摘要

Time-dependent studies of membrane protein function arenhindered by extensive light scattering that impedes application of fastnoptical absorbance methods. Detergent solubilization reduces light scat-ntering but strongly perturbs rhodopsin activation kinetics. Nanodiscs maynbe a better alternative if they can be shown to be free from the seriousnkinetic perturbations associated with detergent solubilization. To resolventhis, wemonitored absorbance changes due to photointermediates formednon the microsecond to hundred millisecond time scale after excitation ofnbovine rhodopsin nanodiscs and compared them to photointermediates that form in hypotonically washed native membranes asnwell as to those that form in lauryl maltoside suspensions at 15 and 30 u0001C over a pH range from 6.5 to 8.7. Time-resolved differencenspectra were collected from 300 to 700 nm at a series of time delays after photoexcitation and globally fit to a sum of time-decayingnexponential terms, and the photointermediates present were determined from the spectral coefficients of the exponential terms. Atnthe temperatures and pHs studied, photointermediates formed after photoexcitation of rhodopsin in nanodiscs are extremely similarnto those that form in nativemembrane, in particular displaying the normal forward shift of theMeta I480 aMeta II equilibriumwithnincreased temperature and reduced pH which occurs in native membrane but which is not observed in lauryl maltoside detergentnsuspensions. These results were obtained using the amount of rhodopsin in nanodiscs which is required for optical experiments withnrhodopsinmutants. This work demonstrates that late, physiologically important rhodopsin photointermediates can be characterizednin nanodiscs, which provide the superior optical properties of detergent without perturbing the activation sequence.
