摘要

PhoB是PhoR/PhoB双组分信号转导系统(TCS)中的应答调控蛋白,来自大肠杆菌,可以参与环境中自由Pi的调控应答.PhoB拥有保守的磷酸化位点D53,当Mg2+存在时,会变成活性构象,但是其中的机理尚不清楚.目前已经有报道指出,自由态的应答调控蛋白存在少量的活性构象,而且它们和蛋白的激活过程相关,但是这种活性构象一般不稳定,很难观测到.本文以PhoBNF20D作为模型,1H-15N HSQC和19F NMR谱图显示,自由态PhoBNF20D在溶液中存在pre-active构象,BeF3-可以稳定这种活性构象,而且Mg2+可以促进非活性构象到活性构象之间的转化,在BeF3-存在的情况下可以使PhoBNF20D形成完全的活性构象.同时我们利用Carr-Purcell-Meiboom-Gill(CPMG)弛豫弥散实验证明了PhoBNF20D存在两态交换.

Abstract

PhoB is a response regulator of the PhoR/PhoB two-component system (TCS) in Escherichia Coli, which is involved in environmental phosphate regulation. PhoB activation is known to be mediated by Mg2+ coordination and phosphorylation of the conserved D53 residue, but the exact mechanism remains to be elucidated. It has been proposed that minor active conformations of the response regulator may preexist in its apo state and be related to the activation. However, such minor states are instable and difficult to observe. In this work, 1H-15N HSQC and 19F NMR experiments were performed on a monomeric mutant PhoBNF20D. It was observed that the apo PhoBNF20D had a pre-active conformation, which could be partially stabilized by the phosphoryl group analog BeF3-without the presence of Mg2+. Addition of Mg2+ shifted the equilibrium towards the active form. Furthermore, the exchange between the inactive and active conformations were confirmed by the CPMG (Carr-Purcell-Meiboom-Gill) relaxation dispersion experiments. It is concluded that the apo PhoBNF20D have both inactive and active conformations, and the pre-active conformation can be stabilized by BeF3-.
