In this study, the binding behaviors of MUTYH adenine DNA glycosylase (MutY) to dsDNA containing different base mismatches were investigated. The type and distribution of base mismatch in the dsDNA greatly influenced the DNA-protein interaction. The [4Fe4S] cluster of MutY protein specifically identified a G-A mismatch in the dsDNA chain and showed strong binding to the protein through multiple H-bonds at the HhH motif.
MUTYH adenine DNA glycosylase and its homologous protein (collectively MutY) are typical DNA glycosylases with a [4Fe4S] cluster and a helix-hairpin-helix (HhH) motif in its structure. In the present work, the binding behaviors of the MutY protein to dsDNA containing different base mismatches were investigated. The type and distribution of base mismatch in the dsDNA chain were found to influence the DNA- protein binding interaction greatly. The [4Fe4S] cluster of the MutY protein is able to identify a G-A mismatch in the dsDNA chain specifically by monitoring the anomalies of charge transport in the dsDNA chain, allowing the entrance of the identified dsDNA chain into the internal cavity of the MutY protein and the strong DNA-protein binding at the HhH motif of the protein through multiple H-bonds. The dsDNA chain with a centrally located G-A mismatch is thus functionalized on mesoporous silica (MSN) via amination reaction, and the obtained dsDNA(G-A)@MSN is used as a powerful sorbent for the selective capturing of the MutY protein from complex samples. By using 0.5% NH3 center dot H2O (m/v) as a stripping reagent, efficient isolation of the MutY protein from different cell lines and bacteria is achieved and the recovered MutY protein is demonstrated to maintain favorable DNA adenine glycosylase activity.
