Title: Molecular Aspects of Soluble Guanylate Cyclase Activation and Stimulator Function.

Abstract: Soluble guanylate cyclases (sGCs) are heme-containing, gas-sensing proteins which catalyze the formation of cGMP from GTP. In humans, sGCs are highly selective sensors of nitric oxide (NO) and play a ...Soluble guanylate cyclases (sGCs) are heme-containing, gas-sensing proteins which catalyze the formation of cGMP from GTP. In humans, sGCs are highly selective sensors of nitric oxide (NO) and play a critical role in NO-based regulation of cardiovascular and pulmonary function. The physiological importance of sGC signaling has led to the development of drugs, known as stimulators and activators, which increase sGC catalytic function. Here we characterize a newly developed stimulator, CYR715, which is a particularly potent stimulator of () sGC catalytic function even in the absence of NO, increasing activity of the NO-free enzyme to 45% of full catalytic activity. CYR715 also increased the catalytic activity of sGC βC122A and βC122S variants, with a marked stimulation of the NO-free βC122S variant to 74% of maximum. High-resolution cryo-electron microscopy structures were solved for CYR715 bound to sGC βC122S revealing that CYR715 occupies the same binding site as the characterized sGC stimulators YC-1 and riociguat. Additionally, the core scaffold of CYR715 makes a binding interaction with βC78 while the flexible tail can interact with αR429 or βY7 and E361. Conformational extension of sGC following NO, YC-1, or CYR715 binding was characterized using small-angle X-ray scattering, revealing that while ligand binding results in sGC extension this extension does not directly correlate to observed activity. This suggests that not all conformational extensions of sGC result in increased catalytic activity, and that effective stimulators assist in converting extension into catalytic function.

The grid was blotted for 4 s with Whatman #1 filter paper and then plunge-frozen in liquid ethane with a Mark IV Vitrobot (ThermoFisher) at 4 C and 100% humidity..
DetailsSamples were prepared in a Coy anaerobic chamber at RT. Protein was thawed at 4 C, reduced with 10 mM Na2S2O4 for 15 minutes at RT, and desalted using a Zeba spin column equilibrated with Buffer, 0.22 um filtered. Protein samples were then diluted to 10 uM in equivalent buffer but with addition of 0.5 mM FOM. Additionally, 250 uM CYR715 (stimulator) and 1 mM GpCpp (non-hydrolyzable substrate-analog) were added to the sample before freezing.

Jan 31, 2019. EMDB accession codes are about to change! (news from PDBe EMDB page)

EMDB accession codes are about to change! (news from PDBe EMDB page)

  • The allocation of 4 digits for EMDB accession codes will soon come to an end. Whilst these codes will remain in use, new EMDB accession codes will include an additional digit and will expand incrementally as the available range of codes is exhausted. The current 4-digit format prefixed with “EMD-” (i.e. EMD-XXXX) will advance to a 5-digit format (i.e. EMD-XXXXX), and so on. It is currently estimated that the 4-digit codes will be depleted around Spring 2019, at which point the 5-digit format will come into force.
  • The EM Navigator/Yorodumi systems omit the EMD- prefix.
