Data set of intrinsically disordered proteins analysed at a local protein conformation level.

ABSTRACT: Intrinsic Disorder Proteins (IDPs) have become a hot topic since their characterisation in the 90s. The data presented in this article are related to our research entitled "A structural entropy index to analyse local conformations in Intrinsically Disordered Proteins" published in Journal of Structural Biology [1]. In this study, we quantified, for the first time, continuum from rigidity to flexibility and finally disorder. Non-disordered regions were also highlighted in the ensemble of disordered proteins. This work was done using the Protein Ensemble Database (PED), which is a useful database collecting series of protein structures considered as IDPs. The data set consists of a collection of cleaned protein files in classical pdb format that can be readily used as an input with most automatic analysis software. The accompanying data include the coding of all structural information in terms of a structural alphabet, namely Protein Blocks (PBs). An entropy index derived from PBs that allows apprehending the continuum between protein rigidity to flexibility to disorder is included, with information from secondary structure assignment, protein accessibility and prediction of disorder from the sequences. The data may be used for further structural bioinformatics studies of IDPs. It can also be used as a benchmark for evaluating disorder prediction methods.

Protein kinases phosphorylate long disordered regions in intrinsically disordered proteins.

Project description:Phosphorylation is a major post-translational modification that plays a central role in signaling pathways. Protein kinases phosphorylate substrates (phosphoproteins) by adding phosphate at Ser/Thr or Tyr residues (phosphosites). A large amount of data identifying and describing phosphosites in phosphoproteins has been reported but the specificity of phosphorylation is not fully resolved. In this report, data of kinase-substrate pairs identified by the Kinase-Interacting Substrate Screening (KISS) method were used to analyze phosphosites in intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) of intrinsically disordered proteins. We compared phosphorylated and nonphosphorylated IDRs and found that the phosphorylated IDRs were significantly longer than nonphosphorylated IDRs. The phosphorylated IDR is often the longest IDR (71%) in a phosphoprotein when only a single phosphosite exists in the IDR, and when the phosphoprotein has multiple phosphosites in an IDR(s), the phosphosites are primarily localized in a single IDR (78%) and this IDR is usually the longest one (81%). We constructed a stochastic model of phosphorylation to estimate the effect of IDR length. The model that accounted for IDR length produced more realistic results when compared with a model that excluded the IDR length. We propose that the IDR length is a significant determinant for locating kinase phosphorylation sites in phosphoproteins.

Intrinsically disordered proteins and proteins with intrinsically disordered regions in neurodegenerative diseases.

Project description:Many different intrinsically disordered proteins and proteins with intrinsically disordered regions are associated with neurodegenerative diseases. These types of proteins including amyloid-β, tau, α-synuclein, CHCHD2, CHCHD10, and G-protein coupled receptors are increasingly becoming evaluated as potential drug targets in the pharmaceutical-based treatment approaches. Here, we focus on the neurobiology of this class of proteins, which lie at the center of numerous neurodegenerative diseases, such as Alzheimer's and Parkinson's diseases, Huntington's disease, amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, frontotemporal dementia, Charcot-Marie-Tooth diseases, spinal muscular atrophy, and mitochondrial myopathy. Furthermore, we discuss the current treatment design strategies involving intrinsically disordered proteins and proteins with intrinsically disordered regions in neurodegenerative diseases. In addition, we emphasize that although the G-protein coupled receptors are traditionally investigated using structural biology-based models and approaches, current studies show that these receptors are proteins with intrinsically disordered regions and therefore they require new ways for their analysis.

Taurine Induces an Ordered but Functionally Inactive Conformation in Intrinsically Disordered Casein Proteins.

Project description:Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) are involved in various important biological processes, such as cell signalling, transcription, translation, cell division regulation etc. Many IDPs need to maintain their disordered conformation for proper function. Osmolytes, natural organic compounds responsible for maintaining osmoregulation, have been believed to regulate the functional activity of macromolecules including globular proteins and IDPs due to their ability of modulating the macromolecular structure, conformational stability, and functional integrity. In the present study, we have investigated the effect of all classes of osmolytes on two model IDPs, α- and β-casein. It was observed that osmolytes can serve either as folding inducers or folding evaders. Folding evaders, in general, do not induce IDP folding and therefore had no significant effect on structural and functional integrity of IDPs. On the other hand, osmolytes taurine and TMAO serve as folding inducers by promoting structural collapse of IDPs that eventually leads to altered structural and functional integrity of IDPs. This study sheds light on the osmolyte-induced regulation of IDPs and their possible role in various disease pathologies.

IDPpi: Protein-Protein Interaction Analyses of Human Intrinsically Disordered Proteins.

Project description:Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) are characterized by the lack of a fixed tertiary structure and are involved in the regulation of key biological processes via binding to multiple protein partners. IDPs are malleable, adapting to structurally different partners, and this flexibility stems from features encoded in the primary structure. The assumption that universal sequence information will facilitate coverage of the sparse zones of the human interactome motivated us to explore the possibility of predicting protein-protein interactions (PPIs) that involve IDPs based on sequence characteristics. We developed a method that relies on features of the interacting and non-interacting protein pairs and utilizes machine learning to classify and predict IDP PPIs. Consideration of both sequence determinants specific for conformational organizations and the multiplicity of IDP interactions in the training phase ensured a reliable approach that is superior to current state-of-the-art methods. By applying a strict evaluation procedure, we confirm that our method predicts interactions of the IDP of interest even on the proteome-scale. This service is provided as a web tool to expedite the discovery of new interactions and IDP functions with enhanced efficiency.

Phosphorylation regulates the binding of intrinsically disordered proteins via a flexible conformation selection mechanism.

Project description:Phosphorylation is one of the most common post-translational modifications. The phosphorylation of the kinase-inducible domain (KID), which is an intrinsically disordered protein (IDP), promotes the folding of KID and binding with the KID-interacting domain (KIX). However, the regulation mechanism of the phosphorylation on KID is still elusive. In this study, the structural ensembles and binding process of pKID and KIX are studied by all-atom enhanced sampling technologies. The results show that more hydrophobic interactions are formed in pKID, which promote the formation of the special hydrophobic residue cluster (HRC). The pre-formed HRC promotes binding to the correct sites of KIX and further lead the folding of pKID. Consequently, a flexible conformational selection model is proposed to describe the binding and folding process of intrinsically disordered proteins. The binding mechanism revealed in this work provides new insights into the dynamic interactions and phosphorylation regulation of proteins.

Regulation of protein phosphatase 1 by intrinsically disordered proteins.

Project description:PP1 (protein phosphatase 1) is an essential serine/threonine phosphatase that plays a critical role in a broad range of biological processes, from muscle contraction to memory formation. PP1 achieves its biological specificity by forming holoenzymes with more than 200 known regulatory proteins. Interestingly, most of these regulatory proteins (? 70%) belong to the class of IDPs (intrinsically disordered proteins). Thus structural studies highlighting the interaction of these IDP regulatory proteins with PP1 are an attractive model system because it allows general parameters for a group of diverse IDPs that interact with the same binding partner to be identified, while also providing fundamental insights into PP1 biology. The present review provides a brief overview of our current understanding of IDP-PP1 interactions, including the importance of pre-formed secondary and tertiary structures for PP1 binding, as well as changes of IDP dynamics upon interacting with PP1.

Folding of Intrinsically Disordered Protein Phosphatase 1 Regulatory Proteins.

Project description:Intrinsically disordered but biologically active proteins, commonly referred to as IDPs, are readily identified in many biological systems and play critical roles in multiple protein regulatory processes. While disordered in their unbound states, IDPs often, but not always, fold upon binding with their protein interaction partners. Here, we discuss how a class of IDPs directs the targeting, specificity and activity of Protein Phosphatase 1 (PP1). PP1 is major ser/thr phosphatase that plays a critical role in a broad range of biological processes, from muscle contraction to memory formation. In the cell, PP1 is regulated through its interaction with more than 200 regulatory proteins, the majority of which are IDPs. Critically, these PP1:regulatory protein holoenzyme complexes confer specificity to PP1 and are thus the functional forms of the PP1 enzyme in vivo. Furthermore, we discuss the distinct modes of interaction utilized by IDPs to complex with their protein binding partners. We subsequently show, by integrating multiple biophysical tools, that the majority of IDPs that regulate PP1, prefer a conformational selection model.

Interplay between intrinsically disordered proteins inside membraneless protein liquid droplets.

Project description:Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) in cells phase separate to form diverse membraneless organelles, which have condensed liquid droplet-like properties and often contain multiple IDPs. However, how potential interactions between different IDPs affect the dynamic behavior of these protein droplets is largely unknown. Here, we develop a rapid IDP clustering system to generate protein droplets with varied residue compositions and examine diverse interacting IDPs inside droplets. Three different IDP droplets actively recruited other diverse IDPs inside droplets with extremely varied enrichment (inside/outside) degrees (over 100-fold variation) under highly crowded conditions. The recruited IDPs were mostly mobile even inside highly immobile droplets. Among the five tested IDPs, the disordered region of Ddx4 helicase with its unique multiple charged residue blocks was noticeably influenced by droplet mobility. We also discovered that droplets of different IDPs could rapidly fuse to each other. Interestingly, some droplets were heterogeneously fused with segregated subcompartments, and this segregation was enhanced by droplet maturation and was more apparent for specific IDP pairs, in which the polar and charged residue compositions are highly different. The present study not only reports multiple peculiar behaviors of interacting IDP pairs inside droplets but also provides valuable information on generating membraneless organelle models with controllable droplet properties.
