    Capping protein (CP) binds to the barbed end of an actin-filament and inhibits its elongation. CARMIL binds CP and dissociates it from the barbed end of the actin-filament. The binding of CARMIL peptide alters the flexibility of CP, which is considered to facilitate the dissociation. Twinfilin also binds to CP through its C-terminal tail. The complex structures of the CP/twinfilin-tail (TW-tail) peptide indicate that the binding sites of CARMIL and TW-tail overlap. However, TW-tail binding does not facilitate the dissociation of CP from the barbed end. We extensively investigated the flexibilities of CP in the CP/TW-tail or CP/CARMIL complexes using an elastic network model and concluded that TW-tail binding does not alter the flexibility of CP. Our extensive analysis also highlighted that the strong contacts of peptides with the two domains of CP, that is, the CP-L and CP-S domains, are key to changing the flexibilities of CP. CARMIL peptides can interact strongly with both of the domains, while TW-tail peptides exclusively interact with the CP-S domain because the binding site of TW-tail on CP relatively shifts to the CP-S domain compared with that of CP/CARMIL. This result supports our hypothesis that the dissociation of CP from the barbed end is regulated by the flexibility of CP.

  8. Rational design of phase separating peptides based on phase separating protein sequence of p53 Reviewed

    Artificial phase-separating (PS) peptides can be used in various applications such as microreactors and drug delivery; however, the design of artificial PS peptides remains a challenge. This can be attributed to the limitation of PS-relevant residues that drive phase separation by interactions of their pairs in short peptides and the difficulty in the design involving interaction with target PS proteins. In this study, we propose a rational method to design artificial PS peptides that satisfy the requirements of liquid droplet formation and co-phase separation with target PS proteins based on the target PS protein sequence. As a proof of concept, we designed five artificial peptides from the model PS protein p53 using this method and confirmed their PS properties using differential interference contrast and fluorescence microscopy. Single-molecule fluorescent tracking demonstrated rapid diffusion of the designed peptides in their droplets compared to that of p53 in p53 droplets. In addition, size-dependent uptake of p53 oligomers was observed in the designed peptide droplets. Large oligomers were excluded from the droplet voids and localized on the droplet surface. The uptake of high-order p53 oligomers into the droplets was enhanced by the elongated linker of the designed peptides. Furthermore, we found that the designed peptide droplets recruited p53 to suppress gel-like aggregate formation. Finally, we discuss aspects that were crucial in the successful design of the artificial PS peptides.

    Molecular chaperones are indispensable proteins that assist the folding of aggregation-prone proteins into their functional native states, thereby maintaining organized cellular systems. Two of the best-characterized chaperones are the Escherichia coli chaperonins GroEL and GroES (GroE), for which in vivo obligate substrates have been identified by proteome-wide experiments. These substrates comprise various proteins but exhibit remarkable structural features. They include a number of α/β proteins, particularly those adopting the TIM β/α barrel fold. This observation led us to speculate that GroE obligate substrates share a structural motif. Based on this hypothesis, we exhaustively compared substrate structures with the MICAN alignment tool, which detects common structural patterns while ignoring the connectivity or orientation of secondary structural elements. We selected four (or five) substructures with hydrophobic indices that were mostly included in substrates and excluded in others, and developed a GroE obligate substrate discriminator. The substructures are structurally similar and superimposable on the 2-layer 2α4β sandwich, the most popular protein substructure, implying that targeting this structural pattern is a useful strategy for GroE to assist numerous proteins. Seventeen false positives predicted by our methods were experimentally examined using GroE-depleted cells, and 9 proteins were confirmed to be novel GroE obligate substrates. Together, these results demonstrate the utility of our common substructure hypothesis and prediction method.

    The major cytoskeleton protein actin undergoes cyclic transitions between the monomeric G-form and the filamentous F-form, which drive organelle transport and cell motility. This mechanical work is driven by the ATPase activity at the catalytic site in the F-form. For deeper understanding of the actin cellular functions, the reaction mechanism must be elucidated. Here, we show that a single actin molecule is trapped in the F-form by fragmin domain-1 binding and present their crystal structures in the ATP analog-, ADP-Pi-, and ADP-bound forms, at 1.15-Å resolutions. The G-to-F conformational transition shifts the side chains of Gln137 and His161, which relocate four water molecules including W1 (attacking water) and W2 (helping water) to facilitate the hydrolysis. By applying quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics calculations to the structures, we have revealed a consistent and comprehensive reaction path of ATP hydrolysis by the F-form actin. The reaction path consists of four steps: 1) W1 and W2 rotations; 2) PG–O3B bond cleavage; 3) four concomitant events: W1–PO32 formation, OH2 and proton cleavage, nucleophilic attack by the OH2 against PG, and the abstracted proton transfer; and 4) proton relocation that stabilizes the ADP-Pi–bound F-form actin. The mechanism explains the slow rate of ATP hydrolysis by actin and the irreversibility of the hydrolysis reaction. While the catalytic strategy of actin ATP hydrolysis is essentially the same as those of motor proteins like myosin, the process after the hydrolysis is distinct and discussed in terms of Pi release, F-form destabilization, and global conformational changes.

    Advances in structural biology have provided a wealth of information on protein structures. In many proteins, multiple structures under distinct functional states are available. The comparison of such structures reveals structural changes during the transition between the states, for example, those from ligand-free to -bound states. These structural changes are important for understanding the molecular mechanism of protein function. Currently, a number of computational methods have been developed to compare distinct structural states of the same protein and describe protein structural changes. The resulting structural changes are stored in databases. After a brief introduction of pre-existing methods and databases, we introduce Motion Tree, which illustrates various structural changes using a tree diagram and provides an explanation of how to use Motion Tree. We also introduce PSCDB, which presents structural changes for 837 proteins including homodimers. Structural changes are classified into seven categories based on the types of motions and bound ligands. PSCDB is available via the Internet.

    ATPアーゼはATPを分解することで生じるエネルギーを用いて,細胞内でさまざまな仕事を行っている.本研究ではATPアーゼがどのように仕事を実現しているのか,その分子メカニズム(構造変化)を調査する.ATPアーゼといっても細胞を変形させるものから,分子を輸送するものなど様々な種類が存在する.バイオインフォマティクスの技術を駆使し,蛋白質のデータベースを包括的にスキャンすることで,現時点で得られる限りのATPアーゼの構造変化を解析し,ATPアーゼの一般的な分子メカニズムを調査する.
    ATPアーゼはATPの加水分解から得られるエネルギーを利用し,さまざまな分子機能を実現する蛋白質の総称で,生体発動分子の好例である.ATPアーゼがどのように機能を実現しているのか,そのメカニズムを理解するためには,ATPアーゼの構造変化を明らかにする必要がある.ATPアーゼの構造変化,どの部位がどう動いているか,を明らかにすることで,機能するときにATPアーゼで何が起こっているのかを理解できる.生体内ではたらくさまざまなATPアーゼの構造変化を網羅的に解析し,ATPアーゼに特徴的な構造変化を明らかにする.また,ATPアーゼの機能に応じて,メカニズムがどう違うのか,構造変化と機能の相関関係を調査する.
    網羅的な解析を行うために,ATPアーゼの構造や機能に関するデータをできるだけ大規模に収集した.データの収集には本研究者が開発したATPアーゼのデータベースを活用する.このデータベースから,約350種のATPアーゼに関するデータを取得することができた.これらのATPアーゼには,ATP合成を行うもの,分子輸送を行うものなどが含まれていた.分子機能の観点から多様なATPアーゼを含むデータセットを構築できた.
    また,収集したATPアーゼの構造変化に関する調査を行った.構造変化を網羅的に解析するために,本研究者らが開発した独自プログラム,Motion TreeやSCPCを活用した.ATPアーゼの中には複数の蛋白質からなる複合体として働くものも多い.これらのプログラムを組み合わせることで,複合体として働くATPアーゼの構造変化の網羅的な解析を実現した.その結果,7割程度のATPアーゼでは何らかの構造変化が起こることが確認できた.また,構造変化が起こっているものでは,動いている部位を特定することができた.これにより,ATPアーゼが機能するさいに起こっていることが明らかになる.
    本研究では,ATPアーゼの構造変化を網羅的に解析し,構造変化と機能の関係を明らかにすることを目的とする.そのため,次の4つの作業工程で研究を進める.(1)これまで開発してきたATPアーゼのデータベースから構造データを収集する.(2)集めたデータから構造変化解析の基盤となる構造ペアのリストを作成する.(3)構造ペアから構造変化を特定し,データ化する.(4)構造変化と機能との関連を調査する.初年度は(1),(2)を行った後,(3)に着手する,また,進行にあわせてデータベース化の作業を行う,という計画を立てた.
    研究実績の概要で述べたように,約350種のATPアーゼのデータ収集を行った.収集したATPアーゼに関しては,構造ペアのリストを作成した.構造ペアに対して本研究者らが開発した独自プログラムMotion TreeとSCPCを適用した.これにより,あらかたのATPアーゼについて,構造変化のデータ化を完了できた.そのため,「おおむね順調に進展している」とした.
    本年度は昨年度に引き続きATPアーゼの構造変化のデータ化を進める.また,構造変化と機能との関連の調査を開始する.ATPアーゼの機能に関するデータは,これまで開発してきたATPアーゼのデータベースから収集を行う.この機能のデータに基づき,ATPアーゼをいくつかのグループに分類し,グループごとの構造変化の様子を調べる.このとき,構造変化部位のサイズや機能部位との関係に着目する.すなわち,ドメインのような比較的大きな部位の動きが顕著なのか,ループのような小さい部位の動きが顕著なのか,機能部位と近い部位,あるいは離れた部位,の動きが顕著なのかを調べる.網羅的な大規模解析を行うことで,機能グループごとに顕著な運動を統計的に明らかにする.それにより,各機能に必要な構造変化,すなわち分子メカニズム,がどのようなものかを調査する.

    アクチンフィラメントの伸び縮みは,細胞の変形や運動という生命にとって普遍的な現象と密接に関わる.本研究では,フィラメントの伸縮に関わるCARMIL蛋白質とキャッピング蛋白質(CP)に着目し,CARMILによるCPのフィラメントからの引きはがし(結合解離)の分子メカニズムを調査する.まず解離過程の分子シミュレーションを行う.このときフィラメントの代わりにV-1蛋白質を用いる.得られたシミュレーションのデータを,独自に開発した計算機ツールMotion Treeを用いて調査し,特徴的な分子運動を特定する.分子運動と結合の関係を探り,結合解離の分子メカニズムを調査する.
    アクチンフィラメントの伸長は細胞の変形や運動という普遍的な生命現象に直結しており,多数の蛋白質によって制御される.アクチンキャッピング蛋白質(CP)はフィラメントの端に結合しその伸長を止めるが,CARMIL蛋白質はCPと結合し,フィラメントに結合したCPを引きはがすことができる(結合解離).「CARMIL蛋白質によるCPの結合解離」の分子メカニズムを調査するために,結合解離の様子を,分子シミュレーションを用い計算機上で再現することを試みた.CPがアクチンとどのように結合しているのか,詳細はいまだ明らかになっていない.そこで,CPとの結合様式が詳細に明らかになっているV-1蛋白質を用い,CP/V-1複合体にCARMILが結合したモデル構造を作成する.そして,CARMILがCPとV-1の結合を解離させる様子をシミュレートし,「CARMIL蛋白質によるCPの結合解離」の分子メカニズムを調査する.
    結合解離はCPの動的構造の変化を介して実現すると考えられている.そのため,昨年度は分子シミュレーションから得られたデータを解析し,動的構造がどのように変化するのかを調査した.動的構造の情報は運動部位の統計データとして表現される.本年度は,さらに追加で分子シミュレーションを行った.解離過程に関するシミュレーションデータを増加させることで,運動部位に関する統計データを充実させ,より正確に動的構造が変化していく様子を割り出すことが期待できる.また,動的構造に影響を及ぼすCARMIL蛋白質の部位を調べるために,弾性ネットワークモデルを使った網羅的な解析を行った.これにより,CARMIL蛋白質中のどの部位が動的構造に与える影響が大きいか推定することができた.
    これまでに結合解離に関するシミュレーションを500ns(ナノ秒)まで実行した.今年度はこのシミュレーションをさらに延伸し,1500ns程度まで行った.また,条件を変えた結合解離シミュレーションを複数実行し,トータルで2000ns以上のシミュレーションデータを収集できた.動的構造を記述するための元データとなるシミュレーションデータを増強することができた.
    また,弾性ネットワークモデルを用いた動機構造の解析も行った.CP/CARMIL複合体の結晶構造をもとに,CARMILの長さが異なる700以上のモデル構造を計算機上で生成し,その動的構造を調べた.これにより,CARMIL蛋白質中のどの部位が動的構造に与える影響が大きいか推定することができた.この知見は結合解離シミュレーションを行うさいの拘束条件の選定に活かすことができる.
    本研究ではシミュレーションデータの入手,動的構造の解析,動的構造と結合解離の関係の調査を行う.本年度はシミュレーションデータの増強を行った.動的構造の解析に関しては昨年度までに先行して500ns分は完了している.解析のためのツールは作成済みであり,追加で得られた分も速やかに解析できる.これらに,結合解離シミュレーションに活用可能な,CARMILの部位とCPの動的構造に関する新たな知見が得られたことも加味して,進捗状況を「おおむね順調に進展している」とした.
    今後はまず,本年度に得られた追加のシミュレーションデータを解析し,結合解離の過程における動的構造を調査する.この解析では昨年度までに作成したクラスタリングツールなどを用いる.また,弾性ネットワークモデルを用いた解析から得られたCARMILの部位とCPの動的構造に関する知見を元に,拘束条件を追加した結合解離のシミュレーションを実行する.得られたデータを解析し,追加の拘束条件がCPの動的構造に与える影響を調べる.
    動的構造を調べることにより,シミュレーションの過程でCPのどの部位の運動が変化していくかを明らかにすることができる.運動に変化が見られた部位と,CPとV-1の結合解離において重要であろう結合部位やその周辺部位との関連を調査する.結合解離に影響する部位を突き止めることで,より具体的なCPとV-1の解離メカニズムを構築する.

    In the present study, we developed the configuration-selection (CS) constant pH method (CS-CpH method) based on molecular force field (MM) or quantum force field/molecular force field (QM/MM) methods to establish a general methodology to theoretically clarify molecular aggregation and biomolecular functions under solution pH conditions. Furthermore, by applying the Motion Tree (MT) method and time series analysis to large-scale motion information (Big Data) generated from protein molecular simulations, we have developed a non-equilibrium trajectory data analysis method that can also handle structural relaxation information that is deeply involved in protein functional expression. The method can reveal the dynamic conformational change patterns of protein structures, and has established an important technological foundation for the elucidation of biological function regulation mechanism based on conformational changes.
