Popis: |
Proteolysis is a key catalytic event in protein and thus cellular homeostasis. Despite the importance and wide implications of proteolytic processing and degradation, methods describing the degradation of folded proteins at high temporal and spatial resolution are not well established. However, this information is required to obtain a deep mechanistic understanding of proteolytic events and their consequences. Here, we describe an integrated method comprising time-resolved mass spectrometry, circular dichroism spectroscopy and bioinformatics to reveal the sequential degradation and unfolding of the model substrate annexin A1 by the human serine protease HTRA1. This workflow represents a general strategy for obtaining precise molecular insights into protease-substrate interactions that can be conveniently adapted to studying other posttranslational modifications such as phosphorylation in dynamic protein complexes. |
