Presentation Transcript

  1. Protein Structure and Function 1, 2 , 3 , 4  Structure Viewing, interpreting structure Protein Characterization BIO520 Bioinformatics Jim Lund

  2. ~100 to >10,000 aa Soluble Integral membrane proteins Membrane-associated Single domain, multiple domains singular, multimeric, large complex Protein variety DIVERSE

  3. 1 structure aa sequence 2  structure regular local folding 3  structure packing and overall folding 4  structure polypeptide:polypeptide complexes Protein Structure

  4. Proteolysis/processing Residues Modified cysteine disulfides phosphorylation methylation Heteroatoms Metal ions, heme, cofactors…. Modifications

  5. Dogma Sequence=Structure Similar Sequence Similar Function Kinetics vs Thermodynamics Chaperones

  6. Restricted, but considerable rotation Different residuesdifferent , Regular ,  helix  sheet , angles

  7. Experimental , angles Hovmöller et al., 2002. Conformations of amino acids in proteins

  8. An example Ramachandran plot Ideal a kinase

  9. H-bonding orientation (dielectric) Hydrophobic effect nonpolar to core Ionic interaction + to -, (dielectric) Dipole effects  helix, N to C (+ to -) Forces holding proteins together

  10. right-handed aa preferences A,E,L,M (enriched) P,G,Y,S (less likely) 3.6 residues/turn helical wheel (amphipathic) dipole N to C -helix

  11. Parallel or antiparallel N-to-C Mixed -sheets are rare: only ~20% of -sheets are mixed parallel/anti-parallel. “pleated” and “twisted” aa preferences -sheet

  12. Length, conformation variable 2 aa hairpins common loops on surface diverge rapidly -turn, loops

  13. hairpin  (-loop- ) Helix-loop-helix Greek key (4 antiparallel , wrap) --  motif (-alpha helix-parallel ) Simple Super-2o Motifs Motifs-Domain Tertiary

  14. Hairpin 

  15. Helix-loop-helixHelix-turn-helix

  16. Helix-loop-helixHelix-turn-helix DNA binding EF hand (Ca++ binding)

  17. Greek key(4 antiparallel , wrap)

  18. --  motif(-alpha helix-parallel )
