Ligand-induced protein mobility in complexes of carbonic anhydrase II and benzenesulfonamides with oligoglycine chains.

ABSTRACT: This paper describes a biophysical investigation of residual mobility in complexes of bovine carbonic anhydrase II (BCA) and para-substituted benzenesulfonamide ligands with chains of 1-5 glycine subunits, and explains the previously observed increase in entropy of binding with chain length. The reported results represent the first experimental demonstration that BCA is not the rigid, static globulin that has been typically assumed, but experiences structural fluctuations upon binding ligands. NMR studies with (15)N-labeled ligands demonstrated that the first glycine subunit of the chain binds without stabilization or destabilization by the more distal subunits, and suggested that the other glycine subunits of the chain behave similarly. These data suggest that a model based on ligand mobility in the complex cannot explain the thermodynamic data. Hydrogen/deuterium exchange studies provided a global estimate of protein mobility and revealed that the number of exchanged hydrogens of BCA was higher when the protein was bound to a ligand with five glycine subunits than when bound to a ligand with only one subunit, and suggested a trend of increasing number of exchanged hydrogens with increasing chain length of the BCA-bound ligand, across the series. These data support the idea that the glycine chain destabilizes the structure of BCA in a length-dependent manner, causing an increase in BCA mobility. This study highlights the need to consider ligand-induced mobility of even "static" proteins in studies of protein-ligand binding, including rational ligand design approaches.

Project description:Sulphonamide adducts of three Co(II) carbonic anhydrases were investigated by e.p.r. (electron paramagnetic resonance) at helium temperatures. The highly anisotropic 9 GHz spectra exhibited only three distinct features, with g values between 6.3 and 1.5. Such spectra arise from an electronic state with effective spin S'=(1/2), indicating that the high-spin (S=3/2) ground level is split into two spin doublets differing in energy by an amount large compared with the microwave quantum, but small in relation to thermal energies at ambient temperature. This situation would occur in a tetrahedral system suffering a large rhombic distortion. Calculations based on this model accounted for apparent discrepancies in integrated spectral intensities, and yielded magnetic moments in good agreement with independent measurements, especially in the case of certain small Co(II) complexes resembling the enzyme adducts in their e.p.r. signals. Precise sets of g values, reflecting a particular co-ordination geometry, were found to be representative of each enzyme variant and the type of sulphonamide inhibitor, whether benzocyclic or heterocyclic. A series of substituted benzene sulphonamides bound to the same enzyme gave rise to closely similar spectra despite a wide range of pK(i) values. Thus benzocyclic and heterocyclic sulphonamides were evidently held in the active-site cleft in characteristic orientations irrespective of side chains that might considerably influence the total binding strength. Visible absorption spectra of various sulphonamide adducts at room temperature showed a similar pattern of inhibitor dependence to the e.p.r. spectra, suggesting a correspondence between the co-ordination structures in liquid and frozen solution. E.p.r. spectra of the sulphonamide complexes were remarkable not only for their range of g values, but also for their variations in line-width and spin-lattice relaxation behaviour. Addition of glycerol to the medium produced marked enhancement in resolution, owing to the creation of a more homogeneous frozen matrix. The non-uniform spin relaxation was probably a consequence of the large anisotropy in effective g tensor.
