    Abstract Multi-disulfide-bond-containing proteins acquire their native structures through an oxidative folding reaction which involves formation of native disulfide bonds through thiol-disulfide exchange reactions between cysteines and disulfides coupled to a conformational folding event. Oxidative folding rates of the four-disulfide-bond-containing protein bovine pancreatic ribonuclease A (RNase A) in the presence of the synthetic redox-active molecule, (+/-)-trans-1,2-bis(2-mercaptoacetamido)cyclohexane (BMC), and in combination with non-redox-active trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO), and trifluorethanol were determined by HPLC analysis. The data indicate that regeneration of RNase A is enhanced 2-fold by BMC (50 microM) and 3-fold upon addition of TMAO (0.2 M) and TFE (3% v/v) relative to control experiments performed in the absence of small-molecules. Examination of the native tendency of the fully-reduced polypeptide and the stability of key folding intermediates suggests that the increased oxidative folding rate can be attributed to native-like elements induced within the fully-reduced polypeptide and the stabilization of native-like species by added non-redox-active molecules.

    Abstract In the Cro protein family, an evolutionary change in secondary structure has converted an alpha-helical fold to a mixture of alpha-helix and beta-sheet. P22 Cro and lambda Cro represent the ancestral all-alpha and descendant alpha+beta folds, respectively. The major structural differences between these proteins are at the C-terminal end of the domain (residues 34-56), where two alpha-helices in P22 Cro align with two beta-strands in lambda Cro. We sought to assess the possibility that smooth evolutionary transitions could have converted the all-alpha structure to the alpha+beta structure through sequences that could adopt both folds. First, we used scanning mutagenesis to identify and compare patterns of key stabilizing residues in the C-terminal regions of both P22 Cro and lambda Cro. These patterns exhibited little similarity to each other, with structurally important residues in the two proteins most often occurring at different sequence positions. Second, "hybrid scanning" studies, involving replacement of each wild-type residue in P22 Cro with the aligned wild-type residue in lambda Cro and vice versa, revealed five or six residues in each protein that strongly destabilized the other. These results suggest that key stability determinants for each Cro fold are quite different and that the P22 Cro sequence strongly favors the all-alpha structure while the lambda Cro sequence strongly favors the alpha+beta structure. Nonetheless, we were able to design a "structurally ambivalent" sequence fragment (SASF1), which corresponded to residues 39-56 and simultaneously incorporated most key stabilizing residues for both P22 Cro and lambda Cro. NMR experiments showed SASF1 to stably fold as a beta-hairpin when incorporated into the lambda Cro sequence but as a pair of alpha-helices when incorporated into P22 Cro.
