摘要

Methods for maintaining membrane proteins in their native state after removal from the lipid bilayer are essential for the study of this important class of biomacromolecules. Common solubilization strategies range from the use of detergents to more complex systems that involve a polypeptide working in concert with lipids or detergents, such as nanodiscs, picodiscs, and peptidiscs, in which an engineered protein or synthetic peptide surrounds the membrane protein along with a lipid sheath. Picodiscs employ the protein saposin A, which naturally functions to facilitate lipid degradation in the lysozome. Saposin A–amphiphile complexes therefore tend to be most stable at acidic pH, which is not optimal for most membrane protein applications. In search of new picodisc assemblies, we have explored pairings of saposin A or other saposin proteins with a range of detergents, and we have identified a number of combinations that spontaneously co-assemble at neutral pH. The resulting picodiscs are stable for weeks and have been characterized by size-exclusion chromatography, native mass spectrometry, and small angle X-ray scattering. The new assemblies are formed by double-tail detergents rather than more traditional single-tail detergents; the double-tail detergents can be seen as structurally intermediate between single-tail detergents and common lipids. In addition to saposin A, an engineered variant of saposin B (designated saposin B~(W)) forms picodisc assemblies. These findings provide a framework for future efforts to solubilize membrane proteins with multiple picodisc systems that were previously unknown.
