The lipid mediator lysophosphatidic acid induces folding of disordered peptides with basic amphipathic character into rare conformations
Abstract Membrane-active, basic amphipathic peptides represent a class of biomolecules with diverse functions. Sequentially close protein segments also show similar behaviour in several ways. Here we investigated the effect of the lipid mediator lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) on the conformation of str...

Abstract Membrane-active, basic amphipathic peptides represent a class of biomolecules with diverse functions. Sequentially close protein segments also show similar behaviour in several ways. Here we investigated the effect of the lipid mediator lysophosphatidic acid (LPA) on the conformation of structurally disordered peptides including extracellular antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), and calmodulin-binding motifs derived from cytosolic and membrane target proteins. The interaction with associated LPA resulted in gain of ordered secondary structure elements, which for most cases were previously uncharacteristic of the particular peptide. Results revealed mechanism of the LPA-peptide interactions with regulation of the lipid on peptide conformation and oligomerization in a concentration-dependent manner involving (1) relocation of tryptophan residues into the lipid cluster, (2) multiple contacts between the binding partners dictated by complex driving forces, (3) multiple peptide binding to LPA associates with an affinity in the low micromolar range, and (4) selectivity for LPA compared with structurally related lipids. In line with recent findings showing endogenous molecules inducing structural changes in AMPs, we propose that accumulation of LPA in signalling or pathological processes might modulate host-defense activity or trigger certain processes by direct interaction with cationic amphipathic peptide sequences. |
