摘要

The putative thiamin transporter ThiT from Lactococcus lactis was overproduced in themembrane of lactococcal cells. In vivo transport assays using radiolabeled thiamin demonstrated that ThiTindeed was involved in thiamin transport. The protein was solubilized from the membranes and purified indetergent solution. Size exclusion chromatography coupled to static light scattering, refractive index, and UVabsorbance measurements (SEC-MALLS) showed that ThiT is a monomer of 22.7 kDa in detergent solution.When the cells overexpressing ThiT had been cultivated in complex growth medium, all binding sites of thepurified protein were occupied with substrate, which had copurified with the protein. MALDI-TOF massspectrometry analysis confirmed that the copurified substance was thiamin. Substrate-depleted ThiT wasobtained by expressing the protein in cells that were cultivated in chemically defined growth medium withoutthiamin. The intrinsic tryptophan fluorescence of substrate-depleted ThiT was strongly quenched uponthiamin binding. The quenching of the fluorescence was used to determine dissociation constants for thiaminand related compounds. ThiT had an unusually high affinity for thiamin (KID = 122 ± 13 pM) and bound thesubstrate with a 1:1 (proteindigand) stoichiometry. TPP, TMP, and pyrithiamin bound to ThiT withnanomolar affinity. A multiple sequence alignment of ThiT homologues revealed that well-conserved residueswere clustered in a tryptophan-rich stretch comprising the loop between the predicted membrane spanningsegments 5 and 6. Mutational analysis of the conserved residues in this region combined with binding assays ofthiamin and related compounds was used to build a model of the high-affinity binding site. The model wascompared with thiamin binding sites of other proteins and interpreted in terms of the transport mechanism.
