The crystal structure of OspA mutant
Overview
Formation of a flat beta-sheet is a fundamental event in, beta-sheet-mediated protein self-assembly. To investigate the, contributions of various factors to the stability of flat beta-sheets, we, performed extensive alanine-scanning mutagenesis experiments on the, single-layer beta-sheet segment of Borrelia outer surface protein A, (OspA). This beta-sheet segment consists of beta-strands with highly, regular geometries that can serve as a building block for self-assembly., Our Ala-scanning approach is distinct from the conventional host-guest, method, in that it introduces only conservative, truncation mutations that, should minimize structural perturbation. Our results showed very weak, correlation with experimental beta-sheet propensity scales, statistical, beta-sheet propensity scales, or cross-strand pairwise correlations. In, contrast, our data showed strong positive correlation with the change in, buried non-polar surface area. Polar interactions including prominent, Glu-Lys cross-strand pairs contribute marginally to the beta-sheet, stability. These results were corroborated by results from additional, non-Ala mutations. Taken together, these results demonstrate the dominant, contribution of non-polar surface burial to flat beta-sheet stability even, at solvent-exposed positions. The OspA single-layer beta-sheet achieves, efficient hydrophobic surface burial without forming a hydrophobic core by, a strategic placement of a variety of side-chains. These findings further, suggest the importance of hydrophobic interactions within a beta-sheet, layer in peptide self-assembly.
