ABSTRACT: Proteins and peptides interactions are characterized in the liquid state by multidimensional NMR spectroscopy experiments, which can take hours to record. We show that, starting from hyperpolarized HDO, two-dimensional (2D) proton correlation maps of a peptide, either free in solution or interacting with liposomes, can be acquired in less than 60 s. In standard 2D NMR spectroscopy without hyperpolarization, the acquisition time required for similar spectral correlations is of the order of hours. This hyperpolarized experiment allows to identify amino-acids featuring solvent-interacting hydrogens and provides fast spectroscopic analysis of peptide conformers. These experiments are a useful and straightforward tool for biochemistry and structural biology, as they do not recur to nitrogen-15 or carbon-13 isotope enrichment.

In biomolecular magnetic resonance spectroscopy, long experimental times are regarded as sine qua non for structural accuracy. Multi-dimensional NMR experiments, which yield the most detailed descriptions of molecules in solution, typically last hours, sometimes even days, and curtailing these durations is necessary to obtain relevant information on chemical reactions, biomolecular interactions or biochemical processes. The environment of biomolecules in solution is crucial for their function, in particular at the surface of membranes1, where their conformations are often stabilized through solvent interactions. Fundamental studies of the interactions between water and biomolecules have wide-reaching practical implications in structural biology2 and clinical imaging, as water-proton magnetization transfer to nuclear spins is at the basis of a widely-used method, known as chemical-exchange saturation transfer (CEST)3,4,5. Molecular agents have been developed to use chemical exchange as a contrast mechanism in MRI6,7. Hyperpolarised water protons are a route towards sensitive NMR spectroscopy8,9. Recently, several approaches have been devised. For example, para-hydrogen induced polarization (PHIP) generated via surface-mediated catalysis has been shown to effectively replenish hyperpolarized HDO10. Water-soluble PHIP catalysts have also become available lately11. Furthermore, the perspective of water hyperpolarisation by means of Signal amplification by reversible exchange (SABRE) has recently been proposed12. Here we employ dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization (D-DNP) to obtain hyperpolarized HDO. D-DNP currently yields the strongest

signal enhancements and has the advantage that it is broadly applicable. Enhanced 1H-15N correlations were obtained in this manner in 15N-enriched proteins13,14,15,16,17,18. The short life-time of D-DNP-derived hyperpolarization requires fast 2D acquisition methods for biological NMR studies. Successful approaches speed-up signal acquisition by spatial encoding of 2D spectra19 or reduce magnetization-recovery delays between successive scans20,21. Cross-peaks can be enhanced using the interplay between indirect-dimension evolution and relaxation delays22. However, water-exchanging hydrogens often remain elusive due to the timescales of their exchange. In such instances, hyperpolarization can be used to bring HN signals, which are the cornerstone of spectral correlations, into a detectable range. Transfer occurs from water via exchange and nuclear Overhauser effects, both exchange-relayed and direct, as observed by Hilty and collaborators23. NMR spectroscopy based on protons can be used to study peptide and protein folding and conformational stability in membranes – a field that is much less advanced than protein folding/unfolding in solution, where a wealth of thermodynamic data is available24. For protein-membrane interactions, a few principles have emerged25, but thermodynamic data remain sparse. The energetics of the partitioning of peptides between membranes and solutions yield valuable information in biochemical studies, some of relevancy for cancer treatment26,27. Proton-proton correlation spectroscopy (COSY)28,29 is the most straightforward route to acquiring atomic-resolution structural information for peptides of less than 10 kDa, whenever isotope labelling is not necessary or feasible. Here we describe an experiment that allows high-resolution characterization of peptide conformations in less than 1 minute. The very short duration of the described experiments is obtained using signal enhancement by Dissolution Dynamic Nuclear Polarization (D-DNP). For the proof of concept, we chose the dipeptide alanine-glycine (henceforth, AlaGly) dissolved in hyperpolarized HDO as a model system to study peptide-liposome interactions by hyperpolarized COSY(Fig. 1).

Figure 1. Proton spectrum of AlaGly obtained without hyperpolarization (using thermal-equilibrium magnetization. The inset shows a space-fill representation of AlaGly, with water-exchangeable protons in blue. To obtain hyperpolarized COSY data, we followed a previouslyreported experimental strategy16 and dissolved the AlaGly peptide in a hyperpolarized mixture of 4% H2O in D2O, with enhancements of the HDO protons on the order of ɛHDO =405, which yielded NMR spectra with DNP-enhanced peptide signal intensities, I, stemming from HDO15,17,18 by a factor ɛ = IHyperpolarized/Iconventional ̴ 405. In the hyperpolarized COSY spectrum (Figure 2) we note, in addition to the cross-peaks Gly-HN/Gly-Hα and Ala-HN/Ala-Hα originating from magnetization relayed via intra-residue J-couplings to Hα protons, the appearance of several cross peaks that benefit from enhanced signal intensities. Due to the high sensitivity of the experiment, the Ala-HN/Ala-Hβ correlation stemming from transfer via 4J-couplings is observed and inter-residue correlations of a similar long-range nature30,31 between Gly-HN and Ala-Hα protons can be inferred, despite overlap at these sites. The conventional COSY in thermal equilibrium (i.e. without hyperpolarization) only revealed magnetization transfer from Ala-HN to Ala-Hα and from Gly-HN to Gly-Hα1 and Gly-Hα2. The signal enhancements obtained for different positions of the 2D map, as well as newly-detected signals, are listed in Table 1, column II.

The longitudinal relaxation of magnetization during sample transfer between the polarizer and the detection system is crucial for the obtained enhancement. The key advantage of hyperpolarized HDO is that its relaxation time constant is relatively long, T1(HDO) ̴ 8 s, allowing to observe magnetization up to tens of seconds after hyperpolarization. By comparison, direct polarization of 1H nuclei in AlaGly followed by dissolution, transfer and injection is expected to result in lower signal enhancements, even for the slowestrelaxing methyl protons in Ala, with typical T1 (1H) ̴ 2 s in high magnetic fields, and even shorter during the transfer step in low fields. Therefore, one can obtain multidimensional hyperpolarized spectra within the time window imposed by HDO relaxation rather than being limited by the much faster relaxation of the target peptide. The obtained enhancements (Table 1) allowed us to elevate the signal amplitudes of formerly-invisible correlations above the detection threshold. Proton correlations have been adequately detected in hyperpolarized 2D map. Three points need to be considered in comparison to a conventional COSY experiment: (i) a small spectral window was used in the indirect dimension in order to preserve resolution. Even with reduced spectral windows, resolution in the indirect dimension of the hyperpolarized experiment remains an issue, due to the limited acquisition time, t1max. To improve resolution under these conditions,‘SOFT-COSY’ experiments32 may be useful. (ii) the method is challenged by very intense water resonances, which impose the challenge to avoid radiation damping effects that would distort the acquired spectra ; the HDO hyperpolarization reservoir also has to be maintained. Hence, the direct dimension of the spectra in Fig. 2 is reduced and selective excitation of the peptide resonances was chosen as proposed in earlier work14. (iii) finally, the experiment does not require a conventional recovery delay (typically recovery=4 s) as the proton polarization is replenished by chemical and magnetic exchange with the solvent. We found (Supporting Information) that an overall inter-scan time of is=0.4 s ensures polarisation transfer while optimizing experimental time. Once the protocol of hyperpolarized COSY established, we studied the interaction of AlaGly with liposomes (Figure 3). The liposome consisted of large unilamellar vesicles (LUVs) prepared as detailed in the Supporting Information.

thereof (integrals over the indirect dimension) for AlaGly without liposomes (shown in red) and in presence of liposomes, shown in blue (the scale is multiplied by a factor 4 in the projection). All COSY spectra were processed in magnitude mode. C) Representation of free AlaGly and a conformation interacting with the liposome. D): Snapshot from an MD trajectory of the peptide forming a hydrogen bound (yellow line) between the Ala residue and DOPC (dioleoyl-phosphocholine) on the bilayer surface. We observed a pronounced difference between spectra recorded in the presence and absence of liposomes. Compared to free AlaGly, an overall reduction of signal intensities of the amide region is immediately detected in the liposome-containing sample. The signal losses in spectra recorded in the presence of liposomes, compared to free AlaGly, can be traced back to two factors: i) hindered exchange between HDO and HN sites and ii) accelerated relaxation of peptide protons in presence of LUVs via slowed dynamics upon binding. While signal losses via factor ii) trigger a mostly uniform scaling of spectral intensities in a small peptide, losses due to effect i) lead to more pronounced decrease in signal amplitudes for sites that are shielded from the solvent. We observed a site-specific effect, i.e., the reduction of the intensity of Ala-NH3-based cross-signals compared to those based on Gly-HN (Table 1, column III). The signal enhancement of the Ala-HN/Ala-Hα correlation is 14-fold reduced, while the Gly-HN/Gly-Hα correlation is reduced only by a factor 6. Hence, signal changes are compatible with effect i), and the impact of liposome binding on the AlaGly signal enhancement indicates stronger interactions of the Ala residue with the liposome surface. Table 1. Signal intensity (S) enhancements ɛ = S(Hyperpolarized COSY)/S(conventional COSY), for selected cross-peaks. “Only in hyperpolarized COSY” indicates that the conventional COSY did not show these correlations.

and 2D NOESY experiments33 showed that the transfer of polarization is based on a combination of both NOE’s from the solvent and chemical exchange (Supporting Information). Recent advances in observation techniques showed that even small peptides have defined structural propensities34,35,36. These preferences are more marked in the presence of interaction partners. Amphiphilic peptides of a few amino acids bind to lipid vesicles through exothermal reactions with binding energies35, ΔG, that depend on the peptide sequence and vary between -10 and -80 kJ/mol. Energy gaps of this order of magnitude are typical for staunchlyassociated partners. The increase in spectral dispersion observed upon liposome addition (Figure 3B) indicates a spread in peptide conformations. This spread occurs over ca 0.5 ppm, i.e., 400 Hz under our experimental conditions. The major conformations that appear upon liposome introduction feature signals with similar intensities. This implies that the energy gaps that separate these conformations at the temperature of the study, T = 300 K, are of the order of ΔG ̴ -RT = -2.5 kJ/mol (details in the Supporting Information), where R = 8.3 J/(K•mol) is the universal gas constant. To validate the interaction model obtained from the experiments we employed molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The peptide interacting with the lipid bilayer was sampled for 200 ns using a CHARMM-based simulation platform (details in Supporting Information). The peptide, initially assumed in a random conformation, was seen to spend a significant time in close contact with the bilayer surface. Most of the hydrogen bounds (~ 92 %,) occurred when the peptide is oriented with the Ala residue toward the bilayer surface (Fig. 4), forming hydrogen bonds between the Ala N-terminus and phosphatidylcholine anions. This corroborates our deduction that the positively-charged peptide N-terminus forms the primary interaction site with the membrane surface. The binding energy calculated from MD spans the range -0.98 to -12.89 kJ/mol, reasonably fitting with the experimentally-inferred value mentioned above. Structural information can be obtained within 1 minute by 2D proton correlation spectroscopy using hyperpolarized HDO protons. The residue-dependent enhancement factors yield information about binding sites and can help assign magnetic resonance signals to atoms within molecular and inter-molecular frameworks. The detection of biomolecular interactions without any recourse to isotopic enrichment makes possible fast and straightforward applications, such as drug screening for binding to defined biomolecular sites via hyperpolarized correlation spectroscopy.

Supporting Information material including experimental details and calculations performed on the system is available. ABSTRACT: Proteins and peptides interactions are characterized in the liquid state by multidimensional NMR spectroscopy experiments, which can take hours to record. We show that, starting from hyperpolarized HDO, two-dimensional (2D) proton correlation maps of a peptide, either free in solution or interacting with liposomes, can be acquired in less than 60 s. In standard 2D NMR spectroscopy without hyperpolarization, the acquisition time required for similar spectral correlations is of the order of hours. This hyperpolarized experiment allows to identify amino-acids featuring solvent-interacting hydrogens and provides fast spectroscopic analysis of peptide conformers. These experiments are a useful and straightforward tool for biochemistry and structural biology, as they do not recur to nitrogen-15 or carbon-13 isotope enrichment.

In biomolecular magnetic resonance spectroscopy, long experimental times are regarded as sine qua non for structural accuracy. Multi-dimensional NMR experiments, which yield the most detailed descriptions of molecules in solution, typically last hours, sometimes even days, and curtailing these durations is necessary to obtain relevant information on chemical reactions, biomolecular interactions or biochemical processes. The environment of biomolecules in solution is crucial for their function, in particular at the surface of membranes1, where their conformations are often stabilized through solvent interactions. Fundamental studies of the interactions between water and biomolecules have wide-reaching practical implications in structural biology2 and clinical imaging, as water-proton magnetization transfer to nuclear spins is at the basis of a widely-used method, known as chemical-exchange saturation transfer (CEST)3,4,5. Molecular agents have been developed to use chemical exchange as a contrast mechanism in MRI6,7. Hyperpolarised water protons are a route towards sensitive NMR spectroscopy8,9. Recently, several approaches have been devised. For example, para-hydrogen induced polarization (PHIP) generated via surface-mediated catalysis has been shown to effectively replenish hyperpolarized HDO10. Water-soluble PHIP catalysts have also become available lately11. Furthermore, the perspective of water hyperpolarisation by means of Signal amplification by reversible exchange (SABRE) has recently been proposed12. Here we employ dissolution dynamic nuclear polarization (D-DNP) to obtain hyperpolarized HDO. D-DNP currently yields the strongest signal enhancements and has the advantage that it is broadly applicable. Enhanced 1H-15N correlations were obtained in this manner

in 15N-enriched proteins13,14,15,16,17,18. The short life-time of DDNP-derived hyperpolarization requires fast 2D acquisition methods for biological NMR studies. Successful approaches speed-up signal acquisition by spatial encoding of 2D spectra19 or reduce magnetization-recovery delays between successive scans20,21. Cross-peaks can be enhanced using the interplay between indirectdimension evolution and relaxation delays22. However, water-exchanging hydrogens often remain elusive due to the timescales of their exchange. In such instances, hyperpolarization can be used to bring HN signals, which are the cornerstone of spectral correlations, into a detectable range. Transfer occurs from water via exchange and nuclear Overhauser effects, both exchange-relayed and direct, as observed by Hilty and collaborators23. NMR spectroscopy based on protons can be used to study peptide and protein folding and conformational stability in membranes – a field that is much less advanced than protein folding/unfolding in solution, where a wealth of thermodynamic data is available24. For protein-membrane interactions, a few principles have emerged25, but thermodynamic data remain sparse. The energetics of the partitioning of peptides between membranes and solutions yield valuable information in biochemical studies, some of relevancy for cancer treatment26,27. Proton-proton correlation spectroscopy (COSY)28,29 is the most straightforward route to acquiring atomic-resolution structural information for peptides of less than 10 kDa, whenever isotope labelling is not necessary or feasible. Here we describe an experiment that allows high-resolution characterization of peptide conformations in less than 1 minute. The very short duration of the described experiments is obtained using signal enhancement by Dissolution Dynamic Nuclear Polarization (D-DNP). For the proof of concept, we chose the dipeptide alanine-glycine (henceforth, AlaGly) dissolved in hyperpolarized HDO as a model system to study peptide-liposome interactions by hyperpolarized COSY(Figure 1).

B) Overlay of projections of proton correlation spectra from Hyperpolarized COSY (red) and conventional COSY (blue, magnified for signal visibility) spectra.

Figure 1. Proton spectrum of AlaGly obtained without hyperpolarization (using thermal-equilibrium magnetization. The inset shows a space-fill representation of AlaGly, with water-exchangeable protons in blue. To obtain hyperpolarized COSY data, we followed a previouslyreported experimental strategy16 and dissolved the AlaGly peptide in a hyperpolarized mixture of 4% H2O in D2O, obtaining enhancements of the HDO protons, ɛHDO, in the range 100-200. The first point in the indirect-dimension of the COSY spectrum reveals that peptide signal intensities, I, are enhanced15,17,18 by a factor ɛpeptide=IHyperpolarized/Iconventional=405. In the hyperpolarized COSY spectrum (Figure 2) we note, in addition to the cross-peaks GlyHN/Gly-Hα and Ala-HN/Ala-Hα originating from magnetization relayed via intra-residue J-couplings to Hα protons, the appearance of several cross peaks that benefit from enhanced signal intensities. Due to the high sensitivity of the experiment, the Ala-HN/Ala-Hβ correlation stemming from transfer via 4J-couplings is observed and inter-residue correlations of a similar long-range nature30,31 between Gly-HN and Ala-Hα protons can be inferred, despite overlap at these sites. The conventional COSY in thermal equilibrium (i.e. without hyperpolarization) only revealed magnetization transfer from Ala-HN to Ala-Hα and from Gly-HN to Gly-Hα1 and Gly-Hα2. The signal enhancements obtained for different positions of the 2D map, as well as newly-detected signals, are listed in Table 1, column II.

The longitudinal relaxation of magnetization during sample transfer between the polarizer and the detection system is crucial for the obtained enhancement. The key advantage of hyperpolarized HDO is that its relaxation time constant is relatively long, T1(HDO) ̴ 8 s, allowing to observe magnetization up to tens of seconds after hyperpolarization. By comparison, direct polarization of 1H nuclei in AlaGly followed by dissolution, transfer and injection is expected to result in lower signal enhancements, even for the slowestrelaxing methyl protons in Ala, with typical T1 (1H) ̴ 2 s in high magnetic fields, and even shorter during the transfer step in low fields. Therefore, one can obtain multidimensional hyperpolarized spectra within the time window imposed by HDO relaxation rather than being limited by the much faster relaxation of the target peptide. The obtained enhancements (Table 1) allowed us to elevate the signal amplitudes of formerly-invisible correlations above the detection threshold. Proton correlations have been adequately detected in hyperpolarized 2D map. Three points need to be considered in comparison to a conventional COSY experiment: (i) a small spectral window was used in the indirect dimension in order to preserve resolution. Even with reduced spectral windows, resolution in the indirect dimension of the hyperpolarized experiment remains an issue, due to the limited acquisition time, t1max. To improve resolution under these conditions, ‘SOFT-COSY’ experiments32 may be useful. (ii) the method is challenged by very intense water resonances, which impose to avoid radiation damping effects that would distort the acquired spectra; the HDO hyperpolarization reservoir also has to be maintained. Hence, selective excitation of the peptide resonances was chosen as proposed in earlier work14 (see Supporting Information) and only frequencies beyond 7.5 ppm are acquired in the direct dimension of the spectra in Figure 2. (iii) finally, the experiment does not require a conventional recovery delay (typically recovery=4 s) as the proton polarization is replenished by chemical and magnetic exchange with the solvent. We found (Supporting Information) that an overall inter-scan time of is=0.4 s ensures polarisation transfer while optimizing experimental time. Once the protocol of hyperpolarized COSY established, we studied the interaction of AlaGly with liposomes (Figure 3). The liposome consisted of large unilamellar vesicles (LUVs) prepared as detailed in the Supporting Information.

All COSY spectra were processed in magnitude mode. C) Representation of free AlaGly and a conformation interacting with the liposome. D) Snapshot from an MD trajectory of the peptide forming a hydrogen bound (yellow line) between the Ala residue and DOPC (dioleoyl-phosphocholine) on the bilayer surface. We observed a pronounced difference between spectra recorded in the presence and absence of liposomes. Compared to free AlaGly, an overall reduction of signal intensities of the amide region is immediately detected in the liposome-containing sample. The signal losses in spectra recorded in the presence of liposomes, compared to free AlaGly, can be traced back to two factors: i) hindered exchange between HDO and HN sites and ii) accelerated relaxation of peptide protons in presence of LUVs via slowed dynamics upon binding. While signal losses via factor ii) trigger a mostly uniform scaling of spectral intensities in a small peptide, losses due to effect i) lead to more pronounced decrease in signal amplitudes for sites that are shielded from the solvent. We observed a site-specific effect, i.e., the reduction of the intensity of Ala-NH3-based cross-signals compared to those based on Gly-HN (Table 1, column III). The signal enhancement of the Ala-HN/Ala-Hα correlation is 14-fold reduced, while the Gly-HN/Gly-Hα correlation is reduced only by a factor 6. Hence, signal changes are compatible with effect i), and the impact of liposome binding on the AlaGly signal enhancement indicates stronger interactions of the Ala residue with the liposome surface.

Recent advances in observation techniques showed that even small peptides have defined structural propensities34,35,36. These preferences are more marked in the presence of interaction partners. Amphiphilic peptides of a few amino acids bind to lipid vesicles through exothermal reactions with binding energies35, ΔG, that depend on the peptide sequence and vary between -10 and -80 kJ/mol. Energy gaps of this order of magnitude are typical for staunchlyassociated partners. The increase in spectral dispersion observed upon liposome addition (Figure 3B) indicates a spread in peptide conformations. This spread occurs over ca 0.5 ppm, i.e., 400 Hz under our experimental conditions. The major conformations that appear upon liposome introduction feature signals with similar intensities. This implies that the energy gaps that separate these conformations at the temperature of the study, T = 300 K, are of the order of ΔG ̴ -RT = -2.5 kJ/mol (details in the Supporting Information), where R = 8.3 J/(K•mol) is the universal gas constant. To validate the interaction model obtained from the experiments we employed molecular dynamics (MD) simulations. The peptide interacting with the lipid bilayer was sampled for 200 ns using a CHARMM-based simulation platform (details in Supporting Information). The peptide, initially assumed in a random conformation, was seen to spend a significant time in close contact with the bilayer surface. Most of the hydrogen bounds (~ 92 %) occurred when the peptide is oriented with the Ala residue toward the bilayer surface (Figure 4), forming hydrogen bonds between the Ala Nterminus and phosphatidylcholine anions. This corroborates our deduction that the positively-charged peptide N-terminus forms the primary interaction site with the membrane surface. The binding energy calculated from MD spans -0.98 to -12.89 kJ/mol, reasonably fitting with the experimentally-inferred value above. Structural information can be obtained within 1 minute by 2D proton correlation spectroscopy using hyperpolarized HDO protons. The residue-dependent enhancement factors yield information about binding sites and can help assign magnetic resonance signals to atoms within molecular and inter-molecular frameworks. The detection of biomolecular interactions without any recourse to isotopic enrichment makes possible fast and straightforward applications, such as drug screening for binding to defined biomolecular sites via hyperpolarized correlation spectroscopy.
