Functionally specific binding regions of microtubule-associated protein 2c exhibit distinct conformations and dynamics

Microtubule-associated protein 2c (MAP2c) is a 49-kDa intrinsically disordered protein regulating the dynamics of microtubules in developing neurons. MAP2c differs from its sequence homologue Tau in the pattern and kinetics of phosphorylation by cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA). Moreover, the mechanisms through which MAP2c interacts with its binding partners and the conformational changes and dynamics associated with these interactions remain unclear. Here, we used NMR relaxation and paramagnetic relaxation enhancement techniques to determine the dynamics and long-range interactions within MAP2c. The relaxation rates revealed large differences in flexibility of individual regions of MAP2c, with the lowest flexibility observed in the known and proposed binding sites. Quantitative conformational analyses of chemical shifts, small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), and paramagnetic relaxation enhancement measurements disclosed that MAP2c regions interacting with important protein partners, including Fyn tyrosine kinase, plectin, and PKA, adopt specific conformations. High populations of polyproline II and alpha-helices were found in Fyn- and plectin-binding sites of MAP2c, respectively. The region binding the regulatory subunit of PKA consists of two helical motifs bridged by a more extended conformation. Of note, although MAP2c and Tau did not differ substantially in their conformations in regions of high sequence identity, we found that they differ significantly in long-range interactions, dynamics, and local conformation motifs in their N-terminal domains. These results highlight that the N-terminal regions of MAP2c provide important specificity to its regulatory roles and indicate a close relationship between MAP2c's biological functions and conformational behavior

Structure and Functions of Microtubule Associated Proteins Tau and MAP2c: Similarities and Differences

The stability and dynamics of cytoskeleton in brain nerve cells are regulated by microtubule associated proteins (MAPs), tau and MAP2. Both proteins are intrinsically disordered and involved in multiple molecular interactions important for normal physiology and pathology of chronic neurodegenerative diseases. Nuclear magnetic resonance and cryo-electron microscopy recently revealed propensities of MAPs to form transient local structures and long-range contacts in the free state, and conformations adopted in complexes with microtubules and filamentous actin, as well as in pathological aggregates. In this paper, we compare the longest, 441-residue brain isoform of tau (tau40), and a 467-residue isoform of MAP2, known as MAP2c. For both molecules, we present transient structural motifs revealed by conformational analysis of experimental data obtained for free soluble forms of the proteins. We show that many of the short sequence motifs that exhibit transient structural features are linked to functional properties, manifested by specific interactions. The transient structural motifs can be therefore classified as molecular recognition elements of tau40 and MAP2c. Their interactions are further regulated by post-translational modifications, in particular phosphorylation. The structure-function analysis also explains differences between biological activities of tau40 and MAP2c

Boosting the resolution of low-field 15 N relaxation experiments on intrinsically disordered proteins with triple-resonance NMR

International audienceImproving our understanding of nanosecond motions in disordered proteins requires the enhanced sampling of the spectral density function obtained from relaxation at low magnetic fields. High-resolution relaxometry and two-field NMR measurements of relaxation have, so far, only been based on the recording of one-or two-dimensional spectra, which provide insufficient resolution for challenging disordered proteins. Here, we introduce a 3D-HNCO-based two-field NMR experiment for measurements of protein backbone 15 N amide longitudinal relaxation rates. The experiment provides accurate longitudinal relaxation rates at low field (0.33 T in our case) preserving the resolution and sensitivity typical for high-field NMR spectroscopy. Radiofrequency pulses applied on 6 different radiofrequency channels are used to manipulate the spin system at both fields. The experiment was demonstrated on the C-terminal domain of δ subunit of RNA polymerase from Bacillus subtilis, a protein with highly repetitive amino-acid sequence and very low dispersion of backbone chemical shifts

Convergent vews on disordered protein dynamics from NMR and computational approaches

International audienceIntrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) or intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) is a class of biologically important proteins exhibiting specific biophysical characteristics. They lack a hydrophobic core, and their conformational behavior is strongly influenced by electrostatic interactions. IDPs and IDRs are highly dynamic, and a characterization of the motions of IDPs and IDRs is essential for their physically correct description. NMR together with molecular dynamics simulations are the methods best suited to such a task because they provide information about dynamics of proteins with atomistic resolution. Here, we present a study of motions of a disordered C-terminal domain of the delta subunit of RNA polymerase from Bacillus subtilis. Positively and negatively charged residues in the studied domain form transient electrostatic contacts critical for the biological function. Our study is focused on investigation of ps-ns dynamics of backbone of the delta subunit based on analysis of amide 15N NMR relaxation data and molecular dynamics simulations. In order to extend an informational content of NMR data to lower frequencies, which are more sensitive to slower motions, we combined standard (high-field) NMR relaxation experiments with high-resolution relaxometry. Altogether, we collected data reporting the relaxation at 12 different magnetic fields, resulting in an unprecedented data set. Our results document that the analysis of such data provides a consistent description of dynamics and confirms the validity of so far used protocols of the analysis of dynamics of IDPs also for a partially folded protein. In addition, the potential to access detailed description of motions at the timescale of tens of ns with the help of relaxometry data is discussed. Interestingly, in our case, it appears to be mostly relevant for a region involved in the formation of temporary contacts within the disordered region, which was previously proven to be biologically important
