A Buried Polar Interaction Imparts Structural Uniqueness in a Designed Heterodimeric Coiled Coil
Abstract
Buried polar residues are a common feature of natural proteins. ACID-p1 and BASE-p1 are two designed peptides that form a parallel, heterodimeric coiled coil with a fixed tertiary structure [O'Shea, E. K., Lumb, K. J., & Kim, P. S. (1993) Curr. Biol. 3, 658-667]. The interface between the ACID-p1 and BASE-p1 helices consists of hydrophobic Leu residues, with the exception of a single polar residue, Asn 14. In the crystal structure of the GCN4 leucine zipper coiled coil, an analogous Asn is hydrogen bonded to the corresponding Asn of the opposing helix, thereby forming a buried polar interaction in an otherwise hydrophobic interface between the helices [O'Shea, E. K., Klemm, J. D., Kim, P. S., & Alber, T. (1991) Science 254, 539-544]. This buried polar interaction in the ACID-p1/BASE-p1 heterodimer was removed by substituting Asn 14 with Leu. The Asn 14-->Leu variants are significantly more stable than the p1 peptides and preferentially form a heterotetramer instead of a heterodimer. Strikingly, the heterotetramer does not fold into a unique structure; in particular, the helices lack a unique orientation. Thus, the Asn 14 residue imparts specificity for formation of a two-stranded, parallel coiled coil at the expense of stability. The results suggest that, whereas nonspecific hydrophobic interactions contribute to protein stability, the requirement to satisfy the hydrogen bonding potential of buried polar residues in the generally hydrophobic environment of the protein interior can impart specificity (structural uniqueness) to protein folding and design.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
