- W2073614644 abstract "alpha-Tropomyosin (Tm) is a two-stranded alpha-helical coiled-coil protein, which participates in the regulation of muscle contraction. Unlike Tm purified from vertebrate muscle, recombinant Tm expressed in Escherichia coli is not acetylated at the N-terminal residue and loses the capacity to undergo head-to-tail polymerization, to bind actin and to inhibit actomyosin ATPase activity. These functions are restored by fusion of an N-terminal Ala-Ser (AS) dipeptide tail to recombinant Tm. Here, we have employed chemical (guanidine hydrochloride and urea) and physical (elevated hydrostatic pressures and low temperatures) denaturing agents to compare the structural stabilities of polymeric alanine-serine-tropomyosin (ASTm, containing the AS dipeptide) and dimeric non-fusion Tm (nfTm, i.e., not containing the AS dipeptide). Binding of the hydrophobic fluorescent dye bis-ANS, circular dichroism and size-exclusion chromatography were used to monitor the stabilities and state of association of both proteins under different solution conditions. Bis-ANS binding was markedly decreased at low concentrations (<1M) of GdnHCl or urea, whereas the secondary structures of both ASTm and nfTm were essentially unaffected in the same range of denaturant concentrations. These results suggest local unfolding of bis-ANS binding domains prior to global unfolding of Tm. In contrast, increased bis-ANS binding was observed when Tm was submitted to high pressures or to low temperatures, implying increased exposure of hydrophobic domains in the protein. Taken together, the different sensitivities of ASTm and nfTm to different denaturing agents support the notion that, at close to physiological conditions, head-to-tail interactions in polymerized ASTm are predominantly stabilized by electrostatic interactions between adjacent Tm dimers, whereas non-polar interactions appear to play a major role in the stability of the coiled-coil structure of individual Tm dimers." @default.
