Abstract：
:The Escherichia coli D-galactose and D-glucose receptor possesses a Ca(II)-binding site closely related in structure and metal-binding characteristics to the eukaryotic EF-hand sites. Only the structure of the Ca(II)-occupied site is known. To investigate the structural change triggered by Ca(II) and Sr(II) binding, we have used 19F NMR to probe five 5-fluorotryptophan (5F-Trp) and seven 3-fluorophenylalanine (3F-Phe) positions in the structure, extending the approach described in the preceding article. Of particular interest were two 5F-Trp residues near the N terminus of the Ca(II) site at positions 127 and 133. Substitution of the larger Sr(II) for Ca(II) triggered 19F NMR frequency shifts of the 5F-Trp127 and -133 resonances, indicating a detectable structural change in the Ca(II) site. In contrast, the three 5F-Trp resonances from distant regions of the structure exhibited no detectable frequency shifts. When the metal was removed from the Ca(II) site, the 5F-Trp127 and -133 frequencies shifted to a new value similar to that observed for free 5F-Trp in aqueous solvent, and this new frequency was a function of the H2O to D2O ratio, indicating that the residues had become solvent exposed. Metal removal yielded small or undetectable frequency shifts for the three distant 5F-Trp resonances and for four of the five resolved 3F-Phe resonances. The allosteric coupling of the metal and sugar binding sites was observed to be slight: depletion of metal ions was observed to reduce the D-galactose affinity of the receptor by 2-fold. Together the results indicate that the structural changes in the Ca(II) site are primarily localized in the region of the site. Removal of the metal ion from the site exposes the nearby 5F-Trp127 and -133 residues to the solvent, suggesting that the empty site has a more open structure.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
