Abstract

N-15 NMR relaxation and Xe-129 NMR chemical shift measurements offer complementary information to study weak protein-protein interactions. They have been applied to study the oligomerization equilibrium of a low-molecular-weight protein tyrosine phosphatase in the presence of 50 mM arginine and 50 mM glutamic acid. These experimental conditions are shown to enhance specific protein-protein interactions while decreasing nonspecific aggregation. In addition, Xe-129 NMR chemical shifts become selective reporters of one particular oligomer in the presence of arginine and glutamic acid, indicating that a specific Xe binding site is created in the oligomerization process. It is suggested that the multiple effects of arginine and glutamic acid are related to their effective excluded volume that favors specific protein association and the destabilization of partially unfolded forms that preferentially interact with xenon and are responsible for nonspecific protein aggregation.
