B-crystallin. Desmin-related
myopathy is one of several diseases characterized by the coaggregation
of intermediate filaments with
B-crystallin, and it identifies
intermediate filaments as important physiological substrates for
B-crystallin. Using recombinant human
B-crystallin, the effects
of the disease-causing mutation R120G upon the structure and the
chaperone activities of
B-crystallin are reported. The secondary,
tertiary, and quaternary structural features of
B-crystallin are all
altered by the mutation as deduced by near- and far-UV circular
dichroism spectroscopy, size exclusion chromatography, and chymotryptic
digestion assays. The R120G
B-crystallin is also less stable than
wild type
B-crystallin to heat-induced denaturation. These
structural changes coincide with a significant reduction in the
in vitro chaperone activity of the mutant
B-crystallin
protein, as assessed by temperature-induced protein aggregation assays.
The mutation also significantly altered the interaction of
B-crystallin with intermediate filaments. It abolished the ability
of
B-crystallin to prevent those filament-filament interactions
required to induce gel formation while increasing
B-crystallin
binding to assembled intermediate filaments. These activities are
closely correlated to the observed disease pathologies characterized by
filament aggregation accompanied by
B-crystallin binding. These
studies provide important insight into the mechanism of
B-crystallin-induced aggregation of intermediate filaments that
causes disease.
