The structure of bovine IF(1), the regulatory subunit of mitochondrial F-ATPase.

ABSTRACT: In mitochondria, the hydrolytic activity of ATP synthase is regulated by an inhibitor protein, IF(1). Its binding to ATP synthase depends on pH, and below neutrality, IF(1) is dimeric and forms a stable complex with the enzyme. At higher pH values, IF(1) forms tetramers and is inactive. In the 2.2 A structure of the bovine IF(1) described here, the four monomers in the asymmetric unit are arranged as a dimer of dimers. Monomers form dimers via an antiparallel alpha-helical coiled coil in the C-terminal region. Dimers are associated into oligomers and form long fibres in the crystal lattice, via coiled-coil interactions in the N-terminal and inhibitory regions (residues 14-47). Therefore, tetramer formation masks the inhibitory region, preventing IF(1) binding to ATP synthase.

Crystal structure of the regulatory subunit H of the V-type ATPase of Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Project description:In contrast to the F-type ATPases, which use a proton gradient to generate ATP, the V-type enzymes use ATP to actively transport protons into organelles and extracellular compartments. We describe here the structure of the H-subunit (also called Vma13p) of the yeast enzyme. This is the first structure of any component of a V-type ATPase. The H-subunit is not required for assembly but plays an essential regulatory role. Despite the lack of any apparent sequence homology the structure contains five motifs similar to the so-called HEAT or armadillo repeats seen in the importins. A groove, which is occupied in the importins by the peptide that targets proteins for import into the nucleus, is occupied here by the 10 amino-terminal residues of subunit H itself. The structural similarity suggests how subunit H may interact with the ATPase itself or with other proteins. A cleft between the amino- and carboxyl-terminal domains also suggests another possible site of interaction with other factors.

Rotary catalysis of bovine mitochondrial F1-ATPase studied by single-molecule experiments.

Project description:The reaction scheme of rotary catalysis and the torque generation mechanism of bovine mitochondrial F1 (bMF1) were studied in single-molecule experiments. Under ATP-saturated concentrations, high-speed imaging of a single 40-nm gold bead attached to the γ subunit of bMF1 showed 2 types of intervening pauses during the rotation that were discriminated by short dwell and long dwell. Using ATPγS as a slowly hydrolyzing ATP derivative as well as using a functional mutant βE188D with slowed ATP hydrolysis, the 2 pausing events were distinctively identified. Buffer-exchange experiments with a nonhydrolyzable analog (AMP-PNP) revealed that the long dwell corresponds to the catalytic dwell, that is, the waiting state for hydrolysis, while it remains elusive which catalytic state short pause represents. The angular position of catalytic dwell was determined to be at +80° from the ATP-binding angle, mostly consistent with other F1s. The position of short dwell was found at 50 to 60° from catalytic dwell, that is, +10 to 20° from the ATP-binding angle. This is a distinct difference from human mitochondrial F1, which also shows intervening dwell that probably corresponds to the short dwell of bMF1, at +65° from the binding pause. Furthermore, we conducted "stall-and-release" experiments with magnetic tweezers to reveal how the binding affinity and hydrolysis equilibrium are modulated by the γ rotation. Similar to thermophilic F1, bMF1 showed a strong exponential increase in ATP affinity, while the hydrolysis equilibrium did not change significantly. This indicates that the ATP binding process generates larger torque than the hydrolysis process.

How the regulatory protein, IF(1), inhibits F(1)-ATPase from bovine mitochondria.

Project description:The structure of bovine F(1)-ATPase inhibited by a monomeric form of the inhibitor protein, IF(1), known as I1-60His, lacking most of the dimerization region, has been determined at 2.1-A resolution. The resolved region of the inhibitor from residues 8-50 consists of an extended structure from residues 8-13, followed by two alpha-helices from residues 14-18 and residues 21-50 linked by a turn. The binding site in the beta(DP)-alpha(DP) catalytic interface is complex with contributions from five different subunits of F(1)-ATPase. The longer helix extends from the external surface of F(1) via a deep groove made from helices and loops in the C-terminal domains of subunits beta(DP), alpha(DP), beta(TP), and alpha(TP) to the internal cavity surrounding the central stalk. The linker and shorter helix interact with the gamma-subunit in the central stalk, and the N-terminal region extends across the central cavity to interact with the nucleotide binding domain of the alpha(E) subunit. To form these complex interactions and penetrate into the core of the enzyme, it is likely that the initial interaction of the inhibitor with F(1) forms via the open conformation of the beta(E) subunit. Then, as two ATP molecules are hydrolyzed, the beta(E)-alpha(E) interface converts to the beta(DP)-alpha(DP) interface via the beta(TP)-alpha(TP) interface, trapping the inhibitor progressively in its binding site and a nucleotide in the catalytic site of subunit beta(DP). The inhibition probably arises by IF(1) imposing the structure and properties of the beta(TP)-alpha(TP) interface on the beta(DP)-alpha(DP) interface, thereby preventing it from hydrolyzing the bound ATP.

Novel role of ATPase subunit C targeting peptides beyond mitochondrial protein import.

Project description:In mammals, subunit c of the F(1)F(0)-ATP synthase has three isoforms (P1, P2, and P3). These isoforms differ by their cleavable mitochondrial targeting peptides, whereas the mature peptides are identical. To investigate this apparent genetic redundancy, we knocked down each of the three subunit c isoform by RNA interference in HeLa cells. Silencing any of the subunit c isoforms individually resulted in an ATP synthesis defect, indicating that these isoforms are not functionally redundant. We found that subunit c knockdown impaired the structure and function of the mitochondrial respiratory chain. In particular, P2 silencing caused defective cytochrome oxidase assembly and function. Because the expression of exogenous P1 or P2 was able to rescue the respective silencing phenotypes, but the two isoforms were unable to cross-complement, we hypothesized that their functional specificity resided in their targeting peptides. In fact, the expression of P1 and P2 targeting peptides fused to GFP variants rescued the ATP synthesis and respiratory chain defects in the silenced cells. Our results demonstrate that the subunit c isoforms are nonredundant, because they differ functionally by their targeting peptides, which, in addition to mediating mitochondrial protein import, play a yet undiscovered role in respiratory chain maintenance.

The structure of bovine F1-ATPase inhibited by ADP and beryllium fluoride.

Project description:The structure of bovine F1-ATPase inhibited with ADP and beryllium fluoride at 2.0 angstroms resolution contains two ADP.BeF3- complexes mimicking ATP, bound in the catalytic sites of the beta(TP) and beta(DP) subunits. Except for a 1 angstrom shift in the guanidinium of alphaArg373, the conformations of catalytic side chains are very similar in both sites. However, the ordered water molecule that carries out nucleophilic attack on the gamma-phosphate of ATP during hydrolysis is 2.6 angstroms from the beryllium in the beta(DP) subunit and 3.8 angstroms away in the beta(TP) subunit, strongly indicating that the beta(DP) subunit is the catalytically active conformation. In the structure of F1-ATPase with five bound ADP molecules (three in alpha-subunits, one each in the beta(TP) and beta(DP) subunits), which has also been determined, the conformation of alphaArg373 suggests that it senses the presence (or absence) of the gamma-phosphate of ATP. Two catalytic schemes are discussed concerning the various structures of bovine F1-ATPase.

Isolation, crystallization and crystal structure determination of bovine kidney Na(+),K(+)-ATPase.

Project description:Na(+),K(+)-ATPase is responsible for the transport of Na(+) and K(+) across the plasma membrane in animal cells, thereby sustaining vital electrochemical gradients that energize channels and secondary transporters. The crystal structure of Na(+),K(+)-ATPase has previously been elucidated using the enzyme from native sources such as porcine kidney and shark rectal gland. Here, the isolation, crystallization and first structure determination of bovine kidney Na(+),K(+)-ATPase in a high-affinity E2-BeF3(-)-ouabain complex with bound magnesium are described. Crystals belonging to the orthorhombic space group C2221 with one molecule in the asymmetric unit exhibited anisotropic diffraction to a resolution of 3.7 Å with full completeness to a resolution of 4.2 Å. The structure was determined by molecular replacement, revealing unbiased electron-density features for bound BeF3(-), ouabain and Mg(2+) ions.

Mitochondrial ATPase subunit 6 and cytochrome B gene variations in obese Turkish children.

Project description:ObjectiveDue to the importance of energy metabolism in mitochondria, mitochondrial genome variations are evaluated in energy-related diseases such as obesity. To date, several nuclear genes were found to be related to obesity. Our aim in this study was to investigate the presence of polymorphisms in mitochondrial ATPase subunit 6 (mt-ATP6) and cytochrome b (mt-CytB) genes that may be associated with childhood obesity.MethodsThe mt-ATP6 and mt-CytB genes were amplified and entirely sequenced in a series of 100 obese and in an equal number of healthy Turkish children aged between 6-14 years.ResultsA total of 118 synonymous and nonsynonymous variations were detected in the obese and control groups. Only two previously reported synonymous substitutions (mt.8614T>C and mt.8994G>A) in the mt-ATP6 gene were found to be significantly higher in the obese group compared to the control group (p<0.05). In the mt-ATP6 gene, one novel nonsynonymous substitution (mt.8726C>T) and one novel synonymous substitution (mt.9108A>T) were found. In the mt-CytB gene, one nonsynonymous substitution (mt.14880T>C) and two synonymous substitutions (mt.14891C>T and mt.15091C>T) were novel substitutions.ConclusionTwo synonymous substitutions (mt.8614T>C and mt.8994G>A) in the mt-ATP6 gene may be associated with childhood obesity. Our study provides the first data about mitochondrial genome variations in a Turkish obese population and also the first in obese children. More cases should be screened in obese groups in order to understand the effects of mitochondrial polymorphisms in the development of obesity.

Crystal structure of yeast V-ATPase subunit C reveals its stator function.

Project description:Vacuolar H(+)-ATPase (V-ATPase) has a crucial role in the vacuolar system of eukaryotic cells. It provides most of the energy required for transport systems that utilize the proton-motive force that is generated by ATP hydrolysis. Some, but not all, of the V-ATPase subunits are homologous to those of F-ATPase and the nonhomologous subunits determine the unique features of V-ATPase. We determined the crystal structure of V-ATPase subunit C (Vma5p), which does not show any homology with F-ATPase subunits, at 1.75 A resolution. The structural features suggest that subunit C functions as a flexible stator that holds together the catalytic and membrane sectors of the enzyme. A second crystal form that was solved at 2.9 A resolution supports the flexible nature of subunit C. These structures provide a framework for exploring the unique mechanistic features of V-ATPases.

Crystal structure of the catalytic subunit of bovine pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase.

Project description:Mammalian pyruvate dehydrogenase (PDH) activity is tightly regulated by phosphorylation and dephosphorylation, which is catalyzed by PDH kinase isomers and PDH phosphatase isomers, respectively. PDH phosphatase isomer 1 (PDP1) is a heterodimer consisting of a catalytic subunit (PDP1c) and a regulatory subunit (PDP1r). Here, the crystal structure of bovine PDP1c determined at 2.1 Å resolution is reported. The crystals belonged to space group P3221, with unit-cell parameters a = b = 75.3, c = 173.2 Å. The structure was solved by molecular-replacement methods and refined to a final R factor of 21.9% (Rfree = 24.7%). The final model consists of 402 of a possible 467 amino-acid residues of the PDP1c monomer, two Mn2+ ions in the active site, an additional Mn2+ ion coordinated by His410 and His414, two MnSO4 ion pairs at special positions near the crystallographic twofold symmetry axis and 226 water molecules. Several new features of the PDP1c structure are revealed. The requirements are described and plausible bases are deduced for the interaction of PDP1c with PDP1r and other components of the pyruvate dehydrogenase complex.

Structure of the yeast mitochondrial large ribosomal subunit.

Project description:Mitochondria have specialized ribosomes that have diverged from their bacterial and cytoplasmic counterparts. We have solved the structure of the yeast mitoribosomal large subunit using single-particle cryo-electron microscopy. The resolution of 3.2 angstroms enabled a nearly complete atomic model to be built de novo and refined, including 39 proteins, 13 of which are unique to mitochondria, as well as expansion segments of mitoribosomal RNA. The structure reveals a new exit tunnel path and architecture, unique elements of the E site, and a putative membrane docking site.
