摘　　要：脱水素是一类植物抗逆相关蛋白,可帮助植物抵抗干旱、低温、盐碱等环境胁迫。富含赖氨酸的K片段是脱水素中的保守功能片段,在低温保护和膜保护功能中起至关重要的作用。目前,脱水素及K片段的作用机理仍不完全清楚。本研究采用圆二色谱(CD)和核磁共振波谱(NMR)方法及分子动力学模拟计算研究了具有抗菌活性的大米脱水素K片段在模拟膜中的三维结构及其与膜的结合方式。圆二色谱研究表明,水中呈现无规卷曲构象的K片段在模拟膜中会形成α-螺旋结构。核磁共振结构研究进一步证实了K片段在模拟膜中的空间结构,即中间部分形成了两亲性的α-螺旋结构,其中,疏水残基位于螺旋结构的一面,亲水残基位于螺旋结构的另一面。扩散排序(DOSY)核磁共振实验表明,K片段与膜在水溶液中形成了稳定的结合体;顺磁性探针检测表明,整个K片段插入膜中,其中疏水面朝向模拟膜的疏水核,其它部分朝向模拟膜亲水表层。本研究得到的K片段在模拟膜中的精细结构为理解环境胁迫下K片段及脱水素与膜的作用机理提供了重要信息。Dehydrins are well associated with the abiotic stress tolerance of the plants,such as dehydration,salt stress and cold stress.They include a highly conserved lysine-rich motif called K-segment,which is believed to play a significant role in dehydrin function.The K-segment shows in vitro antibacterial activity against Gram-positive bacteria like its full-length dehydrin protein.In this study,the structures of the K-segment from rice dehydrin have been investigated by CD spectroscopy,NMR and molecular dynamic simulation.The results reveal that the K-segment is disordered in aqueous solution,but adopts helical structure in mimetic membrane environment,sodium dodecyl sulfate(SDS)micelles.The central region of K-segment forms an a-helix and exhibits amphipathic arrangement,where hydrophobic residues locate on one side and hydrophilic residues are on the other side.The amphipathic feature allows the helix region of the K-segment to insert into the SDS micelles,resulting in stable association with mimetic membrane.To realize the energy minimization,the hydrophobic side of the helix faces to the hydrophobic core of SDS micelles,and the hydrophilic side of the helix faces to the surface of micelles.The precise 3D structure and orientation information of the K-segment obtained in this work might provide new insights in understanding the structure-function relationship of dehydrins.
