Abstract
Respiratory complex I (R-CI) is an essential enzyme in the mitochondrial electron transport chain but also a major source of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which are implicated in neurodegenerative diseases and ageing. While the mechanism of ROS production by R-CI is well-established, the feedback of ROS on R-CI activity is poorly understood. Here, we perform EPR spectroscopy on R-CI incorporated in artificial membrane vesicles to reveal that ROS (particularly hydroxyl radicals) reduce R-CI activity by making the membrane more polar and by increasing its hydrogen bonding capability. Moreover, the mechanism that we have uncovered reveals that the feedback of ROS on R-CI activity via the membrane is transient and not permanent; lipid peroxidation is negligible for the levels of ROS generated under these conditions. Our successful use of modular proteoliposome systems in conjunction with EPR spectroscopy and other biophysical techniques is a powerful approach for investigating ROS effects on other membrane proteins.

Shaping membrane interfaces in lipid vesicles mimicking the cytoplasmic leaflet of myelin through variation of cholesterol and myelin basic protein contents. BIOCHIMICA ET BIOPHYSICA ACTA. BIOMEMBRANES 2023; 1865:184179. [PMID: 37244538 DOI: 10.1016/j.bbamem.2023.184179] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/08/2022] [Revised: 04/23/2023] [Accepted: 05/20/2023] [Indexed: 05/29/2023]
Abstract
Myelin basic protein (MBP) is an intrinsically disordered protein and in the central nervous system (CNS) mainly responsible for connecting the cytoplasmic surfaces of the multilamellar, compact myelin. Increased posttranslational modification of MBP is linked to both, the natural development (from adolescent to adult brains) of myelin, and features of multiple sclerosis. Here, we study how a combination of this intrinsically disordered myelin protein with varying the natural cholesterol content may alter the characteristics of myelin-like membranes and interactions between these membranes. Large unilamellar vesicles (LUVs) with a composition mimicking the cytoplasmic leaflet of myelin were chosen as the model system, in which different parameters contributing to the interactions between the lipid membrane and MBP were investigated. While we use cryo-transmission electron microscopy (TEM) for imaging, dynamic light scattering (DLS) and electrophoretic measurements through continuously-monitored phase-analysis light scattering (cmPALS) were used for a more global overview of particle size and charge, and electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy was utilized for local behavior of lipids in the vesicles' membranes in aqueous solution. The cholesterol content was varied from 060 % in these LUVs and measurements were performed in the presence and absence of MBP. We find that the composition of the lipid layers is relevant to the interaction with MBP. Not only the size, the shape and the aggregation behavior of the vesicles depend on the cholesterol content, but also within each membrane, cholesterol's freedom of movement, its environmental polarity and its distribution were found to depend on the content using the EPR-active spin-labeled cholesterol (CSOSL). In addition, DLS and EPR measurements probing the transition temperatures of the lipid phases allow a correlation of specific behavior with the human body temperature of 37 °C. Overall, our results aid in understanding the importance of the native cholesterol content in the healthy myelin membrane, which serves as the basis for stable and optimum protein-bilayer interactions. Although studied in this specific myelin-like system, from a more general and materials science-oriented point of view, we could establish how membrane and vesicle properties depend on cholesterol and/or MBP content, which might be useful generally when specific membrane and vesicle characteristics are sought for.

Abstract
Neurodegenerative disorders are among the most common diseases in modern society. However, the molecular bases of diseases such as multiple sclerosis or Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease remain far from being fully understood. Research in this field is limited by the complex nature of native myelin and by difficulties in obtaining good in vitro model systems of myelin. Here, we introduce an easy-to-use model system of the myelin sheath that can be used to study myelin proteins in a native-like yet well-controlled environment. To this end, we present myelin-mimicking nanodiscs prepared through one of the amphiphilic copolymers styrene/maleic acid (SMA), diisobutylene/maleic acid (DIBMA), and styrene/maleimide sulfobetaine (SMA-SB). These nanodiscs were tested for their lipid composition using chromatographic (HPLC) and mass spectrometric (MS) methods and, utilizing spin probes within the nanodisc, their comparability with liposomes was studied. In addition, their binding behavior with bovine myelin basic protein (MBP) was scrutinized to ensure that the nanodiscs represent a suitable model system of myelin. Our results suggest that both SMA and SMA-SB are able to solubilize the myelin-like (cytoplasmic) liposomes without preferences for specific lipid headgroups or fatty acyl chains. In nanodiscs of both SMA and SMA-SB (called SMA(-SB)-lipid particles, short SMALPs or SMA-SBLPs, respectively), the polymers restrict the lipids' motion in the hydrophobic center of the bilayer. The headgroups of the lipids, however, are sterically less hindered in nanodiscs when compared with liposomes. Myelin-like SMALPs are able to bind bovine MBP, which can stack the lipid bilayers like in native myelin, showing the usability of these simple, well-controlled systems in further studies of protein-lipid interactions of native myelin.

Abstract
With this study we aim at comparing the well-known lipid membrane model system of liposomes and polymer-encapsulated nanodiscs regarding their lipid properties. Using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and continuous-wave electron paramagnetic resonance (CW EPR) spectroscopy, we characterize the temperature-dependent lipid behavior within 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DMPC) liposomes and nanodiscs made from such liposomes by application of various polymers based on styrene-co-maleic acid (SMA), diisobutylene-alt-maleic acid (DIBMA), and styrene-co-maleic amide sulfobetaine (SMA-SB), a new SMA-derived copolymer containing sulfobetaine side chains. By incorporating a spin label doxyl moiety into the lipid bilayer in position 16 or 5 we were able to study the micropolarity as well as rotational restrictions onto the lipids in the apolar bilayer center and the chain region adjacent to the carbonyl groups, respectively. Our results suggest that all polymers broaden the main melting transition of DMPC, change the water accessibility within the lipid bilayer, and exhibit additional constraints onto the lipids. Independent of the used polymer, the rotational mobility of both spin-labeled lipids decreased with DIBMA exerting less restraints probably due to its aliphatic side chains. Our findings imply that the choice of the solubilizing polymer has to be considered an important step to form lipid nanodiscs which should be included into research of lipid membranes and membrane proteins in the future.

Abstract
Spin labels based on cinobufagin, a specific inhibitor of the Na,K-ATPase, have proved valuable tools to characterize the binding site of cardiotonic steroids (CTSs), which also constitutes the extracellular cation pathway. Because existing literature suggests variations in the physiological responses caused by binding of different CTSs, we extended the original set of spin-labeled inhibitors to the more potent bufalin derivatives. Positioning of the spin labels within the Na,K-ATPase site was defined and visualized by molecular docking. Although the original cinobufagin labels exhibited lower affinity, continuous-wave electron paramagnetic resonance spectra of spin-labeled bufalins and cinobufagins revealed a high degree of pairwise similarity, implying that these two types of CTS bind in the same way. Further analysis of the spectral lineshapes of bound spin labels was performed with emphasis on their structure (PROXYL vs. TEMPO), as well as length and rigidity of the linkers. For comparable structures, the dynamic flexibility increased in parallel with linker length, with the longest linker placing the spin label at the entrance to the binding site. Temperature-related changes in spectral lineshapes indicate that six-membered nitroxide rings undergo boat-chair transitions, showing that the binding-site cross section can accommodate the accompanying changes in methyl-group orientation. D2O-electron spin echo envelope modulation in pulse-electron paramagnetic resonance measurements revealed high water accessibilities and similar polarity profiles for all bound spin labels, implying that the vestibule leading to steroid-binding site and cation-binding sites is relatively wide and water-filled.

Abstract
Spin label electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) of lipid-protein interactions reveals crucial features of the structure and assembly of integral membrane proteins. Spin-label EPR spectroscopy is the technique of choice to characterize the protein solvating lipid shell in its highly dynamic nature, because the EPR spectra of lipids that are spin-labeled close to the terminal methyl end of their acyl chains display two spectral components, those corresponding to lipids directly contacting the protein and those corresponding to lipids in the bulk fluid bilayer regions of the membrane. In this chapter, typical spin label EPR procedures are presented that allow determination of the stoichiometry of interaction of spin-labeled lipids with the intramembranous region of membrane proteins or polypeptides, as well as the association constant of the spin-labeled lipid with respect to the host lipid. The lipids giving rise to a so-called immobile spectral component in the EPR spectrum of such samples are identified as the motionally restricted first-shell lipids solvating membrane proteins in biomembranes. Stoichiometry and selectivity are directly related to the structure of the intramembranous sections of membrane-associated proteins or polypeptides and can be used to study the state of assembly of such proteins in the membrane. Since these characteristics of lipid-protein interactions are discussed in detail in the literature (see ref. Marsh, Eur Biophys J 39:513-525, 2010 for a recent review), here we focus more on how to spin label model membranes and biomembranes and how to measure and analyze the two-component EPR spectra of spin-labeled lipids in phospholipid bilayers that contain proteins or polypeptides. After a description of how to prepare spin-labeled model and native biological membranes, we present the reader with computational procedures for determining the molar fraction of motionally restricted lipids when both, one or none of the pure isolated-mobile or immobile-spectral components are available. With these topics, this chapter complements a previous methodological paper (Marsh, Methods 46:83-96, 2008). The interpretation of the data is discussed briefly, as well as other relevant and recent spin label EPR techniques for studying lipid-protein interactions, not only from the point of view of lipid chain dynamics.
