3 Summary of Experimental Protein Structure Determination Key Elements

4 Learning Objectives After last week you should be able to: Give an outline of the most important steps (and obstacles) in protein structure determination by X-ray crystallography and NMR spectroscopy. Identify relevant parameters for evaluating the quality of protein structures determined by X-ray crystallography and NMR spectroscopy.

5 X-Ray Crystallography in Brief General method for structure determination Very accurate/well-defined structures Only little information on dynamics (Bfactors) For quality check: Remember the three Rs Resolution R/R free Ramachandran plot

6 The Experiment(s)

7 X-Ray Diffraction and Resolution Bragg s equation Diffraction image nλ = 2d sinθ " θ = sin 1 nλ % $ ' # 2d & 7

8 Other Parameters Non-crystallographic symmetry (NCS) Subunit symmetry not coinciding with crystal symmetry. Assume (=force) subunits to have identical conformation (strict/nonstrict). Reduces number of free parameters in refinement. Used when amount of data is insufficient (low resolution). B-factors Not refined Overall (from data) Grouped (aa. or bb/sc) Individual (atomic) Anisotropic (Res. < 1.5Å) Geometry Side chain rotamers Bond lengths Angles G-factor (overall geometrical quality)

9 Bottlenecks Getting the protein in sufficient quantity and purity Crystallisation (trial and error) Diffraction/resolution limit (both high and low)

10 NMR Basics NMR is nuclear magnetic resonance NMR spectroscopy is done on proteins IN SOLUTION Only atoms 1 H, 13 C, 15 N (and 31 P) can be detected in NMR experiments Proteins up to 30 kda Proteins stable at high concentration (0.5-1mM), preferably at room temperature

11 Distance Restraints Distance restraints are derived from spectra

12 Deposited NMR structure Finally, an ensemble of the structures with lowest total energy and lowest number of violations are deposited in the Protein Data Bank The restraints are deposited in the BioMagResBank (BMRB) The ensemble shows possible structures within the space defined by the constraints The ensemble of 20 NMR structures of the U-box domain from Atpub14 deposited in PDB (1T1H) Andersen et al., JBC, 2004

13 Evaluation of NMR Structures Homo-/hetero- nuclear NMR? RMSD (be careful)? Types of constraints? Numbers of constraints? Violations? Specific regions?

15 Structure Validation Originally by Anne Mølgaard, University of Copenhagen

16 Structure Validation A homology model will never be better than the template it is based on So make sure the template is good!

17 Learning objective After today you will be able to tell a good crystal structure from a bad one! 1hgf 1hgf Jmol PyMOL

18 The Protein Data Bank February, 2012

19 X-ray Crystallography vs. NMR X-ray crystallography Proteins of any size Proteins in crystal Complete data/total map of structure Many details one model Resolution, R-values, Ramachandran plot NMR spectroscopy Proteins below 50 kda Proteins in solution Incomplete data Fewer details many models Restraint violations, RMSD, Ramachandran plot

20 Ramachandran plot

21 Ramachandran Plot I Procheck (Laskowski) 4 categories: Most favored Additionally allowed Generously allowed disallowed More than 90% structures in most favored regions and none or only a few in disallowed regions PDBSum: thornton-srv/databases/ pdbsum/

22 Ramachandran Plot II Uppsala Ramachandran server (Kleywegt & Jones): Newer analysis of PDB Two categories: Allowed Disallowed More than 95% residues in allowed regions ramachan.html

23 Ramachandran Plot III MolProbity Current PDB standard. Three categories Favoured (>98%) Allowed (>99.8%) Disallowed Also outputs plots for Glycine Proline Pre-proline molprobity.biochem.duke. edu/index.php

24 Ramachandran plot Good structures should have the majority of the residues in the most favored regions: Procheck: >90% Uppsala: >95% MolProbity: >98% and none or only a few in the disallowed regions. Residues in disallowed regions are either wrong or potentially very interesting.

25 Strange But Correct Mølgaard & Larsen (2002) Acta Cryst. D58,

26 R-factor, R free Structure factor ( ) = f j exp 2πi hx j + ky j + lz j F hkl N j=1 [ ( )] Individual reflections I hkl F obs (hkl) 2 Take out 5-10% of the data and use to calculate R free

27 R-factor, R free R-factors vary from < 10% (high resolution structures) to 59% (theoretical random structure). Rule of thumb for good quality structures: R Resolution/10 R free should be < 30% and not much more than 5% (points) higher than R: R > R free > R

28 Key Parameters Resolution R values Agreement between data and model. Usually between 0.15 and 0.25, should not exceed R ~ Resolution / 10 R > R free > R. Ramachandran plot The majority of residues in most favoured regions. B factors Contributions from static and dynamic disorder Well determined ~10-20 Å 2, intermediate ~20-30 Å 2, flexible Å 2, invisible >60 Å 2.

38 The Electron Density Server

40 Something s Fishy in 2hr0 No correlation between B-factors and solvent accessibility. Large layers of solvent in the c-direction (30-40Å thick) that spans entire unit cell (i.e. nothing to hold the crystal together). Absence of bulk solvent in diffraction data. 80% solvent resolution 2.3Å. Perfect electron density around impossible geometries. Impossible merging statistics for data from four crystals (Rmerge = 0.11 in the last resolution shell, with I/sig(I) = 1.32).

41 Diffraction Precision Index DPI (with Rfree): DPI (no Rfree): Scaled by B-factor Cruickshank 1999, Acta Cryst D

42 DPI vs. Resolution 2BSU

43 2bsu, 1.60Å, R=31.9, R free =33.6 Has now been replaced by 2v2w

44 Take Home Message It is easy to find bad structures in the PDB so validate!! Resolution Ramachandran R free RMSD (NMR) Restraint violations (NMR) High impact journal high quality structure!
