Abstract
It is widely recognized that representing a protein as a single static conformation is inadequate to describe the dynamics essential to the performance of its biological function. We contrast the amino acid displacements below and above the protein dynamical transition temperature, TD∼215K, of hen egg white lysozyme using X-ray crystallography ensembles that are analyzed by molecular dynamics simulations as a function of temperature. We show that measuring structural variations across an ensemble of X-ray derived models captures the activation of conformational states that are of functional importance just above TD, and they remain virtually identical to structural motions measured at 300K. Our results highlight the ability to observe functional structural variations across an ensemble of X-ray crystallographic data, and that residue fluctuations measured in MD simulations at room temperature are in quantitative agreement with the experimental observable.

We contrast the amino acid displacements below and above the protein dynamical transition temperature, T<sub>D</sub>∼215K, of hen egg white lysozyme using X-ray crystallography ensembles that are analyzed by molecular dynamics simulations as a function of temperature. We show that measuring structural variations across an ensemble of X-ray derived models captures the activation of conformational states that are of functional importance just above T<sub>D</sub>, and they remain virtually identical to structural motions measured at 300K.

HEWL is unique among almost all proteins in the PDB because (1) there is at least one high resolution structure that serves as the reference (here 3LZT), (2) it contains no prosthetic groups or metals, (3) it is a protein that has been solved in multiple space groups, and (4) there are ∼80 independent solved structures to generate an experimental ensemble.

These experimental ensembles, whose structure factor data was generated over the period between 1974 and 2010 (see supplementary material), are compared to MD simulations of HEWL in water, employing 3LZT as an initial configuration, and simulated at temperatures of 200K, 210K, 220K, 230K, and 300K.</p></sec><sec sec-type="methods" id="s2"><title>Methods</title><p>The HEWL protein (3LZT) was simulated in the AMBER9 <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pcbi.1000911-Case1">[30]</xref> molecular mechanics package using the AMBER99SB (protein) <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pcbi.1000911-Hornak1">[31]</xref> and TIP4P-Ew (water) <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pcbi.1000911-Horn1">[32]</xref> force fields.

This suggests that our X-ray ensemble is incomplete, and we predict that a different crystal form of HEWL that relieves those contacts would bear out the MD fluctuations in this small region. Nonetheless, above the transition temperature of ∼215K, a <italic>majority</italic> of residues (90 out of 129) are now dissimilar (LDC<0.7) to the 3LZT reference, with 40 of the 90 dissimilar residues yielding LDC values less than 0.5 in the same regions as the overall X-ray ensemble. This is due to activation of global motions of the α- and β-domains about the central hinge, signifying that fluctuations of an active protein are now populated. <xref ref-type="fig" rid="pcbi-1000911-g003">Figure 3</xref> also shows that the MD ensemble just above T<sub>D</sub> is measuring structural deviations that are mostly identical to the MD ensemble at 300K, thereby showing that the functional dynamical signatures are largely complete just past the protein dynamical transition temperature.</p><fig id="pcbi-1000911-g004" position="float"><object-id pub-id-type="doi">10.1371/journal.pcbi.1000911.g004</object-id><label>Figure 4</label><caption><title>Local density correlations for X-ray ensemble and MD ensemble >215K and at 300K.</title><p>The values of LDC<0.75 seen in the X-ray ensemble measures captures the functional motions of the protein at a residue level (see text and <xref ref-type="fig" rid="pcbi-1000911-g001">Figure 1</xref>).

In turn, the temperature-dependent activation of protein flexibility has been shown to be controlled by the dynamical processes of the aqueous solvent environment <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pcbi.1000911-Rupley1">[48]</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pcbi.1000911-Daniel1">[49]</xref>, i.e. the rigidity of solvent below T<sub>D</sub> and the abrupt increase in dynamical plasticity of the water network above T<sub>D</sub>. Similarly, the effect of crystal packing forces is to reduce the mobility of the protein in the regions of crystal contacts <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pcbi.1000911-Phillips1">[50]</xref>, although the residue-specific regions of reduced mobility will change under crystallization into different crystal space groups. We have shown that a large ensemble of X-ray measurements taken in a number of different crystal space groups and solvent conditions are able to capture nearly the full range of amino acid fluctuations that are of functional importance. Our MD ensembles of HEW lysozyme, which take into account the temperature dependence of the solvent dynamics, show that just above T<sub>D</sub>∼215K the relevant fluctuations become fully populated and are largely equivalent to that observed at room temperature.</p><p>Previous studies have taken advantage of MD to characterize dynamical signatures present in experimental X-ray data <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pcbi.1000911-Kondrashov1">[51]</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pcbi.1000911-Meinhold1">[52]</xref>, but just as relevant is whether the conformational states sampled during the simulation at room temperature remain consistent with the X-ray model. During the time course of a MD simulation the structures of simulated proteins necessarily drift from the initial PDB coordinates due to thermal motion and a fluid environment that is different from the crystalline state. At the same time, the fluctuations away from the X-ray start state during the computed MD trajectory may mask the possibility that the parameters of the model force field are inadequate, and potentially giving misleading information on functional conformational states. This work shows that residue fluctuations measured in MD at room temperature are completely consistent with the structural deviations measured in the experimental X-ray ensembles. This is consistent with one of the main result in protein structure prediction in that physical energy functions are quite robust in ranking X-ray crystallography structures as lower in energy than non-native decoys <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pcbi.1000911-Bradley1">[53]</xref>, <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pcbi.1000911-Lin1">[54]</xref> and can successfully interrogate active site dynamics <xref ref-type="bibr" rid="pcbi.1000911-Ruscio1">[55]</xref>. This is a mutually reinforcing result in the sense that the artificial crystalline environment is not problematic since the X-ray native basin holds under the fluid aqueous environment simulated in the MD trajectory.</p><sec id="s4a"><title>Conclusions</title><p>It is widely recognized that representing a protein as a single static conformation is inadequate to describe the dynamics essential to the performance of its biological function.
