The Redox-Active Conopeptide Derived from the Venom Duct Transcriptome of Conus lividus Assists in the Oxidative Folding of Conotoxin

Abstract: The tetrapeptides Li504 and Li520, differing in the modification of the 4trans-hydroxylation of proline, are novel conopeptides derived from the venom duct transcriptome of the marine cone snail Conus lividus. These predicted mature peptides are homologous to the active site motif of oxidoreductases that catalyze the oxidation, reduction, and rearrangement of disulfide bonds in peptides and proteins. The estimated reduction potential of the disulfide of Li504 and Li520 is within the range of disulfide reductio… Show more

“…identified a new class of folding catalysts of conotoxins called "redox-active conopeptides". 24 These conopeptides are homologous to the active site motifs of redox family of proteins 47−49 and assist in the formation of correct disulfide connectivities in conotoxins. Unlike PDIase, CsPDIase, and PPI, redox conopeptides were expressed similarly to conotoxins as precursor prepropeptides with the mature peptides located at the C-terminus.…”

“…The redox conopeptide-assisted oxidative folding of α-conotoxin ImI was carried out as described previously. 24 The purified reduced αconotoxin ImI (50 μM) was incubated with the reduced conopeptides Fr874, Fr890[P1O], Fr890[P2O], Fr906, Am1038, and Am1054 (5 mM) in the redox buffer of 1:1 GSH/GSSG (1 mM each) and 100 mM NH 4 HCO 3 (pH 8). The folding reaction was performed at room temperature and at pH 8 for about 1−3 h. The reaction was quenched using acidification with TFA at regular intervals of time.…”

“…Genome mining of C. lividus and subsequent peptide synthesis afforded two tetrapeptide mature peptides Li504 1468 and Li520 1469 , the sequence and molecular modelling of which identified similarity with the active site motif of disulfide-associated oxidoreductases. 649 The latter peptide was able to assist the oxidative folding of α-conotoxin ImI, affording improved yield of the natively folded protein.…”
