Positional dependence of non-native polar mutations on folding of CFTR helical hairpins.
Biochim Biophys Acta. 2008 Jan;1778(1):79-87. Epub 2007 Sep 15., [PMID:17949679]

Abstract [show]
Mutations of the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) cause CF disease by altering the biosynthesis, maturation, folding and ion conductance of this protein. Our laboratory has focused on expression and structural analysis of the CFTR transmembrane (TM) domains using two-TM segments (i.e., helix-loop-helix constructs) which we term 'helical hairpins'; these represent the minimal model of tertiary contacts between two helices in a membrane. Previous studies on a library of TM3/4 hairpins of the first CFTR TM domain suggested that introduction of non-native polar residues into TM4 can compromise CFTR function through side chain-side chain H-bonding interactions with native Q207 in TM3 [Choi, M. Y., Cardarelli, L., Therien, A. G., and Deber, C. M. Non-native interhelical hydrogen bonds in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator domain modulated by polar mutations, Biochemistry 43 (2004) 8077-8083]. In the present work, we combine gel shift assays with a series of NMR experiments for comparative structural characterization of the wild type TM3/4 hairpin and its mutants V232D, I231D, Q207N/V232E. Over 95% of the backbone resonances of a 15N,13C-labelled V232D-TM3/4 construct in the membrane-mimetic environment of perfluorooctanoate (PFO) micelles were successfully assigned, and the presence and boundaries of helical segments within TM3 and TM4 were defined under these conditions. Comparative analysis of 15N and 1H chemical shift variations among HSQC spectra of WT-, V232D-, I231D- and Q207N/V232E-TM3/4 indicated that hairpin conformations vary with the position of a polar mutation (i.e., V232D and I231D vs. WT), but remain similar when hairpins with identically-positioned polar partners are compared (i.e., V232D vs. Q207N-V232E). The overall findings suggest that a polar mutation in a TM helix can potentially distort native interfacial packing determinants in membrane proteins such as CFTR, with consequences that may lead to disease.

94 Here, the double mutant Q207N/V232E migrates significantly faster than wild type, indicating that the N/E pair is likely involved in side chain-side chain interactions analogously to the Q/D pair at the corresponding positions in the TM3/4-V232D single mutant [22]. Login to comment
95 In contrast, replacement of wild type Q237 in TM4 with the non-polar Leu residue (mutant Q237L) creates a slower migrating hairpin vs. wild type (Fig. 1a), suggesting that some pre-existing inter-helical interactions - conceivably attributable to a network of H-bonding interactions - have been removed.

200 Although the NMR data reported here do not provide specific evidence for H-bond formation nor are sufficient for detailed structural characterization, one can speculate that the similarities in spectra of V232D and Q207N/V232E are the result of contacts between similar residues in the V232D mutant that can effectively be substituted by N207 and E232.

202 Conversely, this model would predict that in the case of I231D, there must be a relative reorientation by 100° of one helix with respect to the other for participation of I231D in interhelical interactions vs. either V232D or Q207N/V232E. Login to comment

209 Although hairpin constructs have degrees of conformational freedom in SDS or PFO micellar environments that would not be available to the corresponding helices embedded in an intact CFTR TM domain, our results suggest that hairpin interfaces - and possibly helix boundaries - may vary as a function of the position of a non-native polar mutation (i.e., V232D vs. I231D in TM4), and thereby indicate the susceptibility of the native protein structure to a corresponding destiny.

The cystic fibrosis V232D mutation inhibits CFTR maturation by disrupting a hydrophobic pocket rather than formation of aberrant interhelical hydrogen bonds.

Abstract [show]
Processing mutations that inhibit folding and trafficking of CFTR are the main cause of cystic fibrosis. Repair of CFTR mutants requires an understanding of the mechanisms of misfolding caused by processing mutations. Previous studies on helix-loop-helix fragments of the V232D processing mutation suggested that its mechanism was to lock transmembrane (TM) segments 3 and 4 together by a non-native hydrogen bond (Asp232(TM4)/Gln207(TM3)). Here, we performed mutational analysis to test for Asp232/Gln207 interactions in full-length CFTR. The rationale was that a V232N mutation should mimic V232D and a V232D/Q207A mutant should mature if the processing defect was caused by hydrogen bonds. We report that only Val232 mutations to charged amino acids severely blocked CFTR maturation. The V232N mutation did not mimic V232D as V232N showed 40% maturation compared to 2% for V232D. Mutation of Val232 to large nonpolar residues (Leu, Phe) had little effect. The Q207L mutation did not rescue V232D because Q207L showed about 50% maturation in the presence of corrector VX-809 while V232D/Q207A could no longer be rescued. These results suggest that V232D inhibits maturation by disrupting a hydrophobic pocket between TM segments rather than forming a non-native hydrogen bond. Disulfide cross-linking analysis of cysteines W356C(TM6) and W1145C(TM12) suggest that the V232D mutation inhibits maturation by trapping CFTR as a partially folded intermediate. Since correctors can efficiently rescue V232D CFTR, the results suggest that hydrophilic processing mutations facing a hydrophobic pocket are good candidates for rescue with pharmacological chaperones.

130 The mutants were expressed in HEK 293 cells and whole cell extracts subjected to immunoblot analysis. Fig. 3A and B shows that the expression of mutant V232E resembled that of V232D as it significantly inhibited maturation by about 40-fold (about 2% of the CFTR protein was present as the mature protein when compared to 80% for wild-type CFTR (Fig. 3)).

131 By contrast, the amount of mature protein was about 20-fold higher (about 40%) for mutants V232N and V232Q compared to V232D or V232E (Fig. 3). Login to comment
132 These results suggested that charge rather than non-native hydrogen bonds might be responsible for the severe reduction in CFTR maturation caused by the V232D or V232E mutations. Login to comment
160 We tested if mutations to Val232 that severely inhibited maturation (V232E, V232K, or V232R) could be rescued with other correctors predicted to act as pharmacological chaperones such as 4a [33], VX-809 [19], 2b [35], 5a [12], or VX-325 [36]. Login to comment

173 The V510D was particularly effective in promoting maturation of V232E in the absence of VX-809 as the level of mature protein increased from less than 5% (Fig. 4A) to about 35% in mutant V510D/V232E (Fig. 5A and B). Login to comment
174 Expression of V510D/V232E in the presence of VX-809 yielded about 70% mature protein. Login to comment
