HA binding proteins Methods for characterizing GAG-binding proteins Conformation and sequence considerations Examples of heparin-binding proteins Overview

Physical Properties Interglycosidic H-bonding restricts rotations across glycosidic bonds Promotes rapid recovery after mechanical perturbations

Lo Affinity High Affinity Affinity Chromatography - High affinity interactions have Kd values of 10-7-10-9 and require about 1 M NaCl to elute - Low affinity interactions have Kd values of 10-4 to 10-6 and elute at 0.15 - 0.5 M NaCl NaCl
Affinity Chromatography on Immobilized GAG -Prepare column by covalently linking GAG to activated resin -Bind sample, elute with ligand, pH, chelators
Affinity Co-Electrophoresis • Pour acrylamide gel with GAG binding protein in gel • Electrophorese radioactive GAG • Binding of chains to protein retards their mobility • Measure Kd and non-binding fraction Non-binding fraction San Antonio & Lander (2001)Meth Mol Biol. 171:401
Protein Oligosaccharide Filter Binding Assay • Mix oligosaccharides with protein in solution • Collect by filtration on nitrocellulose membranes • Only oligosaccharides bound to protein stick to filter • Solution equilibrium conditions are achieved • Vary salt, divalent cations, pH, competitors Maccarana & Lindahl (1993) Glycobiology 3:271
NS 2S CO2- 6S CO2- NS 2S Conformational Considerations NS and 2S groups are on the same side COO- locations depend on whether its GlcA or IdoA GAG chains assume helical configurations, which causes charged residues to alternate across the helix
Sugar Conformation • Most sugars prefer the 4C1 conformation • IdoA which is formed by epimerization of GlcA has the 1C4 or 1S0 conformation • The greater conformational flexibility means that the sulfate and carboxylates can shift position more readily • Greater binding possibilities and induced fit
Generally, GAG binding proteins contain clustered Lysine and Arginine residues In 1989, Cardin and Weintraub proposed a consensus sequence for heparin binding proteins, B = basic residue -XBBXBX- -XBBBXXBX- Do Consensus Sequences Exist?

Antithrombin-Heparin KD ~ 2.5 x 10-10 M DG ~ 13.3 kcal/mol
Antithrombin-Heparin Interactions Thrombin • Binding sequence for antithrombin is a pentasaccharide, a minor subfraction • Need an 18-mer to inactivate thrombin • Heparin acts as a template Antithrombin Heparin 6S 6S a4 b4 a4 a4 NS NS3S 2S NS
