Affinity capillary electrophoresis (ACE) provides a new approach to studying protein-ligandinteractions. The basis for ACE is the change in the electrophoretic mobility of the protein whenit forms a complex with its ligand. This binding interaction can be quantified directly for chargedligands or indirectly for neutral ligands in competition with a previously characterized chargedligand. Determination of kinetic and equilibrium constants using ACE relies only on the changesin the migration time and shape (but not the area) of the peak due to protein. Simulation of theprotein mobility under conditions of ACE suggests that the experimentally obtained electro-pherogrnmscanbeexplainedintermsof fewvariables: onand off ntes(andthus,bindingconstant),concentration of the ligand(s), and relative mobilities of the protein and its complex(es).

IntroductionAffinif capillary electrophoresis (ACE)s-s can be used

to determine the binding constants, Kb, and lrineticconstants, froo and lo6, for the interaction of proteins withligands. ACE is athactive becaue the procedures are rapidand only small quantities of protein and ligands arerequired. The potential of ACE to provide simultaneousevduation of binding and kinetic constants of enz5me-inhibitor interactions is especidly appeding when takenin the contert of methodologies for generating andscree.ing drug candidat€s. The effectiveness of a moleculeaB an enzyme inhififpl, and thus possibly as a drug, maydepend not only on how tightly the inhibitor is bound bythe enz5rme but also on the rate of association of the enz5meand the inhibitor and the rate of dissociation of theenzlmrinhibitor compler.o

Here we describe several useful protocols for theseandyses using as a model system carbonic anhydrase (CA,EC 4.2.1.1) as enzlme and arylsulfonamides as inhibitors.In principle thege procedures ca! be used for analysis ofbinding in other systems of protein and ligands, providedthat protein adsorption on the surface of the capillary isnot significant and that a charged ligand is available orcan be slmthesized.

There are two tlpes of procedures. Determination ofthermodyanmic binding constants involving measuringshenges in mobility of the protein as a function of theconcentration of a ligand (or ligands) in the electrophoresisbuffer. We describe two variations in the procedure forstudying protein-ligand interactions: in one, the proteininteracts with a single charged ligand; in the second case,tbe protein interacts with a mixture of, two ligands, onecharged and one electricallyneutral. The firstprocedureyields the binding constant of the charged ligand directly.The second allows the measurement of the bindingconstant of the neutral ligand, relative to the charged one,and thus provides a protocol for measuring bindingconstsnts of uncharged ligands. Both of these tlpes ofprocedrrre involve only measurements of the positions ofpeaks (that is, migration times t-). The intensity and theshape of the peak are not required.

This paper also describes a procedure for analyzing thedisplacement and shape of the protein peak, using a simplecomputer-based simulation, to obtain information con-cerning the lrinetics of the interaction between the protein

and the ligand(s). In this procedure, matching of erper-imental and calculated peak shapes is an integral part ofthe procedure.

Complex Formation and Electrophoretic Mobility.The com-on basis of each procedure is the arralysis of thechanges in the electrophoretic mobility of a protein onconplexation with a ligand (L) present in the electro-phoresis buffer (Figure 1). The electrophoretic nobilityp (cmz V-l s-1) of a protein induced by a voltage gradientalong the capillary is related to the net charge of the proteinand to the inverse of its mass (eq 1).

functional forms have been empiricdly determined toapprorimate these relationships:? one is p - zl(mzts!.Knowledge of the exact form is not necessary for ACE, solongas itdoes not change as a function of ligand orproteinconcentration. When a protein forms a complex with acharged ligand of relatively small mass, the change in theelectrophoretic mobility of the protein-ligand complexresulting from the change in charge is large, while thecontribution to the change in electrophoretic nobility dueto the change in mass is negligible (eq 1). The protein-ligand compler nay then have a measurable difference inelectrophoretic mobility relative to the free protein.sScatchard analysis of the change in the electrophoreticmobility of the protein as a function of the concentrationof the ligand in the electrophoresis buffer allows thedetermination of the binding constant (Kd for theinteraction.3

Interaction of a protein and a ligand that induces achange in the migration time of the protein may alsobroaden the peak due to the protein in the region ofconcentrations coresponding to migration times inter-mediate between that of free protein and that of itssaturated compler with ligand (Figure 1). This broade'ingis most pronounced if the dissociation time (1/&"m) is ofthe same magnitude as the migration time of the protein.

of tne protein in the capillary to allow for equilibration totake place. This will also require adjusting the amountof protein so that it is lower than the amount of ligand

binding ligands can be undertaken using shorter run times;

the erpected electropherogra-s will resemble Figure 2d.For weak protein-ligand interactions, high backgroundabsorbance and changes in buffer properties due to theIigand should be anticipated at the high concentration ofliiand required to influence tbe mobility of the protein.s

Erperimental Section

Apparatue. The ISCO 3140 capillary electrophoresis appa't"t* ilSCO, [nc., Lincoln, NE) was used in this studywith theanode on the injection side and the cathode on the detectionside. The capillary tubing (Pollmicro Technologies, In9., Phoe'nix, AZ) was of uncoated fused silica with an internal dinrneterof50 pm and a total length of 100 cm (75 cm from the injectionside to the detector) unless stated otherwise. The elution wa8monitored on-column at 200''m. The tcmperature of the columnwas naintained at 30 + 1 oC. The electropherogtan raw datawere collected using ICE software (ISCO, Inc-, Lincoln, NE) andlater erported as ASCII files for proceesingad analyais ugingKaleidagraph (Spergy Software, Rcading' PA).

The reference frnrne was constructed by dividing the fr"-e intotwo arrays of compartments parallel to the direction of travel.The widih of the compartments corregponds to the distance thatthe protein-ligand compler would have traveled in the referenceframe using elperimentally determined velocities for the freeand the complered CA. The concentration in each pahedcompartment was iteratively adjust€d every 1-10 ms using eqsL2-I4. The concentration of the ligand was altsuned constsntand equal to the concentration in the electrophoresis buffer. Theconcentration of the complexed CA in the rth compartmentwastransferred to the (r + l)th compartment every 100 me. Thesimulation generatcd data were also anallzed and plottcd usingKaleidagraph.

The binding constantsI( *d Ki *td as input parameters in the simulationwere 1.5 t lff M-l and 1.1. x lff M-1, respectively.Scatchard analysis of the simulation-generated electro-pherograms (Figue 3b) using eq 10 did not return theorigind value of the binding constant used in the simu-lation but instead gave a vdue of 1.3 x 1ff M-l (r > 0.99);this value was equal to the apparent Ki' measurederperimentally (Figure 3a). The original value of thebinding constant (Iq) used in the simulation was ob-tained using eq 11.

Conclusion

ACE is a useful method to study protein-ligand inter-actions. The attractive features of ACE include its abilityto provide assessment of protein-ligand interactions uslngvery snall nmounts of samples and ligands in relativelyshort time. ACE relies only on the migration time andshape of the peak and not on its area. The concentrationof the protein in the gnmpl€ does not appear in theequations used for Scatchard analysis (eqs 6 and 10). Theprotein need not be pure; simultaneous determination ofindividud binding constants using s snmpl€ of a mixtureof isozlmes or different proteins is possible.s [n this study,ACE dlowed gimultaneous measrrrement of the bindingconetsnt of 1 to CA, through changes in migration timeand of the off rate for the binding interaction from thepeak width.33

A najor consideration in using ACE is6qinn f,[etendency of proteins to adsorb on the wall of uncoatedcapillaries; this tendency becomes more pronounced whenthe pH of the electrophoresis buffer is close to or lowerthan the pf of the protein. A number of approaches areavailable to control this int€raction between protein andcapillary wall including the use of additives to the bufferand chemical modification of the silanol groups of thecapillary wall.s ACE requires that at least one of theligands should have a sufficient charge to cause a mea-surable change in the migration time of the protein-ligandcompler.

The simulation suggests that the electropherogra-sreeulting from protein-ligand interaction can be explainedin terms of relatively few variables: on and o// rates (andthus, binding congtant), concentration of the ligand(s),and the relative mobilitiee of the protein and the protein-Itgand compler(es).4 The gimulation also suggests thatquantitative determination of high binding conetants(aseociated with slow dissociation of the ligand from the
