Protein Substrate Binding Induces Conformational Changes in the Chaperonin GroEL

Chaperonins are molecules that assist proteins during folding and protect them from irreversible aggregation. We studied the chaperonin GroEL and its interaction with the enzyme human carbonic anhydrase II (HCA II), which induces unfolding of the enzyme. We focused on conformational changes that occur in GroEL during formation of the GroEL-HCA II complex. We measured the rate of GroEL cysteine ...

Sugar binding and protein conformational changes in lactose permease.

Lactose permease is an integral membrane protein that uses the cell membrane's proton gradient for import of lactose. Based on extensive biochemical data and a substrate-bound crystal structure, intermediates involved in lactose/H(+) co-transport have been suggested. Yet, the transport mechanism, especially the coupling of protonation states of essential residues and protein conformational chan...

Structure fluctuations and conformational Changes in protein binding

Structure fluctuations and conformational changes accompany all biological processes involving macromolecules. The paper presents a classification of protein residues based on the normalized equilibrium fluctuations of the residue centers of mass in proteins and a statistical analysis of conformation changes in the side-chains upon binding. Normal mode analysis and an elastic network model were...

Kinetics of conformational changes in Nereis sarcoplasmic calcium-binding protein upon binding of divalent ions.

The sarcoplasmic calcium-binding protein (SCP) of the sandworm Nereis possesses three Ca2(+)-Mg2+ sites but no Ca2(+)-specific site. Binding of Mg2+, but not of Ca2+, displays a marked positive cooperativity. The apparent cooperativity of Ca2+ binding in the presence of Mg2+ results from the allostery in Mg2+ dissociation. Binding of the first Ca2+ or Mg2+ induces all the conformational change,...

Conformational changes associated with protein-protein interactions.

Motions related to protein-protein binding events can be surveyed from the perspective of the Database of Macromolecular Movements. There are a number of alternative conceptual models that describe these events, particularly induced fit and pre-existing equilibrium. There is evidence for both alternatives from recent studies of conformational change. However, there is increasing support for the...
