Crystal structure of the E7_C/Im7_C complex; a computationally designed interface between the colicin E7 DNase and the Im7 Immunity protein
Overview
We developed a 'computational second-site suppressor' strategy to redesign, specificity at a protein-protein interface and applied it to create new, specifically interacting DNase-inhibitor protein pairs. We demonstrate, that the designed switch in specificity holds in in vitro binding and, functional assays. We also show that the designed interfaces are specific, in the natural functional context in living cells, and present the first, high-resolution X-ray crystallographic analysis of a computer-redesigned, functional protein-protein interface with altered specificity. The, approach should be applicable to the design of interacting protein pairs, with novel specificities for delineating and re-engineering protein, interaction networks in living cells.
