TAILIEUCHUNG - Báo cáo khoa học: Rational design of a conformation-switchable Ca2+- and Tb3+-binding protein without the use of multiple coupled metal-binding sites

Ca 2+ , as a messenger of signal transduction, regulates numerous target molecules via Ca 2+ -induced conformational changes. Investigation into the determinants for Ca 2+ -induced conformational change is often impeded by cooperativity between multiple metal-binding sites or protein oligomeriza-tion in naturally occurring proteins. | ễFEBS Journal Rational design of a conformation-switchable Ca2 - and Tb3 -binding protein without the use of multiple coupled metal-binding sites Shunyi Li1 2 Wei Yang3 Anna W.

Investigation into the determinants for Ca2 -induced conformational change is often impeded by cooperativity between multiple metal-binding sites or protein oligomerization in naturally occurring proteins. To dissect the relative contributions of key determinants for Ca2 -dependent conformational changes we report the design of a single-site Ca2 -binding protein created by altering charged residues at an electrostatically sensitive location on the surface of the host protein rat Cluster of Differentiation 2 CD2 . binds to Tb3 and Ca2 with dissociation constants of and 90 25 M respectively. This protein is largely unfolded in the absence of metal ions at physiological pH but Tb3 or Ca2 binding results in folding of the native-like conformation. Neutralization of the charged coordination residues either by mutation or protonation similarly induces folding of the protein. .
