Characterization of the binding of 8-anilinonaphthalene sulfonate to rat class Mu GST M1-1.

ABSTRACT: Molecular docking and ANS-displacement experiments indicated that 8-anilinonaphthalene sulfonate (ANS) binds the hydrophobic site (H-site) in the active site of dimeric class Mu rGST M1-1. The naphthalene moiety provides most of the van der Waals contacts at the ANS-binding interface while the anilino group is able to sample different rotamers. The energetics of ANS binding were studied by isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) over the temperature range of 5-30 degrees C. Binding is both enthalpically and entropically driven and displays a stoichiometry of one ANS molecule per subunit (or H-site). ANS binding is linked to the uptake of 0.5 protons at pH 6.5. Enthalpy of binding depends linearly upon temperature yielding a DeltaC(p) of -80+/-4 cal K(-1) mol(-1) indicating the burial of solvent-exposed nonpolar surface area upon ANS-protein complex formation. While ion-pair interactions between the sulfonate moiety of ANS and protein cationic groups may be significant for other ANS-binding proteins, the binding of ANS to rGST M1-1 is primarily hydrophobic in origin. The binding properties are compared with those of other GSTs and ANS-binding proteins.

Project description:Glutathione S-transferases, including GST-T1 and GST-M1, are known to be involved in the phase II detoxification pathways for xenobiotics as well as in the metabolism of endogenous compounds. Polymorphisms in these genes have been linked to an increased susceptibility to carcinogenesis and associated with risk factors that predispose to certain inflammatory diseases. In addition, GST-T1 and GST-M1 null genotypes have been shown to be responsible for interindividual variations in the metabolism of arsenic, a known human carcinogen. To assess the specific GST genotypes in the Mexican population chronically exposed to arsenic, we have developed a multiplex High Resolution Melting PCR (HRM-PCR) analysis using a LightCycler480 instrument. This method is based on analysis of the PCR product melting curve that discriminates PCR products according to their lengths and base sequences. Three pairs of primers that specifically recognize GST-T1, GST-M1, and β-globin, an internal control, to produce amplicons of different length were designed and combined with LightCycler480 High Resolution Melting Master Mix containing ResoLight, a completely saturating DNA dye. Data collected from melting curve analysis were evaluated using LightCycler480 software to determine specific melting temperatures of individual melting curves representing target genes. Using this newly developed multiplex HRM-PCR analysis, we evaluated GST-T1 and GST-M1 genotypes in 504 DNA samples isolated from the blood of individuals residing in Zimapan, Lagunera, and Chihuahua regions in Mexico. We found that the Zimapan and Lagunera populations have similar GST-T1 and GST-M1 genotype frequencies which differ from those of the Chihuahua population. In addition, 14 individuals have been identified as carriers of the double null genotype, i.e., null genotypes in both GST-T1 and GST-M1 genes. Although this procedure does not distinguish between biallelic (+/+) and monoallelic (+/-) genotypes, it can be used in an automated workflow as a simple, sensitive, and time and money saving procedure for rapid identification of the GST-T1 and GST-M1 positive or null genotypes.
