Abstract
|
 |
|
Abstract The energetics of macromolecular interactions are complex, particularly
where protein flexibility is involved. Exploiting serendipitous differences in
the plasticity of a series of closely related trypsin variants, we analyzed the
enthalpic and entropic contributions accompanying interaction with L45K-eglin C.
Binding of the four variants show significant differences in released heat,
although the affinities vary little, in accordance with the principle of
enthalpy-entropy compensation. Binding of the most disordered variant is almost
entirely enthalpically driven, with practically no entropy change. As structures
of the complexes reveal negligible differences in protein-inhibitor contacts, we
conclude that solvent effects contribute significantly to binding affinities.
