Asymmetric structure of the yeast F1 ATPase in the absence of bound nucleotides.

ABSTRACT: The crystal structure of nucleotide-free yeast F(1) ATPase has been determined at a resolution of 3.6 A. The overall structure is very similar to that of the ground state enzyme. In particular, the beta(DP) and beta(TP) subunits both adopt the closed conformation found in the ground state structure despite the absence of bound nucleotides. This implies that interactions between the gamma and beta subunits are as important as nucleotide occupancy in determining the conformational state of the beta subunits. Furthermore, this result suggests that for the mitochondrial enzyme, there is no state of nucleotide occupancy that would result in more than one of the beta subunits adopting the open conformation. The adenine-binding pocket of the beta(TP) subunit is disrupted in the apoenzyme, suggesting that the beta(DP) subunit is responsible for unisite catalytic activity.

Novel features of the rotary catalytic mechanism revealed in the structure of yeast F1 ATPase.

Project description:The crystal structure of yeast mitochondrial F(1) ATPase contains three independent copies of the complex, two of which have similar conformations while the third differs in the position of the central stalk relative to the alpha(3)beta(3) sub-assembly. All three copies display very similar asymmetric features to those observed for the bovine enzyme, but the yeast F(1) ATPase structures provide novel information. In particular, the active site that binds ADP in bovine F(1) ATPase has an ATP analog bound and therefore this structure does not represent the ADP-inhibited form. In addition, one of the complexes binds phosphate in the nucleotide-free catalytic site, and comparison with other structures provides a picture of the movement of the phosphate group during initial binding and subsequent catalysis. The shifts in position of the central stalk between two of the three copies of yeast F(1) ATPase and when these structures are compared to those of the bovine enzyme give new insight into the conformational changes that take place during rotational catalysis.

The missing link between thermodynamics and structure in F1-ATPase.

Project description:F(1)F(o)-ATP synthase is the enzyme responsible for most of the ATP synthesis in living systems. The catalytic domain F(1) of the F(1)F(o) complex, F(1)-ATPase, has the ability to hydrolyze ATP. A fundamental problem in the development of a detailed mechanism for this enzyme is that it has not been possible to determine experimentally the relation between the ligand binding affinities measured in solution and the different conformations of the catalytic beta subunits (beta(TP), beta(DP), beta(E)) observed in the crystal structures of the mitochondrial enzyme, MF(1). Using free energy difference simulations for the hydrolysis reaction ATP+H(2)O --> ADP+P(i) in the beta(TP) and beta(DP) sites and unisite hydrolysis data, we are able to identify beta(TP) as the "tight" (K(D) = 10(-12) M, MF(1)) binding site for ATP and beta(DP) as the "loose" site. An energy decomposition analysis demonstrates how certain residues, some of which have been shown to be important in catalysis, modulate the free energy of the hydrolysis reaction in the beta(TP) and beta(DP) sites, even though their structures are very similar. Combined with the recently published simulations of the rotation cycle of F(1)-ATPase, the present results make possible a consistent description of the binding change mechanism of F(1)-ATPase at an atomic level of detail.

Comparison between single-molecule and X-ray crystallography data on yeast F1-ATPase.

Project description:Single molecule studies in recent decades have elucidated the full chemo-mechanical cycle of F1-ATPase, mostly based on F1 from thermophilic bacteria. In contrast, high-resolution crystal structures are only available for mitochondrial F1. Here we present high resolution single molecule rotational data on F1 from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, obtained using new high throughput detection and analysis tools. Rotational data are presented for the wild type mitochondrial enzyme, a "liver" isoform, and six mutant forms of yeast F1 that have previously been demonstrated to be less efficient or partially uncoupled. The wild-type and "liver" isoforms show the same qualitative features as F1 from Escherichia coli and thermophilic bacteria. The analysis of the mutant forms revealed a delay at the catalytic dwell and associated decrease in Vmax, with magnitudes consistent with the level of disruption seen in the crystal structures. At least one of the mutant forms shows a previously un-observed dwell at the ATP binding angle, potentially attributable to slowed release of ADP. We discuss the correlation between crystal structures and single molecule results.

Chaperones of F1-ATPase.

Project description:Mitochondrial F(1)-ATPase contains a hexamer of alternating alpha and beta subunits. The assembly of this structure requires two specialized chaperones, Atp11p and Atp12p, that bind transiently to beta and alpha. In the absence of Atp11p and Atp12p, the hexamer is not formed, and alpha and beta precipitate as large insoluble aggregates. An early model for the mechanism of chaperone-mediated F(1) assembly (Wang, Z. G., Sheluho, D., Gatti, D. L., and Ackerman, S. H. (2000) EMBO J. 19, 1486-1493) hypothesized that the chaperones themselves look very much like the alpha and beta subunits, and proposed an exchange of Atp11p for alpha and of Atp12p for beta; the driving force for the exchange was expected to be a higher affinity of alpha and beta for each other than for the respective chaperone partners. One important feature of this model was the prediction that as long as Atp11p is bound to beta and Atp12p is bound to alpha, the two F(1) subunits cannot interact at either the catalytic site or the noncatalytic site interface. Here we present the structures of Atp11p from Candida glabrata and Atp12p from Paracoccus denitrificans, and we show that some features of the Wang model are correct, namely that binding of the chaperones to alpha and beta prevents further interactions between these F(1) subunits. However, Atp11p and Atp12p do not resemble alpha or beta, and it is instead the F(1) gamma subunit that initiates the release of the chaperones from alpha and beta and their further assembly into the mature complex.

Engineering a light-controlled F1 ATPase using structure-based protein design.

Project description:The F1 sub-complex of ATP synthase is a biological nanomotor that converts the free energy of ATP hydrolysis into mechanical work with an astonishing efficiency of up to 100% (Kinosita et al., 2000). To probe the principal mechanics of the machine, I re-engineered the active site of E.coli F1 ATPase with a structure-based protein design approach: by incorporation of a site-specific, photoswitchable crosslinker, whose end-to-end distance can be modulated by illumination with light of two different wavelengths, a dynamic constraint was imposed on the inter-atomic distances of the α and β subunits. Crosslinking reduced the ATP hydrolysis activity of four designs tested in vitro and in one case created a synthetic ATPase whose activity can be reversibly modulated by subsequent illumination with near UV and blue light. The work is a first step into the direction of the long-term goal to design nanoscaled machines based on biological parts that can be precisely controlled by light.

Structure of the yeast vacuolar ATPase.

Project description:The subunit architecture of the yeast vacuolar ATPase (V-ATPase) was analyzed by single particle transmission electron microscopy and electrospray ionization (ESI) tandem mass spectrometry. A three-dimensional model of the intact V-ATPase was calculated from two-dimensional projections of the complex at a resolution of 25 angstroms. Images of yeast V-ATPase decorated with monoclonal antibodies against subunits A, E, and G position subunit A within the pseudo-hexagonal arrangement in the V1, the N terminus of subunit G in the V1-V0 interface, and the C terminus of subunit E at the top of the V1 domain. ESI tandem mass spectrometry of yeast V1-ATPase showed that subunits E and G are most easily lost in collision-induced dissociation, consistent with a peripheral location of the subunits. An atomic model of the yeast V-ATPase was generated by fitting of the available x-ray crystal structures into the electron microscopy-derived electron density map. The resulting atomic model of the yeast vacuolar ATPase serves as a framework to help understand the role the peripheral stalk subunits are playing in the regulation of the ATP hydrolysis driven proton pumping activity of the vacuolar ATPase.

Trinitrophenyl derivatives bind differently from parent adenine nucleotides to Ca2+-ATPase in the absence of Ca2+.

Project description:Trinitrophenyl derivatives of adenine nucleotides are widely used for probing ATP-binding sites. Here we describe crystal structures of Ca(2+)-ATPase, a representative P-type ATPase, in the absence of Ca(2+) with bound ATP, trinitrophenyl-ATP, -ADP, and -AMP at better than 2.4-Å resolution, stabilized with thapsigargin, a potent inhibitor. These crystal structures show that the binding mode of the trinitrophenyl derivatives is distinctly different from the parent adenine nucleotides. The adenine binding pocket in the nucleotide binding domain of Ca(2+)-ATPase is now occupied by the trinitrophenyl group, and the side chains of two arginines sandwich the adenine ring, accounting for the much higher affinities of the trinitrophenyl derivatives. Trinitrophenyl nucleotides exhibit a pronounced fluorescence in the E2P ground state but not in the other E2 states. Crystal structures of the E2P and E2 ? P analogues of Ca(2+)-ATPase with bound trinitrophenyl-AMP show that different arrangements of the three cytoplasmic domains alter the orientation and water accessibility of the trinitrophenyl group, explaining the origin of "superfluorescence." Thus, the crystal structures demonstrate that ATP and its derivatives are highly adaptable to a wide range of site topologies stabilized by a variety of interactions.

Structure of spinach chloroplast F1-ATPase complexed with the phytopathogenic inhibitor tentoxin.

Project description:Tentoxin, a natural cyclic tetrapeptide produced by phytopathogenic fungi from the Alternaria species affects the catalytic function of the chloroplast F(1)-ATPase in certain sensitive species of plants. In this study, we show that the uncompetitive inhibitor tentoxin binds to the alphabeta-interface of the chloroplast F(1)-ATPase in a cleft localized at betaAsp-83. Most of the binding site is located on the noncatalytic alpha-subunit. The crystal structure of the tentoxin-inhibited CF(1)-complex suggests that the inhibitor is hydrogen bonded to Asp-83 in the catalytic beta-subunit but forms hydrophobic contacts with residues Ile-63, Leu-65, Val-75, Tyr-237, Leu-238, and Met-274 in the adjacent alpha-subunit. Except for minor changes around the tentoxin-binding site, the structure of the chloroplast alpha(3)beta(3)-core complex is the same as that determined with the native chloroplast ATPase. Tentoxin seems to act by inhibiting inter-subunit contacts at the alphabeta-interface and by blocking the interconversion of binding sites in the catalytic mechanism.

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.

Crystal structures of mutant forms of the yeast F1 ATPase reveal two modes of uncoupling.

Project description:The mitochondrial ATP synthase couples the flow of protons with the phosphorylation of ADP. A class of mutations, the mitochondrial genome integrity (mgi) mutations, has been shown to uncouple this process in the yeast mitochondrial ATP synthase. Four mutant forms of the yeast F(1) ATPase with mgi mutations were crystallized; the structures were solved and analyzed. The analysis identifies two mechanisms of structural uncoupling: one in which the empty catalytic site is altered and in doing so, apparently disrupts substrate (phosphate) binding, and a second where the steric hindrance predicted between γLeu83 and β(DP) residues, Leu-391 and Glu-395, located in Catch 2 region, is reduced allowing rotation of the γ-subunit with less impedance. Overall, the structures provide key insights into the critical interactions in the yeast ATP synthase involved in the coupling process.
