Abstract
The bovine chymotrypsin-bovine pancreatic trypsin inhibitor (BPTI) interaction belongs to extensively studied models of protein-protein recognition. The accommodation of the inhibitor P1 residue in the S1 binding site of the enzyme forms the hot spot of this interaction. Mutations introduced at the P1 position of BPTI result in a more than five orders of magnitude difference of the association constant values with the protease. To elucidate the structural aspects of the discrimination between different P1 residues, crystal structures of five bovine chymotrypsin-P1 BPTI variant complexes have been determined at pH 7.8 to a resolution below 2 A. The set includes polar (Thr), ionizable (Glu, His), medium-sized aliphatic (Met) and large aromatic (Trp) P1 residues and complements our earlier studies of the interaction of different P1 side-chains with the S1 pocket of chymotrypsin. The structures have been compared to the complexes of proteases with similar and dissimilar P1 preferences, including Streptomyces griseus proteases B and E, human neutrophil elastase, crab collagenase, bovine trypsin and human thrombin. The S1 sites of these enzymes share a common general shape of significant rigidity. Large and branched P1 residues adapt in their complexes similar conformations regardless of the polarity and size differences between their S1 pockets. Conversely, long and flexible residues such as P1 Met are present in the disordered form and display a conformational diversity despite similar inhibitory properties with respect to most enzymes studied. Thus, the S1 specificity profiles of the serine proteases appear to result from the precise complementarity of the P1-S1 interface and minor conformational adjustments occurring upon the inhibitor binding.

Figure 1. The electron density for the P1 residue of BPTI and residues Ser189, Ser190 and Met192 of chymotrypsin together with the hydrogen bonding pattern of the P1 side-chain in the structures of the following complexes: (a) Chtp-K15E BPTI; (b) Chtp-K15M BPTI; (c) Chtp-K15H BPTI; (d) Chtp-K15T BPTI; (e) Chtp-K15W BPTI. The 2F[o] -F[c] maps were contoured at 1.5s. Selected side-chains are indicated in red, the binding loop of the inhibitor in orange and the S1 binding pocket of the enzyme in gray (only the main-chain of the S1 pocket together with Cys191 and Cys220 side-chains is presented for clarity). This and the following Figures were produced with the program XtalView.47

Figure 2.
Figure 2 Molecular interactions of Tyr35. The electrons of the aromatic ring accept two N-H hydrogen bonds from the main-chain amide of Gly37 and from the side-chain amide of Asn44. The OH group of Tyr35 is also involved in an intermolecular hydrogen bond to a sulfate anion. (a) Electron density of the interacting residues: 3F[o] - 2F[c] map contoured at 0.65 e Å-3 (1.7 , blue) and H-omit difference map contoured at 0.10 e Å-3 (2.5 , green); (b) the same fragment shown with anisotropic displacement ellipsoids drawn at 20% probability. Hydrogen-bond distances (Å) are from the H atoms to the centre of the aromatic ring.

Figure 4 C=O C=O dipole interactions between the side-chain and main-chain carbonyl groups of the three Asn residues. Those residues are among the best regions of the structure, as illustrated by the 3F[o] - 2F[c] electron density. Contour level: 2.01 e Å-3 (5.3 ) for Asn24 and 2.12 e Å-3 (5.7 ) for Asn43-Asn44. The atom-atom distances in these interactions are given in Å and are indicated by dotted lines. The conformation of the main chain is described by the / values and that of the side chains by the [1] torsion angles.
