Structural basis of the dynamic human CEACAM1 monomer-dimer equilibrium.

ABSTRACT: Human (h) carcinoembryonic antigen-related cell adhesion molecule 1 (CEACAM1) function depends upon IgV-mediated homodimerization or heterodimerization with host ligands, including hCEACAM5, hTIM-3, PD-1, and a variety of microbial pathogens. However, there is little structural information available on how hCEACAM1 transitions between monomeric and dimeric states which in the latter case is critical for initiating hCEACAM1 activities. We therefore mutated residues within the hCEACAM1 IgV GFCC' face including V39, I91, N97, and E99 and examined hCEACAM1 IgV monomer-homodimer exchange using differential scanning fluorimetry, multi-angle light scattering, X-ray crystallography and/or nuclear magnetic resonance. From these studies, we describe hCEACAM1 homodimeric, monomeric and transition states at atomic resolution and its conformational behavior in solution through NMR assignment of the wildtype (WT) hCEACAM1 IgV dimer and N97A mutant monomer. These studies reveal the flexibility of the GFCC' face and its important role in governing the formation of hCEACAM1 dimers and selective heterodimers.

Project description:Although bovine beta-lactoglobulin assumes a monomeric native structure at pH 3 in the absence of salt, the addition of salts stabilizes the dimer. Thermodynamics of the monomer-dimer equilibrium dependent on the salt concentration were studied by sedimentation equilibrium. The addition of NaCl, KCl, or guanidine hydrochloride below 1 M stabilized the dimer in a similar manner. On the other hand, NaClO(4) was more effective than other salts by about 20-fold, suggesting that anion binding is responsible for the salt-induced dimer formation, as observed for acid-unfolded proteins. The addition of guanidine hydrochloride at 5 M dissociated the dimer into monomers because of the denaturation of protein structure. In the presence of either NaCl or NaClO(4), the dimerization constant decreased with an increase in temperature, indicating that the enthalpy change (DeltaH(D)) of dimer formation is negative. The heat effect of the dimer formation was directly measured with an isothermal titration calorimeter by titrating the monomeric beta-lactoglobulin at pH 3.0 with NaClO(4). The net heat effects after subtraction of the heat of salt dilution, corresponding to DeltaH(D), were negative, and were consistent with those obtained by the sedimentation equilibrium. From the dependence of dimerization constant on temperature measured by sedimentation equilibrium, we estimated the DeltaH(D) value at 20 degrees C and the heat capacity change (DeltaC(p)) of dimer formation. In both NaCl and NaClO(4), the obtained DeltaC(p) value was negative, indicating the dominant role of burial of the hydrophobic surfaces upon dimer formation. The observed DeltaC(p) values were consistent with the calculated value from the X-ray dimeric structure using a method of accessible surface area. These results indicated that monomer-dimer equilibrium of beta-lactoglobulin at pH 3 is determined by a subtle balance of hydrophobic and electrostatic effects, which are modulated by the addition of salts or by changes in temperature.
