Lanthanoid tagging via an unnatural amino acid for protein structure characterization

Lanthanoid tagging via an unnatural amino acid for protein structure characterization

Abstract

Lanthanoid pseudo-contact shift (PCS) provides long-range structural information between a paramagnetic tag and protein nuclei. However, for proteins with native cysteines, site-specific attachment may only utilize functional groups orthogonal to sulfhydryl chemistry. Here we report two lanthanoid probes, DTTA-C3-yne and DTTA-C4-yne, which can be conjugated to an unnatural amino acid pAzF in the target protein via azide-alkyne cycloaddition. Demonstrated with ubiquitin and cysteine-containing enzyme EIIB, we show that large PCSs of distinct profiles can be generated for each tag/lanthanoid combination. The DTTA-based lanthanoid tags are associated with large magnetic susceptibility tensors owing to the rigidity of the tags. In particular, introduction of the DTTA-C3 tag affords intermolecular PCSs and enables structural characterization of a transient protein complex between ubiquitin and a UBA domain. Together, we have expanded the repertoire of paramagnetic tags and the applicability of paramagnetic NMR.

One of the main issues in successful execution is the incorporation of a paramagnetic metal ion into diamagnetic proteins.

An efficient protocol for incorporation of an unnatural amino acid in perdeuterated recombinant proteins using glucose-based media An efficient protocol for incorporation of an unnatural amino acid in perdeuterated recombinant proteins using glucose-based media Abstract The in vivo incorporation of unnatural amino acids into proteins is a well-established technique requiring an orthogonal tRNA/aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase pair specific for the unnatural amino acid that is incorporated at a position encoded by a TAG amber codon. Although this technology provides unique opportunities to engineer protein structures, poor protein yields are usually obtained in deuterated media, hampering its application in the protein NMR...	nmrlearner	Journal club	0	02-21-2012 03:40 AM
Site-specific labeling of proteins with NMR-active unnatural amino acids Site-specific labeling of proteins with NMR-active unnatural amino acids Abstract A large number of amino acids other than the canonical amino acids can now be easily incorporated in vivo into proteins at genetically encoded positions. The technology requires an orthogonal tRNA/aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase pair specific for the unnatural amino acid that is added to the media while a TAG amber or frame shift codon specifies the incorporation site in the protein to be studied. These unnatural amino acids can be isotopically labeled and provide unique opportunities for site-specific labeling...	nmrlearner	Journal club	0	01-09-2011 12:46 PM
