Abstract
The analysis of anisotropic atomic displacement parameters for the direct extraction of functionally relevant motion from X-ray crystal structures of Fusarium oxysporum trypsin is presented. Several atomic resolution structures complexed with inhibitors or substrates and determined at different pH values and temperatures were investigated. The analysis revealed a breathing-like molecular motion conserved across trypsin structures from two organisms and three different crystal forms. Directional motion was observed suggesting a change of the width of the substrate-binding cleft and a change in the length of the specificity pocket. The differences in direction of motion across the structures are dependent on the mode of substrate or inhibitor binding and the chemical environment around the active-site residues. Together with the occurrence of multiple-residue conformers, they reflect spatial rearrangement throughout the deacylation pathway.
Figure 1.
Figure 1 Active site in F. oxysporum trypsin. The top row shows the change in the interaction between the substrate and the catalytic serine and histidine, as well as Asp189 in the specificity pocket in the ROOM, PH4 and PH5 structures. The distances of interest around the substrate carbonyl group and in the specificity pocket are shown by dotted lines with their lengths given in angstroms. W1 and W2 are two water molecules located in the active site: W1 acts as the nucleophile and W2 as an activator by forming a strong hydrogen bond to the substrate carbonyl O atom. In the bottom row, the same arrangement of residues is shown. The protein atoms and coordinate axes are represented and coloured following the same scheme as in Fig. 3[107] [link]-[108][turqarr.gif] to indicate their directional motion. The orientation is the same as in Fig. 3[109] [link]-[110][turqarr.gif] . The figure was created with MOLSCRIPT/RASTER3D (Kraulis, 1991[111] [Kraulis, P. J. (1991). J. Appl. Cryst. 24, 946-950.]-[112][bluearr.gif] ; Merritt & Murphy, 1994[113] [Merritt, E. A. & Murphy, M. E. (1994). Acta Cryst. D50, 869-873.]-[114][bluearr.gif] ).
Figure 2.
Figure 2 Trypsin structures with the degree of anisotropy (average per residue) mapped onto the C^ [137][alpha] trace. The figure was produced with GRASP (Nicholls et al., 1991[138] [Nicholls, A., Sharp, K. A. & Honig, B. (1991). Proteins, 11, 281-296.]-[139][bluearr.gif] ). The deacylation pathway is depicted on the right-hand side of the figure.
