Using hydrogen/deuterium exchange mass spectrometry to define the specific interactions of the phospholipase A2 superfamily with lipid substrates, inhibitors, and membranes.

ABSTRACT: The phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)) superfamily consists of 16 groups and many subgroups and constitutes a diverse set of enzymes that have a common catalytic activity due to convergent evolution. However, different PLA(2) types have unique three-dimensional structures and catalytic residues as well as specific tissue localization and distinct biological functions. Understanding how the different PLA(2) enzymes associate with phospholipid membranes, specific phospholipid substrate molecules, and inhibitors on a molecular basis has advanced in recent years due to the introduction of hydrogen/deuterium exchange mass spectrometry. Its theory, practical considerations, and application to understanding PLA(2)/membrane interactions are addressed.

Localizing the membrane binding region of Group VIA Ca2+-independent phospholipase A2 using peptide amide hydrogen/deuterium exchange mass spectrometry.

Project description:The Group VIA-2 Ca(2+)-independent phospholipase A(2) (GVIA-2 iPLA(2)) is composed of seven consecutive N-terminal ankyrin repeats, a linker region, and a C-terminal phospholipase catalytic domain. No structural information exists for this enzyme, and no information is known about the membrane binding surface. We carried out deuterium exchange experiments with the GVIA-2 iPLA(2) in the presence of both phospholipid substrate and the covalent inhibitor methyl arachidonoyl fluorophosphonate and located regions in the protein that change upon lipid binding. No changes were seen in the presence of only methyl arachidonoyl fluorophosphonate. The region with the greatest change upon lipid binding was region 708-730, which showed a >70% decrease in deuteration levels at numerous time points. No decreases in exchange due to phospholipid binding were seen in the ankyrin repeat domain of the protein. To locate regions with changes in exchange on the enzyme, we constructed a computational homology model based on homologous structures. This model was validated by comparing the deuterium exchange results with the predicted structure. Our model combined with the deuterium exchange results in the presence of lipid substrate have allowed us to propose the first structural model of GVIA-2 iPLA(2) as well as the interfacial lipid binding region.

Calcium binding rigidifies the C2 domain and the intradomain interaction of GIVA phospholipase A2 as revealed by hydrogen/deuterium exchange mass spectrometry.

Project description:The GIVA phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)) contains two domains: a calcium-binding domain (C2) and a catalytic domain. These domains are linked via a flexible tether. GIVA PLA(2) activity is Ca(2+)-dependent in that calcium binding promotes protein docking to the phospholipid membrane. In addition, the catalytic domain has a lid that covers the active site, presumably regulating GIVA PLA(2) activity. We now present studies that explore the dynamics and conformational changes of this enzyme in solution utilizing peptide amide hydrogen/deuterium (H/D) exchange coupled with liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (DXMS) to probe the solvent accessibility and backbone flexibility of the C2 domain, the catalytic domain, and the intact GIVA PLA(2). We also analyzed the changes in H/D exchange of the intact GIVA PLA(2) upon Ca(2+) binding. The DXMS results showed a fast H/D-exchanging lid and a slow exchanging central core. The C2 domain showed two distinct regions: a fast exchanging region facing away from the catalytic domain and a slow exchanging region present in the "cleft" region between the C2 and catalytic domains. The slow exchanging region of the C2 domain is in tight proximity to the catalytic domain. The effects of Ca(2+) binding on GIVA PLA(2) are localized in the C2 domain and suggest that binding of two distinct Ca(2+) ions causes tightening up of the regions that surround the anion hole at the tip of the C2 domain. This conformational change may be the initial step in GIVA PLA(2) activation.

Interaction of group IA phospholipase A2 with metal ions and phospholipid vesicles probed with deuterium exchange mass spectrometry.

Project description:Deuterium exchange mass spectrometric evaluation of the cobra venom (Naja naja naja) group IA phospholipase A 2 (GIA PLA 2) was carried out in the presence of metal ions Ca (2+) and Ba (2+) and phospholipid vesicles. Novel conditions for digesting highly disulfide bonded proteins and a methodology for studying protein-lipid interactions using deuterium exchange have been developed. The enzyme exhibits unexpectedly slow rates of exchange in the two large alpha-helices of residues 43-53 and 89-101, which suggests that these alpha-helices are highly rigidified by the four disulfide bonds in this region. The binding of Ca (2+) or Ba (2+) ions decreased the deuterium exchange rates for five regions of the protein (residues 24-27, 29-40, 43-53, 103-110, and 111-114). The magnitude of the changes was the same for both ions with the exception of regions of residues 24-27 and 103-110 which showed greater changes for Ca (2+). The crystal structure of the N. naja naja GIA PLA 2 contains a single Ca (2+) bound in the catalytic site, but the crystal structures of related PLA 2s contain a second Ca (2+) binding site. The deuterium exchange studies reported here clearly show that in solution the GIA PLA 2 does in fact bind two Ca (2+) ions. With dimyristoylphosphatidylcholine (DMPC) phospholipid vesicles with 100 microM Ca (2+) present at 0 degrees C, significant areas on the i-face of the enzyme showed decreases in the rate of exchange. These areas included regions of residues 3-8, 18-21, and 56-64 which include Tyr-3, Trp-61, Tyr-63, and Phe-64 proposed to penetrate the membrane surface. These regions also contained Phe-5 and Trp-19, proposed to bind the fatty acyl tails of substrate.

Location of inhibitors bound to group IVA phospholipase A2 determined by molecular dynamics and deuterium exchange mass spectrometry.

Project description:An analysis of group IVA (GIVA) phospholipase A(2) (PLA(2)) inhibitor binding was conducted using a combination of deuterium exchange mass spectrometry (DXMS) and molecular dynamics (MD). Models of the GIVA PLA(2) inhibitors pyrrophenone and the 2-oxoamide AX007 docked into the protein were designed on the basis of deuterium exchange results, and extensive molecular dynamics simulations were run to determine protein-inhibitor contacts. The models show that both inhibitors interact with key residues that also exhibit changes in deuterium exchange upon inhibitor binding. Pyrrophenone is bound to the protein through numerous hydrophobic residues located distal from the active site, while the oxoamide is bound mainly through contacts near the active site. We also show differences in protein dynamics around the active site between the two inhibitor-bound complexes. This combination of computational and experimental methods is useful in defining more accurate inhibitor binding sites and can be used in the generation of better inhibitors against GIVA PLA(2).

On-tissue Direct Monitoring of Global Hydrogen/Deuterium Exchange by MALDI Mass Spectrometry: Tissue Deuterium Exchange Mass Spectrometry (TDXMS).

Project description:Hydrogen/deuterium exchange mass spectrometric (H/DXMS) methods for protein structural analysis are conventionally performed in solution. We present Tissue Deuterium Exchange Mass Spectrometry (TDXMS), a method to directly monitor deuterium uptake on tissue, as a means to better approximate the deuterium exchange behavior of proteins in their native microenvironment. Using this method, a difference in deuterium uptake behavior was observed when the same proteins were monitored in solution and on tissue. The higher maximum deuterium uptake at equilibrium for all proteins analyzed in solution suggests a more open conformation in the absence of interacting partners normally observed on tissue. We also demonstrate a difference in the deuterium uptake behavior of a few proteins across different morphological regions of the same tissue section. Modifications of the total number of hydrogens exchanged, as well as the kinetics of exchange, were both observed. These results provide information on the implication of protein interactions with partners as well as on the conformational changes related to these interactions, and illustrate the importance of examining protein deuterium exchange behavior in the presence of its specific microenvironment directly at the level of tissues.

Fluoroketone inhibition of Ca(2+)-independent phospholipase A2 through binding pocket association defined by hydrogen/deuterium exchange and molecular dynamics.

Project description:The mechanism of inhibition of group VIA Ca(2+)-independent phospholipase A(2) (iPLA(2)) by fluoroketone (FK) ligands is examined by a combination of deuterium exchange mass spectrometry (DXMS) and molecular dynamics (MD). Models for iPLA(2) were built by homology with the known structure of patatin and equilibrated by extensive MD simulations. Empty pockets were identified during the simulations and studied for their ability to accommodate FK inhibitors. Ligand docking techniques showed that the potent inhibitor 1,1,1,3-tetrafluoro-7-phenylheptan-2-one (PHFK) forms favorable interactions inside an active-site pocket, where it blocks the entrance of phospholipid substrates. The polar fluoroketone headgroup is stabilized by hydrogen bonds with residues Gly486, Gly487, and Ser519. The nonpolar aliphatic chain and aromatic group are stabilized by hydrophobic contacts with Met544, Val548, Phe549, Leu560, and Ala640. The binding mode is supported by DXMS experiments showing an important decrease of deuteration in the contact regions in the presence of the inhibitor. The discovery of the precise binding mode of FK ligands to the iPLA(2) should greatly improve our ability to design new inhibitors with higher potency and selectivity.

Nepenthesin from monkey cups for hydrogen/deuterium exchange mass spectrometry.

Project description:Studies of protein dynamics, structure and interactions using hydrogen/deuterium exchange mass spectrometry (HDX-MS) have sharply increased over the past 5-10 years. The predominant technology requires fast digestion at pH 2-3 to retain deuterium label. Pepsin is used almost exclusively, but it provides relatively low efficiency under the constraints of the experiment, and a selectivity profile that renders poor coverage of intrinsically disordered regions. In this study we present nepenthesin-containing secretions of the pitcher plant Nepenthes, commonly called monkey cups, for use in HDX-MS. We show that nepenthesin is at least 1400-fold more efficient than pepsin under HDX-competent conditions, with a selectivity profile that mimics pepsin in part, but also includes efficient cleavage C-terminal to "forbidden" residues K, R, H, and P. High efficiency permits a solution-based analysis with no detectable autolysis, avoiding the complication of immobilized enzyme reactors. Relaxed selectivity promotes high coverage of disordered regions and the ability to "tune" the mass map for regions of interest. Nepenthesin-enriched secretions were applied to an analysis of protein complexes in the nonhomologous end-joining DNA repair pathway. The analysis of XRCC4 binding to the BRCT domains of Ligase IV points to secondary interactions between the disordered C-terminal tail of XRCC4 and remote regions of the BRCT domains, which could only be identified with a nepenthesin-based workflow. HDX data suggest that stalk-binding to XRCC4 primes a BRCT conformation in these remote regions to support tail interaction, an event which may be phosphoregulated. We conclude that nepenthesin is an effective alternative to pepsin for all HDX-MS applications, and especially for the analysis of structural transitions among intrinsically disordered proteins and their binding partners.

Empirical Bayes functional models for hydrogen deuterium exchange mass spectrometry.

Project description:Hydrogen deuterium exchange mass spectrometry (HDX-MS) is a technique to explore differential protein structure by examining the rate of deuterium incorporation for specific peptides. This rate will be altered upon structural perturbation and detecting significant changes to this rate requires a statistical test. To determine rates of incorporation, HDX-MS measurements are frequently made over a time course. However, current statistical testing procedures ignore the correlations in the temporal dimension of the data. Using tools from functional data analysis, we develop a testing procedure that explicitly incorporates a model of hydrogen deuterium exchange. To further improve statistical power, we develop an empirical Bayes version of our method, allowing us to borrow information across peptides and stabilise variance estimates for low sample sizes. Our approach has increased power, reduces false positives and improves interpretation over linear model-based approaches. Due to the improved flexibility of our method, we can apply it to a multi-antibody epitope-mapping experiment where current approaches are inapplicable due insufficient flexibility. Hence, our approach allows HDX-MS to be applied in more experimental scenarios and reduces the burden on experimentalists to produce excessive replicates. Our approach is implemented in the R-package "hdxstats": https://github.com/ococrook/hdxstats .

Imidazolium Compounds as Internal Exchange Reporters for Hydrogen/Deuterium Exchange by Mass Spectrometry.

Project description:Hydrogen-deuterium exchange mass spectrometry (HDX-MS) is a powerful tool for protein structure analysis that is well suited for biotherapeutic development and characterization. Because HDX is strongly dependent on solution conditions, even small variations in temperature or pH can have a pronounced effect on the observed kinetics that can manifest in significant run-to-run variability and compromise reproducibility. Recent attention has been given to the development of internal exchange reporters (IERs), which directly monitor changes to exchange reaction conditions. However, the currently available small peptide IERs are only capable of sampling a very narrow temporal window and are understood to exhibit complex solution dependent exchange behavior. Here we demonstrate the use of imidazolium carbon acids as superior IERs for HDX-MS. These compounds exhibit predictable exchange behavior under a wide variety of reaction conditions, are highly stable, and can be readily modified to exchange over a broad temporal window. The use of these compounds as IERs for solution based HDX-MS could considerably extend the utility of the technique by allowing for more robust empirical exchange correction, thereby improving reproducibility.

Platform dependencies in bottom-up hydrogen/deuterium exchange mass spectrometry.

Project description:Hydrogen-deuterium exchange mass spectrometry is an important method for protein structure-function analysis. The bottom-up approach uses protein digestion to localize deuteration to higher resolution, and the essential measurement involves centroid mass determinations on a very large set of peptides. In the course of evaluating systems for various projects, we established two (HDX-MS) platforms that consisted of a FT-MS and a high-resolution QTOF mass spectrometer, each with matched front-end fluidic systems. Digests of proteins spanning a 20-110 kDa range were deuterated to equilibrium, and figures-of-merit for a typical bottom-up (HDX-MS) experiment were compared for each platform. The Orbitrap Velos identified 64% more peptides than the 5600 QTOF, with a 42% overlap between the two systems, independent of protein size. Precision in deuterium measurements using the Orbitrap marginally exceeded that of the QTOF, depending on the Orbitrap resolution setting. However, the unique nature of FT-MS data generates situations where deuteration measurements can be inaccurate, because of destructive interference arising from mismatches in elemental mass defects. This is shown through the analysis of the peptides common to both platforms, where deuteration values can be as low as 35% of the expected values, depending on FT-MS resolution, peptide length and charge state. These findings are supported by simulations of Orbitrap transients, and highlight that caution should be exercised in deriving centroid mass values from FT transients that do not support baseline separation of the full isotopic composition.
