Abstract
Protein conformational changes are frequently essential for enzyme catalysis, and in several cases, shown to be the limiting factor for overall catalytic speed. However, a structural understanding of corresponding transition states, needed to rationalize the kinetics, remains obscure due to their fleeting nature. Here, we determine the transition-state ensemble of the rate-limiting conformational transition in the enzyme adenylate kinase, by a synergistic approach between experimental high-pressure NMR relaxation during catalysis and molecular dynamics simulations. By comparing homologous kinases evolved under ambient or high pressure in the deep-sea, we detail transition state ensembles that differ in solvation as directly measured by the pressure dependence of catalysis. Capturing transition-state ensembles begins to complete the catalytic energy landscape that is generally characterized by structures of all intermediates and frequencies of transitions among them.

High-pressure is a well-known perturbation method used to destabilize globular proteins and dissociate protein complexes or aggregates. The heterogeneity of the response to pressure offers a unique opportunity to dissect the thermodynamic contributions to protein stability. In addition, pressure perturbation is generally reversible, which is essential...

Outer surface protein A (OspA) is a crucial protein in the infection of Borrelia burgdorferi causing Lyme disease. We studied conformational fluctuations of OspA with high-pressure 15N/1H two-dimensional NMR along with high-pressure fluorescence spectroscopy. We found evidence within folded, native OspA for rapid local fluctuations of the...
