    Abstract Bacteriophage M13 major coat protein was reconstituted in different nonmatching binary lipid mixtures composed of 14:1PC and 22:1PC lipid bilayers. Challenged by this lose-lose situation of hydrophobic mismatch, the protein-lipid interactions are monitored by CD and site-directed spin-label electron spin resonance spectroscopy of spin-labeled site-specific single cysteine mutants located in the C-terminal protein domain embedded in the hydrophobic core of the membrane (I39C) and at the lipid-water interface (T46C). The CD spectra indicate an overall alpha-helical conformation irrespective of the composition of the binary lipid mixture. Spin-labeled protein mutant I39C senses the phase transition in 22:1PC, in contrast to spin-labeled protein mutant T46C, which is not affected by the transition. The results of both CD and electron spin resonance spectroscopy clearly indicate that the protein preferentially partitions into the shorter 14:1PC both above and below the gel-to-liquid crystalline phase transition temperature of 22:1PC. This preference is related to the protein tilt angle and energy penalty the protein has to pay in the thicker 22:1PC. Given the fact that in Escherichia coli, which is the host for M13 bacteriophage, it is easier to find shorter 14 carbon acyl chains than longer 22 carbon acyl chains, the choice the M13 coat protein makes seems to be evolutionary justified.

    Abstract Gene 9 protein is one of the minor coat proteins of bacteriophage M13. The protein plays a role in the assembly process by associating with the host membrane by protein-lipid interactions. The availability of chemically synthesized protein has enabled the biophysical characterization of the membrane-bound state of the protein by using model membrane systems. This paper summarizes, discusses and further interprets this work in the light of the current state of the literature, leading to new possible models of the coat protein in a membrane. The biological implications of these findings related to the membrane-bound phage assembly are indicated.

    Abstract It is well known that in multi-pulse applications in high-resolution NMR and MRI a steady state is reached for the magnetisation vector by the effect of relaxation in combination with the pulse repetition time. In this paper, a mathematical model is developed to understand how the parameters of the pulse sequence and relaxation times T(1) and T(2) affect the behaviour of the magnetisation vector. It will be shown that even under strong simplifying conditions an analytical analysis becomes very complex and only an analytical solution can be found for 90 degrees pulses and T(1)=T(2). For other cases a numerical approach is needed. Nevertheless, the basic approach of the mathematical analysis provides a general tool for analytical multi-operator applications. Our results provide a quantitative insight in the process by which the magnetisation relaxes towards the steady-state situation in a multi-pulse sequence.

    Abstract EPR-based Gd(III)-nitroxide distance measurements were performed on a series of membrane-incorporated orthogonally labeled WALP23 polypeptides. The obtained distance distributions were stable upon the change of detection frequency from 10 GHz (X-band) to 35 GHz (Q-band). The α-helical pitch of WALP23 polypeptide could be experimentally observed, despite the flexibility of the two spin labels. The spectroscopic properties of Gd(III) ions and nitroxide radicals allow detecting both types of paramagnetic species selectively in different EPR experiments. In particular, this spectroscopic selectivity allows for supplementing Gd(III)-nitroxide distance measurements with independent checks of polypeptide aggregation and with measurements of the local environment of the nitroxide spin labels. All mentioned additional checks do not require preparation of further samples, as it is the case in the experiments with pairs of identical nitroxide spin labels.

    Abstract The work presented here describes a new and simple method based on site-directed fluorescence labeling using the BADAN label that permits the examination of protein-lipid interactions in great detail. We applied this technique to a membrane-embedded, mainly alpha-helical reference protein, the M13 major coat protein. Using a high-throughput approach, 40 site-specific cysteine mutants were prepared of the 50-residues long protein. The steady-state fluorescence spectra were analyzed using a three-component spectral model that enabled the separation of Stokes shift contributions from water and internal label dynamics, and protein topology. We found that most of the fluorescence originated from BADAN labels that were hydrogen-bonded to water molecules even within the hydrophobic core of the membrane. Our spectral decomposition method revealed the embedment and topology of the labeled protein in the membrane bilayer under various conditions of headgroup charge and lipid chain length, as well as key characteristics of the membrane such as hydration level and local polarity, provided by the local dielectric constant.

    Abstract Longitudinal relaxation of nitroxide spin-labels has been measured for a membrane-incorporated α-helical polypeptide in the presence and absence of residual amounts of membrane-dissolved O2 and paramagnetic Dy(3+) ions. Such a model system, containing three different types of paramagnetic species, provides an important example of nonadditivity of two different relaxation channels for the nitroxide spins.
