Theoretical classification of exchange geometries from the perspective of NMR relaxation dispersion.

ABSTRACT: NMR relaxation dispersion experiments have been widely applied to probe important conformational exchange of macro-molecules in many biological systems. The current improvements in computational techniques as well as the theoretical breakthroughs make the quantitative data analysis of complex exchange models possible. However, the topology of a given exchange model is also one of the main factors affecting the solution of Bloch-McConnell equation. The lack of a theoretical analysis of the exchange topologies at n-site exchange hinders further progress of such data analysis. Here, using graph theory, we reveal the topological complexity of n-site exchange and present all exchange models when n is less than 6. Furthermore, we introduce an alternative way, using machine learning, to select an exchange model based on a set of relaxation dispersion data without fitting them with every individual exchange model.

Probing RNA dynamics via longitudinal exchange and CPMG relaxation dispersion NMR spectroscopy using a sensitive 13C-methyl label.

Project description:The refolding kinetics of bistable RNA sequences were studied in unperturbed equilibrium via (13)C exchange NMR spectroscopy. For this purpose a straightforward labeling technique was elaborated using a 2'-(13)C-methoxy uridine modification, which was prepared by a two-step synthesis and introduced into RNA using standard protocols. Using (13)C longitudinal exchange NMR spectroscopy the refolding kinetics of a 20 nt bistable RNA were characterized at temperatures between 298 and 310K, yielding the enthalpy and entropy differences between the conformers at equilibrium and the activation energy of the refolding process. The kinetics of a more stable 32 nt bistable RNA could be analyzed by the same approach at elevated temperatures, i.e. at 314 and 316 K. Finally, the dynamics of a multi-stable RNA able to fold into two hairpin- and a pseudo-knotted conformation was studied by (13)C relaxation dispersion NMR spectroscopy.

Accelerating 2D NMR relaxation dispersion experiments using iterated maps.

Project description:NMR relaxation dispersion experiments play a central role in exploring molecular motion over an important range of timescales, and are an example of a broader class of multidimensional NMR experiments that probe important biomolecules. However, resolving the spectral features of these experiments using the Fourier transform requires sampling the full Nyquist grid of data, making these experiments very costly in time. Practitioners often reduce the experiment time by omitting 1D experiments in the indirectly observed dimensions, and reconstructing the spectra using one of a variety of post-processing algorithms. In prior work, we described a fast, Fourier-based reconstruction method using iterated maps according to the Difference Map algorithm of Veit Elser (DiffMap). Here we describe coDiffMap, a new reconstruction method that is based on DiffMap, but which exploits the strong correlations between 2D data slices in a pseudo-3D experiment. We apply coDiffMap to reconstruct dispersion curves from an [Formula: see text] relaxation dispersion experiment, and demonstrate that the method provides fast reconstructions and accurate relaxation curves down to very low numbers of sparsely-sampled data points.

Mechanism of E-cadherin dimerization probed by NMR relaxation dispersion.

Project description:Epithelial cadherin (E-cadherin), a member of the classical cadherin family, mediates calcium-dependent homophilic cell-cell adhesion. Crystal structures of classical cadherins reveal an adhesive dimer interface featuring reciprocal exchange of N-terminal ?-strands between two protomers. Previous work has identified a putative intermediate (called the "X-dimer") in the dimerization pathway of wild-type E-cadherin EC1-EC2 domains, based on crystal structures of mutants not capable of strand swapping and on deceleration of binding kinetics by mutations at the X-dimer interface. In the present work, NMR relaxation dispersion spectroscopy is used to directly observe and characterize intermediate states without the need to disrupt the strand-swapped binding interface by mutagenesis. The results indicate that E-cadherin forms strand-swapped dimers predominantly by a mechanism in which formation of a weak and short-lived X-dimer-like state precedes the conformational changes required for formation of the mature strand-swapped dimeric structure. Disruption of this intermediate state through mutation reduces both association and dissociation rates by factors of ~10(4), while minimally perturbing affinity. The X-dimer interface lowers the energy barrier associated with strand swapping and enables E-cadherins to form strand-swapped dimers at a rate consistent with residence times in adherens junctions.

Relaxation dispersion NMR spectroscopy for the study of protein allostery.

Project description:Allosteric transmission of information between distant sites in biological macromolecules often involves collective transitions between active and inactive conformations. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy can yield detailed information on these dynamics. In particular, relaxation dispersion techniques provide structural, dynamic, and mechanistic information on conformational transitions occurring on the millisecond to microsecond timescales. In this review, we provide an overview of the theory and analysis of Carr-Purcell-Meiboom-Gill (CPMG) relaxation dispersion NMR experiments and briefly describe their application to the study of allosteric dynamics in the homeodomain from the PBX transcription factor (PBX-HD). CPMG NMR data show that local folding (helix/coil) transitions in one part of PBX-HD help to communicate information between two distant binding sites. Furthermore, the combination of CPMG and other spin relaxation data show that this region can also undergo local misfolding, reminiscent of conformational ensemble models of allostery.

Characterization of Chemical Exchange Using Relaxation Dispersion of Hyperpolarized Nuclear Spins.

Project description:Chemical exchange phenomena are ubiquitous in macromolecules, which undergo conformational change or ligand complexation. NMR relaxation dispersion (RD) spectroscopy based on a Carr-Purcell-Meiboom-Gill pulse sequence is widely applied to identify the exchange and measure the lifetime of intermediate states on the millisecond time scale. Advances in hyperpolarization methods improve the applicability of NMR spectroscopy when rapid acquisitions or low concentrations are required, through an increase in signal strength by several orders of magnitude. Here, we demonstrate the measurement of chemical exchange from a single aliquot of a ligand hyperpolarized by dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization (D-DNP). Transverse relaxation rates are measured simultaneously at different pulsing delays by dual-channel 19F NMR spectroscopy. This two-point measurement is shown to allow the determination of the exchange term in the relaxation rate expression. For the ligand 4-(trifluoromethyl)benzene-1-carboximidamide binding to the protein trypsin, the exchange term is found to be equal within error limits in neutral and acidic environments from D-DNP NMR spectroscopy, corresponding to a pre-equilibrium of trypsin deprotonation. This finding illustrates the capability for determination of binding mechanisms using D-DNP RD. Taking advantage of hyperpolarization, the ligand concentration in the exchange measurements can reach on the order of tens of ?M and protein concentration can be below 1 ?M, i.e., conditions typically accessible in drug discovery.

Ligand-detected relaxation dispersion NMR spectroscopy: dynamics of preQ1-RNA binding.

Project description:An NMR-based approach to characterizing the binding kinetics of ligand molecules to biomolecules, like RNA or proteins, by ligand-detected Carr-Purcell-Meiboom-Gill (CPMG) relaxation dispersion experiments is described. A (15)N-modified preQ1 ligand is used to acquire relaxation dispersion experiments in the presence of low amounts of the Fsu class?I preQ1 aptamer RNA, and increasing ligand concentrations to probe the RNA small molecule interaction. Our experimental data strongly support the conformational selection mechanism postulated. The approach gives direct access to two parameters of a ligand-receptor interaction: the off rate and the population of the small molecule-receptor complex. A detailed description of the kinetics underlying the ligand binding process is of crucial importance to fully understanding a riboswitch's function and to evaluate potential new antibiotics candidates targeting the noncoding RNA species. Ligand-detected NMR relaxation dispersion experiments represent a valuable diagnostic tool for the characterization of binding mechanisms.

Phi-value analysis for ultrafast folding proteins by NMR relaxation dispersion.

Project description:Proteins that fold rapidly, on the (sub-) microsecond time scale, offer the prospect of direct comparison between experimental data and molecular dynamics simulations. However, experimental studies for such proteins frequently are hindered because folding rates are too fast to measure using conventional stopped-flow methods. To overcome this impediment, NMR spin relaxation dispersion experiments are used to quantify mutational effects on kinetics (DeltaDeltaG(o)), stability (DeltaDeltaG(o)), and phi-values (DeltaDeltaG(dagger)/DeltaDeltaG(o)) for proteins exhibiting chemical exchange line broadening that is fast on the NMR chemical shift time scale. The accuracy of phi-value analysis is enhanced because mutational effects on denatured or intermediate states can be detected through changes in line broadening. The transition and intermediate states of the villin headpiece domain, HP67, are characterized in varying solvent conditions to validate the method.

Substrate-modulated ADP/ATP-transporter dynamics revealed by NMR relaxation dispersion.

Project description:The ADP/ATP carrier (AAC) transports ADP and ATP across the inner mitochondrial membrane. Unlike most transporters, which have two-fold direct or inverted quasisymmetry, AAC has apparent three-fold rotational symmetry. Further, its transport rate is relatively fast for transporters that carry large solutes. Here, we study the yeast AAC carrier 3 by obtaining comprehensive NMR relaxation dispersion measurements, which provide residue-specific information on the protein's conformational exchange. Our data indicate that AAC is predominantly in the cytosol-facing open state and converts to a sparsely populated state in an asymmetric manner despite its three-fold structural symmetry. Binding of the substrate ADP substantially increases the rate of conformational exchange, whereas the inhibitor CATR slows the exchange. These results suggest that although the transporter catalyzes the translocation of substrate the substrate also facilitates interconversion between alternating states, and this interconversion may be relevant to the transport function.
