- W2060872711 abstract "Detailed knowledge of the rates, equilibria, and mechanism of biochemical reactions has traditionally been acquired through experiments conducted on solutions containing low concentrations (less than about 1 mg/ml) of total protein, nucleic acid, and/or polysaccharide together with buffer salts, low molecular weight substrates, and cofactors as required. In contrast, biochemical reactions in living systems take place in media containing substantially greater total concentrations (50–400 mg/ml) of macromolecules that may be present in solution and/or in indefinitely large arrays (e.g. cytoskeletal fibers) (1Fulton A.B. Cell. 1982; 30: 345-347Abstract Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (618) Google Scholar, 2Zimmerman S.B. Trach S.O. J. Mol. Biol. 1991; 222: 599-620Crossref PubMed Scopus (899) Google Scholar). Because no single macromolecular species may be present at high concentration, but all species taken together occupy a significant fraction of the volume of the medium, such media are referred to as “crowded” (3Minton A.P. Wilf J. Biochemistry. 1981; 20: 4821-4826Crossref PubMed Scopus (241) Google Scholar) and/or “confining” (4Minton A.P. Biophys. J. 1992; 63: 1090-1100Abstract Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (158) Google Scholar) rather than “concentrated,” depending upon whether the macrosolutes are soluble and/or structured. Fig.1 provides a schematic illustration of crowding and confinement in eukaryotic cytoplasm. In such media, nonspecific interactions between macrosolutes contribute significantly to the total free energy of the medium. High concentrations of “background” macromolecules that do not participate directly in a particular test reaction have been observed to induce order-of-magnitude or greater changes in the rates and equilibria of numerous test reactions (see below). To properly assess the physiological role of a particular reaction or set of reactions characterized in vitro, it is important to consider the possible influence of crowding and/or confinement upon the reaction in its physiological milieu. A nonspecific interaction between a pair of macromolecules does not depend strongly upon details of the primary, secondary, or tertiary structure(s) of the interacting macromolecules but rather upon global properties such as net charge, dipole or multipole moment, the polarity of surface residues, and macromolecular “shape.” Nonspecific interactions may be either repulsive (steric, electrostatic) or attractive (electrostatic, hydrophobic) and are generally substantially weaker on a pairwise basis than specific interactions between reaction partners. The concept of “nonspecific interaction” is widely misunderstood. Many if not most biomedical researchers still regard such interaction as an artifact of a particular experimental system that interferes with the acquisition of meaningful data. Strategies such as extrapolation of results to zero macromolecular concentration are devised for the reduction or elimination of the influence of nonspecific interaction on a test reaction. Although such procedures may be appropriate in certain specific experimental situations, they do not necessarily provide results that are more meaningful in a biological context. On the contrary, significant nonspecific interaction is an unavoidable consequence of crowding and confinement in most or all physiological fluid media. To understand molecular processes in such media one must therefore take account of nonspecific interactions rather than attempt to eliminate them. The contribution of a particular solute species X to the total free energy of the system is a function of an effective concentration, called the thermodynamic activity of X, denoted byax. Thermodynamics teaches that equilibrium constants are generally expressed in terms of equilibrium activities rather than actual concentrations. As a simple example, consider a protein molecule that may reversibly self-associate to form a dimer. The equilibrium association constant for this reaction is K120=(a2/a12), where subscripts 1 and 2 refer to monomer and dimer, respectively. Biochemists are accustomed to seeing equilibrium constants written as ratios of equilibrium concentrations. However, the so-called equilibrium constant written in terms of concentrations,K12, is actually an apparent constant related to the true equilibrium constant, K120 , by K12≡(c2/c2)=K120()(γ12/γ2) γ2), where γi denotes the ratio of effective to actual concentrations of species i, termed the activity coefficient. The activity coefficient has a precise definition in terms of nonspecific solute-solute interaction, lnγi = <gi>/kT, where <gi> denotes the (composition-dependent) equilibrium average free energy of nonspecific interaction between a molecule of species i and all of the other macrosolutes present in the medium, k is the Boltzmann constant, and T is the absolute temperature. Steric repulsion is the most fundamental of all interactions between macromolecules in solution and is always present at finite concentration, independent of the magnitude of additional electrostatic or hydrophobic interactions. Because solute molecules are mutually impenetrable, the presence of a significant volume fraction of macromolecules in the medium places constraints on the placement of an additional molecule of test macrosolute that depend upon the relative sizes, shapes, and concentrations of all macrosolutes in the medium. Fig. 2 depicts a region, demarcated by a square outline, in a solution containing spherical “background” macrosolutes of radius rb, colored black, that occupy ∼30% of the total volume (vtot) of the specified region. The available volume (va,T) is defined to be that part of the volume of the region which may be occupied by the center of massof a molecule of a spherical test species T of radius rt added to the solution. If the test species is very small relative to the background species (Fig. 2 A), then the available volume, indicated inblue, is approximately equal to that part of the total volume not occupied by the background species, i.e. ∼0.7vtot. However, if the size of the test species is comparable with (or larger than) the background species (Fig.2 B), the available volume is substantially smaller, as the center of a molecule of the test species can approach the center of any background molecule to no less than the distance, denoted byrC, at which the surfaces of the two molecules contact each other. 1For markedly non-spherical molecules,rC is a function of the mutual orientations of test and background molecules. For approximately spherical molecules,rC may be treated as a constant equal to the sum of the average radii of test and background molecules. One may visualize this restriction by drawing a circular shell with radiusrC about each background molecule. Then the volume available to the test species, indicated by the blue-colored regions in Fig. 2 B, is that part of the total volume which is not occupied by any background molecule or by any shell. It is evident upon inspection of Fig. 2, A andB, that the available volume is a sensitive function of the relative sizes (and shapes) of test and background molecules and the number density of background molecules. 2Although Fig. 2, A and B,reflects a static distribution of background molecules, these conclusions hold also for a dynamic distribution, assuming equivalence of spatial and time averages. Volume may be excluded to a test particle by the surfaces of immobile structures as well as by individual background macrosolutes (4Minton A.P. Biophys. J. 1992; 63: 1090-1100Abstract Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (158) Google Scholar, 5Giddings J.C. Kucera E. Russell C.P. Myers M.N. J. Phys. Chem. 1968; 72: 4397-4408Crossref Scopus (439) Google Scholar), as illustrated in Fig. 3, which depicts a pore with square cross-section. 3This pore is one possible idealized representation of a small element of volume bounded by large macromolecular assemblies, such as interstices within a lattice of rodlike fibers or lamellar space between adjacent membrane surfaces. The center of a spherical test molecule whose diameter is comparable with the largest dimension of the pore (Fig. 3 B) is excluded from thepink-colored region, which in this instance represents a significant fraction of the total volume of the solution enclosed in the pore. In a solution of macromolecules interacting exclusively via steric repulsion there exists an extremely simple relationship between the effective and actual concentration of each solute species (6Lebowitz J.L. Helfand E. Praestgaard E. J. Chem. Phys. 1965; 43: 774-779Crossref Scopus (496) Google Scholar), γi ≡ (ai/ci) = (νtot/νa,i), where νtot and νa,i denote the total volume and volume available to speciesi, respectively. The thermodynamic activities of macromolecules in fluid media may be measured by several physical-chemical methods. In Fig. 4, the experimentally measured ratio of the effective to actual concentration of hemoglobin, under experimental conditions comparable with those encountered in a red blood cell, is plotted as a function of the actual concentration. The first remarkable feature of this dependence is its highly non-linear nature; the effective concentration of hemoglobin exceeds the actual concentration by a factor of >10 at 200 g/liter and a factor approaching 100 at 300 g/liter. (For reference, the concentration of hemoglobin within a normal red blood cell typically exceeds 300 g/liter.) The second remarkable feature is that the experimentally measured dependence may be accounted for quantitatively over the entire concentration range by a simple geometrical model for available volume, in which each hemoglobin molecule is represented by a rigid spherical particle of radius ∼29.5 Å, i.e. a particle closely resembling a “shrink-wrapped” hemoglobin molecule (7Ross P.D. Minton A.P. J. Mol. Biol. 1977; 112: 437-452Crossref PubMed Scopus (211) Google Scholar, 8Guttman H.J. Anderson C.F. Record Jr., T.M. Biophys. J. 1995; 68: 835-846Abstract Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (25) Google Scholar). The ratio of effective to actual concentration (i.e.activity coefficient) of a protein within a polymer gel may be calculated from the extent to which the protein partitions between the gel and bulk solution (4Minton A.P. Biophys. J. 1992; 63: 1090-1100Abstract Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (158) Google Scholar, 5Giddings J.C. Kucera E. Russell C.P. Myers M.N. J. Phys. Chem. 1968; 72: 4397-4408Crossref Scopus (439) Google Scholar). In Fig. 5, this ratio, measured experimentally in a dextran gel occupying about 3% of total solution volume, is plotted for a variety of globular proteins as a function of molar mass. We note that the dependence of activity coefficient upon molar mass is reasonably independent of the identity of the protein, indicating that it is a property primarily of protein size and is insensitive to small changes in shape or composition. The solid curve was calculated using a simple geometrical model for available volume (9Ogston A.G. J. Phys. Chem. 1970; 74: 668-669Crossref Scopus (56) Google Scholar), in which each protein is modeled as a hard spherical particle with a radius proportional to the cube root of mass, and polymer is modeled as a random matrix of hard cylindrical rods. We present a simple example of how the difference between activity and concentration in a crowded medium may qualitatively influence association equilibria. 4A more complete treatment is presented in Ref.10Minton A.P. Biopolymers. 1981; 20: 2093-2120Crossref Scopus (468) Google Scholar. Consider the dimerization reaction introduced above, with real and apparent equilibrium constants defined in the first two equations. For the sake of illustration, we set the molar mass of A equal to 100,000 and assume that both A andA2 have roughly spherical shape. 5Although the dimer is unlikely to be spherical, its deviation from sphericity will not be so large that treatment as an approximate sphere will introduce a qualitative error into the present estimate (10Minton A.P. Biopolymers. 1981; 20: 2093-2120Crossref Scopus (468) Google Scholar). Using the same geometrical model for excluded volume and the same size and shape parameters used to fit the data in Fig. 5 (9Ogston A.G. J. Phys. Chem. 1970; 74: 668-669Crossref Scopus (56) Google Scholar), the values of γ1 and γ2 may be estimated to be about 3 × 102 and 1 × 104, respectively, for a fractional volume occupancy φ of 0.2, and about 1 × 104 and 1 × 106, respectively, for φ = 0.3. It follows from the second equation that the experimentally observed equilibrium constant,K12, would be expected to exceed K12o (the value ofK12 in the limit of high dilution) by a factor of ∼10 in a medium of φ = 0.2 and ∼100 in a medium of φ = 0.3. Although this estimate is only qualitative, the large magnitude of the predicted effect of excluded volume transcends the crudeness of the theoretical model. Indeed, similar but somewhat more refined predictions have been confirmed, in some cases quantitatively, by experimental observation (see references in Ref. 11Zimmerman S.B. Minton A.P. Annu. Rev.

Struct. 1993; 22: 27-65Crossref PubMed Scopus (1244) Google Scholar). There are two opposing effects of excluded volume on reaction rates (12Minton A.P. Methods Enzymol. 1998; 295: 127-149Crossref PubMed Scopus (276) Google Scholar). If the overall rate of the reaction is limited by the rate with which a transition state complex decays to products, then crowding would be expected to enhance the relative abundance of the transition state complex and hence the forward reaction rate. Under these conditions, the forward rate constant may be increased by up to the equilibrium enhancement factor, depending upon details of the particular reaction. However, if the overall rate of the reaction is limited by the rate with which reactant molecules encounter each other through diffusional motion, then crowding, which retards diffusional motion (13Ogston A.G. Preston B.N. Wells J.D. Proc. R. Soc. Lond. A. 1973; 353: 297-316Google Scholar, 14Muramatsu N. Minton A.P. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 1988; 85: 2984-2988Crossref PubMed Scopus (137) Google Scholar), would be expected to lower the forward reaction rate. In the limit of high fractional volume occupancy, all association reactions are expected to be diffusion limited and hence slowed by crowding (11Zimmerman S.B. Minton A.P. Annu. Rev. Biophys. Biomol. Struct. 1993; 22: 27-65Crossref PubMed Scopus (1244) Google Scholar). Hence, depending upon the nature of a particular reaction, one of two types of behavior may be observed as the fractional volume occupancy of background molecules increases: the forward rate for a macromolecular association may decrease monotonically or may initially increase, pass through a maximum, and then decrease. A bimodal dependence of reaction rate on crowder concentration has been observed experimentally (15Harrison B. Zimmerman S.B. Nucleic Acids Res. 1986; 14: 1863-1870Crossref PubMed Scopus (24) Google Scholar). Macromolecular crowding and/or confinement by background molecules or structures can in principle affect the equilibrium and kinetics of any macromolecular reaction in which there exists a significant difference between the volume excluded to reactants and the volume excluded to products. Such reactions include self- or heteroassociation, condensation (crystallization, nucleation-controlled fiber formation), binding of macromolecules to specific surface sites, nonspecific surface adsorption, and protein isomerization, including folding/unfolding (4Minton A.P. Biophys. J. 1992; 63: 1090-1100Abstract Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (158) Google Scholar, 10Minton A.P. Biopolymers. 1981; 20: 2093-2120Crossref Scopus (468) Google Scholar, 11Zimmerman S.B.

J. 2000; 78: 101-109Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (186) Google Scholar). Crowding may also affect enzyme-catalyzed reactions of small molecules if the mechanism of catalysis involves significant conformational change of the enzyme (3Minton A.P. Wilf J. Biochemistry. 1981; 20: 4821-4826Crossref PubMed Scopus (241) Google Scholar,10Minton A.P. Biopolymers. 1981; 20: 2093-2120Crossref Scopus (468) Google Scholar). Many such effects have indeed been observed experimentally. Most of the older observations are cited in Ref. 11Zimmerman S.B. Minton A.P. Annu. Rev. Biophys. Biomol. Struct. 1993; 22: 27-65Crossref PubMed Scopus (1244) Google Scholar, and some more recent observations are listed in Table I. In recent years increased attention has been paid to the functioning of ever larger macromolecular assemblies and systems of interacting components, sometimes referred to as molecular machines (19Alberts B. Cell. 1998; 92: 291-294Abstract Full Text Full Text PDF PubMed Scopus (981) Google Scholar). As larger and more complex systems have come under closer scrutiny, a growing number of biomedical researchers have emphasized the extremely broad ramifications of macromolecular crowding and confinement for biochemistry in the intact cell (see for example Refs.20Garner M.M. Burg M.B. Am. J. Physiol. 1994; 266: C877-C892Crossref PubMed Google Scholar, 21Zimmerman S.B. Murphy L.D. FEBS Lett. 1996; 390: 245-248Crossref PubMed Scopus (114) Google Scholar, 22Martin J. Hartl F.-U. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. U. S. A. 1997; 94: 1107-1112Crossref PubMed Scopus (100) Google Scholar, 23Kornberg A. J. Bacteriol. 2000; 182: 3613-3618Crossref PubMed Scopus (77) Google Scholar, 24van den Berg B. Wain R. Dobson C.M. Ellis R.J. EMBO J. 2000; 19: 3870-3875Crossref PubMed Scopus (225) Google Scholar, 25Ellis R.J. Curr. Opin. Struct. Biol. 2001; 11: 114-119Crossref PubMed Scopus (840) Google Scholar). It is becoming more widely appreciated that under physiological conditions of crowding or confinement, the size- and shape-dependent reduction of volume available to every species of macromolecule results in major shifts in the rates and equilibria of a broad range of macromolecular reactions relative to those measured in dilute solution. We now recognize that nonspecific interactions, including (but not limited to) steric repulsion, provide a substantial contribution to the free energy balance of a physiological system such as an intact cell or tissue. It seems likely that the constituent elements of these systems have evolved to function optimally under normal physiological (i.e. crowded and/or confined) conditions and that the proper functioning of the system depends upon maintenance of the free energy balance established under those crowded and/or confined conditions. Excluded volume theory predicts that at the high level of macromolecular fractional volume occupancy characteristic of all living cells (i.e. >0.20–0.30), the reactivity of almost every soluble macromolecular species, dilute as well as concentrated, will depend sensitively upon its available volume, which, in turn, depends sensitively upon the total volume fraction of macromolecules. It follows that relatively small changes in the fractional volume occupancy of the cellular interior are expected to have major effects on the equilibria and kinetics of a broad variety of intracellular reactions (26Minton A.P. Strange K. Cellular and Molecular Physiology of Cell Volume Regulation. CRC Press, Inc., Boca Raton, FL1994: 181-190Google Scholar, 27Minton A.P. Curr. Opin. Struct. Biol. 2000; 10: 34-39Crossref PubMed Scopus (542) Google Scholar). These considerations help us to understand two very general properties of living cells. 1) Relatively modest changes of cellular volume in animal cells (i.e. concentration of intracellular macromolecules) are associated with changes in the rates of a broad spectrum of diverse intracellular processes that are much too large to be accounted for on the basis of simple mass action (28Lang F. Busch G.L. Ritter M. Völkl H. Waldegger S. Gulbins E. Häussinger D. Physiol. Rev. 1998; 78: 247-306Crossref PubMed Scopus (1556) Google Scholar). 2) Every type of cell so far examined, from bacterial to human, is equipped with one or more mechanisms (varying widely among different types of cells) for the maintenance or restoration of cellular volume, water content, and/or turgor pressure in response to changes in composition of the extracellular fluid (29Somero, G. N., Osmond, C. B., and Bolis, C. L. (eds) (1992)Water and Life,Springer-Verlag, BerlinGoogle Scholar). The examples presented here are only a few of many supporting the hypothesis that macromolecular crowding and confinement play important and perhaps essential roles in cell biology and physiology (11Zimmerman S.B.
