Solvent Exposed Area (SEA)
http://www.cmbi.kun.nl/swift/future/aainfo/access.htm
Probability that a particular residue will be positioned in real proteins so that its solvent exposed area meets the particular criterion in the columns title.
The data for this table was calculated from data taken from 55 proteins in the Brookhaven data base, coming from 9 molecular families: globins, immunoglobins, cytochromes c, serine proteases, subtilisins, calcium binding proteins, acid proteases, toxins and virus capsid proteins. Red entries are found on the surface of a proteins on > 70% of occurrences and blue entries are found inside of a protein of < 20% of occurrences.
The only clear trend in this table is that some residues, such as R and K, locate themselves so that they have access to the solvent. The so-called hydrophobic residues, such as L and F, show no clear trend: they are found near the solvent as often as they are found buried.

Ionization of Amino Acids in water
For all amino acids, there are two modes of ionization depending on the pH of the aqueous medium: (1) uncharged at low pH, –1 at high pH (acid), or (2) +1 at low pH, uncharged at high pH (base).
From the Henderson-Hasselbalchequation:
90% or 99% of the functional group is deprotonated (or protonated) when the pH is 1 or 2 pH units above (below) the pK.

pH = pKa + log[base−]

[acid]= pKa − pH

pK2=9.6
The ionic properties of amino acids reflect the ionization of the COO–, NH3
+, and R-groups

(net charge 0)anion
When subjected to changes in pH, amino acids change from the protonated form with net positive charge in strongly acidic solution to the unprotonated form with net negative charge in strongly basic solution. During this transition, the amino acid will pass through a state with no net charge. The pH at which this occurs is the isoelectric point or pI. pI
can be calculated from pKa
values. For zwitteronic and acidic amino acids,
pI = 1/2(pK1+pK2). For basic
amino acids, pI =
1/2(pK2+pK3).

Limited rotation around the peptide bond – cis- and trans-
proline
The 19 amino-acids other than proline strongly prefer (>99.7%) to have the C–carbons in the trans- configuration. Proline shows a weaker preference, with about 5% of Xaa-Pro in the cis- configuration.

Strategies for Protein Sequencing (Proteomics)
• Classic “Edman” sequencing– PTC-conjugation to N-terminal amino-acid
– Cleave N-terminal peptide bond
– Identify PTH amino-acid
– Repeat 20 - 30 cycles
• Sequencing with Mass-Spectrometry– isolate protein (or use mixture of proteins)
– cleave with trypsin (proteins don’t “fly”)
– separate on HPLC– separate peptides in MS(1)
– fragment peptides in collision cell
– separate peptide fragments in MS(2)
Protein primary structure can be determined by chemical
methods and from gene sequences
Edman degradation
Time-of-flight mass spectrometry measures the mass of proteins and
peptides

Figure 1 Generic mass spectrometry (MS)-based proteomics experiment. The typical proteomics experiment consists of five stages. In stage 1, the proteins to be analysed are isolated from cell lysate or tissues by biochemical fractionation or affinity selection. This often includes a final step of one-dimensional gel electrophoresis, and defines the 'sub-proteome' to be analysed. MS of whole proteins is less sensitive than peptide MS and the mass of the intact protein by itself is insufficient for identification. Therefore, proteins are degraded enzymatically to peptides in stage 2, usually by trypsin, leading to peptides with C-terminally protonated amino acids, providing an advantage in subsequent peptide sequencing. In stage 3, the peptides are separated by one or more steps of high-pressure liquid chromatography in very fine capillaries and eluted into an electrospray ion source where they are nebulized in small, highly charged droplets. After evaporation, multiply protonated peptides enter the mass spectrometer and, in stage 4, a mass spectrum of the peptides eluting at this time point is taken (MS1 spectrum, or 'normal mass spectrum'). The computer generates a prioritized list of these peptides for fragmentation and a series of tandem mass spectrometric or 'MS/MS' experiments ensues (stage 5). These consist of isolation of a given peptide ion, fragmentation by energetic collision with gas, and recording of the tandem or MS/MS spectrum. The MS and MS/MS spectra are typically acquired for about one second each and stored for matching against protein sequence databases. The outcome of the experiment is the identity of the peptides and therefore the proteins making up the purified protein population.

FIG. 3. Tandem mass (MS/MS) spectra resulting
from analysis of a single spot on a 2D gel. The first
quadrupole selected a single mass-to-charge ratio ( m/z) of 687.2 (A) or 592.6 (B), while the collision cell was filled
with argon gas, and a voltage which caused the peptide to undergo fragmentation by CID was applied. The third quadrupole scanned the
mass range from 50 to 1,400 m/z. The computer program Sequest (8) was utilized to
match MS/MS spectra to amino acid sequence by
database searching. Both spectra matched peptides
from the same protein, S57593 (yeast hypothetical
protein YMR226C). Five other peptides from the same
analysis were matched to the
same protein.

Figure 3 Schematic representation of methods for stable-isotope protein labelling for quantitative proteomics. a, Proteins are labelled metabolically by culturing cells in media that are isotopically enriched (for example, containing 15N salts, or 13C-labelled amino acids) or isotopically depleted. b, Proteins are labelled at specific sites with isotopically encoded reagents. The reagents can also contain affinity tags, allowing for the selective isolation of the labelled peptides after protein digestion. The use of chemistries of different specificity enables selective tagging of classes of proteins containing specific functional groups. c, Proteins are isotopically tagged by means of enzyme-catalysed incorporation of 18O from 18O water during proteolysis. Each peptide generated by the enzymatic reaction carried out in heavy water is labelled at the carboxy terminal. In each case, labelled proteins or peptides are combined, separated and analysed by mass spectrometry and/or tandem mass spectrometry for the purpose of identifying the proteins contained in the sample and determining their relative abundance. The patterns of isotopic mass differences generated by each method are indicated schematically. The mass difference of peptide pairs generated by metabolic labelling is dependent on the amino acid composition of the peptide and is therefore variable. The mass difference generated by enzymatic 18O incorporation is either 4 Da or 2 Da, making quantitation difficult. The mass difference generated by chemical tagging is one or multiple times the mass difference encoded in the reagent used.

Correlation between Protein and mRNA Abundance in Yeast –
Conclusions
• Correlation between mRNA and protein levels insufficient to predict protein expression levels (but good for very abundant proteins)
• 20-fold change in protein with little change in mRNA
• no change in protein with 30-fold change in mRNA
• codon bias does not predict protein or mRNA levels (but abundant proteins have biased codons)
Review questions –1. List the 20 amino acids, with their 1-letter
and 3-letter abbreviations.2. What are some of the most common amino-acids?
Least common?3. Which amino acids contain hydroxyl groups that
can be phosphorylated? (Why is this important?)4. Which amino-acids contain aromatic rings? 5. Which amino-acids are more likely to be on the
outside of proteins? On the inside? Why?6. Which amino-acid is likely to change its charge
state with pH changes within the physiological range (pH 6.5 – 8.0)? Why?
7. Outline the steps required for MS/MS protein identification
8. Which MS/MS protein sequencing techniques require a comprehensive protein sequence database?
Questions from previous exams –
1. Pick an acidic or basic amino-acid. (a) name the amino-acid; (b) draw the charge-structure of the amino-acid for each of the charge-states that it can assume (the actual covalent structure need not be correct, focus on the ionizable groups); (c) suggest an approximate pK for each of the ionizable groups. (d) Indicate the most abundant charge-state at pH 7.0.
2. The carboxyl group of amino acid alanine has a pKa value of 2.4 . In order to have 99% of the alanine in its COO form, what must the numerical relation be between the pH of the solution and the pKa of the carboxyl group of alanine.
3. Pick 5 amino acids including some that are more common and some that are less common. Construct a "PAM" amino-acid similarity matrix using those 5 amino acids, using +5 or +3 for identities, +1 for "conserved" amino acids (amino acids with similar properties), and -2 or -5 for non-conservative amino acids.
