Oriented Attachment and Membrane Reconstitution of His-Tagged CytochromecOxidase to a Gold Electrode:  In Situ Monitoring by Surface-Enhanced Infrared Absorption Spectroscopy

Abstract: Abstract:A novel concept is introduced for the oriented incorporation of membrane proteins into solid supported lipid bilayers. Recombinant cytochrome c oxidase solubilized in detergent was immobilized on a chemically modified gold surface via the affinity of its histidine-tag to a nickel-chelating nitrilo-triacetic acid (NTA) surface. The oriented protein monolayer was reconstituted into the lipid environment by detergent substitution. The individual steps of the surface modification, including (1) chemical m… Show more

“…Binding of SR II via the C-terminal His-tag to the Ni-NTA modified gold surface was carried out by incubating a 6 M solution of protein in 0.05% (wt/vol) n-dodecyl-␤-D-maltopyranoside (DDM) (pH 5.8, 20°C, 4 M NaCl, 50 mM phosphate buffer, in the case of SRII from H. s.) or a 4.0 M solution of protein in 0.02% DDM (pH 8.0, 20°C, 0.5M NaCl, 10 mM bis-Tris-propane buffer, in the case of SRII from N. p.) atop the Ni-NTA modified gold surface. Reconstitution of the membrane protein in the lipid bilayer by detergent removal (12) and the parallel addition of polar lipids from the purple membrane of H. s. (35) or phosphatidylcholine from egg yolk (Sigma) at a protein/lipid ratio of 1:20 stabilized the protein to achieve a good signal-to-noise ratio in the IR difference spectra by extensive signal averaging (vide infra). Saturation of protein binding to the modified surface occurred within Ϸ1.5 h. For light-induced IR difference spectroscopy, the protein was excited through a fiber optic by light from a 150 W tungsten lamp filtered by a narrow band filter (480 -505 nm) in the case of SRII from N. p. or by a light-emitting diode (LED; Luxeon Star) with the emission maximum at 497 nm (23 nm FWHM) and an intensity of 10 mW/cm 2 in the case of SRII from H. s.…”

“…On the other hand gold can be used as an electrode for the electrochemical studies of the immobilized proteins [31], where the mediated electrical communication of an enzyme [25,[32][33][34] or antibody orientation [35] or an allosteric protein [19,28] with the gold electrode can be finely tuned through protein orientations on the SAM.…”
