摘要

We investigated the effects of substituting two of the four tryptophans (the “inner pair”nTrp9nand Trp11nor the “outer pair” Trp13nand Trp15n) in gramicidin A (gA) channels. Thenconformational preferences of the doubly substituted gA analogues were assessed using circularndichroism spectroscopy and size-exclusion chromatography, which show that the inner tryptophans 9nand 11 are critical for the gA’s conformational preference in lipid bilayer membranes. [Phen13,15n]gAnlargely retains the single-stranded helical channel structure, whereas [Phen9,11n]gA exists primarily asndouble-stranded conformers.Within this context, then2nH NMR spectra from labeled tryptophans werenused to examine the changes in average indole ring orientations, induced by the Phe substitutions andnby the shift in conformational preference.Using amethod for deuteriumlabeling of already synthesizedngAs, we introduced deuteriumselectively onto positions C2 andC5 of the remaining tryptophan indolenrings in the substituted gA analogues for solid-staten2nH NMR spectroscopy. The (least possible)nchanges in orientation and overall motion of each indole ring were estimated from the experimentalnspectra. Regardless of the mixture of backbone folds, the indole ring orientations observed in thenanalogues are similar to those found previously for gA channels. Both Phe-substituted analogues form single-stranded channels, asnjudged from the formation of heterodimeric channels with the native gA. [Phen13,15n]gA channels have Nanþ currents that are ∼50%nand lifetimes that are ∼80% of those of native gA channels. The double-stranded conformer(s) of [Phen9,11n]gA do not formndetectable channels. The minor single-stranded population of [Phen9,11n]gA forms channels with Nanþ currents that are ∼25% andnsingle-channel lifetimes that are∼300% of those of native gA channels.Our results suggest that Trp9nand Trp11n, when “reaching” fornthe interface, tend to drive bothmonomer folding (to “open” a channel) and dimer dissociation (to “close” a channel). Furthermore,nthe dipoles of Trp9nand Trp11nare relatively more important for the single-channel conductance than are the dipoles of Trp13nandnTrp15n.
