3 zf-c2h2 Family Diversity Currently, there are 32,874 identified zinc fingers of the type zf-c2h2 (Pfam 17.0) There are 5264 proteins with identified zinc fingers, which are represented in 235 different architectures Distribution: Eukaryota: 5233 proteins Vertebrata: 3435 proteins Amphibians: 218 protiens Humans: 1390 proteins Mice: 1085 Fungi: 395 proteins Viruses: 19 proteins Archea: 12 proteins zf-c2h2 MSA Snapshot of the multiple sequence alignment for the domain (* conserved residue) EGR1_HUMAN/ FACD...ICG...RKFARS...DERKRHTKI...H ZFP60_MOUSE/ FECK...ECG...KAFHFS...SQLNNHKTS...H ACE2_YEAST/ YSCDF.PGCT...KAFVRN...HDLIRHKIS...H SUHW_DROAN/ YACK...ICG...KDFTRS...YHLKRHQKYS.SC ZNF76_HUMAN/ YTCPE.PHCG...RGFTSA...TNYKNHVRI...H TTKB_DROME/ YPCP...FCF...KEFTRK...DNMTAHVKI..IH XFIN_XENLA/ YKCG...LCE...RSFVEK...SALSRHQRV...H Q17793_CAEEL/ YQCQ...LCK...KSISRHGQYANLLNHLSR...H TF3A_BUFAM/ YPCRKDSTCP...FVGKTW...SDYMKHAAE..LH ZN592_HUMAN/ YTCG...YCTEDSPSFPRP...SLLESHISL..MH * * * * 3
4 zf-c2h2 Family Diversity There are 42 structures of zf-c2h2 proteins in the Protein Data Bank 11 structures were applicable to our interests Of the 42 structures: 20 were from x-ray crystallography 22 were developed through NMR At least 15 were duplicate structures We only considered structures that were developed through x-ray crystallography and had either 2 or 3 zinc fingers, as they would belong to the EGR family Homology Modeling We chose two proteins with known structures to perform homology modeling, 1G2D and 1AAY Allows us to compare the predicted structure against the known structure to determine the accuracy of the prediction A Zif268 variant (1G2D) was selected for the target of the homology modeling, with the template being Zif268 (1AAY) The 1G2D recognizes the DNA Sequence: 5 GCTATAAAA 3 The sequences are 83% similar, with 81% sequence identity 1AAY MERPYACPVESCDRRFSRSDELTRHIRIHTGQKPFQCRICMRNFS MERPYACPVESCDRRFS+ L HIRIHTGQKPFQCRICMRNFS 1G2D MERPYACPVESCDRRFSQKTNLDTHIRIHTGQKPFQCRICMRNFS 1AAY RSDHLTTHIRTHTGEKPFACDICGRKFARSDERKRHTKIHLRQKD + L HIRTHTGEKPFACDICGRKFA R RHTKIHLRQKD 1G2D QHTGLNQHIRTHTGEKPFACDICGRKFATLHTRDRHTKIHLRQKD 4
5 Homology Modeling We were concerned with positions -1, 3 and 6 in the α-helix The Consensus Server, developed in part by Dr. Camacho, was used to perform the homology modeling ( Since threading algorithms are used in the Consensus method, the side chains of amino acids can only be predicted to the extent of the corresponding amino acid from the template. Serine Lysine the method can only place Cα and Cβ atoms, leaving four carbon atoms positions undeterminable. CHARMM was used to complete the side chains Side Chain Relaxation via Molecular Dynamic Simulations We chose to relax the side chains for each domain independently to find the most favorable state Simulations were run using a constrained backbone to conserve the structure that was predicted in the previous step Run-time totaled of 4.2 ns for each domain 200 ps for system equilibration, Each time step was 2 fs This simulation did not take into account ions and without the DNA present We were particularly interested in the states of the three residues involved in DNA recognition 5
6 RMSD Analysis and Clustering RMSD analysis was performed between the results of the MD simulations and the crystal structure Cα atoms were aligned to produce a minimized RMSD calculation The RMSD was calculated for symmetric structures where applicable (i.e. arginine residues) to further minimize the RMSD A neighbor clustering algorithm was also applied to analyze the snapshots produced from the MD simulation Performed on a single side chain Calculated for all pairs of snapshots Clustering took place within a 1.0 Å threshold Clusters were ranked based upon the number of snapshots that were included. RMSD vs Time for Position 3 in Helix RMSD (Å) Time (ns) 6
7 RMSD vs. Time for Residue 6 in Helix 3 RMSD (Å) Time (ns) 7
8 Results Through RMSD and cluster analysis, we have determined that most of the residues reach an equilibrium point that is highly similar to the crystal structure. Cluster analysis revealed that the cluster with the most amount of neighbors is generally highly similar to the crystal structure. There are a few residues that are seen in the simulation that seem to fluctuate between two states, as can be seen in Figure 3. We believe that this fluctuation may be correlated to the mechanism by which the protein recognizes the DNA. 8
9 Other Models This method was also run in two other situations: Modeling Zif268 (1AAY) using the Zif268 variant (1G2D) as a template Modeling Designed Zinc Finger (1MEY) using Zif268 as the template Shares 49% identity with 1AAY Shares 47% identity with 1G2D Preliminary results and analysis show similar findings to 1G2D modeled after 1AAY Conclusions and Future Applications Through this method we are able to effectively determine a homology model of zinc finger proteins, more specifically zinc finger proteins in the EGR family. The modeled side chains are found to be in a state that is similar to the crystal structure, even when in an unbound state, which is particularly important for the key residues involved in DNA recognition. Since the modeled domains are in a desirable conformation, it is possible to perform docking experiments with homology modeled zinc fingers, which is currently being done using an DNA-protein docking algorithm developed in the lab. Future applications include modeling EGR proteins with an undetermined structure to see if the model is able to recognize the proper DNA sequence. 9
