Q

What is the biggest problem in affinity chromatography

Give example

A

Non specific binding to the beads

Get over this by using magnetic beads instead of sepharose beads

Also Need to make sure that the protien binding part on the protien is free to dock the site on the bead

Atp, when purifying need to know what part of it docks to make a affinity chromatography bead for it

Q

What are the steps in affinity chromatography

A

Incubate the crude sample (or serum if purifying antigens) with the bead to let the target protien bind

Wash away unbound samples

Elite the target protien from the ligand in the bead by chasing buffer conditions (might be hard because if very high affinity it won’t come off easily)

Q

What are immobilized/directly coupled ligands

What are indirectly coupled ligands

A

Direct: you have your gst tagged protien in crude extract and it is bound to the 3 aa long glutathione on the matrix

Elute with excess glutathione and you get the gst tagged protien with the glutathione attached to the gst

Indirect:
a pull down where the binding partners get coupled to the immobilized tag

Have the tagged protein binding to the column

But now pass over a solution with binding partners inside it and your proteins binding partners also get attached to the column

Q

How can nonspecific binding on affinity chromatography be minimized

What’s the downside

How do you get protien off off the matrix

A

Adding low levels of detergent to wash buffer

Increasing salt concentration in wash buffer

But this could disrupt the actual interaction of the target with the bead , this is why you need to also do controls experiments with this

Elute:
Extreme Low or high pH (glycine ph 2 to elute igG)

high salt

detergents (SDS)

chaotropic agents (naSCN for pp1)

competion with a higher concentration counter ligand (like glutathione for gst elution) : same ligand that you coupled to the matrix

Q

Explain the phneomena of binding partners in yeast

A

Protien protien interactions are the rule not the exception

6200 protiens in S.cerevisiae

Experiment where they tagged every protien in yeast then did a pull down to see binding partners of every protien

Found Asocial protien group called DLR1, whcih has no binding partners because did pull down and nothing came out

So out of 6200 protiens, only 461 protiens didn’t have partners

Shows how Protien protien interactions are the rule not the exception.

Even Once you find some other condition of the affinity chromatography, some those 461 could still show binding partners

Q

Explain the IP with phosphorylates RVSF antibody experiment results

A

EXACTLY SAME AMOUNT OF 2 MICROGRAMS Compared 5 control preimmune serum igG immunopreciptations and 5 p-RVSF igG IP (so the antibody recognizes phospho RVSF)

When purifying the control igG or the experimental igG, checked the number of resulting unique peptides that came from the protien they were purifying

The protien that elutes would have the p-RVSF motif meaning it got phosphorylated at the entrance of mitosis

RICTR protien showed no unique peptides in the control so not a non specific binder

But grp 78 had the same number of unique peptides in control as in experimental, meaning grp 78 is a non specific binder

NUMA1 also shows in the control experiment but it is higher in the experimental, meaning there is some degree of non specific binding but it is still a real binder

Q

For the bacterial non specific binding, why would the untagged BL21 DE3 protiens bind to the ni-NTA matrix even without the his tag

A

Non specific binding to the agarose bead, then eluting with high charge imidazole bumps them off the matrix

Might naturally have string of his residues

Q

For the bacterial non specific binding, why would the tagged SLP1 lane show an extra band but the tagged slp 2 doesn’t

A

Not a non specific binder because it would be with the non specific binding band

It’s a protien that interacts with slp1 and copurfies but not with slp2

Q

Explain how to use the MBP tag

And the way to elute

A

In our protien gene sequence, We add a protease cleavage site after the MBP part but before the target part of the gene

The target protien with the MBP bind to amylose sugar

First way to elute:

We elute with maltose, cleave with protease, then dialysis to remove the excess maltose and another chromatography step to remove MBP from target protien

Second way to elute:

Add protease first while the protein on amylose resin

Collect flowthrough with cleaved protien and protease, remove protease from solution

Q

What’s another way to bind fusion protien to a column

Q

How is a column for IMAC prepared

A

The bead has either NTA or IDA (nitrilotriacetic acid, iminodiacetic acid) as a chela for for metal ion

Then NTA is charged with the metal (ni) to make Ni-NTA

Then the nitrogen on the his tag interacts with the metal

Q

What are the conditions needed to do IMAC

A

The tags bind best to the column at ph 7.5 and 150 mM ionic strength (physiological)

Wash buffer has low amount of imidazole to prevent non specific binding of protiens that naturally have his, by washing them out

Also salt and low concentration detergent to stop nonspecific binding

Elute with high imidazole

Q

How can IMAC also work for insoluble protiens

A

Since high salt and chaotropic agents like 8M urea and 6M guandiunium are compatible with the column

You can use them to first denature the protien to get is soluble then do IMAC

Q

What are inclusion bodies

A

Q

What is the difference in GST MBP and IMAC

A

Gst and MBP needs the protien to be properly folded and have the 3D binding site to be functional so it can bind to the matrix

But IMAC doesn’t need this since his tags aren’t 3D, which is why we can purify inclusion bodies using denaturants

Q

What’s not comaptible with IMAC

A

Reducing agents and chelators (EDTA), so can’t use them to denature the inclusion bodies

32
Q

Why do we purify inclusion bodies

A

To make antibody’s

To use in far western blots also called overlays (since western blots can use both soluble and insoluble protiens)

33
Q

Why is western blot called that

A

The DNA binding to DNA on a membrane (southern blot) was done by a man named southern, they kept the theme

34
Q

What is the difference in western vs far western blot (overlay)

A

Western blot: have a protien on the membrane with an epitope, primary antibody binds to this epitope, secondary antibody for labelling binds to primary

Far western: another protien bind to epitope instead of antibody. Now a protien protien interaction then the antibody binds the other protien

35
Q

Explain how difference are seen in the far western and western blot of the Brest cancer samples

What is the reasons for the extra EGFR band showing up on the far western but no on western

A

In western blot have anti EGFR, see high expression of EGFR band in certain patients

In far western blot: had GST-SH2 PI3K, the SH2 domain in PI3K docks to the EGFR since the EGFR has phosphorylated tyrosine (protien protien interaction)

The extra band in far western could be:

The band in far western is actually a diff protien with phos tyrosines

the EGFR protien is cleaved, so epitope gone but still sh2 binding to phos tyrosine, causes band in far western and none in western

36
Q

What are the types of affinity chromatography

A

Peptide AC: peptide bound to the matrix

Co IP: antibody bound to agarose bead, get protien plus binding partners

Small molecule AC: coupled microcystin to the matrix to purify PP1, couple ATP to the matrix

Pulldowns

Displacement AC

Tap-tag (tandem affinity chromatography)

37
Q

Explain peptide AC with example

A

There is a peptide on a bead that is phos and dephos (has RVSF phos and no phos)

Get diff protiens bound to this peptide in phos and de phos form

Ex. PP1 binds and elutes with de phos version but not to phos version, phosphorylation prevent binding of pp1

38
Q

What would the gels from immune precipitation look like

How do we adjust it

A

One band with 55 and one at 25 (heavy and light chain) and the antigen of the antibody that was bound to the protien A resin

To remove the chains in the SDs page , covalently couple the antibody to protien A to just get the antigen and no antibody

39
Q

How was coimmunoprecpitation used to show that kif18a binds pp1 directly not through a binding partners

A

Used kif18a antibody on the matrix to bind kif18a and eluted

Did western blot with anti pp1 and anti kif18a, saw that pp1 was also in that eluted sample meaning it’s interacting with kif18a

Then did pull down assay with his tagged kif18a and saw that pp1 gets pulled down

40
Q

What are pull down assays

A

Have a pure and tagged protien (bait) that pulls down its binding partner (prey)

For example, doing IMAC, his tagging kif18a and seeing if PP1 comes out with the kif18a

41
Q

What was seen in each of the tubes of the pull down assay to show that kif18a binds pp1 directly not through a binding partners

A

Put each tube through ni-NTA column

Tube 1: no pp1, his kif18a or RARA kif18a , no bands

Tube 2: just pp1, control since could be binding non specifically, no bands

Tube 3: pp1 and his kif18a, saw pp1 band and kof18 band meaning pp1 pulled down with kif18a

Tube 4: pp1 and RARA kif18a, control, no pp1 band but kif18a band, show that if no RVSF motif PP1 doesn’t bind

So showed that pp1 binds to k18a directly through the RVSF motif

42
Q

What is displacement affinity chromatography

A

Using a peptide to displace specific binding partners

For example want pp1 binding partners but not pp1

Use a peptide with RVRW motif to bind to pp1 and displace binding partners in elution

43
Q

What is special about microcystin

A

VERY BAD TOXIN

A whole range of organisms create this small molecule/toxin that binds to enzymes to inhibit their function

Sweden releases raw sewage to the rivers, nitrogenous compounds in the sewage let’s the blue green algae to thrive and make Microcystin

Pollution make let’s microcystin in the water and kill us

44
Q

What does the kif18a eluting from the mc matrix show

A

The RVRW peptide being able to elute kif18a from the matrix (displacement chromatography)

shows that kif18a binds to pp1 directly using a RVRW motif

45
Q

What experiments showed the kif18a binds pp1 directly in the nucleus of hela cells

A
  1. The displacement chromatography with pp1 on the MC column, gave kif18a and K9 as binding partners
  2. The co-immunoprecipitation of kif18a, gave kif18 and pp1 in elution
  3. The pull down assay of pp1 with kif18a, showed pp1 binds kif18a through the motif RVRW since didn’t get pulled down with mutated RARA
46
Q

What is kif18a as a protien

How was this found

A

It’s a Kinesin (motor protein) that binds pp1 directly in the nucleus to take it to the mitotic spindle kinetochore for a de phosphorylation event

Found by:
Cloned kif18a with RFP, and have the PP1 with GFP, Had a stain that recognizes the dna

Saw that kif18a and pp1 showed up at the end of the microtubules which were binding to the chromosomes

47
Q

Why is yeast so good

A

Has easy genetics so we do large scale experiments with it

We can do homologous recombination to it where we have a tagged protien and expresses that tagged version in the yeast in place of the WT

48
Q

What is the tap tag

How is it made

A

Tandem affinity purification (two affinity chromatography in a row)

You fuse the TAP tag genome to the target protien genome and use homologous recombination to replace the endogenous WT protien with the TAP tagged one

Do this because if the endogenous protien is being overexpressed, it accosiates with non-natural binding partners

So maintain the normal levels by just completely replacing the endogenous protien with the tagged one through homologous recombination

49
Q

What are hubs

A

They are basically a map of different protien protien interactions

Ex. Can map that pp1 interacts with kif18a

50
Q

What is the structure of the tap tag

A

The tag has two copties or the protien A igG binding domains and a calmodulin binding peptide (CBP)

Separated by a TEV protease cleavage site

Protien- CBP- protease site-A-A

Can be flipped so N-C term is protien then protons A

Or N-C is protien A then protien

When ca binds the CAM, the CAM has a conformational change with its binding site exposed and binds to the CBP

51
Q

Why did the do two flipped versions of the tap tag

A

Because we’re looking for binding partners, the protien could bind at the n term or the c term

In each way either the n term or the c term of the protien is covered by the CAM binding protein

So we do this to make sure all binding sites can be exposed

Ex.

N-protein CAM- C (n term exposed with protien at the start)

N - CAM-protein -C (c term exposed with protien at the end)

52
Q

What is the method of TAP tag

A

you’ve expressed the protien with the tag it, has its normal binding partners, expressed at normal levels

First affinity step:

Put the cell lysate onto an igG matrix, non working end binds the protien A with high affinity

While bound to matrix, use the TEV to cleave

Now binding partners-protien-CBP elutes and protease, leaving non specific binders on the bead

Second affinity step:

The eluate binds to CAM coated beads with calcium in the buffer

So now CAM on the bead has conf change, bind the CBP-protien-binding partners

Wash to remove contaminants

Use egta to chelate the ca ions to make CAM change conf to close

Elutes the pure CBP-protien-binding partners

All nonspecific binders gone because using egta to elute

53
Q

Explain how the TAP tag gel shows the effectiveness of the tap tag

A

Ran 4 lanes with snu71p WT and TAP tagged

Just using cam bead to purify:
tap tagged showed band of the snu71p protein (with proteins A and CBP) and some contaminants, WT showed all contaminants and non specific binding

Using just igG with TEV protease:
tap tagged showed band of the cleaved snu71p protein (with just CBP), some contaminants, and the dirty TEV protease , WT showed all contaminants and non specific binding and tag contaminants

Just TEV protease:
Control , Showed that the protease is very dirty and contributes to some of the bands we see in the experiment

Tandem regular tap tag method: BEST RESULTS
tap tagged showed band of the snu71p protein and binding partners and barely any contaminants, WT no contaminants since all washed out

54
Q

How can we see that all of the binding partners of snu71p are stochimetriaclly related

A

By seeing that each band gets fainter as it goes down, for every molecule of sun there one molecule of binding partner and one mocleule of another binding partner

Coosmasie binds the surface of the protiens, if longer protien more intense band

1:1 binding

55
Q

What was the goal of the paper MODERN USE OF AFFINITY CHROMATOGRAPHY: TARGET LANDSCAPE OF CLINICAL KINASE DRUGS

A

Wanted to see if protien kinase inhibitors were specific or not by finding the targets of 243 kinase inhibitors

Did this by using kinobeads and using MS to see if the inhibitor were specific to what they were made for

56
Q

What are kinobeads

A

They let us purify endogenous protein kinases (no non protien kinases like pyruvate kinase)

By using quantitative mass spec, let us do label free measurements (don’t have to buys expensive reagent) of the interaction of the kinase with a bunch of protiens in parallel

57
Q

What are the two ways to do quantitative mass spec

A

TMT labelling (chemically label the peptides and quantify them using that label)

Label free

58
Q

Why are small protien kinase inhibitors (KI) used as drugs/medicines

A

Since protien kinases are disregulated in diseases like cancer, we use these small protein kinase inhibitors to target and stop them

Kinases are control in many of the cellular processes so if diregulated they cause big effects

59
Q

What are examples of drugs that inhibit kinases and what is special about them

A

Crizotinib and imatinib (gleevac)

They are tyrosine kinase inhibitors that aren’t as specific as we thought they were have off target/side effects

Need the drug to be a specific as possible to remove off target/side effects

60
Q

What is the kinome tree

What does it show

A

It’s a phylogenetic tree showing the relationship of all kinases to other kinases based on their sequence

Branches show ones that are closer to each other in the tree and are more closely related to each other than the other kinases

The circles mark protien kinases that the drug (imatinib or crizotinib) bind to in the human kinome

The bigger the circle the tighter the binding of the drug to the kinase

Shows that the drugs bind to many different protien kinases

61
Q

What does phophylation happen on

Give probability’s

A

Most protien get phosphorylated, 75%

Ser (86%) thr (12%) tyr (2%)

62
Q

What do kinases do

A

Use atp to phosphorylate specific residues on specific protiens (not random process)

Add phosphryl group

63
Q

What is the second biggest target of drug companies

The first

A

The 518 PK in the human genome

GPCR are first

64
Q

What do the protein kinase inhibitor drugs actually target

What make this hard

A

The atp binding pocket of the protien kinase

The substrate and atp has to dock in the kinase

Drugs are trying to be specific to certain kinases to inhibit them, but each protien kinase binds atp in the same way,

hard to make the drugs specific if they all use the same way to bind atp

65
Q

How does the kinome pull down assay work

A

On beads link 5 known protien kinase inhibitors that are non specific and bind all kinds of kinases

Mixed the beadS together

Run lysate of 4 different cell lines: want this because they express a bunch of diff kinases that can be extracted

Allow them to pull out all the protien kinases in the cell (missing some but may be because they weren’t expressed in the cell)

Do dose dependent competition with the small molecule inhibitors

Using LC-MS/MS Sequenced the peptides of the collected kinases to see which protein kinases were left on the beads after the dose dependent competition

66
Q

How is dose dependent competition done

A

Have varied amount of small molecule drug competing for binding the kinase with the kino bead

Orange green yellow kinase

Have zero small molecule inhibitor drug, do label free lc-MS/MS on the bead, see that the protien kinases dock the kino bead and high amounts of each kinase are seen in ms/ms since drug didn’t displace them

When adding inhibitor, with add it to the cell extract to it binds to the kinases, then run across the beads. Any kinase the drug binds to will not bind to the kinobead (since active site occupied by the inhibitor) and barely show up in MS/MS

One that decreases most would mean drug bind to it with high affinity

Keep increasing the concentrations in the cell extracts, the MS/MS of the high concentration inhibitor would show less signal of the kinase the drug has high affinity for

same amount of yellow protien in zero as in high shows that the inhibitor doesn’t bind to that kinase

67
Q

What is the concentration range they used in the kinobeads competitive pull down assay

A

Range of 3 nM to 30,000 nM

68
Q

What did the paper show about the Fausidil inhibitor

A

Found that fausidil targets PRKX, not Rock 1 and rock 2

Hydroxyfausidil targets ROCK1 and ROCK2

69
Q

How did the paper find that Fasudil binds PRKX and not Rock 1 and Rock 2

A

Did the kinobeads competitive pull-down assay

To test Fausidil:

The binding curve showed that as they increased the amount of Fasudil, the binding or PRKX to the column decreased more than ROCK1 and 2

The activity curve shows activity of PKRX decrease more than ROCK1 and ROCK2, meaning more of it is inactivated by Fasudil, more sensitive to the drug

Then did same but with hydroxyfasudil

Binding curve showed that PRKX not sensitive to drug at all , but ROCK1 and 2 decrease even more now

Same in the activity, ROCK1 and ROCK2 decrease

70
Q

How many protiens kinases in the cell

A

518

71
Q

How many kinases can the kinobeads pull down assay detect

A

250 out of the 518 in the cell

72
Q

Why would we want to study the the range of targets for a KI drug?

A

Most KI drugs target more than one protien and can’t be extremely specific

So we study their actual targets to explain

undesired side effects and to see if we can accept this degree of side effects

To repurpose the drug (might find it binds to another type of kinase to stop a diff disease)

73
Q

What was the conclusion of the TARGET LANDSCAPE OF CLINICAL KINASE DRUGS paper

A

Found that some drugs show exquisite selectivity but others bound more that 100 kinases simultaneously

Meaning it’s hard to make specific kinase inhibitor drugs using those inhibitors

Repurposing: Also found new targets for already made drugs , like SIK2 inhibitor targets TNF alpha and IL-10 production

74
Q

What are pseudokinases

A

Kinases that are inactive but still expressed in cells

75
Q

Explain the off target interactions of Protien kinase inhibitor

A

They found that many drugs target things other than their expected target

For example they target the kinase PDXK which phosphorylates vitamin B6 to make it, can lead to side effects

76
Q

Explain the black circle map using examples

A

Each black circle is a kinase inhibitor drug

The size of the circle is how many kinases it binds to (bigger circle, bind more kinases)

For example the drug ponatinib which is a tyrosine kinase inhibitor, is supposed to target a kinase for chronic myeloid leukaemia

But it binds to 39 other PK and has side effects

So bigger black circle
