The average sizes of these heterogeneous systems, quantified by the radius of gyration ( ), can be measured by small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS). Another parameter, the mean dye-to-dye distance ( ) for proteins with fluorescently labeled termini, can be estimated using single-molecule Förster resonance energy transfer (smFRET). A number of studies have reported inconsistencies in inferences drawn from the two sets of measurements for the dimensions of unfolded proteins and IDPs in the absence of chemical denaturants. These differences are typically attributed to the influence of fluorescent labels used in smFRET and to the impact of high concentrations and averaging features of SAXS. By measuring the dimensions of a collection of labeled and unlabeled polypeptides using smFRET and SAXS, we directly assessed the contributions of dyes to the experimental values and For chemically denatured proteins we obtain mutual consistency in our inferences based on and , whereas for IDPs under native conditions, we find substantial deviations. Using computations, we show that discrepant inferences are neither due to methodological shortcomings of specific measurements nor due to artifacts of dyes. Instead, our analysis suggests that chemical heterogeneity in heteropolymeric systems leads to a decoupling between and that is amplified in the absence of denaturants. Therefore, joint assessments of and combined with measurements of polymer shapes should provide a consistent and complete picture of the underlying ensembles.

Result

Type of curve: merged
Comments: The protein contains a penultimate non-canonical amino acid p-acetylphenylalanine (207 Da) that is represented as U (selenocysteine, 168 Da) in the amino acid sequence for the entry. Therefore, the calculated MW from sequence (MW(expected)) must be adjusted accordingly (ca. 40 Da).
