Abstract:
:Mutations of any subunit of the troponin complex may lead to serious disorders. Rational approaches to managing these disorders require knowledge of the complex interactions among the three subunits that are required for proper function. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were performed for both skeletal (sTn) and cardiac (cTn) troponin. The interactions and correlated motions among the three components of the troponin complex were analyzed using both Molecular Mechanics-Generalized Born Surface Area (MMGBSA) and cross-correlation techniques. The TnTH2 helix was strongly positively correlated with the two long helices of TnI. The C domain of TnC was positively correlated with TnI and TnT. The N domain of TnC was negatively correlated with TnI and TnT in cTn, but not in sTn. The two C-domain calcium-binding sites of TnC were dynamically correlated. The two regulatory N-domain calcium-binding sites of TnC were dynamically correlated, even though the calcium-binding site I is dysfunctional. The strong interaction residue pairs and the strong dynamically correlated residues pairs among the three components of troponin complexes were identified. These correlated motions are consistent with the idea that there is a high degree of cooperativity among the components of the regulatory complex in response to Ca(2+) and other effectors. This approach may give insight into the mechanism by which mutations of troponin cause disease. It is interesting that some observed disease causing mutations fall within regions of troponin that are strongly correlated or interacted.
