Surface hydrophobicity modulates the operation of actomyosin-based dynamic nanodevices

We studied the impact of surface hydrophobicity on the motility of actin filaments moving on heavy-meromyosin (HMM)-coated surfaces. Apart from nitrocellulose (NC), which is the current standard for motility assays, all materials tested are good candidates for microfabrication: hydrophilic and hydro...

520 |a We studied the impact of surface hydrophobicity on the motility of actin filaments moving on heavy-meromyosin (HMM)-coated surfaces. Apart from nitrocellulose (NC), which is the current standard for motility assays, all materials tested are good candidates for microfabrication: hydrophilic and hydrophobic glass, poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA), poly(tert-butyl methacrylate) (PtBuMA), and a copolymer of O-acryloyl acetophenone oxime with a 4-acryloyloxybenzophenone (AAPO). The most hydrophilic (hydrophilic glass, contact angle 35 degrees) and the most hydrophobic (PtBuMA, contact angle 78 degrees) surfaces do not maintain the motility of actin filaments, presumably because of the low density of adsorbed HMM protein or its high levels of denaturation, respectively. The velocity of actin filaments presents higher values in the middle of this "surface hydrophobicity motility window" (NC, PMMA), and a bimodal distribution, which is more apparent at the edges of this motility window (hydrophobic glass and AAPO). A molecular surface analysis of HMM and its S1 units suggests that the two very different, temporally separated conformations of the HMM heads could exacerbate the surface-modulated protein behavior, which is common to all microdevices using surface-immobilized proteins. An explanation for the above behavior proposes that the motility of actin filaments on HMM-functionalized surfaces is the result of the action of three populations of motors, each in a different surface-protein conformation, that is, HMM with both heads working (high velocities), working with one head (low velocities), and fully denatured HMM (no motility). It is also proposed that the molecularly dynamic nature of polymer surfaces amplifies the impact of surface hydrophobicity on protein behavior. The study demonstrates that PMMA is a good candidate for the fabrication of future actomyosin-driven dynamic nanodevices because it induces the smoothest motility of individual nano-objects with velocities comparable with those obtained on NC
