Stabilization of Functional Recombinant Cannabinoid Receptor CB2 in Detergent Micelles and Lipid Bilayers Stabilization of Functional Recombinant Cannabinoid Receptor CB2 in Detergent Micelles and Lipid Bilayers Krishna Vukoti¤, Tomohiro Kimura, Laura Macke, Klaus Gawrisch, Alexei Yeliseev* National Institute on Alcohol Abuse and Alcoholism, National Institutes of Health, Bethesda, Maryland, United States of America Abstract Elucidation of the molecular mechanisms of activation of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) is among the most challenging tasks for modern membrane biology. For studies by high resolution analytical methods, these integral membrane receptors have to be expressed in large quantities, solubilized from cell membranes and purified in detergent micelles, which may result in a severe destabilization and a loss of function. Here, we report insights into differential effects of detergents, lipids and cannabinoid ligands on stability of the recombinant cannabinoid receptor CB2, and provide guidelines for preparation and handling of the fully functional receptor suitable for a wide array of downstream applications. While we previously described the expression in Escherichia coli, purification and liposome-reconstitution of multi-milligram quantities of CB2, here we report an efficient stabilization of the recombinant receptor in micelles - crucial for functional and structural characterization. The effects of detergents, lipids and specific ligands on structural stability of CB2 were assessed by studying activation of G proteins by the purified receptor reconstituted into liposomes. Functional structure of the ligand binding pocket of the receptor was confirmed by binding of 2H-labeled ligand measured by solid- state NMR. We demonstrate that a concerted action of an anionic cholesterol derivative, cholesteryl hemisuccinate (CHS) and high affinity cannabinoid ligands CP-55,940 or SR-144,528 are required for efficient stabilization of the functional fold of CB2 in dodecyl maltoside (DDM)/CHAPS detergent solutions. Similar to CHS, the negatively charged phospholipids with the serine headgroup (PS) exerted significant stabilizing effects in micelles while uncharged phospholipids were not effective. The purified CB2 reconstituted into lipid bilayers retained functionality for up to several weeks enabling high resolution structural studies of this GPCR at physiologically relevant conditions.

The article by Huysmans et al. in this issue of PNAS (1) represents a breakthrough by reporting a compre- hensive ϕ-value analysis of the folding of a membrane protein (i.e., PagP) into a lipid bilayer. ϕ-value analysis is the most powerful tool for experimental analysis of protein folding pathways (2). It com- bines protein engineering with equilibrium and kinetic measurements to determine which regions of a protein are largely fol- ded (high ϕ-values) or largely unfolded (low ϕ-values) at the rate-limiting transition state.

  • Making Water-Soluble Integral Membrane Proteins in Vivo Using an Amphipathic Protein Fusion Strategy
    ARTICLE Received 13 Nov 2014 | Accepted 3 Mar 2015 | Published 8 Apr 2015 DOI: 10.1038/ncomms7826 OPEN Making water-soluble integral membrane proteins in vivo using an amphipathic protein fusion strategy Dario Mizrachi1, Yujie Chen2, Jiayan Liu3, Hwei-Ming Peng3, Ailong Ke4, Lois Pollack2, Raymond J. Turner5, Richard J. Auchus3 & Matthew P. DeLisa1 Integral membrane proteins (IMPs) play crucial roles in all cells and represent attractive pharmacological targets. However, functional and structural studies of IMPs are hindered by their hydrophobic nature and the fact that they are generally unstable following extraction from their native membrane environment using detergents. Here we devise a general strategy for in vivo solubilization of IMPs in structurally relevant conformations without the need for detergents or mutations to the IMP itself, as an alternative to extraction and in vitro solubilization. This technique, called SIMPLEx (solubilization of IMPs with high levels of expression), allows the direct expression of soluble products in living cells by simply fusing an IMP target with truncated apolipoprotein A-I, which serves as an amphipathic proteic ‘shield’ that sequesters the IMP from water and promotes its solubilization. 1 School of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, Cornell University, Ithaca, New York 14853, USA. 2 School of Applied and Engineering Physics, Cornell University, Ithaca, New York 14853, USA. 3 Department of Internal Medicine, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, Michigan 48109, USA. 4 Department of Molecular Biology and Genetics, Cornell University, Ithaca, New York 14850, USA. 5 Department of Biological Sciences, University of Calgary, Calgary, Alberta, Canada T2N 1N4.

Masthay The purple membrane (PM) of the salt–loving bacterium H. Salinarium owes both its color and physiological function to the protein bacteriorhodopsin (BR). The PM is comprised of BR trimers arranged in a crystalline hexagonal lattice. PM converts to an ultraviolet–induced colorless membrane (UVCM) upon exposure to diffuse ultraviolet (UV) light through a 1–monomer 1–photon process and to a laser–induced blue membrane (LIBM) upon exposure to intense green laser pulses through a 1–monomer 2– photon process. The color changes which BR molecules undergo depend on the (1) BR aggregation state (e.g. crystalline trimeric PM and monomers) (2) wavelength of light (3) intensity of the light and (4) divalent cations, as earlier results indicate that calcium ions (Ca2+) are removed from the PM surface during the PM LIBM photoconversion.
