Enhancement of The Stability of Human Growth Hormone by Using Tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane: Molecular Docking and Experimental Analysis.

ABSTRACT:

Objective

It is so difficult to formulate human growth hormone (hGH) in a solution with high stability and new drug delivery system (NDDs) due to physiochemical instability. The purpose of this study was to investigate the possibility of using Tris as a hGH stabilizer.

Materials and methods

In this experimental study, the role of tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane (Tris) was evaluated as a hGH stabilizing agent in phosphate buffer, as a practical aqueous solution and a media to release NDDs. Highperformance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and enzyme-linked immune sorbent assay (ELISA) were applied to investigate the stability of hGH in solutions and dynamic light scattering (DLS) was used to measure the effect of Tris on the hydrodynamic size of hGH in aqueous solutions. Ultra violet (UV) spectrophotometry was used to check the hGH spectrum. In computational study, formation of ligand-protein complex of the Tris-hGH, and the intermolecular interactions between Tris and hGH were studied by molecular docking modeling.

Results

The results demonstrated that Tris at the optimum concentration, increases hGH stability in aqueous solutions. Also, molecular docking modeling confirmed that amino acid residues such as tyrosine (Tyr), proline (Pro), glutamic acid (Glu), aspartic acid (Asp), leucine (Leu), and phenylalanine (Phe) in hGH structure, were linked with Tris as a ligand.

Conclusion

It seems that interactions between hGH and Tris are the most important reason for increment of the physicochemical stability of hGH in aqueous solutions containing Tris.

Project description:Protein thermal stability is an important factor considered in medical and industrial applications. Many structural characteristics related to protein thermal stability have been elucidated, and increasing salt bridges is considered as one of the most efficient strategies to increase protein thermal stability. However, the accurate simulation of salt bridges remains difficult. In this study, a novel method for salt-bridge design was proposed based on the statistical analysis of 10,556 surface salt bridges on 6,493 X-ray protein structures. These salt bridges were first categorized based on pairing residues, secondary structure locations, and Cα-Cα distances. Pairing preferences generalized from statistical analysis were used to construct a salt-bridge pair index and utilized in a weighted electrostatic attraction model to find the effective pairings for designing salt bridges. The model was also coupled with B-factor, weighted contact number, relative solvent accessibility, and conservation prescreening to determine the residues appropriate for the thermal adaptive design of salt bridges. According to our method, eight putative salt-bridges were designed on a mesophilic β-glucosidase and 24 variants were constructed to verify the predictions. Six putative salt-bridges leaded to the increase of the enzyme thermal stability. A significant increase in melting temperature of 8.8, 4.8, 3.7, 1.3, 1.2, and 0.7°C of the putative salt-bridges N437K-D49, E96R-D28, E96K-D28, S440K-E70, T231K-D388, and Q277E-D282 was detected, respectively. Reversing the polarity of T231K-D388 to T231D-D388K resulted in a further increase in melting temperatures by 3.6°C, which may be caused by the transformation of an intra-subunit electrostatic interaction into an inter-subunit one depending on the local environment. The combination of the thermostable variants (N437K, E96R, T231D and D388K) generated a melting temperature increase of 15.7°C. Thus, this study demonstrated a novel method for the thermal adaptive design of salt bridges through inference of suitable positions and substitutions.
