Abstract
A combined biophysical approach was applied to map gas-docking sites within murine neuroglobin (Ngb), revealing snapshots of events that might govern activity and dynamics in this unique hexacoordinate globin, which is most likely to be involved in gas-sensing in the central nervous system and for which a precise mechanism of action remains to be elucidated. The application of UV-visible microspectroscopy in crystallo, solution X-ray absorption near-edge spectroscopy and X-ray diffraction experiments at 15-40 K provided the structural characterization of an Ngb photolytic intermediate by cryo-trapping and allowed direct observation of the relocation of carbon monoxide within the distal heme pocket after photodissociation. Moreover, X-ray diffraction at 100 K under a high pressure of dioxygen, a physiological ligand of Ngb, unravelled the existence of a storage site for O2 in Ngb which coincides with Xe-III, a previously described docking site for xenon or krypton. Notably, no other secondary sites were observed under our experimental conditions.

Abstract
Here, we report the preparation and photo-physical characterization of hexa-coordinated vertebrate globins, human neuroglobin (hNgb) and cytoglobin (hCygb), with the native iron protoporphyrin IX (FePPIX) cofactor replaced by a fluorescent isostructural analogue, zinc protoporphyrin IX (ZnPPIX). To facilitate insertion of ZnPPIX into hexa-coordinated globins, apoproteins prepared via butanone extraction were unfolded by the addition of GuHCl and subsequently slowly refolded in the presence of ZnPPIX. The absorption/emission spectra of ZnPPIX reconstituted hCygb are similar to those observed for ZnPPIX reconstituted myoglobin whereas the absorption and emission spectra of ZnPPIX reconstituted hNgb are blue shifted by ∼2 nm. Different steady state absorption and emission properties of ZnPPIX incorporated in hCygb and hNgb are consistent with distinct hydrogen bonding interactions between ZnPPIX and the globin matrix. The fluorescence lifetime of ZnPPIX in hexa-coordinated globins is bimodal pointing towards increased heterogeneity of the heme binding cavity in hCygb and hNgb. ZnPPIX reconstituted Ngb binds to cytochrome c with the same affinity as reported for the native protein, suggesting that fluorescent analogues of Cygb and Ngb can be readily employed to monitor interactions between vertebrate hexa-coordinated globins and other proteins.

Abstract
Human neuroglobin (Ngb) forms an intramolecular disulfide bond between Cys46 and Cys55, with a third Cys120 near the protein surface, which is a promising protein model for heme protein design. In order to protect the free Cys120 and to enhance the protein stability, we herein developed a strategy by designing an additional disulfide bond between Cys120 and Cys15 via A15C mutation. The design was supported by molecular modeling, and the formation of Cys15–Cys120 disulfide bond was confirmed experimentally by ESI-MS analysis. Molecular modeling, UV-Vis and CD spectroscopy showed that the additional disulfide bond caused minimal structural alterations of Ngb. Meanwhile, the disulfide bond of Cys15–Cys120 was found to enhance both Gdn·HCl-induced unfolding stability (increased by ∼0.64 M) and pH-induced unfolding stability (decreased by ∼0.69 pH unit), as compared to those of WT Ngb with a single native disulfide bond of Cys46–Cys55. Moreover, the half denaturation temperature (Tm) of A15C Ngb was determined to be higher than 100 °C. In addition, the disulfide bond of Cys15–Cys120 has slight effects on protein function, such as an increase in the rate of O2 release by ∼1.4-fold. This study not only suggests a crucial role of the artificial disulfide in protein stabilization, but also lays the groundwork for further investigation of the structure and function of Ngb, as well as for the design of other functional heme proteins, based on the scaffold of A15C Ngb with an enhanced stability. A disulfide bond of Cys120 and Cys15 was rationally designed in human neuroglobin (Ngb) by A15C mutation, which caused minimal structural alterations, whereas enhanced both chemical and pH stability, with a thermal stability higher than 100 °C.![]()

Abstract
Internal cavities are crucial for conformational flexibility of proteins and can be mapped through noble gas diffusion and docking. Here we investigate the hydrophobic cavities and tunnel network in neuroglobin (Ngb), a hexacoordinated heme protein likely to be involved in neuroprotection, using crystallography under noble gas pressure, mostly at room temperature. In murine Ngb, a large internal cavity is involved in the heme sliding mechanism to achieve binding of gaseous ligands through coordination to the heme iron. In this study, we report that noble gases are hosted by two major sites within the internal cavity. We propose that these cavities could store oxygen and allow its relay in the heme proximity, which could correspond to NO location in the nitrite-reductase function of Ngb. Thanks to a recently designed pressurization cell using krypton at high pressure, a new gas binding site has been characterized that reveals an alternate pathway for gaseous ligands. A new gas binding site on the proximal side of the heme has also been characterized, using xenon pressure on a Ngb mutant (V140W) that binds CO with a similar rate and affinity to the wild-type, despite a reshaping of the internal cavity. Moreover, this study, to our knowledge, provides new insights into the determinants of the heme sliding mechanism, suggesting that the shift at the beginning of helix G precedes and drives this process.

Abstract
Investigating the effect of pressure sheds light on the dynamics and plasticity of proteins, intrinsically correlated to functional efficiency. Here we detail the structural response to pressure of neuroglobin (Ngb), a hexacoordinate globin likely to be involved in neuroprotection. In murine Ngb, reversible coordination is achieved by repositioning the heme more deeply into a large internal cavity, the “heme sliding mechanism”. Combining high pressure crystallography and coarse-grain simulations on wild type Ngb as well as two mutants, one (V101F) with unaffected and another (F106W) with decreased affinity for CO, we show that Ngb hinges around a rigid mechanical nucleus of five hydrophobic residues (V68, I72, V109, L113, Y137) during its conformational transition induced by gaseous ligand, that the intrinsic flexibility of the F-G loop appears essential to drive the heme sliding mechanism, and that residue Val 101 may act as a sensor of the interaction disruption between the heme and the distal histidine.

Abstract
![]()
Neuroglobin
(Ngb) is a six-coordinate globin that can catalyze
the reduction of nitrite to nitric oxide. Although this reaction is
common to heme proteins, the molecular interactions in the heme pocket
that regulate this reaction are largely unknown. We have shown that
the H64L Ngb mutation increases the rate of nitrite reduction by 2000-fold
compared to that of wild-type Ngb [Tiso, M., et al. (2011) J. Biol. Chem. 286, 18277–18289]. Here we explore
the effect of distal heme pocket mutations on nitrite reduction. For
this purpose, we have generated mutations of Ngb residues Phe28(B10),
His64(E7), and Val68(E11). Our results indicate a dichotomy in the
reactivity of deoxy five- and six-coordinate globins toward nitrite.
In hemoglobin and myoglobin, there is a correlation between faster
rates and more negative potentials. However, in Ngb, reaction rates
are apparently related to the distal pocket volume, and redox potential
shows a poor relationship with the rate constants. This suggests a
relationship between the nitrite reduction rate and heme accessibility
in Ngb, particularly marked for His64(E7) mutants. In five-coordinate
globins, His(E7) facilitates nitrite reduction, likely through proton
donation. Conversely, in Ngb, the reduction mechanism does not rely
on the delivery of a proton from the histidine side chain, as His64
mutants show the fastest reduction rates. In fact, the rate observed
for H64A Ngb (1120 M–1 s–1) is
to the best of our knowledge the fastest reported for a heme nitrite
reductase. These differences may be related to a differential stabilization
of the iron–nitrite complexes in five- and six-coordinate globins.

Abstract
In this report, protein-modified quartz nanopipettes were used to quantitatively study protein-protein interactions in attoliter sensing volumes. As shown by numerical simulations, the ionic current through the conical-shaped nanopipette is very sensitive to the surface charge variation near the pore mouth. With the appropriate modification of negatively charged human neuroglobin (hNgb) onto the inner surface of a nanopipette, we were able to detect concentration-dependent current change when the hNgb-modified nanopipette tip was exposed to positively charged cytochrome c (Cyt c) with a series of concentrations in the bath solution. Such current change is due to the adsorption of Cyt c to the inner surface of the nanopipette through specific interactions with hNgb. In contrast, a smaller current change with weak concentration dependence was observed when Cyt c was replaced with lysozyme, which does not specifically bind to hNgb. The equilibrium dissociation constant (KD) for the Cyt c-hNgb complex formation was derived and the value matched very well with the result from surface plasmon resonance measurement. This is the first quantitative study of protein-protein interactions by a conical-shaped nanopore based on charge sensing. Our results demonstrate that nanopipettes can potentially be used as a label-free analytical tool to quantitatively characterize protein-protein interactions.

Abstract
Neuroglobin (Ngb) promotes neuron survival under hypoxic/ischemic conditions. In vivo and in vitro assays provide evidence for redox-regulated functioning of Ngb. On the basis of X-ray crystal structures and our MD simulations, a mechanism for redox control of human Ngb (hNgb) activity via the influence of the CD loop on the active site is proposed. We provide evidence that the CD loop undergoes a strand-to-helix transition when the external environment becomes sufficiently oxidizing, and that this CD loop conformational transition causes critical restructuring of the active site. We postulate that the strand-to-helix mechanics of the CD loop allows hNgb to utilize the lability of Cys46/Cys55 disulfide bonding and of the Tyr44/His64/heme propionate interaction network for redox-controlled functioning of hNgb.
