`Chapter 7 Protein Function

`
`The class I MHC protein—peptide complexes on infected cells are rec-
`ognized as foreign and bound by those T,, cells with T-cell receptors having
`the appropriate binding specificity. The T-cell receptors respond only to
`peptide antigens that are complexed to class | MHC proteins. The T; cells
`have an additional receptor, CD8, also called a coreceptor, that enhances
`the binding interactions of T-cell receptors and MHCproteins (Fig. 7-22,
`middle left). The T, cells live up to the namekiller T cells by destroying the
`virally infected cell to which they are complexed through their T-cell re-
`ceptors. Cell death is brought about by a number of mechanisms, not all
`well understood. One mechanism involves the release of a protein called
`perforin, which binds to and aggregates in the plasma membraneof the
`target cell, forming molecular pores that destroy the capacity of that cell
`to regulate its interior environment. T, cells also induce a process called
`programmed cell death, or apoptosis (most commonly pronounced
`app’-a-toe’-sis), in which the cells complexed to T, cells undergo metabolic
`changes that rapidly lead to the demise of the cell.
`T. cells with the proper specificity must proliferate selectively if large
`numbers of virus-infected cells are to be destroyed. To this end, Te cells
`complexed to an infected cell generate cell-surface receptors for signaling
`proteins called interleukins. Interleukins, secreted by a variety of cells,
`stimulate the proliferation of only those T and B cells bearing the required
`interleukin receptors. Because T and B cells produceinterleukin receptors
`only when they are complexed with an antigen, the only immune system
`cells that proliferate are those few that can respond to the antigen. The
`process of producing a population of cells by stimulated reproduction of a
`particular ancestorcell is called clonal selection.
`The peptides complexed to class II MHC proteins and displayed on the
`surface of macrophages and B lymphocytes are similarly bound by the ap-
`propriate T-cell receptors of T,, cells. The T} cells also have a coreceptor,
`called CD4, that enhances the binding interactions of the T-cell receptors.
`This overall binding interaction, in concert with secondary molecularsig-
`nals that are currently being identified, activates the T,, cells. A subpopula-
`tion of activated T,, cells secrete a small signal protein called interleukin-2
`(IL-2; M, 15,000), which stimulates proliferation of nearby T, cells and Ty
`cells having the appropriate interleukin receptors. This greatly increases
`the numberof available immune system cells capable of recognizing and re-
`sponding to the antigen. Another subpopulation of activated T, cells com-
`plexed to macrophages or B lymphocytes secrete interleukin-4 (IL-4; /,
`20,000), which stimulates the proliferation of B cells that recognize the
`antigen (Fig. 7-22, bottom right). Proliferation of the responding B, Ty, and
`Ty cells continues as long as the appropriate antigen is present.
`The proliferating B cells promote the destruction of any extracellular
`viruses or bacterial cells. They first secrete large amounts of soluble anti-
`body that binds to the antigen. This bound antibody recruits a cellular sys-
`tem of about 20 proteins collectively called complement because they com-
`plement and enhancethe actionof the antibodies. The complement proteins
`disrupt the coats of many virusesor, in bacterial infections, produce holes in
`the cell walls of bacteria, causing them to swell and burst by osmotic shock.
`Unlike T cells, B cells do not undergo selection in the thymusto elimi-
`nate those producing antibodies that recognize host (self) proteins. How-
`ever, B cells do not contribute significantly to an immune response unless
`they are stimulated to proliferate by T,, cells. The T, cells do undergo se-
`lection in the thymus, leaving no T, cells capable of stimulating B cells that
`produce antibodies potentially dangerous to the host.
`The Ty cells themselves participate only indirectly in the destruction of
`infected cells and pathogens, buttheir role is critical to the entire immune

`response. This is dramatically illustrated by the epidemic produced by HIV
`(human immunodeficiency virus), the virus that causes AIDS (acquired im-
`mune deficiency syndrome). The primary targets of HIV infection are Ty
`cells. Elimination of these cells progressively incapacitates the entire im-
`mune system.
`Once antigen is depleted,activated immunecells generally die in a mat-
`ter of days by programmed cell death. However, a few of the stimulated B
`and T cells mature into memory cells. These are long-lived cells that do
`notparticipate directly in the primary immune response when the antigen
`is first encountered. Instead they become permanentresidentsof the blood,
`ready to respond to a reappearance of the same antigen. Memory cells,
`when subsequently challenged by the antigen, can mount a secondary im-
`mune response that is generally much more rapid and vigorous than the
`primary response because of prior clonal expansion. By this mechanism,
`vertebrates once exposed to a virus or other pathogen can respond quickly
`to the pathogen when exposed again. This is the basis of the long-term im-
`munity conferred by vaccines and the natural immunity to repeated infec-
`tions by the samestrain of a virus.
`
`Antibodies Have Two Identical Antigen-Binding Sites
`Immunoglobulin G (IgG) is the major class of antibody molecule and one
`of the most abundantproteins in the blood serum. IgG has four polypeptide
`chains: two large ones, called heavy chains, and twolight chains, linked by
`noncovalent and disulfide bonds into a complex of M, 150,000. The heavy
`chains of an IgG molecule interact at one end, then branch to interact sep-
`arately with the light chains, forming a Y-shaped molecule (Fig. 7-23). At
`the “hinges” separating the base of an IgG molecule fromits branches, the
`immunoglobulin can be cleaved with proteases. Cleavage with the protease
`papain liberates the basal fragment, called Fe becauseit usually crystallizes
`readily, and the two branches, which are called Fab, the antigen-binding
`
`fragments, Each branchhas a single antigen-bindingsite.

`
`The fundamental structure of immunoglobulins wasfirst established by
`Gerald Edelman and Rodney Porter. Each chain is made up of identifiable
`domains; some are constant in sequence andstructure from one IgG to the
`next, others are variable. The constant domains have a characteristic struc-
`ture known as the immunoglobulin fold, a well-conserved structural mo-
`tif in the all-@ class. There are three of these constant domains in each
`heavy chain and onein each light chain. The heavy and light chains also
`have one variable domain each, in which most of the variability in amino
`acid residue sequenceis found. The variable domains associate to create
`the antigen-binding site (Fig. 7-24).

`In many vertebrates, IgG is only oneoffive classes of immunoglobulins.
`Each class has a characteristic type of heavy chain, denoted a, 6, e, y, and
`uw for IgA, IgD, IgE, IgG, and IgM, respectively. Two types of light chain,
`x and X, occur in all classes of immunoglobulins. The overall structures of
`IgD and IgE are similar to that of IgG. IgM occurs in either a monomeric,
`membrane-bound form or a secreted form that is a cross-linked pentamer
`of this basic structure (Fig. 7-25). IgA, found principally in secretions such
`as saliva, tears, and milk, can be a monomer, dimer, or trimer. [gM is the first
`antibody to be made by B lymphocytes and is the major antibody in the
`early stages of a primary immuneresponse. Some B cells soon begin to pro-
`duce IgD (with the same antigen-binding site as the IgM produced by the
`same cell), but the unique function of IgD is less clear.

`
`The IgG described aboveis the major antibody in secondary immunere-
`sponses, which are initiated by memory B cells. As part of the organism's
`ongoing immunity to antigens already encountered and dealt with, IgG is
`the most abundant immunoglobulin in the blood. When IgG binds to an in-
`vading bacterium or virus, it not only activates the complement system, but
`also activates certain leukocytes such as macrophagesto engulf and destroy
`the invader. Yet anotherclass of receptors onthecell surface of macrophages
`recognizes and binds the Fc region of IgG. When these Fc receptors bind an
`antibody-pathogen complex,
`the macrophage engulfs the complex by
`phagocytosis (Fig. 7-26).

`IgE plays an importantrole in the allergic response,interacting with ba-
`sophils (phagocytic leukocytes) in the blood and histamine-secreting cells
`called mast cells that are widely distributed in tissues. This immunoglobu-
`lin binds, throughits Fe region, to special Fc receptors on the basophils or
`mast cells. In this form, IgE serves as a kind of receptor for antigen.If anti-
`gen is bound,the cells are induced to secrete histamine and otherbiologi-
`cally active amines that cause dilation and increased permeability of blood
`vessels. These effects on the blood vessels are thought to facilitate the
`movement of immune system cells and proteins to sites of inflammation.
`They also produce the symptoms normally associated with allergies. Pollen
`or other allergens are recognizedas foreign, triggering an immune response
`normally reserved for pathogens.
`
`Antibodies Bind Tightly and Specifically to Antigen
`The binding specificity of an antibody is determined by the amino acid
`residuesin the variable domainsof its heavy and light chains. Many residues
`in these domains are variable, but not equally so. Some, particularly those
`lining the antigen-bindingsite, are hypervariable—especially likely to differ.
`Specificity is conferred by chemical complementarity between the antigen
`and its specific bindingsite, in terms of shape andthe location of charged,
`nonpolar, and hydrogen-bonding groups. For example, a bindingsite with a
`negatively charged group may bind an antigen with a positive charge in the
`complementary position. In many instances, complementarity is achieved
`interactively as the structures of antigen and binding site are influenced by
`each other during the approach of the ligand. Conformational changes in
`the antibody and/or the antigen then occur that allow the complementary
`groupsto interact fully. This is an example of inducedfit (Fig. 7-27).

`A typical antibody-antigen interaction is quite strong, characterized by
`K, values as low as 10°"” m (recall that a lower K, corresponds to a stronger
`binding interaction). The Ky reflects the energy derived from the various
`ionic, hydrogen-bonding, hydrophobic, and van der Waals interactions that
`stabilize the binding. The binding energy required to produce a Ky of 107" m
`is about 65 kJ/mol.
`A complex of a peptide derived from HIV (a model antigen) and an Fab
`molecule illustrates some of these properties (Fig. 7-27). The changes in
`structure observed on antigen binding are particularly striking in this example.

`
`The Antibody-Antigen Interaction Is the Basis for a Variety
`of Important Analytical Procedures
`The extraordinary binding affinity and specificity of antibodies makes them
`valuable analytical reagents. Two types of antibody preparations are in use:
`polyclonal and monoclonal. Polyclonal antibodies are those produced by
`many different B lymphocytes responding to one antigen, such as a protein
`injected into an animal. Cells in the population of B lymphocytes produce
`antibodies that bind specific, different epitopes within the antigen. Thus,
`polyclonal preparations contain a mixture of antibodies that recognize dif-
`ferent parts of the protein. Monoclonal antibodies, in contrast, are syn-
`thesized by a population ofidentical B cells (a clone) grown in cell culture.
`These antibodies are homogeneous,all recognizing the same epitope. The
`techniques for producing monoclonal antibodies were developed by
`Georges Kohler and Cesar Milstein.
`The specificity of antibodies has practical uses. A selected antibody can
`be covalently attached to a resin and used in a chromatography column of
`the type shown in Figure 5—18c. When a mixture of proteinsis addedto the
`column,the antibody will specifically bind its target protein and retain it on
`the column while other proteins are washed through. The target protein can
`then be eluted from theresin by a salt solution or some other agent. This is
`a powerful tool for protein purification.
`In another versatile analytical technique, an antibody is attached to a
`radioactive label or some other reagent that makes it easy to detect. When
`the antibody binds the target protein, the label reveals the presence of the
`protein in a solution or its location in a gel or evenaliving cell. Several
`Cesar Milstein
`variations of this procedure are illustrated in Figure 7-28.

`An ELISA (enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay) allows for rapid
`screening and quantification of the presence of an antigen in a sample (Fig.
`7-28b). Proteins in a sample are adsorbed to an inert surface, usually a
`96-well polystyrene plate. The surface is washed with a solution of an inex-
`pensive nonspecific protein (often casein from nonfat dry milk powder) to
`block proteins in subsequentsteps from also adsorbing to these surfaces. The
`surface is then treated with a solution containing the primary antibody—
`an antibody against the protein of interest. Unbound antibody is washed
`away and the surfaceis treated with a solution containing antibodies against
`the primary antibody. These secondary antibodies have been linked to an
`enzyme that catalyzes a reaction that forms a colored product. After un-
`bound secondary antibody is washed away, the substrate of the antibody-
`linked enzyme is added. Product formation (monitored as color intensity)
`is proportional to the concentration of the proteinof interest in the sample.
`In an immunoblot assay (Fig. 7-28c), proteins that have been sepa-
`rated bygel electrophoresis are transferred electrophoretically to a nitro-
`cellulose membrane. The membrane is blocked (as described above for
`ELISA), then treated successively with primary antibody, secondary anti-
`body linked to enzyme, and substrate. A colored precipitate forms only
`along the band containing the protein of interest. The immunoblot allows

`
`Protein Interactions Modulated by Chemical Energy:
`Actin, Myosin, and Molecular Motors
`Organisms move. Cells move. Organelles and macromolecules within cells
`move. Most of these movements arise from the activity of the fascinating
`class of protein-based molecular motors. Fueled by chemical energy, usually
`derived from ATP, large aggregates of motor proteins undergo cyclic con-
`formational changes that accumulate into a unified, directional force—the
`tiny force that pulls apart chromosomes in a dividing cell, and the immense
`force that levers a pouncing, quarter-ton jungle cat into the air.
`The interactions among motor proteins, as you might predict, feature
`complementary arrangements of ionic, hydrogen-bonding, hydrophobic,
`and van der Waals interactions at protein binding sites. In motor proteins,
`however, these interactions achieve exceptionally high levels of spatial and
`temporal organization.
`Motor proteins underlie the contraction of muscles, the migration ofor-
`ganelles along microtubules, the rotation of bacterial flagella, and the move-
`ment of some proteins along DNA. As we noted in Chapter2, proteins called
`kinesins and dyneins move along microtubules in cells, pulling along or-
`ganelles or reorganizing chromosomesduring cell division (see Fig. 2-19).
`An interaction of dynein with microtubules brings about the motion of eu-
`karyotic flagella andcilia. Flagellar motion in bacteria involves a complex
`rotational motor at the base of the flagellum (see Fig. 19-32). Helicases,
`polymerases, and other proteins move along DNA as they carry out their
`functions in DNA metabolism (Chapter 25). Here, we focus on the well-
`studied example of the contractile proteins of vertebrate skeletal muscle as
`a paradigm for how proteins translate chemical energy into motion.
`
`The Major Proteins of Muscle Are Myosin and Actin
`The contractile force of muscle is generated by the interaction of two proteins,
`myosin and actin. These proteins are arranged in filaments that undergo
`transient interactions and slide past each other to bring about contraction.
`Together, actin and myosin make up over 80% of the protein mass of muscle.
`Myosin (, 540,000) has six subunits: two heavy chains (M, 220,000)
`and four light chains (M, 20,000). The heavy chains account for much of
`the overall structure. At their carboxyl termini, they are arranged as ex-
`tended @ helices, wrapped around each other in a fibrous, left-handed
`coiled coil similar to that of a-keratin (Fig. 7-29a). At its amino termini,
`each heavy chain hasa large globular domain containing a site where ATP
`is hydrolyzed. The light chains are associated with the globular domains.

`Structure and Catalysis
`
`When myosin is treated briefly with the protease trypsin, much of the fi-
`broustail is cleaved off, dividing the protein into componentscalled light
`and heavy meromyosin (Fig. 7-29b). The globular domain, called myosin
`subfragment 1, or S1, or simply the myosin head group, is liberated from
`heavy meromyosin by cleavage with papain. The S1 fragment produced by
`this procedureis the motor domain that makes muscle contraction possible.
`S1 fragments can be crystallized, and their structure has been determined,
`The overall structure of the S1 fragment as determined by Ivan Rayment
`and Hazel Holdenis shown in Figure 7-29c.
`In muscle cells, molecules of myosin aggregate to form structures called
`thick filaments (Fig. 7-30a). These rodlike structures serve as the core of
`the contractile unit. Within a thick filament, several hundred myosin mole-
`cules are arranged with their fibrous “tails” associated to form a long bipo-
`lar structure. The globular domains project from either end of this struc-
`ture, in regular stacked arrays.
`The second major muscle protein, actin, is abundantin almost all eu-
`karyotic cells. In muscle, molecules of monomeric actin, called G-actin
`(globular actin; M, 42,000), associate to form a long polymer called F-actin
`(filamentousactin). The thin filament (Fig. 7-30b) consists of F-actin,
`along with the proteins troponin and tropomyosin. The filamentous parts of
`thin filaments assemble as successive monomeric actin molecules add to
`one end. On addition, each monomerbinds ATP, then hydrolyzes it to ADP,
`so all actin molecules in the filament are complexed to ADP. However, this
`ATP hydrolysis by actin functions only in the assembly ofthe filaments; it
`does not contribute directly to the energy expended in muscle contraction.
`Each actin monomerin the thin filament can bindtightly and specifically to
`one myosin head group (Fig. 7—30c).

`thick and thin filaments, which are aligned and partially overlapping. The I
`band is the region of the bundle that in cross section would contain only
`thin filaments. The darker A band stretches the length of the thick filament
`and includes the region where parallel thick and thin filaments overlap. Bi-
`secting the I band is a thin structure called the Z disk, perpendicular to the
`thin filaments and serving as an anchor to which the thin filaments are at-
`tached. The A bandtoo is bisected by a thin line, the M line or M disk, a
`region of high electron density in the middle of the thick filaments. The en-
`tire contractile unit, consisting of bundles of thick filaments interleaved at
`either end with bundles of thin filaments, is called the sarcomere. The
`arrangement of interleaved bundles allows the thick and thin filaments to
`slide past each other (by a mechanismdiscussed below), causing a pro-
`gressive shortening of each sarcomere (Fig. 7-32).
`The thin actin filaments are attached at one end to the Z disk in a reg-
`ular pattern. The assembly includes the minor muscle proteins e-actinin,
`desmin, and vimentin. Thin filaments also contain a large protein called
`nebulin (~7,000 amino acid residues), thought to be structured as an
`a helix long enough to span the length of the filament. The Mline similarly

`Muscle contraction. Thick filaments are bipolar struc-
`tures created by the association of many myosin mole-
`cules. (a) Muscle contraction occurs by the sliding of the
`thick and thin filaments past each other so that the Z
`disks in neighboring | bands approach each other.

`organizes the thick filaments. It contains the proteins paramyosin, C-pro-
`tein, and M-protein. Another class of proteins called titins, the largest
`known single polypeptide chains (the titin of human cardiac muscle has
`26,926 amino acid residues), link the thick filaments to the Z disk, providing
`additional organization to the overall structure. Among their structural
`functions, the proteins nebulin and titin are believed to act as “molecular
`rulers,” regulating the length of the thin and thick filaments, respectively.
`Titin extends from the Z disk to the M line, regulating the length of the sar-
`comere itself and preventing overextension of the muscle. The characteris-
`tic sarcomere length varies from one muscle tissue to the next in a verte-
`brate organism, attributed in large part to the expression of different titin
`variants.

`Myosin Thick Filaments Slide along Actin Thin Filaments
`The interaction between actin and myosin, like that betweenall proteins
`and ligands, involves weak bonds. When ATP is not bound to myosin, a face
`on the myosin head group bindstightly to actin (Fig. 7-33). When ATP binds
`to myosin and is hydrolyzed to ADP and phosphate, a coordinated and
`cyclic series of conformational changes occur in whi
