ABSTRACT

Targeted protein backbone modification can recreate tertiary structures reminiscent of folds found in nature on artificial scaffolds with improved biostability. Incorporation of altered monomers in such entities is typically limited to sites distant from the hydrophobic core to avoid potential disruptions to folding. This is limiting, as it is advantageous in some applications to incorporate artificial connectivity at buried sites. Here, we report an examination of protein backbone modification targeted specifically to hydrophobic core positions and its impacts on tertiary folded structure and fold stability. Different artificial monomer types are placed at core, core-flanking, or solvent-exposed positions in a compact three-helix protein. Effects on structure and folding energetics are assessed by NMR spectroscopy and biophysical methods. Results show that artificial residues can be well accommodated in the hydrophobic core of a defined tertiary fold, with effects on stability only modestly larger than identical changes at solvent-exposed sites. Collectively, these results provide new insights into folding behavior of protein-like artificial chains as well as strategies for the design of such molecules.

ABSTRACT

Sequence-encoded protein folding is a ubiquitous biological process that has been successfully engineered in a range of oligomeric molecules with artificial backbone chemical connectivity. A remarkable aspect of protein folding is the contrast between the rapid rates at which most sequences in nature fold and the vast number of conformational states possible in an unfolded chain with hundreds of rotatable bonds. Research efforts spanning several decades have sought to elucidate the fundamental chemical principles that dictate the speed and mechanism of natural protein folding. In contrast, little is known about how protein mimetic entities transition between an unfolded and folded state. Here, we report effects of altered backbone connectivity on the folding kinetics and mechanism of the B domain of Staphylococcal protein A (BdpA), an ultrafast-folding sequence. A combination of experimental biophysical analysis and atomistic molecular dynamics simulations performed on the prototype protein and several heterogeneous-backbone variants reveal the interplay among backbone flexibility, folding rates, and structural details of the transition state ensemble. Collectively, these findings suggest a significant degree of plasticity in the mechanisms that can give rise to ultrafast folding in the BdpA sequence and provide atomic level insights into how protein mimetic chains adopt an ordered folded state.

ABSTRACT

Chemical modifications of long-lived proteins, such as isomerization and epimerization, have been evoked as prime triggers for protein-damage related diseases. Deamidation of Asn residues, which results in formation of a mixture of l- and d-Asp and isoAsp via an intermediate aspartyl succinimide, can result in the disruption of cellular proteostasis and toxic protein depositions. In contrast to extensive data on the biological prevalence and functional implications of aspartyl succinimide formation, much less is known about the impact of the resulting altered backbone composition on properties of individual proteins at a molecular level. Here, we report the total chemical synthesis, biophysical characterization, and NMR structural analysis of a series of variants of the B1 domain of protein G from Streptococcal bacteria (GB1) in which all possible Asp isomers as well as an aspartyl succinimide were individually incorporated at a defined position in a solvent-exposed loop. Subtle local structural effects were observed; however, these were accompanied by notable differences in thermodynamic folded stability. Surprisingly, the noncanonical backbone connectivity of d-isoAsp led to a variant that exhibited enhanced stability relative to the natural protein.

ABSTRACT

The construction of protein-sized synthetic chains that blend natural amino acids with artificial monomers to create so-called heterogeneous-backbones is a powerful approach to generate complex folds and functions from bio-inspired agents. A variety of techniques from structural biology commonly used to study natural proteins have been adapted to investigate folding in these entities. In NMR characterization of proteins, proton chemical shift is a straightforward to acquire, information-rich metric that bears directly on a variety of properties related to folding. Leveraging chemical shift to gain insight into folding requires a set of reference chemical shift values corresponding to each building block type (i.e., the 20 canonical amino acids in the case of natural proteins) in a random coil state and knowledge of systematic changes in chemical shift associated with particular folded conformations. Although well documented for natural proteins, these issues remain unexplored in the context of protein mimetics. Here, we report random coil chemical shift values for a library of artificial amino acid monomers frequently used to construct heterogeneous-backbone protein analogues as well as a spectroscopic signature associated with one monomer class, ß3-residues bearing proteinogenic side chains, adopting a helical folded conformation. Collectively, these results will facilitate the continued utilization of NMR for the study of structure and dynamics in protein-like artificial backbones.

ABSTRACT

Strategic incorporation of achiral Cα,α-dialkylated amino acids with bulky substituents into peptides can be used to promote extended strand conformations and inhibit protein-protein interactions associated with amyloid formation. In this work, we evaluate the thermodynamic impact of chiral Cα,α monomers on folding preferences in such systems through introduction of a series of Cα-methylated and Cα-ethylated residues into a ß-hairpin host sequence. Depending on stereochemical configuration of the artificial monomer and potential for additional hydrophobic packing, a Cα-ethyl-Cα-propyl glycine residue can provide similar or enhanced folded stability relative to an achiral Cα,α-diethyl analogue.

ABSTRACT

The importance of ß-turns to protein folding has motivated extensive efforts to stabilize the motif with non-canonical backbone connectivity. Prior work has focused almost exclusively on turns between strands in a ß-sheet (i. e., hairpins). Turns in other structural contexts are also common in nature and have distinct conformational preferences; however, design principles for their mimicry remain poorly understood. Here, we report strategies that stabilize non-hairpin ß-turns through systematic evaluation of the impacts of backbone alteration on the high-resolution folded structure and folded stability of a helix-loop-helix prototype protein. Several well-established hairpin turn mimetics are shown detrimental to folded stability and/or hydrophobic core packing, while less-explored modification schemes that reinforce alternate turn types lead to improved stability and more faithful structural mimicry. Collectively, these results have implications in control over protein folding through chemical modification as well as the design of protein mimetics.

ABSTRACT

Sequence-encoded folding is the foundation of protein structure and is also possible in synthetic chains of artificial chemical composition. In natural proteins, the characteristics of the unfolded state are as important as those of the folded state in determining folding energetics. While much is known about folded structures adopted by artificial protein-like chains, corresponding information about the unfolded states of these molecules is lacking. Here, we report the consequences of altered backbone composition on the structure, stability, and dynamics of the folded and unfolded states of a compact helix-rich protein. Characterization through a combination of biophysical experiments and atomistic simulation reveals effects of backbone modification that depend on both the type of artificial monomers employed and where they are applied in sequence. In general, introducing artificial connectivity in a way that reinforces characteristics of the unfolded state ensemble of the prototype natural protein minimizes the impact of chemical changes on folded stability. These findings have implications in the design of protein mimetics and provide an atomically detailed picture of the unfolded state of a natural protein and artificial analogues under non-denaturing conditions.

ABSTRACT

The emergence of resistance to clinically used antibiotics by bacteria presents a significant problem in public health. Natural antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are a valuable source of antibiotics that act by a mechanism less prone to the evolutionary development of resistance. In an effort to realize the promise of AMPs while overcoming limitations such as poor biostability, researchers have sought sequence-defined oligomers with artificial amide-based backbones that show membrane-disrupting functions similar to natural agents. Most of this precedent has focused on short peptidomimetic analogues of unstructured chains or secondary folds; however, the natural antimicrobial arsenal includes a number of small- and medium-sized proteins that act via an ordered tertiary structure. Generating proteomimetic analogues of these scaffolds poses a challenge due to the increased complexity of the target for mimicry. Here, we report the development of heterogeneous-backbone variants of lasiocepsin, a 27-residue disulfide-rich AMP found in bee venom that adopts a compact tertiary fold. Iterative cycles of design, synthesis, and biological evaluation yielded analogues of the natural domain with ∼30 to 40% artificial backbone content, comparable antibacterial activity, reduced host cell toxicity, and improved stability to proteolytic degradation. High-resolution structures determined for several variants by NMR provide insights into the interplay among backbone composition, tertiary fold, and biological properties. Collectively, the results reported here broaden the scope of protein functional mimicry by artificial backbone analogues of tertiary folding patterns and suggest protein backbone engineering as a means to tune protein function by exerting site-specific control over protein folded structure.

ABSTRACT

Recent years have seen a growing number of examples of designed oligomeric molecules with artificial backbone connectivity that are capable of adopting complex folded tertiary structures analogous to those seen in natural proteins. A range of experimental techniques from structural biology and biophysics have been brought to bear in the study of these proteomimetic agents. Here, we discuss some considerations encountered in the characterization of high-resolution folded structure as well as folding thermodynamics of protein-like artificial backbones. We provide an overview of the use of X-ray crystallography and NMR spectroscopy in such systems and review example applications of these methods in the primary literature. Further, we provide detailed protocols for two experiments that have proved useful in our prior and ongoing efforts to compare folding thermodynamics between natural protein domains and heterogeneous-backbone counterparts.

ABSTRACT

Sequence-defined oligomeric molecules with discrete folding propensities, termed foldamers, are a versatile source of agents with tailored structure and function. An inspiration for the development of the foldamer paradigm are natural biomacromolecules, the sequence-encoded folding of which is the basis of life. Metal ions and clusters are common features in proteins, where the role of metal varies from supporting structure to enabling function. The ubiquity of metals in natural systems suggests promise for metals in the context of folded artificial backbones. In this Minireview, we highlight efforts to realize this potential through a survey of published work on the design, synthesis, and characterization of metal-binding foldamers.

ABSTRACT

There is a need to develop at-home phenylalanine (Phe) test kits, analogous to home glucose meters, for phenylketonuria patients who must measure their blood Phe levels frequently to adjust their diet. Unfortunately, such test kits are not available yet because of the lack of simple and inexpensive Phe-sensing elements. With the goal of developing a Phe-sensing element, we fabricated two-dimensional photonic crystal (2DPC) hydrogels that quantify human serum phenylpyruvate (PhPY), which is the product of the reaction between Phe and the enzyme phenylalanine dehydrogenase. The PhPY-sensing hydrogels have oxyamine recognition groups that link PhPY to the hydrogel polymer network via chemoselective oxime ligation. This structural modification induces the hydrogel to swell, which then increases interparticle spacings within the embedded 2DPC. The PhPY-induced particle spacing changes are measured from light diffraction and used to quantify the PhPY concentrations. The estimated limit of detection of PhPY in human serum for a detection time of 30 min is 19 µM, which is comparable to the minimum blood Phe concentrations of healthy people. Besides the potential application for developing Phe-sensing elements, this new hydrogel sensing approach via chemoselective oxime ligation is generalizable to the development of other chemical sensors working in complex biological environments.

ABSTRACT

Proteins have evolved as a variable platform that provides access to molecules with diverse shapes, sizes and functions. These features have inspired chemists for decades to seek artificial mimetics of proteins with improved or novel properties. Such work has focused primarily on small protein fragments, often isolated secondary structures; however, there has lately been a growing interest in the design of artificial molecules that mimic larger, more complex tertiary folds. In this Perspective, we define these agents as 'proteomimetics' and discuss the recent advances in the field. Proteomimetics can be divided into three categories: protein domains with side-chain functionality that alters the native linear-chain topology; protein domains in which the chemical composition of the polypeptide backbone has been partially altered; and protein-like folded architectures that are composed entirely of non-natural monomer units. We give an overview of these proteomimetic approaches and outline remaining challenges facing the field.

ABSTRACT

We present a new force field, AMBER ff15ipq-m, for simulations of protein mimetics in applications from therapeutics to biomaterials. This force field is an expansion of the AMBER ff15ipq force field that was developed for canonical proteins and enables the modeling of four classes of artificial backbone units that are commonly used alongside natural α residues in blended or "heterogeneous" backbones: chirality-reversed D-α-residues, the Cα-methylated α-residue Aib, homologated ß-residues (ß3) bearing proteinogenic side chains, and two cyclic ß residues (ßcyc; APC and ACPC). The ff15ipq-m force field includes 472 unique atomic charges and 148 unique torsion terms. Consistent with the AMBER IPolQ lineage of force fields, the charges were derived using the Implicitly Polarized Charge (IPolQ) scheme in the presence of explicit solvent. To our knowledge, no general force field reported to date models the combination of artificial building blocks examined here. In addition, we have derived Karplus coefficients for the calculation of backbone amide J-coupling constants for ß3Ala and ACPC ß residues. The AMBER ff15ipq-m force field reproduces experimentally observed J-coupling constants in simple tetrapeptides and maintains the expected conformational propensities in reported structures of proteins/peptides containing the artificial building blocks of interest-all on the µs timescale. These encouraging results demonstrate the power and robustness of the IPolQ lineage of force fields in modeling the structure and dynamics of natural proteins as well as mimetics with protein-inspired artificial backbones in atomic detail.

ABSTRACT

The mimicry of protein tertiary folds by chains artificial in backbone chemical composition leads to proteomimetic analogues with potential utility as bioactive agents and as tools to shed light on biomacromolecule behavior. Notable successes toward such molecules have been achieved; however, as protein structural diversity is vast, design principles must be continually honed as they are applied to new prototype folding patterns. One specific structure where a gap remains in understanding how to effectively generate modified backbone analogues is the metal-binding ß-turn found in zinc finger domains. Literature precedent suggests several factors that may act in concert, including the artificial moiety used to modify the turn, the sequence in which it is applied, and modifications present elsewhere in the domain. Here, we report efforts to gain insights into these issues and leverage these insights to construct a zinc finger mimetic with backbone modifications throughout its constituent secondary structures. We first conduct a systematic comparison of four turn mimetics in a common host sequence, quantifying relative efficacy for use in a metal-binding context. We go on to construct a proteomimetic zinc finger domain in which the helix, strands, and turn are simultaneously modified, resulting in a variant with 23% artificial residues, a tertiary fold indistinguishable from the prototype, and a folded stability comparable to the natural backbone on which the variant is based. Collectively, the results reported provide new insights into the effects of backbone modification on structure and stability of metal-binding domains and help inform the design of metalloprotein mimetics.

ABSTRACT

Protein-protein interactions mediated by methyllysine are ubiquitous in biological systems. Specific perturbation of such interactions has remained a challenging endeavor. Herein, we describe an allele-specific strategy toward an engineered protein-protein interface orthogonal to the human proteome. We develop a methyltransferase (writer) variant that installs aryllysine moiety on histones that can only be recognized by an engineered chromodomain (reader). We establish biochemical integrity of the engineered interface, provide structural evidence for orthogonality and validate its applicability to identify transcriptional regulators. Our approach provides an unprecedented strategy for specific manipulation of the methyllysine interactome.

ABSTRACT

Metal-binding peptides are versatile building blocks in supramolecular chemistry. We recently reported a class of crystalline materials formed through a combination of coiled-coil peptide self-association and metal coordination. Here, we probe the serendipitously discovered metal binding motif that drives the assembly and apply these insights to exert rational control over structure and morphology in the materials.

ABSTRACT

Ubiquitin (Ub) plays critical roles in myriad protein degradation and signaling networks in the cell. We report herein Ub mimetics based on backbones that blend natural and artificial amino acid units. The variants were prepared by a modular route based on native chemical ligation. Biological assays show that some are enzymatically polymerized onto protein substrates, and that the resulting Ub tags are recognized for downstream pathways. These results advance the size and complexity of folded proteins mimicked by artificial backbones and expand the functional scope of such agents.

ABSTRACT

We report a new methodology for the electromechanical characterization of organic monolayers based on the implementation of dual AC resonance tracking piezo force microscopy (DART-PFM) combined with a sweep of an applied DC field under a fixed AC field. This experimental design allows calibration of the electrostatic component of the tip response and enables the use of low spring constant levers in the measurement. Moreover, the technique is shown to determine both positive and negative piezo response. The successful decoupling of the electrostatic component from the mechanical response will enable more quantitative electromechanical characterization of molecular and biomaterials and should generate new design principles for soft bio-compatible piezoactive materials. To highlight the applicability, our new methodology was used to successfully characterize the piezoelectric coefficient (d 33) of a variety of piezoactive materials, including self-assembled monolayers made of small molecules (dodecane thiol, mercaptoundecanoic acid) or macromolecules (peptides, peptoids), as well as a variety of inorganic materials, including lead zirconate titanate [PZT], quartz, and periodically poled lithium niobate [PPLN]. Due to high differential capacitance, the soft organic monolayers demonstrated exceedingly large electromechanical response (as high as 250 pm V-1) but smaller d 33 piezocoefficients. Finally, we find that the capacitive electrostatic response of the organic monolayers studied are significantly larger than conventional inorganic piezoelectric materials (e.g., PZT, PPLN, quartz), suggesting organic electromechanical materials applications can successfully draw from both piezo and electrostatic responses.

ABSTRACT

Disulfide-rich peptides have found widespread use in the development of bioactive agents; however, low proteolytic stability and the difficulty of exerting synthetic control over chain topology present barriers to their application in some systems. Herein, we report a method that enables the creation of artificial backbone ("foldamer") mimics of compact, disulfide-rich tertiary folds. Systematic replacement of a subset of natural α-residues with various artificial building blocks in the context of a computationally designed prototype sequence leads to "heterogeneous-backbone" variants that undergo clean oxidative folding, adopt tertiary structures indistinguishable from that of the prototype, and enjoy proteolytic protection beyond that inherent to the topologically constrained scaffold. Collectively, these results demonstrate systematic backbone substitution to be a viable method to engineer the properties of disulfide-rich sequences and expands the repertoire of protein mimicry by foldamers to an exciting new structural class.

ABSTRACT

The prospect of recreating the complex structural hierarchy of protein folding in synthetic oligomers with backbones that are artificial in covalent structure ("foldamers") has long fascinated chemists. Foldamers offer complex functions from biostable scaffolds and have found widespread applications in fields from biomedical to materials science. Most precedent has focused on isolated secondary structures or their assemblies. In considering the goal of complex protein-like tertiary folding patterns, a key barrier became apparent. How does one design a backbone with covalent connectivity and a sequence of side-chain functional groups that will support defined intramolecular packing of multiple artificial secondary structures? Two developments were key to overcoming this challenge. First was the recognition of the power of blending α-amino acid residues with monomers differing in backbone connectivity to create "heterogeneous-backbone" foldamers. Second was the finding that replacing some of the natural α-residues in a biological sequence with artificial-backbone variants can result in a mimic that retains both the fold and function of the native sequence and, in some cases, gains advantageous characteristics. Taken together, these precedents lead to a view of a protein as chemical entity having two orthogonal sequences: a sequence of side-chain functional groups and a separate sequence of backbone units displaying those functional groups. In this Account, we describe our lab's work over the last ∼10 years to leverage the above concept of protein sequence duality in order to develop design principles for constructing heterogeneous-backbone foldamers that adopt complex protein-like tertiary folds. Fundamental to the approach is the utilization of a variety of artificial building blocks (e.g., d-α-residues, Cα-Me-α-residues, N-Me-α-residues, ß-residues, γ-residues, δ-residues, polymer segments) in concert, replacing a fraction of α-residues in a given prototype sequence. We provide an overview of the state-of-the-art in terms of design principles for choosing substitutions based on consideration of local secondary structure and retention of key side-chain functional groups. We survey high-resolution structures of backbone-modified proteins to illustrate how diverse artificial moieties are accommodated in tertiary fold contexts. We detail efforts to elucidate how backbone alteration impacts folding thermodynamics and describe how such data informs the development of improved design rules. Collectively, a growing body of results by our lab and others spanning multiple protein systems suggests there is a great deal of plasticity with respect to the backbone chemical structures upon which sequence-encoded tertiary folds can manifest. Moreover, these efforts suggest sequence-guided backbone alteration as a broadly applicable strategy for generating foldamers with complex tertiary folding patterns. We conclude by offering some perspective regarding the near future of this field, in terms of unanswered questions, technological needs, and opportunities for new areas of inquiry.
