FRET analysis of the temperature-induced structural changes in human TRPV3.

ABSTRACT: Transient receptor potential vanilloid member 3 (TRPV3) is an ion channel that plays a critical role in temperature sensing in skin. There have been active studies on how TRPV3, which is also known as one of the temperature-sensitive transient receptor potential (thermoTRP) channels, responds to temperature. However, the previous studies were mostly based on TRPV3 originating from mice or rats. Here, we focus on human TRPV3 (hTRPV3) and show that which domain of hTRPV3 undergoes conformational changes as temperature increases by Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) assay. During the heat-induced activation of hTRPV3, the linker domain close to C-terminus, that is, the C-terminal domain shows a largest structural change whereas there is little change in the ankyrin repeat domain (ARD). Interestingly, the activation of hTRPV3 by an agonist shows structural change patterns that are completely different from those observed during activation by heat; we observe structural changes in ARD and S2-S3 linker after ligand stimulation whereas relatively little change is observed when stimulated by heat. Our results provide insight into the thermal activation of hTRPV3 channel.

Project description:Förster resonance energy transfer (FRET) is a widely used method for monitoring interactions between or within biological macromolecules conjugated with suitable donor-acceptor pairs. Donor fluorescence lifetimes in absence and presence of acceptor molecules are often measured for the observation of FRET. However, these lifetimes may originate from interacting and noninteracting molecules, which hampers quantitative interpretation of FRET data. We describe a methodology for the detection of FRET that monitors the rise time of acceptor fluorescence on donor excitation thereby detecting only those molecules undergoing FRET. The large advantage of this method, as compared to donor fluorescence quenching method used more commonly, is that the transfer rate of FRET can be determined accurately even in cases where the FRET efficiencies approach 100% yielding highly quenched donor fluorescence. Subsequently, the relative orientation between donor and acceptor chromophores is obtained from time-dependent fluorescence anisotropy measurements carried out under identical conditions of donor excitation and acceptor detection. The FRET based calcium sensor Yellow Cameleon 3.60 (YC3.60) was used because it changes its conformation on calcium binding, thereby increasing the FRET efficiency. After mapping distances and orientation angles between the FRET moieties in YC3.60, cartoon models of this FRET sensor with and without calcium could be created. Independent support for these representations came from experiments where the hydrodynamic properties of YC3.60 under ensemble and single-molecule conditions on selective excitation of the acceptor were determined. From rotational diffusion times as found by fluorescence correlation spectroscopy and consistently by fluorescence anisotropy decay analysis it could be concluded that the open structure (without calcium) is flexible as opposed to the rather rigid closed conformation. The combination of two independent methods gives consistent results and presents a rapid and specific methodology to analyze structural and dynamical changes in a protein on ligand binding.
