Mobile Molecules: Reactivity Profiling Guides Faster Movement on a Cysteine Track.
Angewandte Chemie 2023 May 16
We previously reported a molecular hopper, which makes sub-nanometer steps by thiol-disulfide interchange along a track with cysteine footholds within a protein nanopore. Here we optimize the hopping rate (ca. 0.1 s-1 in the previous work) with a view towards rapid enzymeless biopolymer characterization during translocation within nanopores. We first took a single-molecule approach to obtain the reactivity profiles of individual footholds. The p K a values of cysteine thiols within a pore ranged from 9.17 to 9.85, and the pH-independent rate constants of the thiolates with a small-molecule disulfide varied by up to 20-fold. Through site-specific mutagenesis and a pH increase from 8.5 to 9.5, the overall hopping rate of a DNA cargo along a five-cysteine track was accelerated 4-fold, and the rate-limiting step 21-fold.
