2. Biomolecular Interaction: Enzyme + Substrate • This is a generalization of how a biochemist might represent the function of enzymes. E + S ==> E + P

3. Biomolecular Interaction: Enzyme + Substrate • Here is an example of the generalization represented by two different ways. E + S ==> E + P kinase-ATP complex + inactive-enzyme ==> Kinase + ADP + active enzyme K P ATP ADP

4. Biomolecular Interaction: Enzyme + Substrate • This is another representation. inactiveenzyme Kinase-ATPcomplex Activeenzyme ADP

5. Biomolecular Interaction • This is a generalization of the representation. A B C D E … F

6. Biomolecular Function • A biomolecule’s function can be defined by the things that it interacts with and the new (or altered) molecules that result from that interaction. A B C D E … F

7. Biomolecular Function • This representation makes it easy to focus on the interaction part. A B C D E … n

8. A Simple BIND Record • The minimal BIND record has 9 pieces of information. A B 1. Short label for A 2. Short label for B3. Molecule type for A 4. Molecule type for B 5. Database reference for A 6. Database reference for B7. Where A comes from 8. Where B comes from 9. Publication reference

9. An Example BIND Record • You can view this record in BIND A B 1. INAD 2. TRP3. Protein 4. Protein 5. GenBank GI 3641615 6. GenBank GI 73018617. GenBank Taxonomy ID 7227 8. GenBank Taxonomy ID 7227 9. PubMed ID 8630257

11. BIND Stores Molecular Interaction Data

12. BIND Records are Based on Observations • All BIND records will have a publication reference and most will specifically list a method(s) used to demonstrate the interaction. A B 1. Short label for A 2. Short label for B3. Molecule type for A 4. Molecule type for B 5. Database reference for A 6. Database reference for B7. Where A comes from 8. Where B comes from 9. Publication reference

13. Methods for Detecting Interactions. • A great deal of interaction data in BIND originates from high-throughput experiments designed to detect interactions between proteins. • The most common methods are: • Two-hybrid assay • Affinity purification

21. Some Two-Hybrid Caveats 1. A 3. 2. 4. Does the DBD-fusion have activity by itself?

22. Some Two-Hybrid Caveats 1. C B A 3. 2. 4. Is the ‘interaction’ mediated by some other protein?

23. Some Two-Hybrid Questions 1. B A 3. 2. • Are the proteins expressed? • Are they over-expressed? • Are they in-frame? • Are the interacting domains defined? • Was the observation reproducible? • Was the strength of interaction significant? • Was another method used to back-up the conclusion? • Are the two proteins from the same compartment? 4.

24. Some Two-Hybrid Caveats 1. A B 3. 2. 4. Is the ‘interaction’ bi-directional?

25. Experimental Method: Affinity Purification This molecule will bind the ‘tag’. A Tag modification(e.g. HA/GST/His) Protein of interest

26. Affinity Purification The cell A

27. Affinity Purification Lots of other untagged proteins The cell A B Naturally binding protein

28. Affinity Purification Ruptured membranes A B Cell extract

29. Affinity Purification A B Untagged proteins go through fastest (flow-through)

30. Affinity Purification A B Tagged complexes are slower and come out later (eluate)

31. Some Questions about Affinity Purification • Is the bait protein expressed and in frame? • Is the bait protein observed? • Is the bait protein over-expressed? • Are the interacting domains defined? • Was the observation reproducible? • Was the interactor found in the background? • Was the strength of interaction significant? • Was the interaction saturable? • Was the interactor stoichiometric with the bait protein? • Was another method used to back-up the conclusion? • Was tandem-affinity purification (TAP) used? • Was the interaction shown using an extract or a purified protein? • Is the inverse interaction observable? • Are the two proteins from the same compartment? • Are the two proteins known to be involved in the same process? • Is the interactor likely to be physiologically significant? A B

32. Some Affinity Purification Caveats First and most importantly, this is only a representation of the observation. You can only tell what proteins are in the eluate; you can’t tell how they are connected to one another. If there is only one other protein present (B), then its likely that A and B are directly interacting. But, what if I told you that two other proteins (B and C) were present along with A…. A B A C B

33. Complexes with Unknown Binding Topology A A A B C B C B C Which of these models is correct? The complex described by this experimental result is said to have an Unknown Topology.

34. Complexes with Unknown Stoichiometry A A B C Here’s another possibility? The complex described by this experimental result is also said to have Unknown Stoichiometry.

43. Reversibility of Chemical Reactions: Equilibrium • Chemical reactions are reversible • Under certain conditions (concentration, temperature) both reactants and products exist together in equilibrium state H2 2H

44. Reaction Rates Net reaction rate = forward rate – reverse rate • In equilibrium: Net reaction rate = 0 • When reactants “just” brought together: Far from equilibrium, focus only on forward rate • But, same arguments apply to the reverse rate

45. The Differential Rate Law • How does the rate of the reaction depend on concentration? E.g. m+n: Overall order of the reaction 3A + 2B  C + D rate = k [A]m[B]n (Specific reaction) rate constant Order of reaction with respect to A Order of reaction with respect to B

46. Rate Constants and Reaction Orders • Each reaction is characterized by its own rate constant, depending on the nature of the reactants and the temperature • In general, the order with respect to each reagent must be found experimentally (not necessarily equal to stoichiometric coefficient)

47. Elementary Processes and Rate Laws • Reaction mechanism: The collection of elementary processes by which an overall reaction occurs • The order of an elementary process is predictable

48. Elementary Processes and Rate Laws • Reaction mechanism: The collection of elementary processes by which an overall reaction occurs • The order of an elementary process is predictable
