We here study the A4V mutant of SOD1, which forms toxic aggregates in motor neurons of patients with familial amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). A comparison of the location of aggregation prone regions (APRs) and Hsp70 binding sites in the denatured state of SOD1 reveals that ALS-associated mutations promote exposure of the APRs more than the strongest Hsc/Hsp70 binding site that we could detect. Mutations designed to increase the exposure of this Hsp70 interaction site in the denatured state promote aggregation but also display an increased interaction with Hsp70 chaperones. Depending on the cell type, in vitro this resulted in cellular inclusion body formation or increased clearance, accompanied with a suppression of cytotoxicity. The latter was also observed in a zebrafish model in vivo. Our results suggest that the uncontrolled accumulation of toxic SOD1A4V aggregates results from insufficient detection by the cellular surveillance network.</p>","PeriodicalId":54543,"journal":{"name":"Protein Engineering Design & Selection","volume":"32 10","pages":"443-457"},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2019-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1093/protein/gzaa008","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"37927125","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Here, we use measurements of nanobody aggregation kinetics to validate structural features in the nanobody fold that are suppressing heat-induced nanobody aggregation. Furthermore, the kinetic measurements yielded a detailed insight into the concept of the ΔTm shift, a metric for protein aggregation propensities obtained from differential scanning fluorimetry measurements. By relating the equilibrium measurements of the ΔTm shift to the kinetic measurements of heat-induced nanobody aggregation, a distinct relationship could be identified that allows a prediction of nanobody aggregation rates from a simple equilibrium measurement of ΔTm.","PeriodicalId":54543,"journal":{"name":"Protein Engineering Design & Selection","volume":"61 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.4,"publicationDate":"2019-12-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"86060422","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Therefore, characterization of epitopes in combination with describing the involved conformational changes of the paratope upon binding is crucial in understanding and predicting antibody-antigen binding. Using molecular dynamics simulations complemented with strong experimental structural information, we investigated the underlying binding mechanism and the resulting local and global surface plasticity in the binding interfaces of distinct antibody-antigen complexes.

Using molecular dynamics simulations from the Dynameomics project, we conducted a detailed study of protein unfolding/folding pathways for 5 protein domains from the immunoglobulin (Ig)-like β-sandwich metafold (the highest ranked metafold in our database). The domains have sequence similarities ranging from 4 to 15% and are all from different SCOP superfamilies, yet they share the same overall Ig-like topology. Despite having very different amino acid sequences, the dominant unfolding pathway is very similar for the 5 proteins, and the secondary structures that are peripheral to the aligned, shared core domain add variability to the unfolding pathway. Aligned residues in the core domain display consensus structure in the transition state primarily through conservation of hydrophobic positions.

Thus, elucidating the atomic-level determinants of thermostability is a major interest for rational protein design. To that end, we compared the structure and dynamics of a set of previously designed, thermostable proteins based on the activation domain of human procarboxypeptidase A2 (AYEwt). The mutations in these designed proteins were intended to increase hydrophobic core packing and inter-secondary-structure interactions. To evaluate whether these design strategies were successfully deployed, we performed all-atom, explicit-solvent molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of AYEwt and three designed variants at both 25 and 100°C. Our MD simulations agreed with the relative experimental stabilities of the designs based on their secondary structure content, Cα root-mean-square deviation/fluctuation, and buried-residue solvent accessible surface area. Using a contact analysis, we found that the designs stabilize inter-secondary structure interactions and buried hydrophobic surface area, as intended.

These modules are known to promote adsorption to the cellulose surface and influence enzymatic activity. Here, we have investigated the functional diversity of CBMs found within the GH6 family. This was done by constructing five chimeric enzymes based on the model enzyme, TrCel6A, from the soft-rot fungus Trichoderma reesei. The natural CBM of this enzyme was exchanged with CBMs from other GH6 enzymes originating from different cellulose degrading fungi. The chimeric enzymes were expressed in the same host and investigated in adsorption and quasi-steady-state kinetic experiments. Our results quantified functional differences of these phylogenetically distant binding modules. Thus, the partitioning coefficient for substrate binding varied 4-fold, while the maximal turnover (kcat) showed a 2-fold difference. The wild-type enzyme showed the highest cellulose affinity on all tested substrates and the highest catalytic turnover. The CBM from Serendipita indica strongly promoted the enzyme's ability to form productive complexes with sites on the substrate surface but showed lower turnover of the complex.

Noteworthy, W120F, one of our high transglycosylation yield (≈ 50%) mutants, is only two times less efficient than the wild type. Interestingly, while in the wild type the sidechain of the acid-base is only found able to sample a pair of equivalent conformations during 0.5-μs-long molecular dynamics simulations, its flexibility is much higher in the case of the high transglycosylation yield mutants.
