Understanding the formation of β-fibrils over the gold surface is of paramount interest in nano-bio-medicinal Chemistry. The intricate mechanism of self-assembly of neurofibrillogenic peptides and their growth over the gold surface remains elusive, as experiments are limited in unveiling the microscopic dynamic details, in particular, at the early stage of the peptide aggregation. In this work, we carried out equilibrium molecular dynamics and enhanced sampling simulations to elucidate the underlying mechanism of the growth of an amyloid-forming sequence of tau fragments over the gold surface. Our results disclose that the collective intermolecular interactions between the peptide chains and peptides with the gold surface facilitate the peptide adsorption, followed by integration, finally leading to the fibril formation.

了解金表面β纤丝的形成是纳米生物药物化学领域的头等大事。由于实验在揭示微观动态细节方面受到限制,特别是在肽聚集的早期阶段,因此神经纤丝肽的自组装及其在金表面生长的复杂机制仍然难以捉摸。在这项工作中,我们进行了平衡分子动力学和增强采样模拟,以阐明淀粉样形成序列 tau 片段在金表面生长的基本机制。我们的结果表明,肽链和肽与金表面之间的分子间集体相互作用促进了肽的吸附,然后是整合,最后导致纤维的形成。

The misfolding and aggregation of human islet amyloid polypeptide (hIAPP), also known as amylin, have been implicated in the pathogenesis of type 2 diabetes (T2D). Heat shock proteins, specifically, heat shock cognate 70 (Hsc70), are molecular chaperones that protect against hIAPP misfolding and inhibits its aggregation. Nevertheless, there is an incomplete understanding of the mechanistic interactions between Hsc70 domains and hIAPP, thus limiting their potential therapeutic role in diabetes. This study investigates the inhibitory capacities of different Hsc70 variants, aiming to identify the structural determinants that strike a balance between efficacy and cytotoxicity. Our experimental findings demonstrate that the ATPase activity of Hsc70 is not a pivotal factor for inhibiting hIAPP misfolding. We underscore the significance of the C-terminal substrate-binding domain of Hsc70 in inhibiting hIAPP aggregation, emphasizing that the removal of the lid subdomain diminishes the inhibitory effect of Hsc70. Additionally, we employed atomistic discrete molecular dynamics simulations to gain deeper insights into the interaction between Hsc70 variants and hIAPP. Integrating both experimental and computational findings, we propose a mechanism by which Hsc70's interaction with hIAPP monomers disrupts protein-protein connections, primarily by shielding the β-sheet edges of the Hsc70-β-sandwich. The distinctive conformational dynamics of the alpha helices of Hsc70 potentially enhance hIAPP binding by obstructing the exposed edges of the β-sandwich, particularly at the β5-β8 region along the alpha helix interface. This, in turn, inhibits fibril growth, and similar results were observed following hIAPP dimerization. Overall, this study elucidates the structural intricacies of Hsc70 crucial for impeding hIAPP aggregation, improving our understanding of the potential anti-aggregative properties of molecular chaperones in diabetes treatment.

人胰岛淀粉样多肽(hIAPP)又称淀粉样蛋白,其错误折叠和聚集与 2 型糖尿病(T2D)的发病机制有关。热休克蛋白,特别是热休克同源物 70(Hsc70),是防止 hIAPP 错误折叠和抑制其聚集的分子伴侣。然而,人们对 Hsc70 结构域与 hIAPP 之间的机理相互作用的了解并不全面,因此限制了它们在糖尿病治疗中的潜在作用。本研究调查了不同 Hsc70 变体的抑制能力,旨在找出在疗效和细胞毒性之间取得平衡的结构决定因素。我们的实验结果表明,Hsc70 的 ATPase 活性并不是抑制 hIAPP 错折叠的关键因素。我们强调了 Hsc70 的 C 端底物结合域在抑制 hIAPP 聚集中的重要性,并强调去除盖子亚域会降低 Hsc70 的抑制作用。此外,我们还利用原子离散分子动力学模拟来深入了解 Hsc70 变体与 hIAPP 之间的相互作用。综合实验和计算发现,我们提出了一种机制,即 Hsc70 与 hIAPP 单体的相互作用主要通过屏蔽 Hsc70-β 夹层的 β 片边缘来破坏蛋白质与蛋白质之间的连接。Hsc70 α螺旋的独特构象动力学可能会阻碍β三明治暴露的边缘,尤其是在α螺旋界面的β5-β8区域,从而增强 hIAPP 的结合力。这反过来又抑制了纤维的生长,在 hIAPP 二聚化后也观察到了类似的结果。总之,这项研究阐明了 Hsc70 在阻碍 hIAPP 聚集方面的复杂结构,提高了我们对分子伴侣在糖尿病治疗中潜在抗聚集特性的认识。

A novel inhibitor, carboxyphenylboronic acid-modified chitosan oligosaccharide (COS-CPBA), was developed by coupling carboxyphenylboronic acid (CPBA) with chitosan oligosaccharide (COS) to inhibit insulin fibrillation. Extensive biophysical assays indicated that COS-CPBA could decelerate insulin aggregation, hinder the conformational transition from α-helix to β-sheet structure, change the morphology of insulin aggregates and alter fibrillation pathway. A mechanism for the inhibition of insulin fibrillation by COS-CPBA was proposed. It considers that insulin molecules bind to COS-CPBA via hydrophobic interactions, while the positively charged groups in COS-CPBA exert electrostatic repulsion on the bound insulin molecules. These two opposite forces cause the insulin molecules to display extended conformations and hinder the conformational transition of insulin from α-helix to β-sheet structure necessary for fibrillation, thus decelerating aggregation and altering the fibrillation pathway of insulin. The studies provide novel ideas for the development of more effective inhibitors of amyloid fibrillation.

通过将羧基苯硼酸(CPBA)与壳聚糖寡糖(COS)偶联,开发出了一种新型抑制剂--羧基苯硼酸修饰壳聚糖寡糖(COS-CPBA),用于抑制胰岛素纤维化。广泛的生物物理实验表明,COS-CPBA能减缓胰岛素的聚集,阻碍胰岛素从α-螺旋结构向β-片状结构的构象转变,改变胰岛素聚集体的形态,改变胰岛素的纤溶途径。研究人员提出了 COS-CPBA 抑制胰岛素纤维化的机制。它认为胰岛素分子通过疏水作用与 COS-CPBA 结合,而 COS-CPBA 中的正电荷基团对结合的胰岛素分子产生静电排斥力。这两种相反的作用力使胰岛素分子呈现扩展构象,阻碍了胰岛素从α-螺旋结构向纤维化所需的β-片状结构的构象转变,从而减缓了胰岛素的聚集,改变了胰岛素的纤维化途径。这些研究为开发更有效的淀粉样蛋白纤维化抑制剂提供了新思路。

Activation of heterotrimeric G-proteins (Gαβγ) downstream to receptor tyrosine kinases (RTKs) is a well-established crosstalk between the signaling pathways mediated by G-protein coupled receptors (GPCRs) and RTKs. While GPCR serves as a guanine exchange factor (GEF) in the canonical activation of Gα that facilitates the exchange of GDP for GTP, the mechanism through which RTK phosphorylations induce Gα activation remains unclear. Recent experimental studies revealed that the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), a well-known RTK, phosphorylates the helical domain tyrosine residues Y154 and Y155 and accelerates the GDP release from the Gαi3, a subtype of Gα-protein. Using well-tempered metadynamics and extensive unbiased molecular dynamics simulations, we captured the GDP release event and identified the intermediates between bound and unbound states through Markov state models. In addition to weakened salt bridges at the domain interface, phosphorylations induced the unfolding of helix αF, which contributed to increased flexibility near the hinge region, facilitating a greater distance between domains in the phosphorylated Gαi3. Although the larger domain separation in the phosphorylated system provided an unobstructed path for the nucleotide, the accelerated release of GDP was attributed to increased fluctuations in several conserved regions like P-loop, switch 1, and switch 2. Overall, this study provides atomistic insights into the activation of G-proteins induced by RTK phosphorylations and identifies the specific structural motifs involved in the process. The knowledge gained from the study could establish a foundation for targeting non-canonical signaling pathways and developing therapeutic strategies against the ailments associated with dysregulated G-protein signaling.

受体酪氨酸激酶(RTKs)下游的异三聚体 G 蛋白(Gαβγ)的激活是 G 蛋白偶联受体(GPCRs)和 RTKs 介导的信号通路之间一种公认的串扰。GPCR 在 Gα 的典型激活过程中充当鸟嘌呤交换因子(GEF),促进 GDP 与 GTP 的交换,而 RTK 磷酸化诱导 Gα 激活的机制仍不清楚。最近的实验研究发现,表皮生长因子受体(EGFR)是一种著名的 RTK,它能使螺旋结构域酪氨酸残基 Y154 和 Y155 磷酸化,加速 Gα 蛋白亚型 Gαi3 的 GDP 释放。我们利用完善的元动力学和广泛的无偏分子动力学模拟,捕捉了 GDP 释放事件,并通过马尔可夫状态模型确定了结合态和非结合态之间的中间产物。除了减弱结构域界面的盐桥之外,磷酸化还诱导了螺旋 αF 的展开,从而增加了铰链区附近的柔韧性,使磷酸化 Gαi3 的结构域之间的距离更大。虽然磷酸化系统中更大的结构域间距为核苷酸提供了畅通无阻的路径,但 GDP 的加速释放归因于 P 环、开关 1 和开关 2 等几个保守区域波动的增加。总之,这项研究从原子角度揭示了 RTK 磷酸化诱导 G 蛋白活化的过程,并确定了这一过程中涉及的特定结构基团。从这项研究中获得的知识可以为靶向非经典信号通路和开发治疗策略奠定基础,以应对与 G 蛋白信号失调相关的疾病。

Structural analysis of ATP bound to the F1-ATPase β-subunit monomer by solid-state NMR- insight into the hydrolysis mechanism in F1 通过固态核磁共振分析与 F1-ATP 酶 β 亚基单体结合的 ATP 结构--深入了解 F1 的水解机制

ATP-hydrolysis-associated conformational change of the β-subunit during the rotation of F1-ATPase (F1) has been discussed using cryo-electron microscopy (cryo-EM). Since it is worthwhile to further investigate the conformation of ATP at the catalytic subunit through an alternative approach, the structure of ATP bound to the F1β-subunit monomer (β) was analyzed by solid-state NMR. The adenosine conformation of ATP-β was similar to that of ATP analog in F1 crystal structures. 31P chemical shift analysis showed that the Pα and Pβ conformations of ATP-β are gauche-trans and trans-trans, respectively. The triphosphate chain is more extended in ATP-β than in ATP analog in F1 crystals. This appears to be in the state just before ATP hydrolysis. Furthermore, the ATP-β conformation is known to be more closed than the closed form in F1 crystal structures. In view of the cryo-EM results, ATP-β would be a model of the most closed β-subunit with ATP ready for hydrolysis in the hydrolysis stroke of the F1 rotation.

利用低温电子显微镜(cryo-EM)讨论了F1-ATP酶(F1)旋转过程中β亚基与ATP水解相关的构象变化。由于值得通过另一种方法进一步研究 ATP 在催化亚基上的构象,因此采用固态核磁共振分析了与 F1β 亚基单体(β)结合的 ATP 结构。ATP-β 的腺苷构象与 F1 晶体结构中的 ATP 类似物相似。31P 化学位移分析表明,ATP-β 的 Pα 和 Pβ 构象分别为高-反式和反-反式。与 F1 晶体中的 ATP 类似物相比,ATP-β 中的三磷酸链延伸得更长。这似乎是 ATP 水解前的状态。此外,已知 ATP-β 的构象比 F1 晶体结构中的封闭形式更为封闭。鉴于低温电子显微镜的结果,ATP-β 将是最封闭的 β 亚基模型,在 F1 旋转的水解行程中,ATP 已准备好进行水解。

Emodin is a natural anthraquinone derivative found in nature, widely known as an herbal medicine. Here, the partition, location, and interaction of emodin with lipid membranes of 1,2-dimyristoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine (DMPC) are experimentally investigated with different techniques. Our studies have considered the neutral form of emodin (EMH) and its anionic/deprotonated form (EM), and their interaction with a more and less packed lipid membrane, DMPC at the gel and fluid phases, respectively. Though DSC results indicate that the two species, EMH and EM, similarly disrupt the packing of DMPC bilayers, spin labels clearly show that EMH causes a stronger bilayer disruption, both in gel and fluid DMPC. Fluorescence spectroscopy shows that both EMH and EM have a high affinity for DMPC: the binding of EM to both gel and fluid DMPC bilayers was found to be quite similar, and similar to that of EMH to gel DMPC, Kp = (1.4 ± 0.3)x103. However, EMH was found to bind twice more strongly to fluid DMPC bilayers, Kp = (3.2 ± 0.3)x103. Spin labels and optical absorption spectroscopy indicate that emodin is located close to the lipid bilayer surface, and suggest that EM is closer to the lipid/water interface than EMH, as expected. The present studies present a relevant contribution to the current understanding of the effect the two species of emodin, EMH and EM, present on different microregions of an organism, as local pH values can vary significantly, can cause in a neutral lipid membrane, either more or less packed, liked gel and fluid DMPC, respectively, and could be extended to lipid domains of biological membranes.

大黄素是一种存在于自然界的天然蒽醌衍生物,作为一种中药材广为人知。在此,我们采用不同的技术对大黄素与 1,2-二肉豆蔻酰-sn-甘油-3-磷酸胆碱(DMPC)脂膜的分隔、位置和相互作用进行了实验研究。我们的研究考虑了大黄素的中性形式(EMH)及其阴离子/去质子化形式(EM-),以及它们分别在凝胶相和流体相与密度较高和较低的脂膜 DMPC 的相互作用。尽管 DSC 结果表明,EMH 和 EM- 这两种物质同样会破坏 DMPC 双层的堆积,但自旋标签清楚地表明,EMH 在凝胶和流体 DMPC 中都会造成更强的双层破坏。 荧光光谱显示,EMH 和 EM- 对 DMPC 都有很高的亲和力:发现 EM- 与凝胶和流体 DMPC 双层的结合非常相似,与 EMH 与凝胶 DMPC 的结合相似,Kp = (1.4 ± 0.3)x103 。然而,EMH 与流体 DMPC 双层膜的结合力要强两倍,Kp = (3.2 ± 0.3)x103。自旋标签和光学吸收光谱表明,大黄素位于脂质双分子层表面附近,并表明 EM- 比 EMH 更接近脂质/水界面,正如预期的那样。由于局部 pH 值会发生显著变化,本研究为目前了解 EMH 和 EM- 这两种大黄素对生物体不同微区的影响做出了相关贡献,它们会在中性脂膜上造成或多或少的包装,分别像凝胶和流体 DMPC,并可扩展到生物膜的脂质域。

Nanodisc technology is increasingly being used in structural, biochemical and biophysical studies of membrane proteins. The computational approaches have revealed many important features of nanodisc assembly, structures and dynamics. Therefore, we reviewed the application of computational approaches, especially molecular modeling and molecular dyncamics (MD) simulations, to characterize nanodiscs, including the structural models, assembly and disassembly, protocols for modeling, structural properties and dynamics, and protein-lipid interactions in nanodiscs. More amazing computational studies about nanodiscs are looked forward to in the future.

The aggregation of transactive response deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) binding protein of 43 kDa (TDP-43) into ubiquitin-positive inclusions is closely associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), frontotemporal lobar degeneration, and chronic traumatic encephalopathy. The 370–375 fragment of TDP-43 (370GNNSYS375, TDP-43370-375), the amyloidogenic hexapeptides, can be prone to forming pathogenic amyloid fibrils with the characteristic of steric zippers. Previous experiments reported the ALS-associated mutation, serine 375 substituted by glycine (S375G) is linked to early onset disease and protein aggregation of TDP-43. Based on this, it is necessary to explore the underlying molecular mechanisms. By utilizing all-atom molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of 102 μs in total, we investigated the impact of S375G mutation on the conformational ensembles and oligomerization dynamics of TDP-43370-375 peptides. Our replica exchange MD simulations show that S375G mutation could promote the unstructured conformation formation and induce peptides to form a loose packed oligomer, thus inhibiting the aggregation of TDP-43370-375. Further analyses suggest that S375G mutation displays a reduction effect on the number of total hydrogen bonds and contacts among TDP-43370-375 peptides. Hydrogen bonding and polar interactions among TDP-43370-375 peptides, as well as Y374-Y374 π-π stacking interaction, are attenuated by S375G mutation. Additional microsecond MD simulations demonstrate that S375G mutation could prohibit the conformational conversion to β-structure-rich aggregates and possess an inhibitory effect on the oligomerization dynamics of TDP-43370-375. This study offers for the first time of molecular insights into the S375G mutation affecting the aggregation of TDP-43370-375 at the atomic level, and may open new avenues in the development of future site-specific mutation therapeutics.

转录反应脱氧核糖核酸(DNA)结合蛋白 43 kDa(TDP-43)聚集成泛素阳性包涵体与肌萎缩侧索硬化症(ALS)、额颞叶变性和慢性创伤性脑病密切相关。TDP-43的370-375片段(370GNNSYS375,TDP-43370-375)是致淀粉样蛋白的六肽,容易形成具有立体拉链特征的致病性淀粉样纤维。之前的实验报告显示,ALS 相关突变(丝氨酸 375 被甘氨酸取代(S375G))与 TDP-43 的早发疾病和蛋白聚集有关。在此基础上,有必要探索其潜在的分子机制。通过总计 102 μs 的全原子分子动力学(MD)模拟,我们研究了 S375G 突变对 TDP-43370-375 多肽构象组合和寡聚动力学的影响。我们的复制交换 MD 模拟结果表明,S375G 突变能促进非结构化构象的形成,诱导多肽形成松散的低聚物,从而抑制 TDP-43370-375 的聚集。进一步分析表明,S375G 突变对 TDP-43370-375 肽间的氢键和接触总数有减少作用。S375G 突变削弱了 TDP-43370-375 肽间的氢键和极性相互作用以及 Y374-Y374 π-π 堆积相互作用。其他微秒级 MD 模拟证明,S375G 突变可阻止构象转化为富含 β 结构的聚集体,并对 TDP-43370-375 的低聚物动力学产生抑制作用。这项研究首次在原子水平上揭示了影响 TDP-43370-375 聚集的 S375G 突变的分子机制,为未来开发特定位点突变疗法开辟了新途径。
