3 Whole-cell Drew et al., FEBS (2001) MPs tested rapidly for quantity and quality In-gel Drew et al., Nat Methods (2005), Newstead et al, PNAS (2007), Geertsma ER., PNAS (2008) FSEC Kawate T, Gouaux E. Structure (2006)

4 Plasmids and strains sent on request (no MTA)

5 Transporter structural summary? Crystallization success rate similar between proand eukaryotic transporters. Crystal optimization is the biggest difference. Sonoda Y et al. Structure. (2011)

6 The Emperical Triangle Y. Sonoda et al. Structure. (2011)

7 Micelle size is important Sonoda Y et al. FEBS (2010).

8 Micelle size correlates with dynamic radius Kunji ER. et al, Methods (2008)

9 Detergent (conformational) stability is important Serrano-Vega MJ, et al. PNAS (2008), Warne T et al. Nature (2008)

10 8Å 3Å DDM LDAO

11 How detergent stable does the MP need to be? Sonoda Y et al. Structure. (2011)

12 CPM assay to measure detergent MP stability DDM Different detergents Cys" CPM" 40 C Fluorescence Fluorescence CPM: the thiol-specific fluorochrome, N-[4-(7-diethylamino-4-methyl-3-coumarinyl)phenyl]maleimide Alexandrov A., Mileni M., Chien E., Hanson M., Stevens RC., Structure (2008)

15 Include test-set of control membrane proteins Sonoda Y et al. Structure. (2011)

16 Benchmarking Stability for Optimizing Crystallization CPM assay Rela)ve fluorescence (R.F.U) LDAO OG 9M 10M C 12 E 9 / 12M Time (min) Measure unfolding rate at 40 C for 130 min in proteins all purified In 12M and diluted 150- fold into buffer containing detergent at 3 x cmc

17 Calculate a relative unfolding rate (t 1/2 ) based on cysteine accessibility over time Fraction of folded protein = 1 - (fluorescence t =x) (max fluorescence) Sonoda Y et al. Structure. (2011)

18 Bacterial MPs more stable than Eukaryotic MPs Prokaryotic Eukaryotic N = 16 N = 8 Y. Sonoda et al. Structure. (2011)

19 Mean membrane protein detergent stability correlates with micelle-size Y. Sonoda et al. Structure. (2011)

20 Hydrophobic mismatch Olaf Anderson and Roger Koepe (2007). Annu. Rev. Biopys. Biomol. Struct

21 Comparing t 1/2 values to monodispersity

22 Decreasing stability

23 Benchmarking Stability for Optimizing Crystallization LDAO Eukaryo)c Prokaryo)c stable 17 min not- stable

24 Benchmarking Stability for Optimizing Crystallization 12M > > Eukaryo)c Prokaryo)c stable 17 min

25 MPs stable in harsh detergents are also more in general LDAO vs 9M

26 MPs stable in harsh detergents are also more in general 9M vs 10M 12M vs C 12 E 9

27 Stable MPs are more likely to crystallize in small detergent

28 All our structure success are only the most stable MPs LDAO min

29 4 bacterial and 1 plant transporter crystals diffract well

30 How do we tackle less stable transporters? LDAO min 5?

31 Benchmarking Stability Lipid for addition Optimizing Crystallization Rat sugar transporter

32 Benchmarking Stability for Optimizing Crystallization? Solved
