NMR Spectroscopy Approach to Study the Structure, Orientation, and Mechanism of the Multidrug Exporter EmrE.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Multidrug exporters are a class of membrane proteins that remove antibiotics from the cytoplasm of bacteria and in the process confer multidrug resistance to the organism. This chapter outlines the sample preparation and optimization of oriented solid-state NMR experiments applied to the study of structure and dynamics for the model transporter EmrE from the small multidrug resistance (SMR) family.

Exploring Transporters within the Small Multidrug Resistance Family Using Solid-State NMR Spectroscopy
Small multidrug resistance (SMR) proteins comprise a family of bacterial secondary active transporters that confer drug resistance to antiseptics and antibiotics. EmrE has emerged as the model protein of the SMR family and an archetype to understand the ion-coupled transport mechanism. The importance of EmrE is further underscored by its proposed role as an evolutionary predecessor to larger tr...
متن کاملNMR and fluorescence spectroscopy approaches to secondary and primary active multidrug efflux pumps.
Multidrug efflux pumps are found in all major transporter families. Along with a lack of three-dimensional structure information, the mechanism of drug recognition, energy coupling with drug translocation and the catalytic cycle are so far not understood. In the present study, we present first data of a fluorescence-based assay to study the pH-gradient-mediated activity of the multidrug antipor...
متن کاملMetabolomics-Based Study of Logarithmic and Stationary Phases of Promastigotes in Leishmania major by 1H NMR Spectroscopy
Background: Cutaneous leishmaniasis is one of the most important parasitic diseases in humans. In this disease, one of the responsible organisms is Leishmania major, which is transmitted by sandfly vector. There are specific differences in biochemical profiles and metabolite pathways in logarithmic and stationary phases of Leishmania parasites. In the present study, 1H NMR spectroscopy was used...
متن کاملCombination of ¹⁵N reverse labeling and afterglow spectroscopy for assigning membrane protein spectra by magic-angle-spinning solid-state NMR: application to the multidrug resistance protein EmrE.
Magic-angle-spinning (MAS) solid-state NMR spectroscopy has emerged as a viable method to characterize membrane protein structure and dynamics. Nevertheless, the spectral resolution for uniformly labeled samples is often compromised by redundancy of the primary sequence and the presence of helical secondary structure that results in substantial resonance overlap. The ability to simplify the spe...
متن کاملLigand-induced conformational changes of the multidrug resistance transporter EmrE probed by oriented solid-state NMR spectroscopy.
Multidrug resistance (MDR) is a major public health problem that reduces the efficacy of antibiotics in the treatment of infections. One of the most commonmechanisms in bacteria for conferring MDR is the coupling of drug efflux with the proton motive force. A prototype for studying ion-coupled active transport is the polytopic E. coli membrane protein EmrE, a member of the small multidrug resis...
