Assessment of Thermal Stability of Mutant p53 Proteins via Differential Scanning Fluorimetry.

ABSTRACT: The p53 protein is a transcription factor that preserves the integrity of the genome. The TP53 gene has inactivating mutations in about 50% of all human cancers. Some missense mutations lead to decreased thermal stability in the p53 protein, its unfolding and aggregation under physiological conditions. A general understanding of the impact of point mutations on the stability and conformation of mutant p53 is essential for the design and development of small molecules that target specific p53 mutations. In this work, we determined the thermostability properties of some of the most common mutant forms of the p53 protein-p53(R273H), p53(R248Q), p53(R248W) and p53(Y220C)-that are often considered as attractive therapeutic targets. The results showed that these missense mutations lead to destabilization of the p53 protein and a decrease in its melting temperature.

Project description:Protein instability is a major obstacle in the production and delivery of monoclonal antibody-based therapies for cancer. This study presents real-time isothermal differential scanning fluorimetry as an emerging method to evaluate the stability of human immunoglobulin G protein with high sensitivity. The stability of polyclonal human immunoglobulin G against urea-induced denaturation was assessed following: (1) oxidation by the free-radical generator 2,2-Azobis[2-amidinopropane]dihydrochloride and (2) in selected storage buffers. Significant differences in immunoglobulin G stability were detected by real-time isothermal differential scanning fluorimetry when the immunoglobulin G was stored in 1,4-Piperazinediethanesulfonic acid buffer compared to phosphate-buffered saline, with half-maximal rate of denaturation occurring at a higher urea concentration in 1,4-Piperazinediethanesulfonic acid than phosphate-buffered saline (Knd;PIPES = 3.56 ± 0.09 M, Knd;PBS = 2.94 ± 0.08 M; P < .01), but differential scanning fluorimetry did not detect differences in unfolding temperature (Tm;PIPES = 70.5 ± 0.3°C, Tm;PBS = 69.7 ± 0.2°C). The effects of 2,2-Azobis[2-amidinopropane]dihydrochloride-induced oxidation on immunoglobulin G stability were analyzed by real-time isothermal differential scanning fluorimetry; the oxidized protein showed greater sensitivity to urea (Knd;CNTRL = 3.96 ± 0.19 M, Knd;AAPH = 3.49 ± 0.07 M; P < .05). Similarly, differential scanning fluorimetry indicated greater thermal sensitivity of oxidized immunoglobulin G (Tm;CNTRL = 70.5 ± 0.3°C, Tm;AAPH = 62.9 ± 0.1°C; P < .001). However, a third method for assessing protein stability, pulse proteolysis, proved to be substantially less sensitive and did not detect significant effects of 2,2-Azobis[2-amidinopropane]dihydrochloride on the half-maximal concentration of urea needed to denature immunoglobulin G (Cm;CNTRL= 6.8 ± 0.1 M; Cm;AAPH = 6.4 ± 0.7 M). Overall these results demonstrate the merit of using real-time isothermal differential scanning fluorimetry as a rapid and sensitive technique for the evaluation of protein stability in solution using a quantitative real-time thermocycler.
