Chemical Cross Linking

Calmodulin is an EF hand calcium binding protein. Its binding affinities to various protein/peptide targets often depend on the conformational changes induced by the binding of calcium. One such target is melittin, which binds tightly to calmodulin in the presence of calcium, and inhibits its function. Chemical cross-linking combined with Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry has been employed to investigate the coordination of calmodulin and melittin in the complex at different concentrations of calcium. This methodology can be used to monitor structural changes in proteins induced by ligand binding and to study the effects these changes have on non-covalent interactions between proteins. Cross-linking results indicate that the binding place of the first melittin in the calcium-free calmodulin form is the same as in the calcium-loaded calmodulin/melittin complex.

Chemical Cross Linking

Chemical cross-linking—an established technique in protein chemistry—has re-emerged, in combination with mass spectrometric analysis of the reaction products, as a valuable tool to identify interacting amino acid sequences in protein complexes. In the present study, we are mapping the interface of the calcium-dependent complex between calmodulin (CaM) and a peptide derived from the C-terminal region of adenylyl cyclase 8 (AC 8). Cross-linking reactions are performed using the two amine-reactive, isotope-labeled ( d0 and d4) cross-linkers BS3 ( bis[sulfosuccinimidyl]suberate) and BS2G ( bis[sulfosuccinimidyl]glutarate) as well as the “zero-length” cross-linker (EDC, ethyl-3-[3-dimethylaminopropyl] carbodiimide hydrochloride). After separation of the cross-linking reaction mixtures by one-dimensional gel electrophoresis (sodium dodecyl sulphate polyacrylamide gel) and in-gel digestion of the cross-linked complexes, the resulting peptide mixtures are analyzed by nano-high-performance liquid chromatography/nano-electrospray ionization Fourier transform ion cyclotron resonance mass spectrometry. The identified intermolecular cross-linking products will give further insight into calmodulin/adenylyl cyclase 8 interaction.
