A molecular model for the redox potential difference between thioredoxin and DsbA, based on electrostatics calculations.

Abstract：

:The disulphide active sites of thioredoxin and DsbA are known to possess a high degree of structural homology. However, DsbA is a much stronger oxidant than thioredoxin. The redox potential difference between DsbA and thioredoxin has been measured to be 160 mV, equivalent to a shift of 15.4 kJ/mol in the reduced/oxidised equilibrium. Electrostatics calculations have been used to study the relative stabilities of the reduced forms of the two proteins. Model calculations suggest that much of the redox potential difference between DsbA and thioredoxin arises form altered stabilisation of the exposed and ionised thiolates of the reduced forms, supporting suggestions previously made on the basis of experimental studies. The calculations have been used to construct a molecular model for the difference in thiolate stabilisation. Although specific interactions, such as thiolate-NH 35 (thioredoxin)/33 (DsbA), provide substantial stabilisation in each reduced protein, the difference between thioredoxin and DsbA is predicted to reside in several side-chain and main-chain groups acting in concert. Residues H32 and Q97 in DsbA are predicted to contribute, along with substantial regions of the polypeptide backbone in the protein domain which is common to DsbA and thioredoxin. Increased thiolate stabilisation by the peptide dipoles is suggested to arise from altered main-chain disposition, and the effect of the additional protein domain of DsbA on the electric field. Peptide dipoles in a region of about 20 residues close to the active site disulphide are predicted to contribute significantly to the redox potential difference.
