摘要

The structure and stability of the allergenic nonspecific lipid transfer protein (LTP) of peach werencompared with the homologous LTP1 of barley and its liganded formLTP1b.All three proteins were resistantnto gastric pepsinolysis and were only slowly digested at 1 to 2 out of 14 potential tryptic and chymotrypticncleavage sites under duodenal conditions. Peach LTP was initially cleaved at Tyr79-Lys80 and then at Arg39-nThr40 (a site lost in barley LTP1). Molecular dynamics simulations of the proteins under folded conditionsnshowed that the backbone flexibility is limited, explaining the resistance to duodenal proteolysis. Arg39 andnLys80 side chains were more flexible in simulations of peach compared with barley LTP1. This may explainndifferences in the rates of cleavage observed experimentally for the two proteins and suggests that thenflexibility of individual amino acid side chains could be important in determining preferred proteolyticncleavage sites. In order to understand resistance to pepsinolysis, proteins were characterized by NMRnspectroscopy at pH 1.8. This showed that the helical regions of both proteins remain folded at this pH. NMRnhydrogen exchange studies confirmed the rigidity of the structures at acidic pH, with barley LTP1 showingnsome regions with greater protection. Collectively, these data suggest that the rigidity of the LTP scaffold isnresponsible for their resistance to proteolysis. Gastroduodenal digestion conditions do not disrupt the 3Dnstructure of peach LTP, explaining why LTPs retain their ability to bind IgE after digestion and hence theirnallergenic potential.
