Determination of Hydrodynamic Radius of Proteins by Size Exclusion Chromatography

[Abstract]  Size exclusion chromatography (SEC) or gel filtration is a hydrodynamic technique that separates molecules in solution as a function of their size and shape. In the case of proteins, the hydrodynamic value that can be experimentally derived is the Stokes radius (Rs), which is the radius of a sphere with the same hydrodynamic properties (i.e., frictional coefficient) as the biomolecule. Determination of Rs by SEC has been widely used to monitor conformational changes induced by the binding of calcium (Ca2+) to many Ca2+-sensor proteins. For this class of proteins, SEC separation is based not just on the variation in protein size following Ca2+ binding, but likely arises from changes in the hydration shell structure.

[摘要]  尺寸排阻色谱法(SEC)或凝胶过滤是一种流体动力学技术,它将溶液中的分子作为其尺寸和形状的函数。在蛋白质的情况下,可以通过实验得出的流体动力学值是斯托克斯半径(R s),它是具有相同流体力学性质的球体的半径(即, >摩擦系数)作为生物分子。通过SEC测定R s已经被广泛用于监测由钙(Ca 2+)与许多Ca 2+连接引起的构象变化传感器蛋白。对于这类蛋白质,SEC分离不仅基于Ca 2 + 结合后的蛋白质尺寸变化,而且可能来自水合壳结构的变化。
该方案旨在使用快速蛋白质液相色谱(FPLC)系统对预填充柱进行凝胶过滤实验,以确定蛋白质的R 1,其中一些适用于Ca 2 + 传感器蛋白。

凝胶过滤基于其相对的能力分离不同大小和形状的分子,以穿透具有明确孔径的多孔珠床,其识别分馏范围。大于完全排除进入孔隙的分馏范围的分子快速流过色谱柱,首先以空间体积(V 0 O)(其为支持颗粒外的间隙体积)洗脱。能够扩散到珠的孔中的小于分级范围的分子具有可用于流动相的总体积,因此它们更缓慢地移动通过床并最后洗脱。具有中等维度的分子将以包含在流动相可利用的空隙体积和总体积之间的洗脱体积(V e e e e)被洗脱(分子越小,其进入孔隙越大矩阵,因此其V e e越大)。

[Abstract]  Heterotrimeric G proteins modulate intracellular signalling by transducing information from cell surface G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) to cytoplasmic effector proteins. Structural and functional characterisation of GPCR–G protein complexes is important to fully decipher the mechanism of signal transduction. However, native G proteins are unstable and conformationally dynamic when coupled to a receptor. We therefore developed an engineered minimal G protein, mini-Gs, which formed a stable complex with GPCRs, and facilitated the crystallisation and structure determination of the human adenosine A2A receptor (A2AR) in its active conformation. Mini G proteins are potentially useful tools in a variety of applications, including characterising GPCR ... [摘要]  异源三聚体G蛋白通过将细胞表面G蛋白偶联受体(GPCR)的信息转导至细胞质效应蛋白来调节细胞内信号传导。 GPCR-G蛋白复合物的结构和功能表征对于完全破译信号转导机制是重要的。然而,当与受体偶联时,天然G蛋白质是不稳定的并具有构象的动力学。因此,我们开发了一种工程化的最小G蛋白,其与GPCR形成稳定的复合物,促进了人腺苷A 2A受体的结晶和结构测定(A 2AR)的活性构象。 Mini G蛋白是各种应用中潜在有用的工具,包括表征GPCR药理学,结合亲和力和动力学实验,激动剂药物发现和GPCR-G蛋白复合物的结构测定。在这里,我们描述了一个用于表达和纯化mini-G 的详细方案。

我们最近报告了一种工程化的最小G蛋白质(Carpenter和Tate,2016)的开发,其促进了人腺苷A 2A受体的结晶( A 2 R 2)其活性构象(Carpenter等人,2016; Carpenter和Tate,2017)。不同于需要在真核系统中表达的异源三聚体G蛋白质,在大肠杆菌(大肠杆菌)中高度表达微型G蛋白,并且可以可以容易地纯化,每升培养物的产量为50-100mg的mini-G 。在这里,我们描述了早先在Carpenter和Tate(2016)中描述的可以用于前面描述的任何一种迷你G蛋白构建体的表达和纯化的逐步方案(Carpenter等人, ...
