A Perspective on Mechanisms of Protein Tetramer Formation
Biophysical Journal Volume 85 December 2003 3587–3599 3587 A Perspective on Mechanisms of Protein Tetramer Formation Evan T. Powers* and David L. Powersy *Department of Chemistry, The Scripps Research Institute, La Jolla, California 92037; and yDepartment of Mathematics and Computer Science, Clarkson University, Potsdam, New York 13699 ABSTRACT Homotetrameric proteins can assemble by several different pathways, but have only been observed to use one, in which two monomers associate to form a homodimer, and then two homodimers associate to form a homotetramer. To determine why this pathway should be so uniformly dominant, we have modeled the kinetics of tetramerization for the possible pathways as a function of the rate constants for each step. We have found that competition with the other pathways, in which homotetramers can be formed either by the association of two different types of homodimers or by the successive addition of monomers to homodimers and homotrimers, can cause substantial amounts of protein to be trapped as intermediates of the assembly pathway. We propose that this could lead to undesirable consequences for an organism, and that selective pressure may have caused homotetrameric proteins to evolve to assemble by a single pathway. INTRODUCTION Many proteins must be homotetrameric to be functional. ‘‘MDT’’ stands for monomer-dimer-tetramer and ‘‘a’’ and Prominent examples include transcription factors (e.g., p53) ‘‘b’’ indicate the type of homodimer formed.

Received: 5 March 2020; Accepted: 5 April 2020; Published: 7 April 2020 Abstract: KcsA, a prokaryote tetrameric potassium channel, was the first ion channel ever to be structurally solved at high resolution. This, along with the ease of its expression and purification, made KcsA an experimental system of choice to study structure–function relationships in ion channels. In fact, much of our current understanding on how the different channel families operate arises from earlier KcsA information. Being an integral membrane protein, KcsA is also an excellent model to study how lipid–protein and protein–protein interactions within membranes, modulate its activity and structure. In regard to the later, a variety of equilibrium and non-equilibrium methods have been used in a truly multidisciplinary effort to study the effects of lipids on the KcsA channel.

The way in which TRPA1 cytoplasmic domain modification is coupled to opening 25 of the ion-conducting pore has yet to be elucidated. The cryo-EM structure of TRPA1 26 revealed a tetrameric C-terminal coiled-coil surrounded by N-terminal ankyrin repeat 27 domains (ARDs), an architecture shared with the canonical transient receptor potential 28 (TRPC) ion channel family.

Said destabilization is directly related to the inability of the mutant species to assemble into a compact tetrameric structure. Hence, the tetramerization domain of protein p53 and its mutants with compromised oligomerization properties represent an excellent case for designing ligands able to recognize and stabilize the native state of oligomeric proteins. Taking as a model the structure of the wild-type p53TD, Prof. Javier de Mendoza envisioned a multivalent calix[4]arene ligand able to interact simultaneously with the four units of the tetramer, thereby holding together the whole structure of the protein. The rational binding model is shown in Figure 2.1. The multivalent ligand in question is the 5,11,17,23-tetraguanidinomethyl-25,26-27,28- biscrown-3-calix[4]arene, named calix4bridge for shorter. 23 4/ Calix4bridge presents two biscrown loops in the lower rim of the calix[4]arene platform; they outline an hydrophobic surface that can fit into a hydrophobic pocket on the protein surface, formed by the -helices of the four monomers.

Effects of Polymorphic Variation on the Thermostability of Heterogenous
www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Efects of polymorphic variation on the thermostability of heterogenous populations of Received: 20 April 2018 Accepted: 23 July 2018 CYP3A4 and CYP2C9 enzymes in Published: xx xx xxxx solution Lauren B. Arendse & Jonathan M. Blackburn The efect of non-synonymous single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) on cytochrome P450 (CYP450) drug metabolism is currently poorly understood due to the large number of polymorphisms, the diversity of potential substrates and the complexity of CYP450 function. Previously we carried out in silico studies to explore the efect of SNPs on CYP450 function, using in silico calculations to predict the efect of mutations on protein stability. Here we have determined the efect of eight CYP3A4 and seven CYP2C9 SNPs on the thermostability of proteins in solution to test these predictions. Thermostability assays revealed distinct CYP450 sub-populations with only 65–70% of wild-type CYP3A4 and CYP2C9 susceptible to rapid heat-induced P450 to P420 conversion. CYP3A4 mutations G56D, P218R, S222P, I223R, L373F and M445T and CYP2C9 mutations V76M, I359L and I359T were destabilising, increasing the proportion of protein sensitive to the rapid heat-induced P450 to P420 conversion and/ or reducing the half-life of this conversion. CYP2C9 Q214L was the only stabilising mutation. These results corresponded well with the in silico protein stability calculations, confrming the value of these predictions and together suggest that the changes in thermostability result from destabilisation/ stabilisation of the protein fold, changes in the haem-binding environment or efects on oligomer formation/conformation. Cytochrome P450 (CYP450) enzymes, arguably nature’s most versatile catalysts, are a superfamily of haem-thiolate proteins found across all lineages of life1.

5. Directed Evolution of Artificial Metalloenzymes: Bridging Synthetic Chemistry and Biology Ruijie K
1 5. Directed evolution of artificial metalloenzymes: bridging synthetic chemistry and biology Ruijie K. Zhang1, David K. Romney1, S. B. Jennifer Kan1, Frances H. Arnold1 1Division of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, California Institute of Technology, Pasadena, CA 91125, USA. Abstract: Directed evolution is a powerful algorithm for engineering proteins to have novel and useful properties. However, we do not yet fully understand the characteristics of an evolvable system. In this chapter, we present examples where directed evolution has been used to enhance the performance of metalloenzymes, focusing first on ‘classical’ cases such as improving enzyme stability or expanding the scope of natural reactivity. We then discuss how directed evolution has been extended to artificial systems, in which a metalloprotein catalyzes reactions using abiological reagents or in which the protein utilizes a non-natural cofactor for catalysis. These examples demonstrate that directed evolution can also be applied to artificial systems to improve catalytic properties, such as activity and enantioselectivity, and to favor a different product than that favored by small-molecule catalysts. Future work will help define the extent to which artificial metalloenzymes can be altered and optimized by directed evolution and the best approaches for doing so. Keywords: directed evolution, fitness landscape, non-natural reactivity, artificial metalloenzyme 5.1. Evolution enables chemical innovation Nature is expert at taking one enzyme framework and repurposing it to perform a multitude of chemical transformations. For example, the P450 superfamily consists of structurally similar heme-containing proteins that catalyze C–H oxygenation, alkene epoxidation, oxidative cyclization (1), aryl-aryl coupling (2), and nitration (3), among others (4).
