Structural highlights
FunctionPPIA_HUMAN PPIases accelerate the folding of proteins. It catalyzes the cis-trans isomerization of proline imidic peptide bonds in oligopeptides. Publication Abstract from PubMedWe have established a refined methodology for generating surface plasmon resonance sensor surfaces of recombinant his-tagged human cyclophilin-A. Our orientation-specific stabilisation approach captures his-tagged protein under 'physiological conditions' (150 mm NaCl, pH 7.5) and covalently stabilises it on Ni2+-nitrilotriacetic acid surfaces, very briefly activated for primary amine-coupling reactions, producing very stable and active surfaces (>/= 95% specific activity) of cyclophilin-A. Variation in protein concentration with the same contact time allows straightforward generation of variable density surfaces, with essentially no loss of activity, making the protocol easily adaptable for studying numerous interactions; from very small fragments, ~ 100 Da, to large protein ligands. This new method results in an increased stability and activity of the immobilised protein and allowed us to expand the thermo-kinetic analysis space, and to determine accurate and robust thermodynamic parameters for the cyclophilin-A-cyclosporin-A interaction. Furthermore, the increased sensitivity of the surface allowed identification of a new nonpeptide inhibitor of cyclophilin-A, from a screen of a fragment library. This fragment, 2,3-diaminopyridine, bound specifically with a mean affinity of 248 +/- 60 mum. The X-ray structure of this 109-Da fragment bound in the active site of cyclophilin-A was solved to a resolution of 1.25 A (PDB: 5LUD), providing new insight into the molecular details for a potential new series of nonpeptide cyclophilin-A inhibitors.
