Abstract
En 中文
While natural protein-protein interactions have evolved to be induced by complex stimuli, rational design of interactions that can be switched-on-demand still remain challenging in the protein design world. Here, we demonstrate that a computationally redesigned natural interface for improved binding affinity could further be mutated to adopt a pH switchable interaction. The redesigned interface of Protein G/human IgG Fc domain (referred to as PrG/hIgG), when incorporated with histidine and glutamic acid on PrG (PrG-EHHE), showed a switch in binding affinity by 50-fold when the pH was altered from mild acidic to mild basic. The wild-type (WT) interface showed a negligible switch. The overall binding affinity under mild acidic pH for PrG-EHHE outperformed the wild-type PrG (PrG-WT) interaction. The new reagent PrG-EHHE can be revolutionary in IgG purification, since the standard method of using an extreme acidic pH for elution can be circumvented.
