General strategy for site-specific chemical labeling of proteins in vivo. (a) Living cells are transfected with DNA encoding a protein of interest (POI) fused to a receptor domain. (b) Upon expression of the receptor fusion, a cell-permeable small molecule probe consisting of a ligand coupled to a detectable tag is added to cell growth medium. (c) Protein function is analyzed in the living cells via fluorescent microscopy or other detection methods. Green fluorescent protein (GFP) and other fluorescent proteins have the advantage of being completely genetically encodable. However, the large size of GFP (25 kDa) can This approach relies upon the subnanomolar affinity between a short tetracysteine peptide (CCXXCC, where X is any amino acid except cysteine) and a biarsenical compound such as 4',5'-bis(1,3,2dithioarsolan-2-yl)fluorescein (FlAsH). 1) biarsenical derivatives show a dramatic increase in fluorescence upon binding to their target, minimizing background noise in labeling experiments. 2) the tetracysteine motif is sufficiently small that it can be fused not only to the N or C terminus of a protein, but it can also be incorporated into loops or on the outer surface of a helices with little chance of the tag interfering with target protein function. 3) it allows the fluorescence detection to be confirmed by electron microscopy. ReAsH localized to the tetracysteine fusion protein photoconverts diaminobinzidine into an electronrich precipitate. Recently, it was demonstrated that FlAsH and ReAsH can be used as mediators of chromophore-assisted Limitations : 1) the background fluorescence in biarsenical-labeled cells is high due to the nonspecific labeling of cysteine-rich proteins. 2) the cysteines of the receptor tag must be in reduced form making labeling of proteins in Fluorescently labeled O6-benzylguanine derivatives irreversibly and specifically label human O6-alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase (hAGT) fused to target proteins and expressed in mammalian cells hAGT, at ca. 25 kDa, is comparable in size to GFP, and should thus be similarly non-interfering of target protein function. Drawback : it can only be applied for labeling proteins in hAGT-deficient cell lines, as the benzyl guanine substrates fluorescently labeled DHFR inhibitors dihydrofolate reductase (DHFR), an 18 kDa monomeric enzyme fusions of the Escherichia coli form of DHFR (eDHFR) were labeled with fluorescent Mtx. DHFR-deficient CHO cells transiently expressing fusions of eDHFR localized to the plasma membrane or nucleus could be effectively labeled by incubating the cells Caged Proteins and Protein Ligation Caged Protein : activity masked until subjected to illumination with light Expressed Protein Ligation : taking advantage of the biosynthesis of -thioester and N-terminal cysteine protein fragments, EPL readily enables the addition of unnatural functionality to a recombinant protein framework, thereby extending the concept of ligation to proteins of all sizes A conceptually simple strategy is to carry out chemical modification in vitro and then to deliver the modified protein to the desired biological context. Although microinjection of pre-made protein analogs has been successful in some situations, in general it will be desirable to carry out chemical modification directly in living cells because many proteins, such as membrane proteins, are not easily manipulated in vitro. non-hydrolyzable phosphorylated tyrosine mimetic. non-hydrolyzable phosphorylated Ser/Thr photocaged phosphorylated Serine Cysteinyl Biotin Cysteine thioester Expressed Protein Ligation Characteristic positions of intein motifs and numbering. The inserted intein carries the N-terminal extein (left shaded box) and the C-terminal extein (right shaded box). The residues important for the splicing process as well as the conserved segment blocks (A, B, C, D, E, H, F, G) and some internal intein key amino acids are depicted in the one letter code within the certain segments (bold black). Numbering of the amino acids of a precursor protein is made in the following way: the intein's N-terminal amino acid (Cys, etc.) is numbered as 1 whereas the C-terminal amino acid of the N-terminal extein is numbered as -1 and the N-terminal residue of the C-terminal extein is numbered beginning with +1. Inteins can be divided into four classes: the maxi inteins (with integrated endonuclease domain), mini inteins (lacking the endonuclease domain), trans-splicing inteins (where Mechanism of intein-mediated protein splicing. In the initial step a thioester intermediate is formed by an NS-acyl shift at the N-terminal Cys of the intein (Cys1). Transthioesterification by a nucleophilic attack of the sidechain of the N-terminal Cys of the C-extein (Cys+1) on the thioester is formed in the first step and results in a branched intermediate. Peptide bond cleavage coupled to succinimide formation of the C-terminal inteinAsp releases the intein. The knotted exteins undergo a spontaneous SN-acyl shift and yield a peptide bond. Mutation of Cys1 to Ala prevents splicing at the N-terminus and leads to a C-terminal extein bonded with the intein. C-terminal splicing cannot occur when the C-terminal Asn is b tit t d b Al id d th exploits intein-based splicing to yield purified proteins with C-terminal thioesters. The thioester is then reacted with derivatized cysteines to append peptides, affinity labels or fluorophores to the protein of interest expressing a target protein with the first half of the naturally occurring Ssp DnaE split intein fused to its C-terminus. The second half of the split intein covalently linked to a small-molecule probe and a protein transduction domain (PTD) peptide is added to the cell growth media. Upon entering the cell, the PTD, linked to the probe-derivatized intein half via a disulfide bond, is released. The split intein halves combine and self-splice, leaving the protein of interest labeled at its C-terminus with the probe. Any synthetic molecule that can enter cell Cell permeable synthetic fragment containing an Nterminal Cys Bulk of the protein of interest is expressed in cells, fused to a modified intein advantage : the reaction between the recombinant and synthetic pieces is exquisitely specific, owing to the requirement for intein reconstitution in vivo. Effective design criteria for site-specific protein labeling in living systems : • Receptor moieties must be amenable to genetic encoding as fusions to the protein of interest. • The receptors must be relatively small so as to not perturb protein function — an ideal receptor would be a short peptide sequence that could be inserted into various locations within the protein. • Chemical probes should bind receptors with high specificity and stability so as to enable functional studies over a time-scale of hours with no background noise. • Probes should be designed in a modular fashion so that a wide variety of fluorophores, affinity labels or other functional moieties can be easily linked. • The kinetics of cell loading and receptor binding should be fast enough (on the order of minutes) to facilitate the most time-sensitive biological assays. • A variety of complementary probe–receptor pairs will be needed to enable the simultaneous study of multiple target proteins. an unnatural amino acid is inserted site-specifically into a protein of interest by infiltration of the protein biosynthetic pathway. A nonsense codon in the mRNA encoding the protein of interest is recognized by a suppressor tRNA charged with an unnatural amino acid. In the chemical approach, the tRNA is aminoacylated in vitro and subsequently delivered to cells. In the biosynthetic approach, an orthogonal aminoacyltRNA synthetase (aaRS) that charges only a mutant suppressor tRNA is expressed in cells. Either the unnatural amino acid must be delivered to the cells, or the Nonsense suppression Nonsense suppression enables an unnatural amino acid to be incorporated site-specifically into a protein, provided that the amino acid can be accepted by the ribosome The new functionality can be a Bump-and-hole strategy A sensitized enzyme is made by mutagenesis to form a cavity at or near the active site. An inhibitor is derivitized with a bulky substituent that complements the cavity in the sensitized enzyme, but does not bind to the wild-type enzyme, resulting in selective inhibition of the sensitized enzyme. The bumped kinase inhibitor NM-PP1 that has been used to inhibit -Ca2+/calmodulindependent kinase II (CaMKII) is shown in the inset judicious mutations of residues near the active site of a protein are made to sensitize it to chemically modified Bump-and-hole strategy The bump-and-hole strategy has been also used in an alternative format to enable the specific labeling and identification of enzyme substrates. A single phenylalanine to glycine mutation in the ATPbinding pocket of Cdk1 enables the kinase to use N6(benzyl)ATP, an analog that is not accepted by wild-type kinases. Incubating yeast extract with N6-(benzyl)ATP radiolabeled at the -phosphate and Cdk1-Clb2 resulted in the specific phosphorylation of many proteins. judicious mutations of residues near the active site of a protein are made to sensitize it to chemically modified Conditional protein splicing A protein is split into two fragments (X and Y) that are inactive on their own. The fragments are expressed in cells, each fused to one-half of a split intein and to either FK506-binding protein 12 (FKBP) or FKBP-rapamycin binding protein (FRB) as shown. On addition of the chemical inducer of dimerization (CID) rapamycin (inset), the intein halves are reconstituted, leading to the joining of fragments X and Y in a traceless fashion Chemical rescue of protein degradation. The protein of interest is expressed as a fusion with FRB*, which is constitutively degraded by the proteasome. Addition of the CID C20-MaRap (inset) results in the dimerization of FKBP with Chemically induced protein degradation. An endogenous target protein is recruited to a ubiquitin ligase complex on the addition of a bifunctional small molecule (Protac).

Recombinant HAUb75-intein-chitin binding domain (CBD) fusion protein was bound to a chitin affinity column; on-column cleavage of the HAUbintein junction was induced by the addition of -mercaptoethane sulfonic acid (MESNa). The resulting HAUb75MESNa thioester was reacted with a desired C-terminal thiol-reactive group, generating the desired HAUb-derived probe. Chemistry-based techniques for studying protein function in vivo. A Universal Strategy for Proteomic Studies of SUMO and Other Ubiquitin-like Modifiers. Mol Cell Proteomics. 2005;4(1):56-72 A Proteomic Strategy for Gaining Insights into Protein Sumoylation in Yeast Mol Cell Proteomics. 2005 Mar;4(3):246-254 SUMO-conjugated proteins were isolated by a double-affinity purification procedure from a Saccharomyces cerevisiae strain engineered to express tagged SUMO. The components of the isolated protein mixture were then identified by subsequent LC-MS/MS analysis using an LTQ FT mass spectrometer. By combining the tools of affinity purification and MS, substrates, associated proteins, and, in many cases, conjugation sites have been determined. Similar strategies have also been employed to identify other components of these pathways. For example, proteasomalassociated proteins were identified by tagging proteasomal components at the genetic level, purifying the tagged complexes, and identifying associated polypeptides.
