先前对重组全长人载脂蛋白A - V(apoA - V)的研究提供了存在两个独立折叠结构域的证据。计算机辅助序列分析和有限的蛋白水解研究确定了一个N末端片段为其中一个结构域的候选者。在此大小范围内的C末端截短变体,apoA - V(1 - 146)和apoA - V(1 - 169),在大肠杆菌中表达并分离出来。与全长apoA - V或apoA - V(1 - 169)不同,apoA - V(1 - 146)在无脂质的情况下可溶于中性pH缓冲液。沉降平衡分析得出重均分子量为18811,表明apoA - V(1 - 146)在溶液中以单体形式存在。在pH 3.0下的盐酸胍变性实验产生了一个从天然态到变性态的一步转变,这与全长apoA - V所呈现的两阶段变性曲线中更稳定的组分直接对应。另一方面,在pH 7.0下进行的变性实验显示其结构不太稳定。与已知的螺旋束载脂蛋白类似,apoA - V(1 - 146)引起8 - 苯胺基 - 1 - 萘磺酸荧光强度相对较小的增强。对单色氨酸apoA - V(1 - 146)变体的猝灭研究表明,一个预测位于两亲性α - 螺旋非极性面上的独特位点受到碘化钾猝灭的保护。综上所述,数据表明人apoA - V的146个N末端残基在无脂质的情况下采用螺旋束分子结构,因此在完整蛋白质的背景下可能作为一个独立折叠的结构域存在。
Previous studies of recombinant full-length human apolipoprotein A-V (apoA-V) provided evidence of the presence of two independently folded structural domains. Computer-assisted sequence analysis and limited proteolysis studies identified an N-terminal fragment as a candidate for one of the domains. C-Terminal truncation variants in this size range, apoA-V(1–146) and apoA-V(1–169), were expressed in Escherichia coli and isolated. Unlike full-length apoA-V or apoA-V(1–169), apoA-V(1–146) was soluble in neutral-pH buffer in the absence of lipid. Sedimentation equilibrium analysis yielded a weight-average molecular weight of 18811, indicating apoA-V(1–146) exists as a monomer in solution. Guanidine HCl denaturation experiments at pH 3.0 yielded a one-step native to unfolded transition that corresponds directly with the more stable component of the two-stage denaturation profile exhibited by full-length apoA-V. On the other hand, denaturation experiments conducted at pH 7.0 revealed a less stable structure. In a manner similar to that of known helix bundle apolipoproteins, apoA-V(1–146) induced a relatively small enhancement in 8-anilino-1-naphthalenesulfonic acid fluorescence intensity. Quenching studies with single-Trp apoA-V(1–146) variants revealed that a unique site predicted to reside on the nonpolar face of an amphipathic α-helix was protected from quenching by KI. Taken together, the data suggest the 146 N-terminal residues of human apoA-V adopt a helix bundle molecular architecture in the absence of lipid and, thus, likely exist as an independently folded structural domain within the context of the intact protein.
