Crystallographic characterization of the N-terminal domain of a plant NADPH oxidase.

ABSTRACT: Respiratory burst oxidase homologue (Rboh), which is found in the plasma membrane, is a generator of reactive oxygen species (ROS) in plants. Many studies have indicated that the ROS produced by Rboh play critical roles in various cellular activities, including plant defence against pathogens. Crystals of the N-terminal domain of Oryza sativa RbohB (OsRbohB) have been obtained. The crystals belonged to space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), with unit-cell parameters a = 60.4, b = 72.2, c = 118.9 A. An intensity data set was collected to 2.4 A resolution.

Structure of the N-terminal regulatory domain of a plant NADPH oxidase and its functional implications.

Project description:Plant NADPH oxidases (Rboh, for respiratory burst oxidase homolog) produce reactive oxygen species that are key regulators of various cellular events including plant innate immunity. Rbohs possess a highly conserved cytoplasmic N-terminal region containing two EF-hand motifs that regulate Rboh activity. Rice (Oryza sativa) RbohB (OsRbohB) is regulated by the direct binding of a small GTPase (Rac1) to this regulatory region as well as by Ca(2+) binding to the EF-hands. Here, we present the atomic structure of the N-terminal region of OsRbohB. The structure reveals that OsRbohB forms a unique dimer stabilized by swapping the EF-hand motifs. We identified two additional EF-hand-like motifs that were not predicted from sequence data so far. These EF-hand-like motifs together with the swapped EF-hands form a structure similar to that found in calcineurin B. We observed conformational changes mediated by Ca(2+) binding to only one EF-hand. Structure-based in vitro pulldown assays and NMR titration experiments defined the OsRac1 binding interface within the coiled-coil region created by swapping the EF-hands. In addition, we demonstrate a direct intramolecular interaction between the N and C terminus, and that the complete N-terminal cytoplasmic region is required for this interaction. The structural features and intramolecular interactions characterized here might be common elements shared by Rbohs that contribute to the regulation of reactive oxygen species production.

Regulation of plant NADPH oxidase.

Project description:The production of Reactive Oxygen Species (ROS) is one of the key events occurring during the response of plants to environmental changes, and contributing to establish adaptive signaling pathways. A plasma membrane bound NADPH oxidase enzyme has been evidenced as the ROS producing system in various plant-microorganisms interactions. We very recently reported, that a protein of the 14-3-3 family was able to interact directly with the C-terminus part of this NADPH oxidase, and that modification of its expression in tobacco cells led to reduced amount of ROS production upon elicitation. In this addendum, we summarize this work, present additional results, and propose an hypothetic model of regulation of this oxidase in a plant defense context.

Crystallization and preliminary crystallographic characterization of the N-terminal Kunitz domain of boophilin.

Project description:Boophilin is a tight-binding thrombin inhibitor composed of two canonical Kunitz-type domains in a tandem arrangement. Thrombin-bound boophilin can inhibit a second trypsin-like serine proteinase, most likely through the reactive loop of its N-terminal Kunitz domain. Here, the crystallization and preliminary crystallographic analysis of the isolated N-terminal domain of boophilin is reported. The crystals belonged to the orthorhombic space group P2(1)2(1)2(1) and diffracted to beyond 1.8 Å resolution using a sealed-tube home source and to 0.87 Å resolution at a synchrotron source.

A fluorescently tagged C-terminal fragment of p47phox detects NADPH oxidase dynamics during phagocytosis.

Project description:The assembly of cytosolic p47(phox) and p67(phox) with flavocytochrome b(558) at the membrane is crucial for activating the leukocyte NADPH oxidase that generates superoxide for microbial killing. p47(phox) and p67(phox) are linked via a high-affinity, tail-to-tail interaction involving a proline-rich region (PRR) and a C-terminal SH3 domain (SH3b), respectively, in their C-termini. This interaction mediates p67(phox) translocation in neutrophils, but is not required for oxidase activity in model systems. Here we examined phagocytosis-induced NADPH oxidase assembly, showing the sequential recruitment of YFP-tagged p67(phox) to the phagosomal cup, and, after phagosome internalization, a probe for PI(3)P followed by a YFP-tagged fragment derived from the p47(phox) PRR. This fragment was recruited in a flavocytochrome b(558)-dependent, p67(phox)-specific, and PI(3)P-independent manner. These findings indicate that p47PRR fragment probes the status of the p67(phox) SH3b domain and suggest that the p47(phox)/p67(phox) tail-to-tail interaction is disrupted after oxidase assembly such that the p67(phox)-SH3b domain becomes accessible. Superoxide generation was sustained within phagosomes, indicating that this change does not correlate with loss of enzyme activity. This study defines a sequence of events during phagocytosis-induced NADPH oxidase assembly and provides experimental evidence that intermolecular interactions within this complex are dynamic and modulated after assembly on phagosomes.

Conformational States and kinetics of the calcium binding domain of NADPH oxidase 5.

Project description:Superoxide generated by human NADPH oxidase 5 (NOX5) is of growing importance for various physiological and pathological processes. The activity of NOX5 appears to be regulated by a self-contained Ca(2+) binding domain (CaBD). Recently Bánfi et al. suggest that the conformational change of CaBD upon Ca(2+) binding is essential for domain-domain interaction and superoxide production. The authors studied its structural change using intrinsic Trp fluorescence and hydrophobic dye binding; however, their conformational study was not thorough and the kinetics of metal binding was not demonstrated. Here we generated the recombinant CaBD and an E99Q/E143Q mutant to characterize them using fluorescence spectroscopy. Ca(2+) binding to CaBD induces a conformational change that exposes hydrophobic patches and increases the quenching accessibilities of its Trp residues and AEDANS at Cys107. The circular dichroism spectra indicated no significant changes in the secondary structures of CaBD upon metal binding. Stopped-flow spectrometry revealed a fast Ca(2+) dissociation from the N-terminal half, followed by a slow Ca(2+) dissociation from the C-terminal half. Combined with a chemical stability study, we concluded that the C-terminal half of CaBD has a higher Ca(2+) binding affinity, a higher chemical stability, and a slow Ca(2+) dissociation. The Mg(2+)-bound CaBD was also investigated and the results indicate that its structure is similar to the apo form. The rate of Mg(2+) dissociation was close to that of Ca(2+) dissociation. Our data suggest that the N- and C-terminal halves of CaBD are not completely structurally independent.

p47phox Phox homology domain regulates plasma membrane but not phagosome neutrophil NADPH oxidase activation.

Project description:The assembly of cytosolic subunits p47(phox), p67(phox), and p40(phox) with flavocytochrome b(558) at the membrane is required for activating the neutrophil NADPH oxidase that generates superoxide for microbial killing. The p47(phox) subunit plays a critical role in oxidase assembly. Recent studies showed that the p47(phox) Phox homology (PX) domain mediates phosphoinositide binding in vitro and regulates phorbol ester-induced NADPH oxidase activity in a K562 myeloid cell model. Because the importance of the p47(phox) PX domain in neutrophils is unclear, we investigated its role using p47(phox) knock-out (KO) mouse neutrophils to express human p47(phox) and derivatives harboring R90A mutations in the PX domain that result in loss of phosphoinositide binding. Human p47(phox) proteins were expressed at levels similar to endogenous murine p47(phox), with the exception of a chronic granulomatous disease-associated R42Q mutant that was poorly expressed, and wild type human p47(phox) rescued p47(phox) KO mouse neutrophil NADPH oxidase activity. Plasma membrane NAPDH oxidase activity was reduced in neutrophils expressing p47(phox) with Arg(90) substitutions, with substantial effects on responses to either phorbol ester or formyl-Met-Leu-Phe and more modest effects to particulate stimuli. In contrast, p47(phox) Arg(90) mutants supported normal levels of intracellular NADPH oxidase activity during phagocytosis of a variety of particles and were recruited to phagosome membranes. This study defines a differential and agonist-dependent role of the p47(phox) PX domain for neutrophil NADPH oxidase activation.

Calmodulin binding to the dehydrogenase domain of NADPH oxidase 5 alters its oligomeric state.

Project description:Superoxide generated by NADPH Oxidase 5 (Nox5) is regulated by Ca2+ through the interaction of its self-contained Ca2+ binding domain and dehydrogenase domain (DH). Recently, calmodulin (CaM) has been reported to enhance the Ca2+ sensitivity of Nox5 by binding to the CaM-binding domain sequence (CMBD), in which the interaction between CaM and Nox5 is largely unclear. Here, we used the CMBD peptide and truncated DH constructs, and separately studied their interaction with CaM by fluorescence, calorimetry, and dynamic light scattering. Our results revealed that each half-domain of CaM binds one CMBD peptide with a binding constant near 106 M-1 and a binding enthalpy change of -3.81 kcal/mol, consistent with an extended 1:2 CaM:CMBD structure. However, the recombinant truncated DH proteins exist as oligomers, possibly trimer and tetramer. The oligomeric states are concentration and salt dependent. CaM binding appears to stabilize the DH dimer complexed with CaM. The thermodynamics of CaM binding to the DH is comparable to the peptide-based study except that the near unity binding stoichiometry and a large conformational change were observed. Our result suggests that the oligomeric states of Nox5, mediated by its DH domain and CaM, may be important for its superoxide-generating activity.

Phosphorylation of p47phox directs phox homology domain from SH3 domain toward phosphoinositides, leading to phagocyte NADPH oxidase activation.

Project description:Protein-phosphoinositide interaction participates in targeting proteins to membranes where they function correctly and is often modulated by phosphorylation of lipids. Here we show that protein phosphorylation of p47(phox), a cytoplasmic activator of the microbicidal phagocyte oxidase (phox), elicits interaction of p47(phox) with phosphoinositides. Although the isolated phox homology (PX) domain of p47(phox) can interact directly with phosphoinositides, the lipid-binding activity of this protein is normally suppressed by intramolecular interaction of the PX domain with the C-terminal Src homology 3 (SH3) domain, and hence the wild-type full-length p47(phox) is incapable of binding to the lipids. The W263R substitution in this SH3 domain, abrogating the interaction with the PX domain, leads to a binding of p47(phox) to phosphoinositides. The findings indicate that disruption of the intramolecular interaction renders the PX domain accessible to the lipids. This conformational change is likely induced by phosphorylation of p47(phox), because protein kinase C treatment of the wild-type p47(phox) but not of a mutant protein with the S303304328A substitution culminates in an interaction with phosphoinositides. Furthermore, although the wild-type p47(phox) translocates upon cell stimulation to membranes to activate the oxidase, neither the kinase-insensitive p47(phox) nor lipid-binding-defective proteins, one lacking the PX domain and the other carrying the R90K substitution in this domain, migrates. Thus the protein phosphorylation-driven conformational change of p47(phox) enables its PX domain to bind to phosphoinositides, the interaction of which plays a crucial role in recruitment of p47(phox) from the cytoplasm to membranes and subsequent activation of the phagocyte oxidase.

Characterization of Rice NADPH oxidase genes and their expression under various environmental conditions.

Project description:Plasma membrane NADPH oxidases (Noxs) are key producers of reactive oxygen species under both normal and stress conditions in plants. We demonstrate that at least eleven genes in the genome of rice (Oryza sativa L.) were predicted to encode Nox proteins, including nine genes (OsNox1-9) that encode typical Noxs and two that encode ancient Nox forms (ferric reduction oxidase 1 and 7, OsFRO1 and OsFRO7). Phylogenetic analysis divided the Noxs from nine plant species into six subfamilies, with rice Nox genes distributed among subfamilies I to V. Gene expression analysis using semi-quantitative RT-PCR and real-time qRT-PCR indicated that the expression of rice Nox genes depends on organs and environmental conditions. Exogenous calcium strongly stimulated the expression of OsNox3, OsNox5, OsNox7, and OsNox8, but depressed the expression of OsFRO1. Drought stress substantially upregulated the expression of OsNox1-3, OsNox5, OsNox9, and OsFRO1, but downregulated OsNox6. High temperature upregulated OsNox5-9, but significantly downregulated OsNox1-3 and OsFRO1. NaCl treatment increased the expression of OsNox2, OsNox8, OsFRO1, and OsFRO7, but decreased that of OsNox1, OsNox3, OsNox5, and OsNox6. These results suggest that the expression profiles of rice Nox genes have unique stress-response characteristics, reflecting their related but distinct functions in response to different environmental stresses.
