  • The flexible conformations of a multidomain protein are responsible for its biological functions. Although MurD, a 47-kDa protein that consists of three domains, sequentially changes its domain conformation from an open form to a closed form through a semiclosed form in its enzymatic reaction, the domain dynamics in each conformation remains unclear. In this study, we verify the conformational dynamics of MurD in the corresponding three states (apo and ATP- and inhibitor-bound states) with a combination of small-angle x-ray and neutron scattering (SAXS and SANS), dynamic light scattering (DLS), neutron backscattering (NBS), neutron spin echo (NSE) spectroscopy, and molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. Applying principal component analysis of the MD trajectories, twisting and open-closed domain modes are identified as the major collective coordinates. The deviations of the experimental SAXS profiles from the theoretical calculations based on the known crystal structures become smaller in the ATP-bound state than in the apo state, and a further decrease is evident upon inhibitor binding. These results suggest that domain motions of the protein are suppressed step by step of each ligand binding. The DLS and NBS data yield collective and self-translational diffusion constants, respectively, and we used them to extract collective domain motions in nanometer and nanosecond scales from the NSE data. In the apo state, MurD shows both twisting and open-closed domain modes, whereas an ATP binding suppresses twisting domain motions, and a further reduction of open-closed mode is seen in the inhibitor-binding state. These observations are consistent with the structure modifications measured by the small-angle scattering as well as the MD simulations. Such changes in the domain dynamics associated with the sequential enzymatic reactions should be related to the affinity and reaction efficiency with a ligand that binds specifically to each reaction state.
