摘要

Most mitochondrial proteins are synthesized in thencytosol and imported into mitochondria. The Tom20 protein,nresiding on the mitochondrial surface, recognizes the N-terminalnpresequences of precursor proteins. We previously determined thencrystal structures of the Tom20u0001presequence complex. The success-nful crystallization involved tethering the presequence to Tom20nthrough an intermolecular disulfide bond with an optimized linker.nIn this work, we assessed the tethering method. The intermolecularndisulfide bond was cleaved in crystal with a reducing agent. The posen(i.e., conformation and position) of the presequence was identical to the previously determined pose. In another experiment, anlonger linker than the optimized length was used for the tethering. The perturbation of the tether changed the pose slightly, but theninteraction mode was preserved. These results argue against the forced interaction of the presequence by its covalent attachment tonTom20. Second, as an alternative method referred to as “molecular stiffening”, we introduced a disulfide bond within thenpresequence peptide to restrict the freedomof the peptide in the unbound states.One presequence analogue exhibited over 100-foldnhigher affinity than its linear counterpart and generated cocrystals with Tom20.One of the two crystallographic snapshots revealed anknown pose previously determined by the tethering method, and the other snapshot depicted a new pose. These results confirmednand extended the dynamic, multiple bound state model of the Tom20u0001presequence interactions and also demonstrated the validitynof the molecular tethering and stiffening techniques in studies of transient proteinu0001peptide interactions.
