An integrated computational methodology for interpreting NMR spin relaxation in proteins has been developed. It combines a two-body coupled-rotator stochastic model with a hydrodynamics-based approach for protein diffusion, together with molecular dynamics based calculations for the evaluation of the coupling potential of mean force. The method is applied to ¹⁵N relaxation of N-H bonds in the Rho GTPase binding (RBD) domain of plexin-B1, which exhibits intricate internal mobility. Bond vector dynamics are characterized by a rhombic local ordering tensor, S, with principal values S₀² and S₂², and an axial local diffusion tensor, D₂, with principal values D(2,||) and D(2,⊥). For α-helices and β-sheets we find that S₀² ~ -0.5 (strong local ordering), -1.2 < S₂² < -0.8 (large S tensor anisotropy), D(2,⊥) ~ D₁ = 1.93 × 10⁷ s⁻¹ (D₁ is the global diffusion rate), and log(D(2,||)/D₁) ~ 4. For α-helices the z-axis of the local ordering frame is parallel to the C(α)-C(α) axis. For β-sheets the z-axes of the S and D₂ tensors are parallel to the N-H bond. For loops and terminal chain segments the local ordering is generally weaker and more isotropic. On average, D(2,⊥) ~ D₁ also, but log(D(2,||)/D₁) is on the order of 1-2. The tensor orientations are diversified. This study sets forth an integrated computational approach for treating NMR relaxation in proteins by combining stochastic modeling and molecular dynamics. The approach developed provides new insights by its application to a protein that experiences complex dynamics.
已经开发出一种用于解释蛋白质中 NMR 自旋弛豫的综合计算方法。它将二体耦合转子随机模型与基于流体力学的蛋白质扩散方法相结合,同时基于分子动力学计算评估平均力耦合势。该方法应用于 plexin-B1 的 Rho GTPase 结合 (RBD) 结构域中 N-H 键的 ¹⁵N 弛豫,该结构域表现出复杂的内部运动。键向量动力学的特征是菱形局部有序张量 S,其主值为 S₀²和 S₂²,以及轴向局部扩散张量 D₂,其主值为 D(2,||)和 D(2,⊥)。对于 α-螺旋和 β-折叠,我们发现 S₀²-0.5(强局部有序),-1.2 < S₂²<-0.8(大 S 张量各向异性),D(2,⊥)D₁=1.93×10⁷ s⁻¹(D₁是全局扩散速率),并且 log(D(2,||)/D₁)4。对于 α-螺旋,局部有序框架的 z 轴与 C(α)-C(α) 轴平行。对于 β-折叠,S 和 D₂张量的 z 轴与 N-H 键平行。对于环和末端链段,局部有序性通常较弱且各向同性更强。平均而言,D(2,⊥)D₁也如此,但 log(D(2,||)/D₁)的量级约为 1-2。张量取向多样化。这项研究通过结合随机建模和分子动力学,提出了一种综合计算方法来处理蛋白质中的 NMR 弛豫。该方法通过应用于经历复杂动力学的蛋白质,提供了新的见解。
