Thermodynamics of ligand binding to trp repressor.

Abstract:

:The thermodynamics of L-tryptophan and operator DNA binding to the tryptophan repressor of Escherichia coli were analyzed by titration microcalorimetry and van't Hoff analysis of footprinting titrations, respectively. At 25 degrees C in 10 mM sodium phosphate, pH 7.6, and 0.1 M NaCl, the binding of L-tryptophan to the repressor is characterized by values of delta G degrees = -6.04, delta H degree = -14.7, and T delta S degree = -8.67 kcal/mol. The temperature dependence of delta H degree yields delta Cp degree = -0.46 +/- 0.08 kcal/(mol.K) per dimer. The binding is noncooperative at all temperatures studied. At 23 degrees C in 2.5 mM sodium phosphate, pH 7.6, and 25 mM NaCl, the binding of operator DNA to the repressor is characterized by values of delta G degree = -13.3 kcal/mol, delta H degree = -1.55 kcal/mol, T delta S degree = 11.8 kcal/mol, and delta Cp degree = -0.54 +/- 0.10 kcal/(mol.K). Changes in water-accessible surface areas upon binding of L-tryptophan or DNA were calculated from X-ray crystal structures. The experimentally observed delta Cp degree values were compared with delta Cp degree values calculated according to several methods based on various proposed relationships between surface area changes and heat capacity changes. Regardless of which method is used, we find poor agreement between the calorimetric results for L-tryptophan binding and the surface areas calculated from X-ray data; the direction of the discrepancy is that the X-ray data underestimate the value of delta Cp degree.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
