摘要

ABSTRACT: The influenza A/M2 protein exhibits inwardly rectifying, pH-activated proton transport thatnsaturates at low pH. A comparison of high-resolution structures of the transmembrane domain at high andnlow pH suggests that pH-dependent conformational changes may facilitate proton conduction by alternatelynchanging the accessibility of theN-terminal and C-terminal regions of the channel as a proton transits throughnthe transmembrane domain.Here, we show thatM2 functionally reconstituted in liposomes populates at leastnthree different conformational states over a physiologically relevant pH range, with transition midpoints thatnare consistent with previously reported His37 pKa values.We then develop and test two similar, quantitativenmechanistic models of proton transport, where protonation shifts the equilibrium between structural statesnhaving different proton affinities and solvent accessibilities. The models account well for a collection ofnexperimental data sets over a wide range of pH values and voltages and require only a small number ofnadjustable parameters to accurately describe the data. While the kinetic models do not require any specificnconformation for the protein, they nevertheless are consistent with a large body of structural informationnbased on high-resolution nuclear magnetic resonance and crystallographic structures, optical spectroscopy,nand molecular dynamics calculations.
