英文摘要
Approximately half the proteins present in cells are associated with lipid
bilayers, and they arguably perform some of the most interesting and
important functions in the cell. For example, ion channels control the
cellular environment and facilitate nerve signaling, while membrane
receptors are critical for the control of cellular metabolism.
Macromolecules that are key elements in viral infection and the immune
response ate also membrane proteins. Unfortunately, relatively little is
known regarding the structures, molecular operation and assembly of
membrane proteins. This is primarily a result of the fact that approaches
that can yield structural information on water-soluble proteins such as
crystallography and high resolution NMR generally fail when applied to
membrane proteins. The is potentially an enormous payoff when such
structures are understood, because of the potential to design new
pharmaceuticals that target specific structures and processes in these
proteins. This structural information will also facilitate a molecular
understanding of numerous genetic diseases.
Presently, there are no voltage-gated channels where the molecular events
leading to gating have been clearly elucidated, and the objective of the
proposed research is to define the molecular mechanisms that lead to
voltage-gating and regulation of two membrane ion channels. The structure
and gating mechanism of alamethicin will be studied, a small peptide that
produces a voltage-dependent conductance in membranes. It is a model for
larger voltage-gated channels, and it also belongs to a wider group of
membrane active peptides that have important antibiotic activities. A
second protein that will be studied is phospholemman. This protein is
found in the myocardium and it is the major sarcolemmal substrate of
cyclic AMP dependent protein kinase A and protein kinase C. Phospholemman
is an 8 KDa transmembrane protein that forms a voltage-activated anion
channel. By characterizing the structure and molecular gating of these
channels, it is anticipated that fundamental information regarding the
nature of membrane ion transport and the structural changes associated
with gating and channel regulation will be obtained.
The proposed work will make use of spectroscopic techniques such as EPR,
high resolution NMR and solid-state NMR to define the structures of these
channels and the changes associated with gating and covalent modification.
Spin-probes will be incorporated into these channels for EPR experiments
using synthetic techniques and site-directed mutagenesis.
