Interrogating the structure and function of the human voltage-gated proton channel (hHv1) with a fluorescent noncanonical amino acid

Open access

Published version of a preprint

Abstract

The human voltage-gated proton channel (hH v 1) is a dimer of voltage-sensor domains (VSDs) containing highly selective proton permeation pathways in each monomer. In addition to voltage, hH v 1 is regulated by other stimuli, including pH gradients, mechanical forces, and ligands, such as Zn 2+ . Aside from the VSDs, this membrane protein contains an N-terminal domain and a C-terminal coiled-coil domain (CC) formed between the monomers. To address the need for direct measurements of conformational rearrangements in hH v 1, we developed a Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) approach to measuring the conformational rearrangements in full-length hH v 1 purified from E. coli . We used genetic code expansion (GCE) to generate a library of 14 full-length hH v 1 constructs, each incorporating the fluorescent noncanonical amino acid acridon-2-ylalanine (Acd) at a different site throughout the various structural domains. Following the expression and purification of these hH v 1-Acd proteins, we found that 12 sites yielded stable and functional proton-permeable channels. The fluorescence properties of Acd at each site showed small site-specific differences. Furthermore, we measured site-specific FRET efficiencies from tryptophan (Trp) and tyrosine (Tyr) to Acd in the hH v 1-Acd proteins and found results consistent with correct folding in detergent micelles. Finally, the addition of Zn 2+ produced reversible changes in FRET, with affected residues clustered on the intracellular side of the channel.

Figures

Figure 1. hHv1 was labeled with the fluorescent noncanonical amino acid Acd by genetic code expansion. (A) Cartoon showing the components of the genetic code expansion system used to incorporate Acd via amber codon suppression in hHv1. (B) AlphaFold structural model of the dimer hHv1 colored by subunit. (C) AlphaFold structural model of a single hHv1 subunit colored by the predicted Local Distance Difference Test (pLDDT). Model confidence was represented by a gradient from red to blue, indicating low to high pLDDT. (D) In-gel fluorescence and Western blot to evaluate Acd incorporation. An Acd fluorescence band corresponding to the molecular weight of full-length hHv1 (red arrow) was observed in cellular extracts after separation by SDS-PAGE only when cells contained the MjA9-AcdRS/tRNA plasmid (RS) and were grown in the presence of 1mM Acd (top). The Western blot against the His-tag present at the N-terminus of hHv1 confirmed that the band corresponded to the recombinant protein (bottom). Note the hHv1 truncated product produced when the amber stop codon is replacing F247 in the absence of the aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase/tRNA plasmid and Acd.

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.
