazo product to release the aryl amine components while consuming two equivalents of NAD(P)H. Indeed, such aryl amines can be formed by incubation of certain azo compounds with azoreductases, but the nature of the substrates capable of this apparent azo bond lysis remained unknown. We have now prepared a set of azobenzene derivatives and characterized their turnover and products after treatment with azoreductase from Escherichia coli to discover the structural basis regulating aryl amine formation. Without resonance donation by aryl substituents, reduction ceases at the hydrazo product. This indicates that azoreductases do not act on the hydrazo bond. Instead, aryl amine formation depends on a spontaneous hydrazo bond lysis that is promoted by resonance stabilization and subsequent reduction of the quinone-like intermediate by azoreductase. Experimental and computational approaches confirm the substituent dependence of this process. With knowledge of this requirement, full release of aryl amines from azo-conjugates can now be designed and applied with confidence.","PeriodicalId":11,"journal":{"name":"ACS Chemical Biology","volume":" ","pages":"229-237"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-01-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142870570","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although the highly stereoselective reduction of ACP-bound β-ketothioester intermediates by KRs is crucial for the overall functioning of PKSs, the substrate-dependent stereoselectivity of KRs is a factor that is not yet fully understood, especially for KR domains in late PKS modules that act on biosynthetic precursors with complex polyketidic moieties. We present studies on the three KR domains FosKR7, PlmKR6, and EryKR6 from the biosynthetic pathways of fostriecin, phoslactomycin, and erythromycin by in vitro assays using close surrogates of the octaketidic FosKR7 biosynthetic precursor, complex derivatives and a diketide in the form of their biomimetic N-acetylcysteamine thioesters. Supported by molecular modeling, specific interactions of the studied KR domains with the extended polyketide moieties of their natural precursors were identified and correlated to the differences in stereoselectivity observed in the in vitro assays. These results reinforce the importance of the substrate-dependent stereoselectivity of KR domains in PKSs and suggest more detailed experimental and structural studies with isolated KRs and full PKS modules that could ultimately lead to improved results in PKS engineering.","PeriodicalId":11,"journal":{"name":"ACS Chemical Biology","volume":" ","pages":"186-196"},"PeriodicalIF":3.5,"publicationDate":"2025-01-17","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142941420","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
