发酵粘液乳杆菌A51胞外多糖翻转酶的结构性质及功能特性分析

Analysis of the Structural Properties and Functional Mechanism of the Extracellular Polysaccharide Flippase of Limosilactobacillus fermentum A51

  • 摘要: 为了探讨发酵粘液乳杆菌A51胞外多糖翻转酶(polysaccharide flippase,Wzx)的结构性质和功能特性,本文综合运用生物信息学技术对Wzx蛋白展开系统研究,首先通过多序列比对和系统发育树构建分析其进化特征,随后对其理化性质、亚细胞定位、功能域、亲/疏水特性、信号肽、跨膜区域、磷酸化修饰位点、糖基化修饰位点、高级结构以及作用方式进行预测分析。结果表明,Wzx由472个氨基酸编码,相对分子质量为53.31 kDa,原子总数为7651,理论等电点9.50,不稳定系数33.79,为碱性稳定疏水蛋白。Wzx无信号肽,在细胞膜上发挥翻转酶作用;经过跨膜域预测,发现存在14个跨膜螺旋结构;存在33个显著性磷酸化修饰位点,其中包含14 个丝氨酸(Ser)位点、12 个苏氨酸(Thr)位点以及7个酪氨酸(Tyr)位点;亚细胞定位及功能域预测中,Wzx主要定位在内质网(55.6%)上,属Multidrug and Toxic Compound Extrusion family。Wzx的二级结构中α-螺旋占61.44%、无规则卷曲占22.25%、延伸链占16.31%,根据Wzx的三维结构呈“V”状,推测其通过自身构象翻转或者是自身构象的改变从而实现对胞外多糖的转运。本研究为深入理解Wzx的功能特性及作用方式提供理论依据,对理解胞外多糖的转运具有重要意义。

     

    Abstract: In order to explore the structural and functional properties of the extracellular polysaccharide flippase Wzx from Lactobacillus fermentum A51, this paper systematically investigates the Wzx protein using bioinformatics technology. Firstly, the evolutionary characteristics of the Wzx protein are analyzed through multiple sequence alignment and the construction of a phylogenetic tree. Subsequently, the physicochemical properties, subcellular localization, functional domains, hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity, signal peptides, transmembrane regions, phosphorylation modification sites, glycosylation modification sites, advanced structure, and mode of action are predicted and analyzed. The results indicated that Wzx is composed of 472 amino acids, with a relative molecular mass of 53.31 kDa and a total atom count of 7651. The theoretical isoelectric point is 9.50, and the instability coefficient is 33.79, and it was an alkaline stable hydrophobic protein. Wzx lacks a signal peptide and functions as a flipping enzyme within the cell membrane. Following transmembrane domain prediction, it was determined that Wzx contains 14 transmembrane helix structures. A total of 33 significant phosphorylation sites were identified, comprising 14 serine (Ser) sites, 12 threonine (Thr) sites, and 7 tyrosine (Tyr) sites. Regarding subcellular localization and functional domain prediction, Wzx was predominantly localized in the endoplasmic reticulum (55.6%), indicating its membership in the Multidrug and Toxic Compound Extrusion family. In terms of the secondary structure of Wzx, α-helix constituted 61.44%, random coil accounted for 22.25%, and extended chain represented 16.31%, Based on the “V” shape of the three-dimensional structure of Wzx, it is speculated that it realizes the transport of extracellular polysaccharides through its own conformational reversal or its own conformational change. This study offers a theoretical foundation for a deeper understanding of the functional characteristics and mechanisms of action of Wzx, which is crucial for comprehending the transport processes of extracellular polysaccharides.
