A Chemical Mutagenesis Approach to Insert Post-translational Modifications in Aggregation-Prone Proteins

Abstract: Neurodegenerative diseases are a class of disorders linked to the formation in the nervous system of fibrillar protein aggregates called amyloids. This aggregation process is affected by a variety of post-translational modifications, whose specific mechanisms are not fully understood yet. Emerging chemical mutagenesis technology is currently striving to address the challenge of introducing protein post-translational modifications, while maintaining the stability and solubility of the proteins during the modifi… Show more

“…Chemical mutagenesis via Dha has enabled a range of applications. For example, designer chromatin-bearing biochemically relevant PTMs and their analogues have been generated by functionalizing Dha-containing histones; such investigations have furthered the understanding of how these PTMs are interpreted and edited. ,,, Similarly, mechanistic studies on the site-specific incorporation of phosphorylated Ser and Thr analogues into protein kinases have highlighted the chemical and geometrical features of phosphorylation and kinase activation in regulatory loops. , The same strategy has also been applied to probe the effect of PTMs in modulating amyloid-β peptide aggregation, which plays a role in Alzheimer’s disease . Non-natural amino acids that can be installed via Dha are also beneficial for protein engineering efforts; incorporation of nonstandard functional groups into active sites and binding pockets have been exploited to probe the role of hydrogen bonding in catalysis, to improve substrate recognition in enzymes and antibodies, and to generate de novo binding proteins, among others.…”
