[ccp4bb] measuring shape complementarity

2010-12-06 Thread Salameh, Mohd A., Ph.D.
Dear All,
I'm looking for a free program that I can use to measure the geometric
surface complementarity of protein-protein interfaces. I have created
inhibitor mutants that possess different binding affinities to their
cognate enzyme and it would be very helpful if I can quantify the shape
complementarity of the protein/protein interfaces. The complexes of
inhibitors and enzyme crystal structures have been solved at high
resolution (~1.4A). Sincere thanks in advance and hope to hear from you
soon.
Kind regards,
Mohd Salameh 



[ccp4bb] pH dependent conformational change

2010-12-06 Thread Daniel Jin




Dear CCP4 colleagues,

 

We have a protein that is composed of two domains
connected by a short peptide linker. We have some indirect evidence showing
that the two domains may somehow move against each other when exposed to
different pH. It is unlikely to have any obvious secondary structure change 
since
each domain behaves like a rigid body. I am wondering whether there is any 
“easy”
way, biochemically or biophysically, to monitor the conformational changes in
solution. Many thanks.

 

As far as I know most of the pH sensing stories are
linked to histidine residue. Can you point me to any references that show a
different pH sensing mechanism (other than His)? Thanks.

 

Best,

Daniel

Daniel,

You'll probably have to monitor pH changes through size changes of your 
protein, provided the structural changes will indeed cause size changes. 

You said "easy", so that probably rules out Small-Angle X-Ray Scattering 
(SAXS), but that would be the highest-resolution method. You can try static and 
dynamic light scattering, analytical ultracentrifugation and fluorescence 
anisotropy. If you are really lucky, size exclusion chromatography might work 
too.

And then there are the "difficult" ways...

Hi

SAXS can be a right tool. However, how big is "short peptide linker"?

Check Nature paper by Askarieh G. and Hedhammar M. for non-His pH

2010-12-06 Thread Roopa Thapar
If there are backbone NMR assignments available then, definately a pH titration 
using HSQCs would give site specific information.  These are easy experiments 
if someone can help you set them up.
The perturbations should map to the inter-domain interface.

If there are no assignments for the protein, spectral changes in response to pH 
would be harder to interpret.  You could try FRET by introducing two probes - 
one in each domain.

Re: [ccp4bb] pH dependent conformational change

2010-12-06 Thread Roopa Thapar
I agree that the experiment is a good one and can easily be done, but without 
assignments I think the interpretation could be ambiguous.  
 
pH dependent chemical shift perturbations could occur far removed from the 
linker (either due to a conformational change or the change in chemical 
environment around the amide nucleus) 
and without any information about which residues are shifting it may be 
difficult to conclude that these perturbations are due to a change in domain 
orientation rather than other subtle
pH dependent effects.
   
If there are no perturbations, then of course one can conclude little or no 
conformational changes occur.  The magnitude of the perturbation would depend 
on how extensive the conformational change is.

One could specifically label the protein with 15N-labeled amino acids that are 
particularly unique to the linker - this would simplify the spectrum and the 
data may be easier to interpret.

It is a good experiment to try however.

Re: [ccp4bb] helix translation

2010-12-06 Thread Sergei Strelkov

Dear Young-Tae,

The program Twister (Strelkov and Burkhard, 2002) can calculate this,
among other things. If you are interested I would gladly send you
the program.

Of course one should look into the reason for your helix having
an aberrant geometry. If it is just a slightly distorted a-helix
then you should still see the classical hydrogen bonding pattern between
the mainchain atoms.

Best wishes,
Sergei
