Chemoenzymatic exchange of phosphopantetheine on protein and peptide.

ABSTRACT: Evaluation of new acyl carrier protein hydrolase (AcpH, EC 3.1.4.14) homologs from proteobacteria and cyanobacteria reveals significant variation in substrate selectivity and kinetic parameters for phosphopantetheine hydrolysis from carrier proteins. Evaluation with carrier proteins from both primary and secondary metabolic pathways reveals an overall preference for acyl carrier protein (ACP) substrates from type II fatty acid synthases, as well as variable activity for polyketide synthase ACPs and peptidyl carrier proteins (PCP) from non-ribosomal peptide synthases. We also demonstrate the kinetic parameters of these homologs for AcpP and the 11-mer peptide substrate YbbR. These findings enable the fully reversible labeling of all three classes of natural product synthase carrier proteins as well as full and minimal fusion protein constructs.

Steric effects in peptide and protein exchange with activated disulfides.

Project description:Disulfide exchange is an important bioconjugation tool, enabling chemical modification of peptides and proteins containing free cysteines. We previously reported the synthesis of a macromer bearing an activated disulfide and its incorporation into hydrogels. Despite their ability to diffuse freely into hydrogels, larger proteins were unable to undergo in-gel disulfide exchange. In order to understand this phenomenon, we synthesized four different activated disulfide-bearing model compounds (Mn = 300 Da to 10 kDa) and quantified their rate of disulfide exchange with a small peptide (glutathione), a moderate-sized protein (β-lactoglobulin), and a large protein (bovine serum albumin) in four different pH solutions (6.0, 7.0, 7.4, and 8.0) to mimic biological systems. Rate constants of exchange depend significantly on the size and accessibility of the thiolate. pH also significantly affects the rate of reaction, with the faster reactions occurring at higher pH. Surprisingly, little difference in exchange rates is seen between macromolecular disulfides of varying size (Mn = 2 kDa - 10 kDa), although all undergo exchange more slowly than their small molecule analogue (MW = 300 g/mol). The maximum exchange efficiencies (% disulfides exchanged after 24 h) are not siginificantly affected by thiol size or pH, but somewhat affected by disulfide size. Therefore, while all three factors investigated (pH, disulfide size, and thiolate size) can influence the exchange kinetics and extent of reaction, the size of the thiolate and its accessibility plays the most significant role.

Peptide conformer acidity analysis of protein flexibility monitored by hydrogen exchange.

Project description:The amide hydrogens that are exposed to solvent in the high-resolution X-ray structures of ubiquitin, FK506-binding protein, chymotrypsin inhibitor 2, and rubredoxin span a billion-fold range in hydroxide-catalyzed exchange rates which are predictable by continuum dielectric methods. To facilitate analysis of transiently accessible amides, the hydroxide-catalyzed rate constants for every backbone amide of ubiquitin were determined under near physiological conditions. With the previously reported NMR-restrained molecular dynamics ensembles of ubiquitin (PDB codes 2NR2 and 2K39 ) used as representations of the Boltzmann-weighted conformational distribution, nearly all of the exchange rates for the highly exposed amides were more accurately predicted than by use of the high-resolution X-ray structure. More strikingly, predictions for the amide hydrogens of the NMR relaxation-restrained ensemble that become exposed to solvent in more than one but less than half of the 144 protein conformations in this ensemble were almost as accurate. In marked contrast, the exchange rates for many of the analogous amides in the residual dipolar coupling-restrained ubiquitin ensemble are substantially overestimated, as was particularly evident for the Ile 44 to Lys 48 segment which constitutes the primary interaction site for the proteasome targeting enzymes involved in polyubiquitylation. For both ensembles, "excited state" conformers in this active site region having markedly elevated peptide acidities are represented at a population level that is 10(2) to 10(3) above what can exist in the Boltzmann distribution of protein conformations. These results indicate how a chemically consistent interpretation of amide hydrogen exchange can provide insight into both the population and the detailed structure of transient protein conformations.

One-Step Sortase-Mediated Chemoenzymatic Semisynthesis of Deubiquitinase-Resistant Ub-Peptide Conjugates.

Project description:Post-translational modifications (PTMs) of proteins increase the functional diversity of the proteome and play crucial regulatory roles in cellular processes. Ubiquitination is a highly regulated and reversible PTM accomplished by a complex multistep process with the sequential action of several specific ubiquitinating (E1-E3) and deubiquitinating enzymes. The different types of ubiquitination (mono-, poly-mono-, and poly-) and the presence of several target sites in a single substrate add to its complexity, which makes the in vitro reconstitution of this ubiquitin (Ub) machinery a quite cumbersome process. Defects in components of the ubiquitination process also contribute to disease pathogenesis, especially cancer and neurodegeneration. This makes them of interest as potential therapeutic targets. Therefore, the development of efficient and reliable methods that will generate a highly homogeneous ubiquitinated peptide and protein conjugate is a topical subject area of research. In this report, we describe the development of a simple and efficient in vitro sortase-mediated chemoenzymatic strategy for semisynthesis of defined and homogeneous ubiquitin conjugates with more than 90% yield. This was achieved by engineering a sortase recognition motif in the dynamic C-terminus of ubiquitin and its conjugation to an isopeptide-linked di-Gly appended peptide LMFK(ε-GG)TEG corresponding to the ubiquitination site residues 383LMFKTEG389 of p53. The defined and homogeneous ubiquitin conjugates were also weighed for their recognition propensity by deubiquitinating enzymes. This facile semisynthesis of ubiquitin conjugates establishes a simple one-step sortase-mediated chemoenzymatic route for the synthesis of homogeneous and defined isopeptide-linked polypeptides and will help in understanding the complexity of the ubiquitination machinery as well as designing isopeptide drugs and therapeutics.

High Throughput pMHC-I Tetramer Library Production Using Chaperone Mediated Peptide Exchange

Project description:Peptide exchange technologies are essential for the generation of pMHC-multimer libraries for probing diverse, polyclonal TCR repertoires in various settings. Here we report, using the molecular chaperone TAPBPR, a robust method for the capture of stable, empty MHC-I molecules, which can be readily tetramerized and loaded with peptides of choice in a high-throughput manner. Alternatively, catalytic amounts of TAPBPR can be used to exchange ‘goldilocks’ peptides with high-affinity peptides of interest in an overnight reaction. Using the same system, we describe high-throughput assays to validate binding of multiple candidate peptides on the empty MHCI groove. Combined with tetramer-barcoding via a multi-modal cellular indexing technology, ECCITE-seq, our approach allows a combined analysis of TCR repertoires and other T-cell transcription profiles together with their cognate pMHC-I specificities in a single experiment.

Structures of phosphopantetheine adenylyltransferase from Burkholderia pseudomallei.

Project description:Phosphopantetheine adenylyltransferase (PPAT) catalyzes the fourth of five steps in the coenzyme A biosynthetic pathway, reversibly transferring an adenylyl group from ATP onto 4'-phosphopantetheine to yield dephospho-coenzyme A and pyrophosphate. Burkholderia pseudomallei is a soil- and water-borne pathogenic bacterium and the etiologic agent of melioidosis, a potentially fatal systemic disease present in southeast Asia. Two crystal structures are presented of the PPAT from B. pseudomallei with the expectation that, because of the importance of the enzyme in coenzyme A biosynthesis, they will aid in the search for defenses against this pathogen. A crystal grown in ammonium sulfate yielded a 2.1 Å resolution structure that contained dephospho-coenzyme A with partial occupancy. The overall structure and ligand-binding interactions are quite similar to other bacterial PPAT crystal structures. A crystal grown at low pH in the presence of coenzyme A yielded a 1.6 Å resolution structure in the same crystal form. However, the experimental electron density was not reflective of fully ordered coenzyme A, but rather was only reflective of an ordered 4'-diphosphopantetheine moiety.

4'-Phosphopantetheine and long acyl chain-dependent interactions are integral to human mitochondrial acyl carrier protein function.

Project description:The mitochondrial acyl carrier protein (human ACPM, yeast Acp1) is an essential mitochondrial protein. Through binding of nascent acyl chains on the serine (S112)-bound 4'-phosphopantetheine (4'-PP) cofactor, ACPM is involved in mitochondrial fatty acid synthesis and lipoic acid biogenesis. Recently, yeast Acp1 was found to interact with several mitochondrial complexes, including the iron-sulfur (Fe-S) cluster biosynthesis and respiratory complexes, via the binding to LYRM proteins, a family of proteins involved in assembly/stability of complexes. Importantly, the interaction of LYRM proteins with Acp1 was shown to be essential in maintaining integrity of mitochondrial complexes. In human, recent structures show that ACPM binding to LYRM proteins involves acyl chains attached to the 4'-PP cofactor. Here, we performed an detailed characterization of the mitochondrial interactome of human ACPM by mass spectrometry (MS) and demonstrate the crucial role of the 4'-PP cofactor in most of ACPM interactions. Specifically, we show that ACPM interacts with endogenous Fe-S cluster complex components through binding of the LYRM protein ISD11/LYRM4. Using knockdown experiments, we further determine that ACPM is essential for the stability of mitochondrial respiratory complexes I, II and III, as well as the Fe-S cluster biosynthesis complex. Finally, using native MS and a top-down MS approach, we show that C14, C16 and C18 3-keto-acyl chains on ACPM are implicated in binding to ISD11 through analysis of the recombinant ACPM-ISD11 complex. Taken together, our data provide novel understanding of the role of 4'-PP- and long acyl chains-dependent interactions in human ACPM function.

Chemoenzymatic synthesis of thiazolyl peptide natural products featuring an enzyme-catalyzed formal [4 + 2] cycloaddition.

Project description:Thiocillins from Bacillus cereus ATCC 14579 are members of the well-known thiazolyl peptide class of natural product antibiotics, the biosynthesis of which has recently been shown to proceed via post-translational modification of ribosomally encoded precursor peptides. It has long been hypothesized that the final step of thiazolyl peptide biosynthesis involves a formal [4 + 2] cycloaddition between two dehydroalanines, a unique transformation that had eluded enzymatic characterization. Here we demonstrate that TclM, a single enzyme from the thiocillin biosynthetic pathway, catalyzes this transformation. To facilitate characterization of this new class of enzyme, we have developed a combined chemical and biological route to the complex peptide substrate, relying on chemical synthesis of a modified C-terminal fragment and coupling to a 38-residue leader peptide by means of native chemical ligation (NCL). This strategy, combined with active enzyme, provides a new chemoenzymatic route to this promising class of antibiotics.

Insights into the mechanism of peptide cyclodehydrations achieved through the chemoenzymatic generation of amide derivatives.

Project description:Current strategies for generating peptides and proteins bearing amide carbonyl derivatives rely on solid-phase peptide synthesis for amide functionalization. Although such strategies have been successfully implemented, technical limitations restrict both the length and sequence of the synthetic fragments. Herein we report the repurposing of a thiazole/oxazole-modified microcin (TOMM) cyclodehydratase to site-specifically install amide backbone labels onto diverse peptide substrates, a method we refer to as azoline-mediated peptide backbone labeling (AMPL). This convenient chemoenzymatic strategy can generate both thioamides and amides with isotopically labeled oxygen atoms. Moreover, we demonstrate the first leader peptide-independent activity of a TOMM synthetase, circumventing the requirement that sequences of interest be fused to a leader peptide for modification. Through bioinformatics-guided site-directed mutagenesis, we also convert a strictly dehydrogenase-dependent TOMM azole synthetase into an azoline synthetase. This vastly expands the spectrum of substrates modifiable by AMPL by allowing any in vitro reconstituted TOMM synthetase to be employed. To demonstrate the utility of AMPL for mechanistic enzymology studies, an (18)O-labeled substrate was generated to provide direct evidence that cyclodehydrations in TOMMs occur through the phosphorylation of the carbonyl oxygen preceding the cyclized residue. Furthermore, we demonstrate that AMPL is a useful tool for establishing the location of azolines both on in vitro modified peptides and azoline-containing natural products.

Sortase A-mediated chemoenzymatic synthesis of complex glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored protein.

Project description:Green fluorescent protein and a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor containing the common core structure and a lipid chain were synthesized and then coupled together in the promotion of bacterial sortase A (SrtA), which was the first example for the synthesis of a full-size GPI-anchored protein by SrtA, demonstrating that this can be a generally useful method for GPI-anchored protein synthesis.

Practical 4'-phosphopantetheine active site discovery from proteomic samples.

Project description:Polyketide and nonribosomal peptides constitute important classes of small molecule natural products. Due to the proven biological activities of these compounds, novel methods for discovery and study of the polyketide synthase (PKS) and nonribosomal peptide synthetase (NRPS) enzymes responsible for their production remains an area of intense interest, and proteomic approaches represent a relatively unexplored avenue. While these enzymes may be distinguished from the proteomic milieu by their use of the 4'-phosphopantetheine (PPant) post-translational modification, proteomic detection of PPant peptides is hindered by their low abundance and labile nature which leaves them unassigned using traditional database searching. Here we address key experimental and computational challenges to facilitate practical discovery of this important post-translational modification during shotgun proteomics analysis using low-resolution ion-trap mass spectrometers. Activity-based enrichment maximizes MS input of PKS/NRPS peptides, while targeted fragmentation detects putative PPant active sites. An improved data analysis pipeline allows experimental identification and validation of these PPant peptides directly from MS² data. Finally, a machine learning approach is developed to directly detect PPant peptides from only MS² fragmentation data. By providing new methods for analysis of an often cryptic post-translational modification, these methods represent a first step toward the study of natural product biosynthesis in proteomic settings.
