    Abstract The aims of this study included evaluation of copper-binding capacity (CBC) and amino acid composition of salmon by-product proteolysate and its peptide fractions, optimization of hydrolysis condition, and identification of copper-binding peptides from the proteolysate. The result was that under the ideal hydrolysis (Neutrase, temperature of 45 °C, pH 7, enzyme:substrate (E:S) proportion of 72.24 U/g protein and hydrolysis time of 8.02 h), the proteolysate had the indispensable amino acid content at approximately 38.7% and also displayed the maximal CBC of 15163.6 µg Cu²⁺/g protein. Besides, four peptide fractions of 10–30 kDa, 3–10 kDa, 1–3 kDa, and <1 kDa were recovered using ultrafiltration, among which the <1 kDa fraction had the highest CBC of 10852.00 ± 895.06 µgCu²⁺/g protein. A copper-binding peptide, Phe-Ile-Asp-Asp-Asp-Ala-Phe-Ile-Arg (1110 Da), was identified from this fraction using tandem mass spectrometry (MS/MS). As a whole, the proteolysate/peptides could be used for copper enhancement that could shield human body from copper inadequacy disorders.

    Abstract To extend the value of biosensor-SPR in the characterization of DNA recognition by nucleoproteins, we report a comparative analysis of DNA-facilitated target search by two ETS-family transcription factors: Elk1 and ETV6. ETS domains represent an attractive system for developing biosensor-based techniques due to a broad range of physicochemical properties encoded within a highly conserved DNA-binding motif. Building on a biosensor approach in which the protein is quantitatively sequestered and presented to immobilized cognate DNA as nonspecific complexes, we assessed the impact of intrinsic cognate and nonspecific affinities on long-range (intersegmental) target search. The equilibrium constants of DNA-facilitated binding were sensitive to the intrinsic binding properties of the proteins such that their relative specificity for cognate DNA were reinforced when binding occurred by transfer vs. without nonspecific DNA. Direct measurement of association and dissociation kinetics revealed ionic features of the activated complex that evidenced DNA-facilitated dissociation, even though Elk1 and ETV6 harbor only a single DNA-binding surface. At salt concentrations that masked the effects of nonspecific pre-binding at equilibrium, the dissociation kinetics of cognate binding were nevertheless distinct from conditions under which nonspecific DNA was absent. These results further strengthen the significance of long-range DNA-facilitated translocation in the physiologic environment.

    Abstract Electrostatic protein/DNA interactions arise from the neutralization of the DNA phosphodiester backbone as well as coupled exchanges by charged protein residues as salt bridges or with mobile ions. Much focus has been and continues to be paid to interfacial ion pairs with DNA. The role of extra-interfacial ionic interactions, particularly as dynamic drivers of DNA sequence selectivity, remain poorly known. The ETS family of transcription factors represents an attractive model for addressing this knowledge gap given their diverse ionic composition in primary structures that fold to a tightly conserved DNA-binding motif. To probe the importance of extra-interfacial salt bridges in DNA recognition, we compared the salt-dependent binding by Elk1 with ETV6, two ETS homologs differing markedly in ionic composition. While both proteins exhibit salt-dependent binding with cognate DNA that corresponds to interfacial phosphate contacts, their nonspecific binding diverges from cognate binding as well as each other. Molecular dynamics simulations in explicit solvent, which generated ionic interactions in agreement with the experimental binding data, revealed distinct salt-bridge dynamics in the nonspecific complexes formed by the two proteins. Impaired DNA contact by ETV6 resulted in fewer backbone contacts in the nonspecific complex, while Elk1 exhibited a redistribution of extra-interfacial salt bridges via residues that are non-conserved between the two ETS relatives. Thus, primary structure variation in ionic residues can encode highly differentiated specificity mechanisms in a highly conserved DNA-binding motif.
