Abstract

Despite its small size and deceptively simple domain organization, PTEN remains a challenging structural target due to its N- and C-terminal intrinsically disordered segments, and the conformational heterogeneity caused by phosphorylation of its C terminus. Using hydrogen/deuterium exchange mass spectrometry (HDX-MS), it is possible to probe the conformational dynamics of the disordered termini, and also to determine how PTEN binds to lipid membranes. Here, we describe how to purify recombinant, homogenously dephosphorylated PTEN from a eukaryotic system for subsequent investigation with HDX-MS or crystallography.
