Abstract:
Abstract Intracellular aggregates of superoxide dismutase 1 (SOD1) are associated with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis. In vivo, aggregation occurs in a complex and dense molecular environment with chemically heterogeneous surfaces. To investigate how SOD1 fibril formation is affected by surfaces, we used an in vitro model system enabling us to vary the molecular features of both SOD1 and the surfaces, as well as the surface area. We compared fibril formation in hydrophilic and hydrophobic sample wells, as a function of denaturant concentration and extraneous hydrophobic surface area. In the presence of hydrophobic surfaces, SOD1 unfolding promotes fibril nucleation. By contrast, in the presence of hydrophilic surfaces, increasing denaturant concentration retards the onset of fibril formation. We conclude that the mechanism of fibril formation depends on the surrounding surfaces and that the nucleating species might correspond to different conformational states of SOD1 depending on the nature of these surfaces.

Abstract:
Protein surface motifs, which can be defined as commonly appearing patterns of shape and physical properties in protein molecular surfaces, can be considered "possible active sites". We have developed a system for mining surface motifs: SUMOMO which consists of two phases: surface motif extraction and surface motif filtering. In the extraction phase, a given set of protein molecular surface data is divided into small surfaces called unit surfaces. After extracting several common unit surfaces as candidate motifs, they are repetitively merged into surface motifs. However, a large amount of surface motifs is extracted in this phase, making it difficult to distinguish whether the extracted motifs are significant to be considered active sites. Since active sites from proteins with a particular function have similar shape and physical properties, proteins can be classified based on similarity among local surfaces. Thus, in the filtering phase, local surfaces extracted from proteins of the same group are considered significant motifs, and the rest are filtered out. The proposed method was applied to discover surface motifs from 15 proteins belonging to four function groups. Motifs corresponding to all 4 known functional sites were recognised.

Abstract:
Whereas proteins generally remain stable upon interaction with biological surfaces, they frequently unfold on and adhere to artificial surfaces. Understanding the physicochemical origins of this discrepancy would facilitate development of protein-based sensors and other technologies that require surfaces that do not compromise protein structure and function. To date, however, only a small number of such artificial surfaces have been reported, and the physics of why these surfaces support functional biomolecules while others do not has not been established. Thus motivated, we have developed an electrochemical approach to determining the folding free energy of proteins site-specifically attached to chemically well-defined, macroscopic surfaces. Comparison with the folding free energies seen in bulk solution then provides a quantitative measure of the extent to which surface interactions alter protein stability. As proof-of-principle, we have characterized the FynSH3 domain site-specifically attached to a hydroxyl-coated surface. Upon guanidinium chloride denaturation, the protein unfolds in a reversible, two-state manner with a free energy within 2 kJ/mol of the value seen in bulk solution. Assuming that excluded volume effects stabilize surface-attached proteins, this observation suggests there are countervening destabilizing interactions with the surface that, under these conditions, are similar in magnitude. Our technique constitutes an unprecedented experimental tool with which to answer long-standing questions regarding the molecular-scale origins of protein−surface interactions and to facilitate rational optimization of surface biocompatibility.

Abstract:
Biomaterials, once inserted in the oral cavity, become immediately covered by a layer of adsorbed proteins that consists mostly of salivary proteins but also of plasma proteins if the biomaterial is placed close to the gingival margin or if it becomes implanted into tissue and bone. It is often this protein layer, rather than the pristine biomaterial surface, that is subsequently encountered by colonizing bacteria or attaching tissue cells. Thus, to study this important initial protein adsorption from human saliva and serum and how it might be influenced through chemical modification of the biomaterial surface, we have measured the amount of protein adsorbed and analyzed the composition of the adsorbed protein layer using gel electrophoresis and western blotting. Here, we have developed an in vitro model system based on silica surfaces, chemically modified with 7 silane-based self-assembled monolayers that span a broad range of physicochemical properties, from hydrophilic to hydrophobic surfaces (water contact angles from 15° to 115°), low to high surface free energy (12 to 57 mN/m), and negative to positive surface charge (zeta potentials from –120 to +40 mV at physiologic pH). We found that the chemical surface functionalities exerted a substantial effect on the total amounts of proteins adsorbed; however, no linear correlation of the adsorbed amounts with the physicochemical surface parameters was observed. Only the adsorption behavior of a few singular protein components, from which physicochemical data are available, seems to follow physicochemical expectations. Examples are albumin in serum and lysozyme in saliva; in both, adsorption was favored on countercharged surfaces. We conclude from these findings that in complex biofluids such as saliva and serum, adsorption behavior is dominated by the overall protein-binding capacity of the surface rather than by specific physicochemical interactions of single protein entities with the surface.

Abstract:
The profile and conformation of proteins that are adsorbed onto a polymeric biomaterial surface have a profound effect on its in vivo performance. Cells and tissue recognize the protein layer rather than directly interact with the surface. The chemistry and morphology of a polymer surface will govern the protein behaviour. So, by controlling the polymer surface, the biocompatibility can be regulated. Nanoscale surface features are known to affect the protein behaviour, and in this overview the nanostructure of self-assembled block copolymers will be harnessed to control protein behaviour. The nanostructure of a block copolymer can be controlled by manipulating the chemistry and arrangement of the blocks. Random, A–B and A–B–A block copolymers composed of methyl methacrylate copolymerized with either acrylic acid or 2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate will be explored. Using atomic force microscopy (AFM), the surface morphology of these block copolymers will be characterized. Further, AFM tips functionalized with proteins will measure the adhesion of that particular protein to polymer surfaces. In this manner, the influence of block copolymer morphology on protein adhesion can be measured. AFM tips functionalized with antibodies to fibronectin will determine how the surfaces will affect the conformation of fibronectin, an important parameter in evaluating surface biocompatibility.

Abstract:
This thesis is concerned with the fundamental principles affecting protein adsorption. The effects of surface chemistry and topography on protein adsorption characteristics have been identified and quantified. Particular attention has been made to understand how the conformation of surface-bound proteins was affected by the surface onto which they adsorbed. Quartz crystal microbalance (QCM), UV-Vis spectroscopy and fluorometry were used to assess protein-surface affinity and amounts of protein adsorbed at surface saturation levels. Infrared spectroscopy was used to quantify protein conformational changes incurred upon adsorption. A fluorescent assay protocol was developed for use as an external calibration method for the quantification of adsorbed protein an d the results obtained were compared with QCM and an amido black protein assay of the same systems. Model experiments were performed using bovine fibrinogen (an elongated molecule) and albumin (a globular molecule) adsorbing onto flat hydrophilic (OH terminated) and hydrophobic (CH3 terminated) surfaces in the first instance, but later superhydrophilic and superhydrophobic surfaces were also studied. Surface curvature on the nano-scale was used to model topography, wherein protein molecules adsorbed onto spherical substrates (15-165 nm diameter) having chemically defined surfaces. Results obtained indicate that both proteins exhibit a less organised secondary structure upon adsorption onto hydrophobic compared to hydrophilic surfaces, with this effect being greatest for albumin. Adsorption rates and binding affinities were found to be higher on hydrophobic surfaces although the amounts adsorbed at saturation were lower. Supporting spectroscopic data suggests that proteins undergo surface induced deformation upon adsorption. Topography was shown to compound the effects of surface chemistry, with fibrinogen being more denatured on surfaces presenting high surface curvature whereas albumin was more denatured on larger substrates. These effects are most probably due to the differing size and shape of the proteins investigated. This study highlights the possibility of using tailor-made surfaces to influence binding rates and the conformation of bound proteins through protein-surface interactions. The data presented in this thesis demonstrates our ability to control protein adsorption characteristics through careful consideration of the underlying surface, which may facilitate the development and fabrication of materials / surface coatings with tailored bioactivity.

Abstract:
Is it possible to find an easy, generic method for protein refolding? The preparation of functionally active protein molecules from the unfolded state can be a difficult task. Although there are many well-established techniques for protein refolding, such as dilution, dialysis, chromatography and others, in many instances these methods can be time consuming and inefficient. A rapid, inexpensive and simple method for protein folding is a much sought after technique. Proteins in the unfolded state (either inclusion bodies or unfolded by chemical or physical means) are generally solubilised in solutions containing urea or guanidine hydrochloride. The removal of these molecules from the protein environment is commonly utilised as a method for triggering refolding. A new method for the refolding of biomolecular species has been developed via the formation of Protein Coated Micro-crystals (PCMC). The formation of PCMC is a recently developed method for the immobilisation protein upon the surface of a watersoluble excipient (salt, amino acid or sugar) via a co-precipitation reaction in a water miscible organic solvent. These proteins can then be used as immobilised biocatalysts in both the aqueous and organic phase. In the immobilisation of unfolded, solubilised protein, the solubilising agents (e.g. urea or guanidine hydrochloride) are removed from the protein environment as they are soluble in the organic phase. The removal of these molecules initiates protein folding during the coprecipitation process. In the course of this project, a number of proteins were studied in order to observe their behaviour in this immobilisation and simultaneous folding process. Lysozyme was utilised as it is an enzyme which is relatively simple to refold from the chemically unfolded state by conventional methods such as dilution. Upon immobilisation of lysozyme from the chemically unfolded state, up to 92% of the activity of the native protein was regained. The enzyme lipase, which is notoriously difficult to fold, was also used to determine the efficiency of this method under more challenging conditions. Lipase immobilised from the chemically unfolded state was seen to regain up to 36 % of the activity of the native protein.

Abstract:
Recent research into cell adhesion has focused on a tripeptide sequence arg-gly-asp (RGD) that is common to a number of cytoadhesive proteins such as von Willebrand factor, fibronectin and fibrinogen. We have previously reported that thrombospondin (TSP) inhibited platelet adhesion to RGD proteins. On further purification of TSP, the inhibitory activity separated away from the TSP. In this report, we demonstate that TSP adsorbs to surfaces and promotes platelet adhesion and thus may belong to this family of cytoadhesins. TSP was purified by heparin affinity chromatography, ammonium sulfate precipitation and sucrose gradient ultracentrifugation. Final preparations were free of TSP aggregates and gave one band on SDS-PAGE. Washed human platelets were radiolabelled, combined with red blood cells and perfused through protein-coated glass or polyethylene (PE) tubes for 7 mins. at a shear rate of 100 s™1. TSP supported platelet adhesion to the same level as fibrinogen (FG), but less than collagen. Platelets were spread but no thrombi were present on the TSP or FG-coated tubes while thrombi formed on collagen-coated tubes. Levels of adsorption were similar for purified solutions of radioiodinated FG or TSP on both glass and PE surfaces. The competitive interactions between these proteins during adsorption to surfaces indicated at equimolar amounts the TSP and FG both deposited on the surface but as FG:TSP ratio increased FG was preferentially adsorbed. These results indicate that TSP is a cytoadhesive protein for platelets when it is adsorbed to surfaces. Thus, the release of TSP from platelets may promote haemostasis or thrombogenesis.(supported by Ontario Heart Foundation, Canada)

Abstract:
Outstanding transport characteristics and high surface-to-volume ratios are several advantages that carbon nanotubes possess that make them attractive candidates for protein immobilization matrices in biosensor applications. A further advantage of using carbon nanotubes is that their structure (e.g., diameter, length, density) can potentially be controlled during synthesis. In the present study, the effects of carbon nanotube structure on enzyme immobilization onto carbon nanotube arrays are investigated. Bovine serum albumin (BSA) serves as both a blocking agent for prevention of nonspecific adsorption and as a support for anchoring bioreceptors. BSA, a globular protein having a 4 to 6 nm characteristic dimension, is stably adsorbed through mechanisms that involve hydrophobic interactions between surfaces presented by the carbon nanotubes and the spacing between the nanotubes with the protein. Protein adsorption is confirmed by fluorescence microscopy of surfaces that have been exposed to fluourescein isothiocyanate (FITC) labeled BSA. The adsorption of biotinylated BSA can be used, through a sandwich immobilization scheme, to provide an anchor for streptavidin, which in turn has at least one other adsorption site that is specific for other biotinylated proteins such as glucose oxidase that would form a biorecognition or catalytic element in a functional biosensor. Correlation between carbon nanotube structure and protein adsorption at the nano-bio interface could eventually lead to growth conditions that yield carbon nanotubes for biosensor applications with optimal protein adsorption characteristics.
