Cryo-EM structures of mitochondrial ABC transporter ABCB10 in apo and biliverdin-bound form.

ABSTRACT: ABCB10, a member of ABC transporter superfamily that locates in the inner membrane of mitochondria, plays crucial roles in hemoglobin synthesis, antioxidative stress and stabilization of the iron transporter mitoferrin-1. Recently, it was found that ABCB10 is a mitochondrial biliverdin exporter. However, the molecular mechanism of biliverdin export by ABCB10 remains elusive. Here we report the cryo-EM structures of ABCB10 in apo (ABCB10-apo) and biliverdin-bound form (ABCB10-BV) at 3.67 Å and 2.85 Å resolution, respectively. ABCB10-apo adopts a wide-open conformation and may thus represent the apo form structure. ABCB10-BV forms a closed conformation and biliverdin situates in a hydrophobic pocket in one protomer and bridges the interaction through hydrogen bonds with the opposing one. We also identify cholesterols sandwiched by BVs and discuss the export dynamics based on these structural and biochemical observations.

Structures of ABCB10, a human ATP-binding cassette transporter in apo- and nucleotide-bound states.

Project description:ABCB10 is one of the three ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters found in the inner membrane of mitochondria. In mammals ABCB10 is essential for erythropoiesis, and for protection of mitochondria against oxidative stress. ABCB10 is therefore a potential therapeutic target for diseases in which increased mitochondrial reactive oxygen species production and oxidative stress play a major role. The crystal structure of apo-ABCB10 shows a classic exporter fold ABC transporter structure, in an open-inwards conformation, ready to bind the substrate or nucleotide from the inner mitochondrial matrix or membrane. Unexpectedly, however, ABCB10 adopts an open-inwards conformation when complexed with nonhydrolysable ATP analogs, in contrast to other transporter structures which adopt an open-outwards conformation in complex with ATP. The three complexes of ABCB10/ATP analogs reported here showed varying degrees of opening of the transport substrate binding site, indicating that in this conformation there is some flexibility between the two halves of the protein. These structures suggest that the observed plasticity, together with a portal between two helices in the transmembrane region of ABCB10, assist transport substrate entry into the substrate binding cavity. These structures indicate that ABC transporters may exist in an open-inwards conformation when nucleotide is bound. We discuss ways in which this observation can be aligned with the current views on mechanisms of ABC transporters.

Cryo-EM structures of a mycobacterial ABC transporter that mediates rifampicin resistance.

Project description:Drug-resistant Tuberculosis (TB) is a global public health problem. Resistance to rifampicin, the most effective drug for TB treatment, is a major growing concern. The etiological agent, Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb), has a cluster of ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters which are responsible for drug resistance through active export. Here, we describe studies characterizing Mtb Rv1217c-1218c as an ABC transporter that can mediate mycobacterial resistance to rifampicin and have determined the cryo-electron microscopy structures of Rv1217c-1218c. The structures show Rv1217c-1218c has a type V exporter fold. In the absence of ATP, Rv1217c-1218c forms a periplasmic gate by two juxtaposed-membrane helices from each transmembrane domain (TMD), while the nucleotide-binding domains (NBDs) form a partially closed dimer which is held together by four salt-bridges. Adenylyl-imidodiphosphate (AMPPNP) binding induces a structural change where the NBDs become further closed to each other, which downstream translates to a closed conformation for the TMDs. AMPPNP binding results in the collapse of the outer leaflet cavity and the opening of the periplasmic gate, which was proposed to play a role in substrate export. The rifampicin-bound structure shows a hydrophobic and periplasm-facing cavity is involved in rifampicin binding. Phospholipid molecules are observed in all determined structures and form an integral part of the Rv1217c-1218c transporter system. Our results provide a structural basis for a mycobacterial ABC exporter that mediates rifampicin resistance, which can lead to different insights into combating rifampicin resistance.

Cryo-EM structures of apo and atorvastatin-bound human 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase.

Project description:The enzyme 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-coenzyme A reductase (HMGR) regulates the level of cholesterol by catalysing the formation/production of mevalonate and has therefore become an important pharmaceutical target for coronary heart disease. Here, we report the cryo-EM structure of the catalytic part of the enzyme in the apo form and bound with its inhibitor atorvastatin, a commonly used drug in cardiovascular disease, at resolutions of 2.1 and 2.3 Å, respectively. In the cryo-EM maps, part of the N-domain corresponding to amino acids 439-487 is well ordered and could be modelled completely. Atorvastatin molecules were found to occupy all four active sites of the tetrameric complex, and the binding does not alter the conformation of the protein or the active site. The method described here exploits graphene oxide as an additional support and could be used as an alternative to elucidate the structures of pharmaceutical target compounds that are difficult to co-crystallize with human HMGR and for sparsely available samples in drug discovery.

Ligand discrimination and gating in cyclic nucleotide-gated ion channels from apo and partial agonist-bound cryo-EM structures.

Project description:Cyclic nucleotide-modulated channels have important roles in visual signal transduction and pacemaking. Binding of cyclic nucleotides (cAMP/cGMP) elicits diverse functional responses in different channels within the family despite their high sequence and structure homology. The molecular mechanisms responsible for ligand discrimination and gating are unknown due to lack of correspondence between structural information and functional states. Using single particle cryo-electron microscopy and single-channel recording, we assigned functional states to high-resolution structures of SthK, a prokaryotic cyclic nucleotide-gated channel. The structures for apo, cAMP-bound, and cGMP-bound SthK in lipid nanodiscs, correspond to no, moderate, and low single-channel activity, respectively, consistent with the observation that all structures are in resting, closed states. The similarity between apo and ligand-bound structures indicates that ligand-binding domains are strongly coupled to pore and SthK gates in an allosteric, concerted fashion. The different orientations of cAMP and cGMP in the 'resting' and 'activated' structures suggest a mechanism for ligand discrimination.

Apo and ligand-bound high resolution Cryo-EM structures of the human Kv3.1 channel reveal a novel binding site for positive modulators.

Project description:Kv3 ion-channels constitute a class of functionally distinct voltage-gated ion channels characterized by their ability to fire at a high frequency. Several disease relevant mutants, together with biological data, suggest the importance of this class of ion channels as drug targets for CNS disorders, and several drug discovery efforts have been reported. Despite the increasing interest for this class of ion channels, no structure of a Kv3 channel has been reported yet. We have determined the cryo-EM structure of Kv3.1 at 2.6 Å resolution using full-length wild type protein. When compared to known structures for potassium channels from other classes, a novel domain organization is observed with the cytoplasmic T1 domain, containing a well-resolved Zinc site and displaying a rotation by 35°. This suggests a distinct cytoplasmic regulation mechanism for the Kv3.1 channel. A high resolution structure was obtained for Kv3.1 in complex with a novel positive modulator Lu AG00563. The structure reveals a novel ligand binding site for the Kv class of ion channels located between the voltage sensory domain and the channel pore, a region which constitutes a hotspot for disease causing mutations. The discovery of a novel binding site for a positive modulator of a voltage-gated potassium channel could shed light on the mechanism of action for these small molecule potentiators. This finding could enable structure-based drug design on these targets with high therapeutic potential for the treatment of multiple CNS disorders.

Cryo-EM structures of the human surfactant lipid transporter ABCA3.

Project description:The adenosine 5'-triphosphate (ATP)-binding cassette (ABC) transporter ABCA3 plays a critical role in pulmonary surfactant biogenesis. Mutations in human ABCA3 have been recognized as the most frequent causes of inherited surfactant dysfunction disorders. Despite two decades of research, in vitro biochemical and structural studies of ABCA3 are still lacking. Here, we report the cryo-EM structures of human ABCA3 in two distinct conformations, both at resolution of 3.3 Å. In the absence of ATP, ABCA3 adopts a "lateral-opening" conformation with the lateral surfaces of transmembrane domains (TMDs) exposed to the membrane and features two positively charged cavities within the TMDs as potential substrate binding sites. ATP binding induces pronounced conformational changes, resulting in the collapse of the potential substrate binding cavities. Our results help to rationalize the disease-causing mutations in human ABCA3 and suggest a conserved "lateral access and extrusion" mechanism for both lipid export and import mediated by ABCA transporters.

Cryo-EM structures of the Spo11 core complex bound to DNA.

Project description:DNA double-strand breaks that initiate meiotic recombination are formed by the topoisomerase-relative enzyme Spo11, supported by conserved auxiliary factors. Because high-resolution structural data have not been available, many questions remain about the architecture of Spo11 and its partners and how they engage with DNA. We report cryo-electron microscopy structures at up to 3.3-Å resolution of DNA-bound core complexes of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Spo11 with Rec102, Rec104 and Ski8. In these structures, monomeric core complexes make extensive contacts with the DNA backbone and with the recessed 3'-OH and first 5' overhanging nucleotide, establishing the molecular determinants of DNA end-binding specificity and providing insight into DNA cleavage preferences in vivo. The structures of individual subunits and their interfaces, supported by functional data in yeast, provide insight into the role of metal ions in DNA binding and uncover unexpected structural variation in homologs of the Top6BL component of the core complex.

Cardiolipin Regulates the Activity of the Mitochondrial ABC Transporter ABCB10.

Project description:The ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter ABCB10 resides in the inner membrane of mitochondria and is implicated in erythropoiesis. Mitochondria from different cell types share some specific characteristics, one of which is the high abundance of cardiolipin. Although previous studies have provided insight into ABCB10, the affinity and selectivity of this transporter toward lipids, particularly those found in the mitochondria, remain poorly understood. Here, native mass spectrometry is used to directly monitor the binding events of lipids to human ABCB10. The results reveal that ABCB10 binds avidly to cardiolipin with an affinity significantly higher than that of other phospholipids. The first three binding events of cardiolipin display positive cooperativity, which is suggestive of specific cardiolipin-binding sites on ABCB10. Phosphatidic acid is the second-best binder of the lipids investigated. The bulk lipids, phosphatidylcholine and phosphatidylethanolamine, display the weakest binding affinity for ABCB10. Other lipids bind ABCB10 with a similar affinity. Functional assays show that cardiolipin regulates the ATPase activity of ABCB10 in a dose-dependent fashion. ATPase activity of ABCB10 was also impacted in the presence of other lipids but to a lesser extent than cardiolipin. Taken together, ABCB10 has a high binding affinity for cardiolipin, and this lipid also regulates the ATPase activity of the transporter.
