Résumé
Chemical cross-linking would conceivably cause structural disruption of a protein, but few cross-linkers have been fully evaluated in this aspect. Furthermore, integral membrane proteins may differ from soluble proteins in the selection of suitable cross-linkers, which has never been investigated. In this study, we systematically evaluated the impact of five conventional cross-linkers targeting Lys, Asp and Glu, and two Arg-reactive cross-linkers on the structural and functional integrity of two G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). Perturbation of the receptor structure and ligand-binding activity was observed, depending on the receptor and cross-linking conditions. In particular, our study demonstrated that the concentrations of PDH and KArGO need to be fine-tuned in order to minimize the structural and functional disturbance of specific GPCRs. A set of amenable cross-linkers was selected to acquire the most comprehensive cross-link maps for two GPCRs. Our in-depth cross-linking mass spectrometry (CXMS) analysis has revealed dynamic features of structural regions in GPCRs that are not observable in the crystal structures. Thus, CXMS analysis of GPCRs using the expanded toolkit would facilitate structural modeling of uncharacterized receptors and gain new insights into receptor-ligand interactions.
