TITLE: Molecular determinants of phospholipid synergy in blood clotting
JOURNAL: The Journal of Biological Chemistry
ABSTRACT: Many regulatory processes in biology involve reversible association of proteins with membranes. Clotting proteins bind to phosphatidylserine on cell surfaces, but a clear picture of this
interaction has yet to emerge. We present a novel explanation for membrane binding by GLA domains of clotting proteins, supported by biochemical studies, solid-state NMR analyses and molecular dynamics simulations. The model invokes a single "phospho-L-serine-specific" interaction and multiple "phosphate-specific" interactions. In the latter, the phosphates in phospholipids interact with tightly bound Ca2+ in GLA domains. We show that phospholipids with any headgroup other than choline strongly synergize with phosphatidylserine to enhance factor X activation. We propose that phosphatidylcholine and sphingomyelin (the major external phospholipids of healthy cells) are
anticoagulant primarily because their bulky choline headgroups sterically hinder access to their phosphates. Following cell damage or activation, exposed phosphatidylserine and
phosphatidylethanolamine collaborate to bind GLA domains, by providing phospho-L-serine-specific and phosphate-specific interactions, respectively.
