Voeten RLC, Majeed HA, Bos TS, Somsen GW, Haselberg R. Investigating direct current potentials that affect native protein conformation during trapped ion mobility spectrometry-mass spectrometry. JOURNAL OF MASS SPECTROMETRY : JMS 2024; 59:e5021. [PMID: 38605451 DOI: 10.1002/jms.5021] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/07/2023] [Revised: 10/13/2023] [Accepted: 03/06/2024] [Indexed: 04/13/2024]
Abstract
Trapped ion mobility spectrometry-time-of-flight mass spectrometry (TIMS-TOFMS) has emerged as a tool to study protein conformational states. In TIMS, gas-phase ions are guided across the IM stages by applying direct current (DC) potentials (D1-6), which, however, might induce changes in protein structures through collisional activation. To define conditions for native protein analysis, we evaluated the influence of these DC potentials using the metalloenzyme bovine carbonic anhydrase (BCA) as primary test compound. The variation of DC potentials did not change BCA-ion charge and heme content but affected (relative) charge-state intensities and adduct retention. Constructed extracted-ion mobilograms and corresponding collisional cross-section (CCS) profiles gave useful insights in (alterations of) protein conformational state. For BCA, the D3 and D6 potential (which are applied between the deflection transfer and funnel 1 [F1] and the accumulation exit and the start of the ramp, respectively) had most profound effects, showing multimodal CCS distributions at higher potentials indicating gradual unfolding. The other DC potentials only marginally altered the CCS profiles of BCA. To allow for more general conclusions, five additional proteins of diverse molecular weight and conformational stability were analyzed, and for the main protein charge states, CCS profiles were constructed. Principal component analysis (PCA) of the obtained data showed that D1 and D3 exhibit the highest degree of correlation with the ratio of folded and unfolded protein (F/U) as extracted from the mobilograms obtained per set D potential. The correlation of D6 with F/U and protein charge were similar, and D2, D4, and D5 showed an inverse correlation with F/U but were correlated with protein charge. Although DC boundary values for induced conformational changes appeared protein dependent, a set of DC values could be determined, which assured native analysis of most proteins.

Cascade reactions with two non-physiological partners for NAD(P)H regeneration via renewable hydrogen. Biotechnol J 2024; 19:e2300567. [PMID: 38581100 DOI: 10.1002/biot.202300567] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/20/2023] [Revised: 03/14/2024] [Accepted: 03/15/2024] [Indexed: 04/08/2024]
Abstract
An attractive application of hydrogenases, combined with the availability of cheap and renewable hydrogen (i.e., from solar and wind powered electrolysis or from recycled wastes), is the production of high-value electron-rich intermediates such as reduced nicotinamide adenine dinucleotides. Here, the capability of a very robust and oxygen-resilient [FeFe]-hydrogenase (CbA5H) from Clostridium beijerinckii SM10, previously identified in our group, combined with a reductase (BMR) from Bacillus megaterium (now reclassified as Priestia megaterium) was tested. The system shows a good stability and it was demonstrated to reach up to 28 ± 2 nmol NADPH regenerated s-1 mg of hydrogenase-1 (i.e., 1.68 ± 0.12 U mg-1, TOF: 126 ± 9 min-1) and 0.46 ± 0.04 nmol NADH regenerated s-1 mg of hydrogenase-1 (i.e., 0.028 ± 0.002 U mg-1, TOF: 2.1 ± 0.2 min-1), meaning up to 74 mg of NADPH and 1.23 mg of NADH produced per hour by a system involving 1 mg of CbA5H. The TOF is comparable with similar systems based on hydrogen as regenerating molecule for NADPH, but the system is first of its kind as for the [FeFe]-hydrogenase and the non-physiological partners used. As a proof of concept a cascade reaction involving CbA5H, BMR and a mutant BVMO from Acinetobacter radioresistens able to oxidize indole is presented. The data show how the cascade can be exploited for indigo production and multiple reaction cycles can be sustained using the regenerated NADPH.

Abstract
Niclosamide has been proposed as a possible candidate for a Covid-19 drug. However, the metabolites of niclosamide are difficult to investigate because they are usually not available commercially or they are quite expensive in the commercial market. In this study, the major metabolite of niclosamide in human liver microsomes (HLMs) was confirmed to be 3-OH niclosamide. Because the production of 3-OH niclosamide using HLMs has a slow turnover rate, a new method of producing niclosamide metabolite with an easier and highly cost-efficient method was thus conducted. Bacterial CYP102A1 (BM3) is one of the bacterial cytochrome P450s (CYPs) from Bacillus megaterium that structurally show similar activities to human CYPs. Here, the BM3 mutants were used to produce niclosamide metabolites and the metabolites were analyzed using high-performance liquid chromatography and LC-mass spectrometry. Among a set of mutants tested here, BM3 M14 mutant was the most active in producing 3-OH niclosamide, the major metabolite of niclosamide. Comparing BM3 M14 and HLMs, BM3 M14 production of 3-OH niclosamide was 34-fold higher than that of HLMs. Hence, the engineering of BM3 can be a cost-efficient method to produce 3-OH niclosamide.

Abstract
Covalent crosslinking and mass spectrometry techniques hold great potential in the study of multiprotein complexes, but a major challenge is the inability to differentiate intra- and inter- protein crosslinks in homomeric complexes. In the current study we use CYP102A1, a well-characterized homodimeric P450, to examine a subtractive method that utilizes limited crosslinking with disuccinimidyl dibutyric urea (DSBU) and isolation of the monomer, in addition to the crosslinked dimer, to identify inter-monomer crosslinks. The utility of this approach was examined with the use of MS-cleavable crosslinker DSBU and recently published cryo-EM based structures of the CYP102A1 homodimer. Of the 31 unique crosslinks found, 26 could be fit to the reported structures whereas 5 exceeded the spatial constraints. Not only did these crosslinks validate the cryo-EM structure, they point to new conformations of CYP102A1 that bring the flavins in closer proximity to the heme.

Abstract
Members of class VII cytochromes P450 are catalytically self-sufficient enzymes containing a phthalate dioxygenase reductase-like domain fused to the P450 catalytic domain. Among these, CYP116B46 is the first enzyme for which the 3D structure of the whole polypeptide chain has been solved, shedding light on the interaction between its domains, which is crucial for catalysis. Most of these enzymes have been isolated from extremophiles or detoxifying bacteria that can carry out regio- and enantioselective oxidation of compounds of biotechnological interest. Protein engineering has generated mutants that can perform challenging organic reactions such as the anti-Markovnikov alkene oxidation. This potential, combined with the detailed 3D structure, forms the basis for further directed evolution studies aimed at widening their biotechnological exploitation.

Abstract
Staphylococcus aureus sortase A (SaSrtA) is widely used for site-specific protein modifications, but it lacks the robustness for performing bioconjugation reactions at elevated temperatures or in presence of denaturing agents. Loop engineering and subsequent head-to-tail backbone cyclization of SaSrtA yielded the cyclized variant CyM6 that has a 7.5 °C increased melting temperature and up to 4.6-fold increased resistance towards denaturants when compared to the parent rM4. CyM6 gained up to 2.6-fold (vs. parent rM4) yield of conjugate in ligation of peptide and primary amine under denaturing conditions.
