We used resonance energy transfer to examine the distribution of distances between two sites on troponin I (TnI). The donor (D) was the single tryptophan residue at site 158 (Trp 158), and the acceptor (A) was cysteine 133 (Cys 133) which was labeled with N-(iodoacetyl)-N'-(1-sulfo-5-naphthyl)ethylenediamine (IE). A distribution of D-A distances results in a distribution of donor decay times, which were resolved by using frequency-domain fluorometry. In the native state we recovered a relatively narrow distribution of D-A distances. The widths of the distance distributions were found to increase progressively and dramatically with increasing concentrations of guanidine hydrochloride. Binding of calcium-free troponin C (TnC) to troponin I did not alter the distance distribution. Addition of Ca2+ to the TnI.TnC complex resulted in a sharper distance distribution and protected against the guanidine hydrochloride induced increase in the width of the distance distribution. Additionally, the same distance distributions were recovered for native and denatured TnI when the Forster distance for energy transfer was decreased by acrylamide quenching. These results demonstrate that distance distributions can be recovered with good accuracy, to the extent of revealing modest changes due to binding of other components. This technique should have widespread applications in studies of protein folding.
