Investigation of membrane penetration depth and interactions of the amino-terminal domain of huntingtin: refined analysis by tryptophan fluorescence measurement. EUROPEAN BIOPHYSICS JOURNAL: EBJ 2014; 43:347-60. [PMID: 24895024 DOI: 10.1007/s00249-014-0966-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/10/2014] [Revised: 05/08/2014] [Accepted: 05/12/2014] [Indexed: 10/25/2022]
Abstract
The membrane-association properties of the amino-terminal domain of huntingtin are accompanied by subcellular redistribution of the protein in cellular compartments. In this study we used tryptophan substitution of amino-acid residues at different positions of the huntingtin 1-17 domain (Htt17) to precisely determine, for the first time, the depth of penetration of the peptides within the lipid bilayer. Initially, secondary structure preferences and membrane association properties were quantitatively determined for several membrane lipid compositions; they were found to be closely related to those of the natural peptide, indicating that changes in the sequence had little effect on these characteristics of the domain. The tryptophan-substituted peptides became inserted into the membranes' interfacial region, with average tryptophan positions between 7.5 and 11 Å from the bilayer center, in agreement with in-plane orientation of the peptide. Participation of the very-amino terminus of the peptide in the membrane-association process was demonstrated. The results not only revealed the occurrence of association intermediates when the huntingtin 1-17 anchoring sequence became inserted into the membrane but also suggest the formation of aggregates and/or oligomers during membrane association. When inserted, the F11W site was of crucial importance in lipid anchoring and stabilization of the whole peptide, whereas the terminal residues are located close to the membrane surface. The carboxy-terminal tryptophan (F17W), which also constitutes the site of the polyglutamine extension in the natural domain, was found closest to the aqueous environment, accompanied with the highest aqueous quenching constants. These results were used to propose a refined model of lipid interactions of the huntingtin 1-17 domain.

Abstract
A new approach is presented to evaluate the depth-dependent quenching of the fluorescence of membrane-bound probes and integral proteins. By utilizing at least three quenchers of known and distinctly different depths, the following parameters can be recovered: most probable depth of the probe; dispersion of the depth distribution, which will depend on the size of probe and fluctuations in its position; and quenching efficiency, which is related to the exposure of a particular fluorophore to the lipid phase. The exposure of tryptophan residues in integral proteins can be quantitatively determined with respect to the model compound (tryptophan octyl ester). The proposed method was applied to the investigation of membrane complexes of the bee venom melittin and cytochrome b5.

Abstract
Hydramacin-1 (HM1) from the metazoan Hydra exerts antimicrobial activity against a wide range of bacterial strains. Notably, HM1 induces the aggregation of bacterial cells, accompanied by precipitation. To date, the proposed mechanism of peptide-lipid interaction, termed the barnacle model, has not been described on the molecular level. Here, we show by biochemical and biophysical techniques that the lipid-peptide interactions of HM1 are initiated by electrostatic and hydrophobic effects, in particular, by tryptophan and neighboring polar amino acid residues that cause an interfacial localization of the peptide between two self-contained lipid bilayers. The high binding constants of HM1 upon lipid interaction are in the range of other potent antimicrobial peptides, e.g., magainin, and can be reasonably explained by two distinct epitopes on the surface of the peptide's global structure, which both contain SWT(K/R) motifs. The residues of this motif favor localization of the peptide in the head group region of phospholipid bilayers up to a penetration depth of 4 Å and a minor participation of the lipids' hydrocarbon regions. Our results expand the knowledge about the molecular modes of action antimicrobial peptides use to tackle their target cells. Furthermore, the aggregation of living bacteria by HM1 was observed for a broad range of Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Therefore, the detailed view of peptide-lipid interactions described by the barnacle model consolidates it among the established models.

Abstract
A group of membrane proteins having a single COOH-terminal hydrophobic domain capable of post-translational insertion into lipid bilayer is known as tail-anchored (TA) proteins. To clarify the insertion mechanism of the TA-domain of human cytochrome b(5) (Hcytb5) into ER membranes, we produced and purified various membrane-bound forms of Hcytb5 with their heme b-bound, in which various truncated forms of NH(2)-terminal bovine opsin sequence were appended at the COOH-terminus of the native form. We analyzed the integration of the TA-domains of these forms onto protein-free liposomes. The integration occurred efficiently even in the presence of a small amount of sodium cholate and, once incorporated, such proteoliposomes were very stable. The mode of the integration was further analyzed by treatment of the proteoliposomes with trypsin either on the extravesicular side or on the luminal side. LC-MS analyses of the trypsin digests obtained from the proteoliposomes indicated that most of the C-terminal hydrophilic segment of the native Hcytb5 were exposed towards the lumen of the vesicles and, further, a significant part of the population of the extended C-terminal hydrophilic segments of the modified Hcytb5 were exposed in the lumen as well, suggesting efficient translocation ability of the TA-domain without any assistance from other protein factors. Present results opened a route for the use of the C-terminal TA-domain as a convenient tool for the transport of proteins as well as short peptides into artificial liposomes.

Abstract
Structural biology of membrane proteins has rapidly evolved into a new frontier of science. Although solving the structure of a membrane protein with atomic-level resolution is still a major challenge, separated local field (SLF) NMR spectroscopy has become an invaluable tool in obtaining structural images of membrane proteins under physiological conditions. Recent studies have demonstrated the use of rotating-frame SLF techniques to accurately measure strong heteronuclear dipolar couplings between directly bonded nuclei. However, in these experiments, all weak dipolar couplings are suppressed. On the other hand, weak heteronuclear dipolar couplings can be measured using laboratory-frame SLF experiments, but only at the expense of spectral resolution for strongly dipolar coupled spins. In the present study, we implemented two-dimensional proton-evolved local-field (2D PELF) pulse sequences using either composite zero cross-polarization (COMPOZER-CP) or windowless isotropic mixing (WIM) for magnetization transfer. These PELF sequences can be used for the measurement of a broad range of heteronuclear dipolar couplings, allowing for a complete mapping of protein dynamics in a lipid bilayer environment. Experimental results from magnetically aligned bicelles containing uniformly (15)N-labeled cytochrome b(5) are presented and theoretical analyses of the new PELF sequences are reported. Our results suggest that the PELF-based experimental approaches will have a profound impact on solid-state NMR spectroscopy of membrane proteins and other membrane-associated molecules in magnetically aligned bicelles.

Abstract
We investigated the direct constitution of membrane proteins into giant liposomes in cell-free (in vitro) protein synthesis. Giant liposomes were present in a translation reaction cocktail of a wheat germ cell-free protein translation system. Apo cytochrome b(5) (b5) and its fusion proteins were synthesized and directly localized in the liposomes. After the translation reaction, the proteo-liposomes were isolated by simplified discontinuous density-gradient centrifugation. Apo cytochrome b(5) conjugated dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR) was synthesized in the same procedure and the protein was directly displayed on the liposome surface. b5 acts as a "hydrophobic tag" for recruitment to the liposome surface.

Abstract
Visinin-like protein-3, which is one of the neuronal calcium sensors, has been shown to be mainly expressed in cerebellar Purkinje cells, but cellular function of this protein has not yet been elucidated. We examined the tissue distribution of murine visinin-like protein-3 transcripts using real-time reverse transcription-PCR. Visinin-like protein-3 mRNA was found to be expressed in peripheral tissues. Particularly, the expression of the transcript in the thymus was significantly higher than in other peripheral tissues. In addition, B6RVTC1 thymoma cells robustly expressed visinin-like protein-3 mRNA. To identify a target protein of visinin-like protein-3, we performed a pull-down experiment using glutathione S-transferase-tagged visinin-like protein-3 and two-dimensional electrophoresis. We demonstrated that microsomal cytochrome b(5) was a Ca(2+)-dependent binding partner of visinin-like protein-3. In a co-immunoprecipitation experiment, it was observed that hippocalcin, as well as visinin-like protein-3, could interact with cytochrome b(5). Furthermore, we confirmed that the sequence Val(114)-Tyr(127) at the C-terminal tail of cytochrome b(5) is the minimal structural requirement for binding to visinin-like protein-3. In addition, the loop His(19)-His(25) at the N terminus of visinin-like protein-3 is essential for binding to cytochrome b(5). Microsomal cytochrome b(5) was also shown to be a potential activator of cytochrome P450. The present findings raise the possibility that visinin-like protein-3 may link Ca(2+) signaling to the machinery of microsomal monooxygenase complex composed of cytochrome b(5), cytochrome P450, and some reductases. This report provides the first evidence of an interaction between visinin-like protein-3 and microsomal cytochrome b(5).

Abstract
Fluorescence quenching is used to gain information on the exposure of tryptophan residues to lipid in membrane-bound proteins and peptides. A protocol is developed to calculate this exposure, based on a comparison of quenching efficiency and of a fluorescence lifetime (or quantum yield) measured for a protein and for a model tryptophan-containing compound. Various methods of analysis of depth-dependent quenching are compared and three universal measures of quenching profile are derived. One of the measures, related to the area under profile, is used to estimate quenching efficiency. The method is applied to single tryptophan mutants of a membrane-anchoring nonpolar peptide of cytochrome b(5) and of an outer membrane protein A. Analysis of quenching of the cytochrome's nonpolar peptide by a set of four brominated lipids reveals a temperature-controlled reversible conformational change, resulting in increased exposure of tryptophan to lipid and delocalization of its transverse position. Kinetic quenching profiles and fluorescence binding kinetics reported by Kleinschmidt et al. (Biochemistry (1999) 38, 5006-5016) were analyzed to extract information on the relative exposure of tryptophan residues during folding of an outer membrane protein A. Trp-102, which translocates across the bilayer, was found to be noticeably shielded from the lipid environment throughout the folding event compared to Trp-7, which remains on the cis side. The approach described here provides a new tool for studies of low-resolution structure and conformational transitions in membrane proteins and peptides.

Abstract
Depth-dependent fluorescence quenching in membranes is playing an increasingly important role in the determination of the low resolution structure of membrane proteins. This paper presents a graphical way of visualizing membrane quenching caused by lipid-attached bromines or spin labels with the help of a depth-dependent fluorescence quenching profile. Two methods are presently available to extract information on membrane penetration from quenching: the parallax method (PM; ) and distribution analysis (DA; A. S. Biophys. J. 64:290a (Abstr.); A. S. Methods Enzymol. 278:462-473). Analysis of various experimental and simulated data by these two methods is presented. The effects of uncertainty in the local concentration of quenching lipids (due to protein shielding or nonideality in lipid mixing), the existence of multiple conformations of membrane-bound protein, incomplete binding, and uncertainty in the fluorescence in nonquenching lipid are described. Regardless of the analytical form of the quenching profile (Gaussian function for DA or truncated parabola for PM), it has three primary characteristics: position on the depth scale, area, and width. The most important result, not surprisingly, is that one needs three fitting parameters to describe the quenching. This will keep the measures of the quenching profile independent of each other resulting in the reduction of systematic errors in depth determination. This can be achieved by using either DA or a suggested modification of the PM that introduces a third parameter related to quenching efficiency. Because DA utilizes a smooth fitting function, it offers an advantage for the analysis of deeply penetrating probes, where the effects of transleaflet quenching should be considered.

Abstract
The membrane topography of proteins that convert between soluble and membrane-inserted states has proven a challenging problem. In particular, it has been difficult to define both whether a transmembrane orientation is achieved and what are the boundaries of membrane-inserted segments. In this report the fluorescence of bimane-labeled Cys residues and the binding of anti-BODIPY antibodies to BODIPY-labeled Cys residues are combined to define these features for helices TH8 and TH9 of the T domain of diphtheria toxin. Using a series of labeled residues the topography of these helices was examined in both conformations of membrane-inserted T domain identified previously (Wang, Y., Malenbaum, S. E., Kachel, K., Zhan, H., Collier, R. J., and London, E. (1997) J. Biol. Chem. 272, 25091-25098). In the shallowly inserted conformation these helices are found to be aligned close to the cis surface of the bilayer all along their sequences. In contrast, in the more deeply inserted conformation most TH8 and TH9 residues examined located in a non-polar environment, with the boundaries of the membrane-inserted sequences close to residues 324 and 372-374 on the cis (insertion) side of the bilayer. It was also found that residues 348 and 349, which are in the loop connecting TH8 and TH9, reached the opposite trans side of the bilayer, but did not protrude fully into the aqueous environment. These boundaries suggest the membrane-inserted segments of TH8 and TH9 form transmembrane helices about 25 residues in length, and suggest that they are connected by a tight turn. It is concluded that this combination of fluorescent techniques can be combined to obtain transmembrane helix topography.

Abstract
When cytochrome b5 is added to large unilamellar vesicles (LUVs) of 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoylphosphatidylcholine (POPC), it binds predominantly in a 'loose,' or transferable form. Prolonged incubation of 30 degrees C leads to insertion in the physiological 'tight,' nontransferable form, with a halftime for the loose --> tight conversion of approx. 9 days. In this study, the effect of cholesterol on the rate of tight insertion was determined. Tight binding was assayed by depleting the LUVs of loose cytochrome b5 with an excess of SUV acceptors and then separating the liposome populations by gel-filtration or velocity sedimentation. Incorporation of cholesterol into the LUVs was found to markedly increase the rate of tight insertion, even though cholesterol decreases the equilibrium binding constant and saturation level of protein binding. The effect is not a continuously increasing function of cholesterol content, but attains a maximum at 20-25% mol%, where the rate enhancement is approx. 10-fold over baseline. At higher cholesterol levels, the rate decreases, returning to baseline at 40 mol% cholesterol. These observations are highly unusual in that cholesterol generally decreases the membrane binding affinity and the permeability of solutes, and does so as a monotonic function of cholesterol concentration (above the liquid-crystalline phase transition of the phospholipids). It is suggested that tight insertion is enhanced by lipid-protein packing mismatches and by bilayer fluidity; the former increases monotonically with increasing cholesterol whereas the latter decreases monotonically. At 20-25 mol% cholesterol the optimum balance of these physical properties is obtained for tight insertion.

Abstract
The fluorescence of a membrane-bound tryptophan derivative (tryptophan octyl ester, TOE) has been examined as a model for tryptophan fluorescence from proteins in membrane environments. The depth-dependent fluorescence quenching of TOE by brominated lipids was found to proceed via a dynamic mechanism with vertical fluctuations playing a central role in the process. The activation energy for the quenching was estimated to be 1.3 kcal/mole. The data were analyzed using the distribution analysis (DA) method, which extends the conventional parallax method to account more realistically for the transbilayer distributions of both probe and quencher and for possible variations in the probe's accessibility. DA provides a better fit than the parallax method to data collected with TOE in membranes formed of lipids brominated at either the 4,5, the 6,7, the 9,10, or the 11,12 positions of the sn-2 acyl chain. DA yields information on the fluorophore's most probable depth in the membrane, its conformational heterogeneity, and its accessibility to the lipid phase. Previously reported data on cytochrome b5 and melittin were reanalyzed together with data obtained with TOE. This new analysis demonstrates conformational heterogeneity in melittin and provides estimates of the freedom of motion and exposure to the lipid phase of membrane-embedded tryptophans of cytochrome b5.
