Abstract
Membrane proteins are essential for the survival of living organisms. They are involved in important biological functions including transportation of ions and molecules across the cell membrane and triggering the signaling pathways. They are targets of more than half of the modern medical drugs. Despite their biological significance, information about the structural dynamics of membrane proteins is lagging when compared to that of globular proteins. The major challenges with these systems are low expression yields and lack of appropriate solubilizing medium required for biophysical techniques. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy coupled with site directed spin labeling (SDSL) is a rapidly growing powerful biophysical technique that can be used to obtain pertinent structural and dynamic information on membrane proteins. In this brief review, we will focus on the overview of the widely used EPR approaches and their emerging applications to answer structural and conformational dynamics related questions on important membrane protein systems.

Abstract
Membrane proteins possess a variety of functions essential to the survival of organisms. However, due to their inherent hydrophobic nature, it is extremely difficult to probe the structure and dynamic properties of membrane proteins using traditional biophysical techniques, particularly in their native environments. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy in combination with site-directed spin labeling (SDSL) is a very powerful and rapidly growing biophysical technique to study pertinent structural and dynamic properties of membrane proteins with no size restrictions. In this review, we will briefly discuss the most commonly used EPR techniques and their recent applications for answering structure and conformational dynamics related questions of important membrane protein systems.

Abstract
The balance of lipid-peptide and peptide-peptide interactions at cell membrane is essential to a large variety of cellular processes. In this study, we have experimentally demonstrated for the first time that sum frequency generation vibrational spectroscopy can be used to probe the peptide-peptide and lipid-peptide interactions in cell membrane in situ and in real time by determination of the line width of amide I band of protein backbone. Using a "benchmark" model of α-helical WALP23, it is found that the dominated lipid-peptide interaction causes a narrow line width of the amide I band, whereas the peptide-peptide interaction can markedly broaden the line width. When WALP23 molecules insert into the lipid bilayer, a quite narrow line width of the amide I band is observed because of the lipid-peptide interaction. In contrast, when the peptide lies down on the bilayer surface, the line width of amide I band becomes very broad owing to the peptide-peptide interaction. In terms of the real-time change in the line width, the transition from peptide-peptide interaction to lipid-peptide interaction is monitored during the insertion of WALP23 into 1,2-dipalmitoyl- sn-glycero-3-phospho-(1'- rac-glycerol) (DPPG) lipid bilayer. The dephasing time of a pure α-helical WALP23 in 1-palmitoyl-2-oleoyl- sn-glycero-3-phospho-(1'- rac-glycerol) and DPPG bilayer is determined to be 2.2 and 0.64 ps, respectively. The peptide-peptide interaction can largely accelerate the dephasing time.

Abstract
Understanding the functioning of ion channels, as well as utilizing their properties for biochemical applications requires control over channel activity. Herein we report a reversible control over the functioning of a mechanosensitive ion channel by interfering with its interaction with the lipid bilayer. The mechanosensitive channel of large conductance from Escherichia coli is reconstituted into liposomes and activated to its different sub-open states by titrating lysophosphatidylcholine (LPC) into the lipid bilayer. Activated channels are closed back by the removal of LPC out of the membrane by bovine serum albumin (BSA). Electron paramagnetic resonance spectra showed the LPC-dose-dependent gradual opening of the channel pore in the form of incrementally increasing spin label mobility and decreasing spin-spin interaction. A method to reversibly open and close mechanosensitive channels to distinct sub-open conformations during their journey from the closed to the fully open state enables detailed structural studies to follow the conformational changes during channel functioning. The ability of BSA to revert the action of LPC opens new perspectives for the functional studies of other membrane proteins that are known to be activated by LPC.

Abstract
We used coarse-grained molecular dynamics simulations to examine the effects of transmembrane α-helical WALP peptides on the behavior of four-component lipid mixtures. These mixtures contain a high-melting temperature (high-Tm) lipid, a nanodomain-inducing low-Tm lipid, a macrodomain-inducing low-Tm lipid and cholesterol to model the outer leaflet of cell plasma membranes. In a series of simulations, we incrementally replace the nanodomain-inducing low-Tm lipid by the macrodomain-inducing low-Tm lipid and measure how lipid and phase properties are altered by the addition of WALPs of different length. Regardless of the ratio of the two low-Tm lipids, shorter WALPs increase domain size and all WALPs increase domain alignment between the two leaflets. These effects are smallest for the longest WALP tested, and increase with increasing WALP concentration. Thus, our simulations explain the experimental observation that WALPs induce macroscopic domains in otherwise nanodomain-forming lipid-only mixtures (unpublished). Since the cell plasma membrane contains a large fraction of transmembrane proteins, these findings link the behavior of lipid-only model membranes in vitro to phase behavior in vivo.

Interaction of the amyloid β peptide with sodium dodecyl sulfate as a membrane-mimicking detergent. J Biol Phys 2016; 42:299-315.

Abstract
The amyloid β (A β) peptide is important in the context of Alzheimer’s disease, since it is one of the major components of the fibrils that constitute amyloid plaques. Agents that can influence fibril formation are important, and of those, membrane mimics are particularly relevant, because the hydrophobic part of A β suggests a possible membrane activity of the peptide. We employed spin-label EPR to investigate the aggregation process of A β1–40 in the presence of the sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) detergent as a membrane-mimicking agent. In this work, the effect of SDS on A β is studied using two positions of spin label, the N-terminus and position 26. By comparing the two label positions, the effect of local mobility of the spin label is eliminated, revealing A β aggregation in the SDS concentration regime below the critical micelle concentration (CMC). We demonstrate that, at low SDS concentrations, the N-terminus of A β participates in the solubilization, most likely by being located at the particle–water interface. At higher SDS concentrations, an SDS-solubilized state that is a precursor to the one A β/micelle state above the CMC of SDS prevails. We propose that A β is membrane active and that aggregates include SDS. This study reveals the unique potential of EPR in studying A β aggregation in the presence of detergent.

Abstract
Site-directed spin labeling (SDSL) in combination with electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy is a well-established method that has recently grown in popularity as an experimental technique, with multiple applications in protein and peptide science. The growth is driven by development of labeling strategies, as well as by considerable technical advances in the field, that are paralleled by an increased availability of EPR instrumentation. While the method requires an introduction of a paramagnetic probe at a well-defined position in a peptide sequence, it has been shown to be minimally destructive to the peptide structure and energetics of the peptide-membrane interactions. In this chapter, we describe basic approaches for using SDSL EPR spectroscopy to study interactions between small peptides and biological membranes or membrane mimetic systems. We focus on experimental approaches to quantify peptide-membrane binding, topology of bound peptides, and characterize peptide aggregation. Sample preparation protocols including spin-labeling methods and preparation of membrane mimetic systems are also described.

Abstract
In this article, we reviewed the interactions between dendrimers and surfactants with particular focus on the interaction mechanisms and physicochemical properties of the yielding dendrimer-surfactant aggregates. In order to provide insight into the behavior of dendrimers in biological systems, the interactions of dendrimers with bio-surfactants such as phospholipids in bulk solutions, in solid-supported bilayers and at the interface of phases or solid-states were discussed. Applications of the dendrimer-surfactant aggregates as templates to guide the synthesis of nanoparticles and in drug or gene delivery were also mentioned.

Abstract
MgtR, a highly hydrophobic peptide expressed in Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium, inhibits growth in macrophages through binding to the membrane protein MgtC that has been identified as essential for replication in macrophages. While the Mycobacterium tuberculosis MgtC is highly homologous to its S. Typhi analogue, there does not appear to be an Mtb homologue for MgtR, raising significant pharmacological interest in this system. Here, solid-state NMR and EPR spectroscopy in lipid bilayer preparations were used to demonstrate the formation of a heterodimer between S. Typhi MgtR and the transmembrane helix 4 of Mtb MgtC. Based on the experimental restraints, a structural model of this heterodimer was developed using computational techniques. The result is that MgtR appears to be ideally situated in the membrane to influence the functionality of MgtC.

Abstract
The organization and orientation of membrane-inserted helices is important for better understanding the mode of action of membrane-active peptides and of protein-membrane interactions. Here we report on the application of ESEEM (electron spin-echo envelope modulation) and DEER (double electron-electron resonance) techniques to probe the orientation and oligomeric state of an α-helical trans-membrane model peptide, WALP23, under conditions of negative mismatch between the hydrophobic cores of the model membrane and the peptide. Using ESEEM, we measured weak dipolar interactions between spin-labeled WALP23 and (2)H nuclei of either the solvent (D2O) or of lipids specifically deuterated at the choline group. The ESEEM data obtained from the deuterated lipids were fitted using a model that provided the spin label average distance from a layer of (2)H nuclei in the hydrophilic region of the membrane and the density of the (2)H nuclei in the layer. DEER was used to probe oligomerization through the dipolar interaction between two spin-labels on different peptides. We observed that the center of WALP23 does not coincide with the bilayer midplane and its N-terminus is more buried than the C-terminus. In addition, the ESEEM data fitting yielded a (2)H layer density that was much lower than expected. The DEER experiments revealed the presence of oligomers, the presence of which was attributable to the negative mismatch and the electrostatic dipole of the peptide. A discussion of a possible arrangement of the individual helices in the oligomers that is consistent with the ESEEM and DEER data is presented.

Abstract
We have used electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) to probe the homo- and heterooligomeric interactions of reconstituted sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca-ATPase (SERCA) and its regulator phospholamban (PLB). SERCA is responsible for restoring calcium to the sarcoplasmic reticulum to allow muscle relaxation, whereas PLB inhibits cardiac SERCA unless phosphorylated at Ser(16). To determine whether changes in protein association play essential roles in regulation, we detected the microsecond rotational diffusion of both proteins using saturation transfer EPR. Peptide synthesis was used to create a fully functional and monomeric PLB mutant with a spin label rigidly coupled to the backbone of the transmembrane helix, while SERCA was reacted with a Cys-specific spin label. Saturation transfer EPR revealed that sufficiently high lipid/protein ratios minimized self-association for both proteins. Under these dilute conditions, labeled PLB was substantially immobilized after co-reconstitution with unlabeled SERCA, reflecting their association to form the regulatory complex. Ser(16) phosphorylation slightly increased this immobilization. Complementary measurements with labeled SERCA showed no change in mobility after co-reconstitution with unlabeled PLB, regardless of its phosphorylation state. We conclude that phosphorylating monomeric PLB can relieve SERCA inhibition without changes in the oligomeric states of these proteins, indicating a structural rearrangement within the heterodimeric regulatory complex.

An AFM study of solid-phase bilayers of unsaturated PC lipids and the lateral distribution of the transmembrane model peptide WALP23 in these bilayers. EUROPEAN BIOPHYSICS JOURNAL: EBJ 2011; 40:825-33.

Abstract
An altered lipid packing can have a large influence on the properties of the membrane and the lateral distribution of proteins and/or peptides that are associated with the bilayer. Here, it is shown by contact-mode atomic force microscopy that the surface topography of solid-phase bilayers of PC lipids with an unsaturated cis bond in their acyl chains shows surfaces with a large number of line-type packing defects, in contrast to the much smoother surfaces observed for saturated PC lipids. Di-n:1-PC (n = 20, 22, 24) and (16:0,18:1)-PC (POPC) were used. Next, the influence of an altered lipid environment on the lateral distribution of the single α-helical model peptide WALP23 was studied by incorporating the peptide in the bilayers of di-n:1-PC (n = 20, 22, 24) and (16:0,18:1)-PC unsaturated lipids. The presence of WALP23 leads to an increase in the number of packing defects but does not lead to the formation of the striated domains that were previously observed in bilayers of saturated PC lipids and WALP. This is ascribed to the less efficient lateral lipid packing of the unsaturated lipids, while the increase in packing defects is probably an indirect effect of the peptide. Finally, the fact that an altered lipid packing affects the distribution of WALP23 is also confirmed in an additional experiment where the solvent TFE (2,2,2-trifluorethanol) is added to bilayers of di-16:0-PC/WALP23. At 3.5 vol% TFE, the previous striated ordering of the peptide is abolished and replaced by loose lines.

Abstract
Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) form a unique protein category characterized by the absence of a well-defined structure and by remarkable conformational flexibility. Electron Paramagnetic Resonance (EPR) spectroscopy combined with site-directed spin labeling (SDSL) is amongst the most suitable methods to unravel their structure and dynamics. This review summarizes the tremendous methodological developments in the area of SDSL EPR and its applications in protein research. Recent results on the intrinsically disordered Parkinson's disease protein α-synuclein illustrate that the method has gained increasing attention in IDP research. SDSL EPR has now reached a level where broad application in this rapidly advancing field is feasible.

Abstract
Orientation, dynamics, and packing of transmembrane helical peptides are important determinants of membrane protein structure, dynamics, and function. Because it is difficult to investigate these aspects by studying real membrane proteins, model transmembrane helical peptides are widely used. NMR experiments provide information on both orientation and dynamics of peptides, but they require that motional models be interpreted. Different motional models yield different interpretations of quadrupolar splittings (QS) in terms of helix orientation and dynamics. Here, we use coarse-grained (CG) molecular dynamics (MD) simulations to investigate the behavior of a well-known model transmembrane peptide, WALP23, under different hydrophobic matching/mismatching conditions. We compare experimental (2)H-NMR QS (directly measured in experiments), as well as helix tilt angle and azimuthal rotation (not directly measured), with CG MD simulation results. For QS, the agreement is significantly better than previously obtained with atomistic simulations, indicating that equilibrium sampling is more important than atomistic details for reproducing experimental QS. Calculations of helix orientation confirm that the interpretation of QS depends on the motional model used. Our simulations suggest that WALP23 can form dimers, which are more stable in an antiparallel arrangement. The origin of the preference for the antiparallel orientation lies not only in electrostatic interactions but also in better surface complementarity. In most cases, a mixture of monomers and antiparallel dimers provides better agreement with NMR data compared to the monomer and the parallel dimer. CG MD simulations allow predictions of helix orientation and dynamics and interpretation of QS data without requiring any assumption about the motional model.
