Abstract

Cellulosomes er diskrete Multienzyme komplekser som brukes av en undergruppe av anaerobe bakterier og sopp å fordøye lignocelluloseholdige substrater. Montering av enzymer bort på noncatalytic scaffoldprotein er regissert av samhandling mellom en familie av beslektede reseptor-ligand par som omfatter samspill cohesin og dockerin moduler. Den ekstremt sterk binding mellom cohesin og dockerin moduler resultater i dissosiasjonskonstanter i den lave picomolar til nanomolarområdet, noe som kan hemme nøyaktige off-rate målinger med konvensjonelle bulk metoder. Single-molekyl kraft spektroskopi (SMFs) med atommikroskop måler responsen til den enkelte biomolekyler for å tvinge, og i motsetning til andre enkelt molekyl manipuleringsmetoder (dvs. optisk pinsetter), er optimal for å studere høyaffinitets-reseptor-ligand-vekselvirkninger, fordi av sin evne til å sondere høy styrke regime (> 120 pN). Her presenterer vi vår fullstendige protokollen for å studere cellulosomal protein forsamlinger på enkelt-molekyl nivå. Ved hjelp av et protein topologi avledet fra de innfødte cellulosome, vi jobbet med enzym-dockerin og karbohydrat bindende modul cohesin (CBM-cohesin) fusjon proteiner, hver med en tilgjengelig gratis tiolgruppe på en konstruert cysteinrest. Vi presenterer sete-spesifikk overflate immobilisering protokoll, sammen med vår måling og analyse av data Fremgangsmåten for å oppnå detaljerte bindingsparametre for den høyaffinitets-kompleks. Vi viser hvordan du kvantifisere enkeltunderdomene utfolder krefter, komplekse bruddstyrker, kinetiske off-priser, og potensielle bredder på bindingen godt. Vellykket bruk av disse metodene i karakteriserer cohesin-dockerin interaksjon ansvarlig for montering av multidomain cellulolytic komplekser er nærmere beskrevet.
