Outward-facing conformers of LacY stabilized by nanobodies.
The lactose permease of Escherichia coli (LacY), a highly dynamic polytopic membrane protein, catalyzes stoichiometric galactoside/H(+) symport by an alternating access mechanism and exhibits multiple conformations, the distribution of which is altered by sugar binding. We have developed single-domain camelid nanobodies (Nbs) against a LacY mutant in an outward (periplasmic)-open conformation t...
متن کاملSugar binding induces an outward facing conformation of LacY.
According to x-ray structure, the lactose permease (LacY) is a monomer organized into N- and C-terminal six-helix bundles that form a deep internal cavity open on the cytoplasmic side with a single sugar-binding site at the apex. The periplasmic side of the molecule is closed. During sugar/H(+) symport, a cavity facing the periplasmic side is thought to open with closure of the inward-facing cy...
متن کاملCorrection for Smirnova et al., Transient conformers of LacY are trapped by nanobodies.
The lactose permease of Escherichia coli (LacY), a highly dynamic membrane protein, catalyzes symport of a galactopyranoside and an H(+) by using an alternating access mechanism, and the transport cycle involves multiple conformational states. Single-domain camelid nanobodies (Nbs) developed against a LacY mutant immobilized in an outward (periplasmic)-open conformation bind to the flexible WT ...
متن کاملTrp replacements for tightly interacting Gly-Gly pairs in LacY stabilize an outward-facing conformation.
Trp replacements for conserved Gly-Gly pairs between the N- and C-terminal six-helix bundles on the periplasmic side of lactose permease (LacY) cause complete loss of transport activity with little or no effect on sugar binding. Moreover, the detergent-solubilized mutants exhibit much greater thermal stability than WT LacY. A Cys replacement for Asn245, which is inaccessible/unreactive in WT La...
متن کاملCyclochiral conformers of resorcin[4]arenes stabilized by hydrogen bonds.
Cyclochiral resorcinarenes, that maintain their cyclochirality by means of hydrogen bonds, were synthesized by a sequence of reactions involving the Mannich reaction, removal of the N,O-acetal bridge and subsequent N-substitution with an RCO group. During this study it was found that ethyl nitroacetate is a mild and very efficient agent for N,O-acetal bridge removal. The resulting resorcinarene...
