Materials and Methods

Cloning and expressionThe gene for ZMPSTE24 was purchased from the Mammalian Gene Collection

IMAGE: 5269064. ZMPSTE24WT was expressed using a construct consisting of the fulllength wild type ZMPSTE24 gene with a C-terminal purification tag with a tobacco etchvirus (TEV) protease cleavage site, a 10xHis purification sequence and a FLAG tag in theexpression vector pFB-CT10HF-LIC (available from the SGC). A second construct,ZMPSTE24E305A,E306A,E307A, with surface entropy mutations, where residues E305EE weremutated to AAA, was produced using the same purification tag and vector. In addition,protein with reduced activity was produced by mutating the catalytic Glu336 to alanine.Baculoviruses were produced by transformation of DH10Bac cells. Spodopterafrugiperda (Sf9) insect cells in Sf-900 II SFM medium (Life Technologies) were infectedwith recombinant baculovirus and incubated for 72h at 27°C in shaker flasks.

Selection of suitable detergents for ZMPSTE24 purificationWe assessed the size and composition of the protein-detergent complex formed by

ZMPSTE24 in a range of detergents. We combined size exclusion chromatography (SEC)with a Shodex KW-803 column on a Dionex micro-HPLC system, with analysis with aTetra detector (Malvern Instruments Ltd), which monitors the refractive index, low (7˚)and right angle light scattering, viscosity and UV absorbance. Purifications wereperformed as described below with 1% detergent (w/v) +/- 0.1% cholesterylhemisuccinate (CHS) during protein solubilization and a concentration of 3x thedetergent critical micelle concentration (CMC, Affymetrix) +/- CHS (10:1detergent:CHS) in all other purification buffers. The mass of the PDC and its protein todetergent ratio were calculated as described in Slotboom et al., 2008 (33). Detergent (+/-CHS) standards in the SEC buffer (20mM HEPES, pH 7.5, 200mM NaCl with either0.03% DDM or 0.18% OGNG and 0.018% CHS) were analysed in triplicate on the samecolumn at concentrations of 5, 3.75, 2.85, 2.11, 1.58%. Detergent/lipid standard curveswere used to obtain the differential refractive index (dn/dc), and the differential UVabsorbance (dA/dc) of the detergent micelles. OGNG/CHS was found to give a smallerPDC than DDM and was subsequently used for purification and crystallization.

Production of ZMPSTE24 for crystallization and functional studiesCell pellets from 1 litre of insect cell culture were resuspended in 50ml of lysis

buffer (50mM HEPES, pH 7.5, 200mM NaCl, Roche protease inhibitor cocktail) andlysed by two passes through an EmulsiFlex-C5 homogenizer (Aventis). Protein wasextracted from cell membranes by incubation of the crude lysate with either 1% DDM or1% OGNG and 0.1% CHS for 1h at 4oC. Cell debris and unlysed cells were removed bycentrifugation at 40,000g for 1h. Detergent-solubilized protein was purified byimmobilized metal affinity chromatography by batch binding to Co2+ charged TALONresin (Clontech) at 4ºC for 1h. The resin was washed with 30 column volumes of washbuffer (50mM HEPES, pH 7.5, 200mM NaCl, 20mM imidazole with either 0.03% DDMor 0.18% OGNG and 0.018% CHS) and eluted with wash buffer supplemented with250mM imidazole. The protein was concentrated in a 100kDa cut-off Corningconcentrator and further purified by size exclusion chromatography (SEC) using a

Superdex 200 10/300GL column (GE Healthcare) equilibrated with SEC buffer (20mMHEPES, pH 7.5, 200mM NaCl with either 0.01% DDM or 0.12% OGNG and 0.012%CHS). The eluted protein was treated with 4:1 (w:w, protein:protease) TEV proteaseovernight at 4oC. The TEV protease-cleaved protein was separated from the 6xHis-taggedTEV protease and uncleaved ZMPSTE24 by incubation for 1h with TALON resin at 4oC.The resin was collected in a column and the flow-through and initial wash with SECbuffer were collected and concentrated to 10-20mg/ml using a 100kDa Sartoriusconcentrator for crystallization. The molecular weight of each purified ZMPSTE24construct was confirmed using an MSD-ToF electrospray ionization orthogonal time-of-flight mass spectrometer (Agilent Technologies inc. Palo Alto, CA, USA) (34).

Reconstitution of ZMPSTE24 in proteoliposomes for assaysA 3:1 stock of phosphatidyl-choline (PC) and phosphatidyl-ethanolamine (PE)

(Avanti), supplemented with 10% cholesterol (Affymetrix) was prepared. PurifiedZMPSTE24 was diluted 1 in 4000 with this stock and 2% Triton-X was added beforeincubation with Biobeads (Bio-rad) overnight. A further 1h incubation with freshBiobeads was followed by Biobead removal and centrifugation at 100,000g for 1h. Thepellet containing proteoliposomes was re-suspended in 1.2ml of SEC buffer (20mMHEPES pH7.5, 200mM NaCl). The centrifugation and resuspension steps were repeatedtwice more to ensure removal of all Triton-X.

CrystallizationProtein was concentrated to 20mg/ml, then diluted to 9–11mg/ml using SEC buffer

without added detergent. Crystals were grown at 20ºC from sitting drops (150-300nl) setup in 96-well format using a Mosquito crystallization robot (TTP Labtech) andprotein:reservoir ratios of 1.5:1 and 2:1. Two crystal forms were observed depending onthe purification detergent used. Monoclinic (P21) crystals were obtained with either wildtype ZMPSTE24 or the surface entropy mutant (ZMPSTE24E305A,E306A,E307A) purified in0.015% DDM and crystallized with a reservoir solution containing 30% (v/v) PEG 400,0.1M lithium sulfate, 0.1M sodium chloride, 0.1M MES, pH 6.5. Triclinic (P1) crystalswere obtained from protein with the wild type sequence, purified in 0.12%OGNG/0.012% CHS, and crystallized with a reservoir solution containing 30-42% (v/v)PEG 400, 0.1M HEPES pH 7.5, 0.1M calcium chloride. Crystals were cryocooled bytransfer into liquid nitrogen without the addition of a cryoprotectant. Diffraction of the P1crystal form was improved by transferring crystallization plates to 6ºC and equilibrationfor at least 24h prior to direct flash cooling of crystals.

Structure determination and refinementAll data were collected at 100K on beamlines I04 (P21 form) and I24 (P1 form) at

Diamond Light Source using helical / straight line scans with a beamsize of 10m x 10-30m (wxh) and processed with XDS (35) and AIMLESS (36). The final 3.4Å P1 datasetcomprises 545º degrees of data collected from two independent crystals. Diffraction fromthe monoclinic rods was anisotropic, extending to 3.4Å in the best direction and 5-6Å inthe worst direction. Data collection, phasing and refinement statistics are reported inSupplementary Table S2.

Phasing was initially performed with the P1 form using single isomorphousreplacement with anomalous scattering (SIRAS) from a single mercury derivative. Heavyatom derivative crystals were obtained by soaking crystals for 1-2 days with reservoirsolution containing OGNG/CHS and 1.2 mM ethylmercury thiosalicylate (EMTS). Theheavy atom sub-structure was determined using SHELXD (37). Twelve mercury siteswere identified initially, three per monomer, and phases were then calculated to 3.8Åusing SOLVE/RESOLVE (38). Initial electron density maps revealed a clear molecularboundary and could be moderately improved by four-fold averaging / phase extensionusing the 3.4Å native P1 data. An initial backbone model was built by manually fittingthe transmembrane helices into these maps and then transformed into the P21 asymmetricunit (AU) using PHASER (four copies per AU) (39). Subsequent eight-fold cross-crystalaveraging between the two crystal forms using DMMULTI (40) gave a substantialimprovement in the quality of the experimental phases and allowed tracing of both thetransmembrane and protease domains (Fig. S2). An initial auto-traced model produced byBUCCANEER (41) was manually rebuilt and extended to cover the entire proteasedomain using COOT (42). The electron density was continuous from TMH1-LH1,TMH3-2 strand in the protease domain and from MH3 to the C-terminus.

Validation of the TM helix assignment and sequence register was based onidentification of cysteine residues using the anomalous difference maps calculated fromdata collected from the mercury (EMTS)-soaked derivative crystals. Human ZMPSTE24contains five cysteines (Cys109, Cys176, Cys324, Cys359 and Cys406). Four anomalous peaks,as well the characteristic bulky electron density of sidechains of large hydrophobicresidues, were used to unambiguously assign TMH4, MH3, TMH6 and TMH7. Cys109

lies in a disordered region between LH1 and TMH3 and there was no appreciable peak inan EMTS anomalous difference map. MH3 assignment was also confirmed by theposition of the zinc ion, located using a strong anomalous difference peak calculated fromdata collected at the Zn edge (=1.282Å), as this helix contains the conserved HEXXHzinc-coordinating motif (Fig. S2). Sequence assignment for the kinked TMH3 helix isconsistent with the positioning of Pro140 (Fig. S2G). There was no density in the initialexperimental DMMULTI map or after model building for the N-terminus, the connectingloop region between LH1 and TMH3 or for 36 residues connecting MH2 and MH3,suggesting that these regions are disordered. In contrast, although electron density for theprotease’s -sheet domain (3-4 hairpin) was absent in the multi-crystal averaged mapsdue to local conformation differences in this region in the triclinic and monocliniccrystals, this region was clearly resolved in the averaged map using the 4-fold non-crystallographic symmetry (NCS) in the P1 crystal form.

Refinement was carried out with BUSTER (v. 2.11.2) (43) using all data to 3.4Åwith NCS and TLS restraints. Elongated tubes of persistent electron density, boundbetween TM5 and TM6 on the outer surface of the membrane-spanning region of thebarrel, were modeled as the alkyl chains of a single phospholipid moiety. Residualelectron density, located close to the charged patch around Glu86 within the barrel’s largeintramembrane chamber, could not be sensibly assigned and has been left un-modelled inthe final P1 structure.

The structure has been refined to acceptable R/Rfree values (24.6 / 26.4%) with goodmodel geometry (Table S2). The final P1 model comprises 4 copies of ZMPSTE24 witheach copy encompassing residues 10-107, 116-285, 322-472, a single zinc ion and twophospholipid alkyl chains. The region between MH2 and MH3, encompassing 36residues, could not be resolved in the electron density and no attempt was made to modelthis region. The N-terminus of chain A is more ordered and can be traced back to Gly2.The model has excellent geometry as assessed by the MOLPROBITY server (44) with97% of residues located in favored regions of the Ramachandran plot and no outliers. Thestructure of the monoclinic crystal form will be described elsewhere. The initial density-modified experimental phases, final BUSTER map coefficients and structure factors havebeen deposited in the PDB with codes 4AW6 for the P1 crystal form and 2YPT for thepeptide complex.

Initial P1 peptide co-crystals were obtained by mixing OGNG/CHS-purifiedZMPSTE24 E336A mutant with a 3-fold excess of farnesylated nonapeptide (Gln656-Met664) under similar conditions to the wild type protein. However, datasets collectedfrom such co-crystals showed that the peptide-binding site was empty. These ‘co-crystals’ were then successfully soaked with reservoir solution containing 5mM CSIMtetrapeptide and detergent for 24h at 4ºC. Data were collected to 3.8Å on beamline I24 atDiamond Light Source and processed with XDS (35) and AIMLESS (36). Thecoordinates of the native P1 structure were used as a starting model for refinement withBUSTER (43). Clear difference Fo-Fc electron density in each of the four molecules inthe asymmetric unit was interpreted based on the known binding mode of peptides andinhibitors to metalloproteases. The peptide (mis-)register, with Ser662 and Ile663

positioned in the S1 and S1′ subsites respectively, was determined based on both the length of the electron density, and the definition of the C-terminal methionine which wasreasonably well defined in two molecules (B&D; Fig. S7). The entire tetrapeptide wasmodeled in two cases (B&D) whereas only C661-I663 was modeled in molecules A & E. Inall cases, the quality of the electron density was not sufficient to resolve the CD1 atom ofIle663 and this atom was not included in the model. Refinement was performed withBUSTER with TLS, NCS and LSSR restraints to the native structure (SupplementaryTable S2). Structures were drawn using the open source version of the PyMOL MolecularGraphics System, (Version 1.5, http://www.pymol.org) and the UCSF Chimera package(Figs. 1 to 4, S2 to S5 and S8) (45).

Molecular dynamics simulationsAll MD simulations were performed using GROMACS v4.5.5 (46) at 323 K. Coarse

Grained (CG) MD simulations were run for 1μs to permit the assembly and equilibration of a POPC bilayer around the protease (47, 48). The systems were then converted toatomic detail using the CG2AT-align method described previously (49). The systemswere equilibrated for 1 ns with the protein restrained before 100 ns of unrestrained MD.

Peptide cleavage assayZMPSTE24WT or ZMPSTE24E336A were added to a final concentration of 0.9nM in

50mM HEPES (pH7.5), 200mM NaCl, DDM (0.25%) or OGNG/CHS (0.18%).Synthetic, prelamin A-based peptides (Eurogentec or Peptide Synthetics) were added to a

final concentration of 25uM, 50uM or 100uM in 30µL. The assay was performed intriplicate, using duplicate batches of purified ZMPSTE24, at 37oC for between 90min and48h. Reactions were stopped by heating at 95oC for 2min. Peptides were detected usingmass spectrometry. 5µL of each reaction was diluted, 1 in 10, with 1% formic acid.Reversed-phase chromatography was performed in-line prior to mass spectrometry usingan Agilent 1100 HPLC system (Agilent Technologies inc. Palo Alto, CA, USA). 20-40µlof each sample was injected onto a 1.0 mm x 75 mm Zorbax 5um 300SB-C18 column ora 200 mm long by 4.6 mm internal diameter Zorbax 300SB-C3 column in a column ovenat 60oC. The solvent system used consisted of 0.1% formic acid in ultra-high purity water(Millipore) (solvent A) and 0.1 % formic acid in methanol (LC-MS grade, Fluka)(solvent B). Chromatography was performed as follows: Initial conditions were 95% Aand 5% B and a flow rate of 0.5 ml/min. After 30 seconds at 5% B, a two-stage lineargradient from 10% B to 80% B was applied, over 1.5min and then from 80% B to 95% Bover 6 seconds. Elution proceeded isocratically at 95% B for 2min 24s followed byequilibration at initial conditions for a further 1.5min. Protein or peptide intact mass wasdetermined using an MSD-ToF electrospray ionisation orthogonal time-of-flight massspectrometer (Agilent Technologies Inc. Palo Alto, CA, USA). The instrument wasconfigured as described previously (34). Data analysis was performed using MassHunterQualitative Analysis Version B.04.00 Build 4.0.479.0 (Agilent) software. Individual LCscans were inspected and selected manually based on signal to noise. Varying numbers ofscans were combined depending on the width of the chromatographic peak. Once peptidepeaks had been identified, the extracted ion chromatogram (EIC) function was used tosearch for substrate and products in each assay sample.

Fig. S3. Comparison of the structure of ZMPSTE24 with a soluble M48 family peptidase andthermolysin. (A) The overall fold of ZMPSTE24 exhibits a 7 TM alpha-helical barrelwith a zinc peptidase domain inserted between TM5 and TM6. Dali (50) searchesindicated that the closest structural homologues only showed similarity to the proteasedomain with a soluble M48 Zn-dependent peptidase from Geobacter sulfurreducens(PDB: 3C37; Dali Z-score 8.2). Lower structural similarity is observed with neprilysin (Z-score 4-4.5), several aminopeptidases and thermolysin (Dali Z-score 3.9). In ZMPSTE24, the core protease fold encompasses two contiguous regions ofsecondary structure. The first segment comprises a four-stranded β-sheet interruptedby an α-helix (metalloprotease helix 1 (MH1). The β-sheet is followed by a short α-helix and the HEXXH helix (MH3) containing the zinc-coordinating histidines (His335, His339) and the catalytic acid/base (Glu336). After a variable interveningregion, the second segment of the core protease fold comprises the glutamate helix(TMH7) which bears the third zinc-coordinating residue (Glu415) and a further 2-3 helices (MH4-MH6) which carry residues involved in defining the S1′ and S2′specificity pockets, a conserved histidine involved in catalysis (His459) and aconserved arginine (Arg465) that interacts with the P1′ residue. (B) Schematicrepresentation of the secondary structure of ZMPSTE24 with the protease domainhighlighted. Dotted lines indicate regions that were not resolved in the crystalstructures.

Fig. S6. ZMPSTE24 cleaves peptides derived from the C-terminus of prelamin A at the twoexpected sites and at additional sites. (A) Schematic illustrating the observed productsafter ZMPSTE24 cleavage of a range of Prelamin A based synthetic peptides. (B)Total ion chromatogram (TIC) and deconvoluted substrate and product spectra for Prelamin AS636-C661. Substrate (3045Da) has a retention time of 16.3min with products(12757Da, 1805Da) at 16.1min and 13.1min. ZMPSTE24WT produced 80-86% more product than the partial inactivation mutant, ZMPSTE24E336A. (C) TIC and deconvoluted product and substrate spectra for Prelamin AT643-Q656. Substrate(1578Da) has a retention time of 5.1min with products (1071Da, 958Da, 845Da) at4.9min. (D) TIC and deconvoluted product and substrate spectra for Prelamin AQ656-

M664 (fCys). Substrate (1211Da) has a retention time of 17.2min with products (966Da, 879Da) at 16.4min and 16.6min respectively. The substrate and products for thisreaction elute adjacent to detergents, so the TIC spectra have additional peaks. The

Page 20: Supplementary Materials for...Tetra detector (Malvern Instruments Ltd), which monitors the refractive index, low (7˚) and right angle light scattering, viscosity and UV absorbance

presence of peaks with the exact masses for the substrate and product peptides,however, clearly indicates the presence of the peptides. (E) TIC and deconvolutedproduct and substrate spectra for Prelamin AQ656-M664. Substrate (1006Da) has a retention time of 11.9min with products (762Da, 874Da) at 7.3min and 7.6minrespectively. Peak shifts are observed in the TICs on addition of ZMPSTE24WT (blue)or ZMPSTE24E336A (green) to substrate (red). Analysis of the associated mass-chargeratios for each peak and subsequent deconvolution enables identification of peptidesubstrate and products. Similar results are observed for all peptides when ZMPSTE24is purified in OGNG/CHS or when reconstituted into proteoliposomes. Additionallyall short peptides have gave similar results for ZMPSTE24 purified in DDM and when reconstituted into proteoliposomes, with exception of ZMPSTE24E336A which is not stable in DDM and was therefore only assayed after purification in andreconstitution from OGNG/CHS containing buffer.

Fig. S7. Proposed catalytic mechanism for ZMPSTE24. (A) Reaction mechanism based on thegenerally accepted, two step mechanism of peptide hydrolysis by thermolysin (23,51). The scissile peptide bond of the substrate is schematically represented in blue.ZMPSTE24 differs from thermolysin in that there are no residues directly equivalentto Tyr157 and Asp226 (interacts with protonated histidine), which appear to beassociated with thermolysin-mediated peptide cleavage catalysis. (B) Schematicrepresentation of peptide binding to the active site of ZMPSTE24. Residuescoordinating the catalytic zinc and interacting with the substrate peptide are shown. Numbers in green circles refer to the standard peptide subsite positions relative to thescissile bond. In the initial CAAX cleavage of the prelamin A C-terminus, the farnesylated Cys661 lies in the P1 (+1) position with Ser662 and Ile663 lying in the P1′ (-1) and P2′ (-2) positions respectively. For the second cleavage, Leu647 and Leu648

occupy the P1′ and P2′ positions and Tyr646 occupies the P1 subsite. Figures drawn with ChemDraw (CambridgeSoft Ltd).

Fig. S8. Substrate peptide binding in ZMPSTE24 and comparison with thermolysin. (A) Structure of the 3.8Å ZMPSTE24E336A mutant in complex with a tetrapeptidecorresponding to the unfarnesylated C-terminus of prelamin A (Ser661-Met664).Interactions between the peptide (green carbons) and ZMPSTE24 are shown as greendotted lines. Unexpectedly, the peptide is positioned so that the peptide carbonylgroup of Ser662 interacts with the catalytic zinc ion so that the Ser662 (S1 subsite) -Ile663 (S1′ subsite) peptide bond is poised to be cleaved (bond to be cleaved indicatedby an asterisk). The hydrophobic sidechains of Ile663 and Met664 are directed towards alarge hydrophobic S1′ – S2′ subsite formed by residues from strand β3, MH3, MH4 and MH6. Asn265 on the β3 strand moves towards to the bound peptide and mayinteract directly with the peptide. (B) View of cleaved inhibitor bound to thermolysin (PDB: 3SSB, (26)). For clarity, only the part of the inhibitor interacting with the active site subsites (S4 to S2′) is shown (residues 53-58). The peptide bond betweenAsn56 and Ile57 has been cleaved. This structure was used as a template, in

combination with the experimental electron density for the CSIM peptide, to constructa model of the C-terminus of prelamin A bound to the active site of the nativeZMPSTE24 enzyme with the correct registration so that Cys661 is positioned in the S1position (Fig. 3B & 3C). (C-F) Omit Fo-Fc electron density for the CSIM-soaked crystals at 3.8Å. The catalytic site of each of the four molecules in the P1 asymmetricunit (A, B, D, E) is viewed as in (A). The omit electron density, calculated afterBUSTER refinement (43) using the coordinates of the native P1 structure alone, is shown as a green mesh and contoured at 3σ. The average temperature factors areindicated for each of the protein chains / peptides in the final model. Sufficientdensity was observed for two chains (B/D) to allow modeling of the entiretetrapeptide.

γ Mass of detergent with the PDC

Using refractive index, right angle and low angle light scattering and UV data shown in

Fig. S1B, the molecular weight of the protein detergent complex (PDC), the amount of

detergent in the complex and the percentage of protein in the complex was calculated as

described in Slotboom et al. 2008 (33). The amount of detergent bound to the protein and

therefore the size of the PDC varied with the detergent used to solubilize the protein.
