Camelid nanobodies raised against an integral membrane enzyme, nitric oxide reductaseNitric oxide reductaseCamelid antibodiesVHH domainSPRPhage displayProtein Sci. 2009 Mar;18(3):619-28. doi: 10.1002/pro.69.Nitric Oxide Reductase (NOR) is an integral membrane protein performing the reduction of NO to N2O. NOR is composed of two subunits: the large one (NorB) is a bundle of 12 transmembrane helices (TMH). It contains a b type heme and a binuclear iron site, which is believed to be the catalytic site, comprising a heme b and a non-hemic iron. The small subunit(NorC) harbors a cytochrome c and is attached to the membrane through a unique TMH. With the aim to perform structural and functional studies of NOR, we have immunized dromedaries with NOR and produced several antibody fragments of the heavy chain (VHHs, also known as nanobodiesTM). These fragments have been used to develop a faster NOR purification procedure, to proceed to crystallization assays and to analyze the electron transfer of electron donors. BIAcore experiments have revealed that up to three VHHs can bind concomitantly to NOR with affinities in the nanomolar range. This is the first example of the use of VHHs with an integral membrane protein. Our results indicate that VHHs are able to recognize with high affinity distinct epitopes on this class of proteins, and can be used as versatile and valuable tool for purification, functional study and crystallization of integral membrane proteins.Wiley-BlackwellRUNConrath, KatjaPereira, Alice S.Martins, Carlos E.Timóteo, Cristina G.Tavares, PedroMoura, IsabelMoura, José J.
