Cím:DMSO-Induced Unfolding of the Antifungal Disulfide Protein PAF and Its Inactive Variant: A Combined NMR and DSC Study / András Czajlik, Ágnes Batta, Kinga Kerner, Ádám Fizil, Dorottya Hajdu, Mária Raics, Katalin E. Kövér, Gyula Batta

Megjegyzések:PAF and related antifungal proteins are promising antimicrobial agents. They have highly stable folds around room temperature due to the presence of 3-4 disulfide bonds. However, unfolded states persist and contribute to the thermal equilibrium in aqueous solution, and low-populated states might influence their biological impact. To explore such equilibria during dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)-induced chemical unfolding, we studied PAF and its inactive variant PAFD19S using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC). According to the NMR monitoring at 310 K, the folded structures disappear above 80 v/v% DMSO concentration, while the unfolding is completely reversible. Evaluation of a few resolved peaks from viscosity-compensated 15N-1H HSQC spectra of PAF yielded G = 23 ± 7 kJ/M as the average value for NMR unfolding enthalpy. The NMR-based structures of PAF and the mutant in 50 v/v% DMSO/H2O mixtures were more similar in the mixed solvents then they were in water. The 15N NMR relaxation dynamics in the same mixtures verified the rigid backbones of the NMR-visible fractions of the proteins; still, enhanced dynamics around the termini and some loops were observed. DSC monitoring of the Tm melting point showed parabolic dependence on the DMSO molar fraction and suggested that PAF is more stable than the inactive PAFD19S. The DSC experiments were irreversible due to the applied broad temperature range, but still suggestive of the endothermic unfolding of PAF.

Cím:Calcium binding of the antifungal protein PAF: Structure, dynamics and function aspects by NMR and MD simulations / Ádám Fizil, Christoph Sonderegger, András Czajlik, Attila Fekete, István Komáromi, Dorottya Hajdu, Florentine Marx, Gyula Batta
Dátum:2018

Megjegyzések:Calcium ions (Ca2+) play an important role in the toxicity of the cysteine-rich and cationic antifungal protein PAF from Penicillium chrysogenum: high extracellular Ca2+ levels reduce the toxicity of PAF in the sensitive model fungus Neurospora crassa in a concentration dependent way. However, little is known about the mechanistic details of the Ca2+ ion impact and the Ca2+ binding capabilities of PAF outside the fungal cell, which might be the reason for the activity loss. Using nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR), isothermal titration calorimetry and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations we demonstrated that PAF weakly, but specifically binds Ca2+ ions. MD simulations of PAF predicted one major Ca2+ binding site at the C-terminus involving Asp53 and Asp55, while Asp19 was considered as putative Ca2+ binding site. The exchange of Asp19 to serine had little impact on the Ca2+ binding, however caused the loss of antifungal activity, as was shown in our recent study. Now we replaced the C-terminal aspartates and expressed the serine variant PAF{D53S/D55S}. The specific Ca2+ binding affinity of PAF{D53S/D55S} decreased significantly if compared to PAF, whereas the antifungal activity was retained. To understand more details of Ca2+ interactions, we investigated the NMR and MD structure/dynamics of the free and Ca2+-bound PAF and PAF{D53S/D55S}. Though we found some differences between these protein variants and the Ca2+ complexes, these effects cannot explain the observed Ca2+ influence. In conclusion, PAF binds Ca2+ ions selectively at the C-terminus; however, this Ca2+ binding does not seem to play a direct role in the previously documented modulation of the antifungal activity of PAF.

Cím:Solution structure and novel insights into phylogeny and mode of action of the Neosartorya (Aspergillus) fischeri antifungal protein (NFAP) / Hajdu Dorottya, Huber Anna, Czajlik András, Tóth Liliána, Kele Zoltán, Kocsubé Sándor, Fizil Ádám, Marx Florentine, Galgóczy László, Batta Gyula

Megjegyzések:Small, cysteine-rich and cationic antifungal proteins fromnatural sources are promising candidates for the development of novel treatment strategies to prevent and combat infections caused by drug-resistant fungi. However, limited information about their structure and antifungal mechanism hampers their future applications. In the present study, we determined the solution structure, dynamics and associated solvent areas of the Neosartorya (Aspergillus) fischeri antifungal protein NFAP. Genome mining within the genus revealed the presence of orthologous genes in N. fischeri and Neosartorya spathulata, and genes encoding closely related proteins can be found in Penicillium brasiliensis and Penicillium oxalicum. We show that the tertiary structure of these putative proteins can be resolved using the structure of NFAP as reliable template for in silico prediction. Localization studies with fluorescence-labelled protein pointed at an energy-dependent uptake mechanism of NFAP in the sensitive model fungus Neurospora crassa and subsequent cytoplasmic localization coincided with cell-death induction. The presented results contribute to a better understanding of the structure/function relationship of NFAP and related proteins and pave the way towards future antifungal drug development.

Cím:New Antimicrobial Potential and Structural Properties of PAFB: A Cationic, Cysteine-Rich Protein from Penicillium chrysogenum Q176 / Anna Huber, Dorottya Hajdu, Doris Bratschun-Khan, Zoltán Gáspári, Mihayl Varbanov, Stéphanie Philippot, Ádám Fizil, András Czajlik, Zoltán Kele, Christoph Sonderegger, László Galgóczy, Andrea Bodor, Florentine Marx, Gyula Batta

Megjegyzések:Small, cysteine-rich and cationic proteins with antimicrobial activity are produced by diverse organisms of all kingdoms and represent promising molecules for drug development. The ancestor of all industrial penicillin producing strains, the ascomycete Penicillium chryosgenum Q176, secretes the extensively studied antifungal protein PAF. However, the genome of this strain harbours at least two more genes that code for other small, cysteine-rich and cationic proteins with potential antifungal activity. In this study, we characterized the pafB gene product that shows high similarity to PgAFP from P. chrysogenum R42C. Although abundant and timely regulated pafB gene transcripts were detected, we could not identify PAFB in the culture broth of P. chrysogenum Q176. Therefore, we applied a P. chrysogenum-based expression system to produce sufficient amounts of recombinant PAFB to address unanswered questions concerning the structure and antimicrobial function. Nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR)-based analyses revealed a compact [beta]-folded structure, comprising five [beta]-strands connected by four solvent exposed and flexible loops and an "abcabc" disulphide bond pattern. We identified PAFB as an inhibitor of growth of human pathogenic moulds and yeasts. Furthermore, we document for the first time an anti-viral activity for two members of the small, cysteine-rich and cationic protein group from ascomycetes.

Cím:Confirmation of the Disulfide Connectivity and Strategies for Chemical Synthesis of the Four-Disulfide-Bond-Stabilized Aspergillus giganteus Antifungal Protein, AFP / Györgyi Váradi, Gyula Batta, László Galgóczy, Dorottya Hajdu, Ádám Fizil, András Czajlik, Máté Virágh, Zoltán Kele, Vera Meyer, Sascha Jung, Florentine Marx, Gábor K.

Megjegyzések:Emerging fungal infections require new, more efficient antifungal agents and therapies. AFP, a protein from Aspergillus giganteus with four disulfide bonds, is a promising candidate because it selectively inhibits the growth of filamentous fungi. In this work, the reduced form of AFP was prepared using native chemical ligation. The native protein was synthesized via oxidative folding with uniform protection for cysteine thiols. AFP's biological activity depends heavily on the pattern of natural disulfide bonds. Enzymatic digestion and MS analysis provide proof for interlocking disulfide topology (abcdabcd) that was previously assumed. With this knowledge, a semi-orthogonal thiol protection method was designed. By following this strategy, out of a possible 105, only 6 disulfide isomers formed and 1 of them proved to be identical with the native protein. This approach allows the synthesis of analogs for examining structure-activity relationships and, thus, preparing AFP variants with higher antifungal activity.
