Crystal structure of an EAL domain in complex with reaction product 5'-pGpG.

ABSTRACT: FimX is a large multidomain protein containing an EAL domain and involved in twitching motility in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. We present here two crystallographic structures of the EAL domain of FimX (residues 438-686): one of the apo form and the other of a complex with 5'-pGpG, the reaction product of the hydrolysis of c-di-GMP. In both crystal forms, the EAL domains form a dimer delimiting a large cavity encompassing the catalytic pockets. The ligand is trapped in this cavity by its sugar phosphate moiety. We confirmed by NMR that the guanine bases are not involved in the interaction in solution. We solved here the first structure of an EAL domain bound to the reaction product 5'-pGpG. Though isolated FimX EAL domain has a very low catalytic activity, which would not be significant compared to other catalytic EAL domains, the structure with the product of the reaction can provides some hints in the mechanism of hydrolysis of the c-di-GMP by EAL domains.

Crystal structure of a type III Rubisco in complex with its product 3-phosphoglycerate.

Project description:The crystal structure of the complex of ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco; EC 4.1.1.39) from Archaeoglobus fulgidus (afRubisco) with its products 3PGAs has been determined to a resolution of 1.7 Å and is of the closed form. Type III Rubiscos such as afRubisco have 18 out of the 19 essential amino acid residues of canonical Rubisco; the 19th is Tyr rather than Phe. Superposition with the structure of a complex of the similar tkRubisco with the six-carbon intermediate analog 2CABP shows the same conformation of the 19 residues except for Glu46 and Thr51. Glu46 adopts a unique conformation different from that in other Rubiscos and makes two H-bonds with the ligand 3PGA. Similar to other closed state Rubiscos, the backbone of Thr51 is rotated and the side chain makes an H-bond with the ligand 3PGA. Two product 3PGA molecules are bound at the active site, overlapping well with the 2CABP of tkRubisco/2CABP. The positions of the P1 and P2 phosphate groups differ by 0.4 and 0.53 Å, respectively, between 2CABP and the two 3PGAs. This afRubisco/3PGA complex mimics an intermediate stage of the carboxylation reaction which occurs after the production of the two 3PGA products but before the reopening of the active site. The stability of this complex suggests that the Rubisco active site will not reopen before both 3PGA products are formed.

The crystal structure of the RhoA-AKAP-Lbc DH-PH domain complex.

Project description:The RhoGEF (Rho GTPase guanine-nucleotide-exchange factor) domain of AKAP-Lbc (A-kinase-anchoring protein-Lbc, also known as AKAP13) catalyses nucleotide exchange on RhoA and is involved in the development of cardiac hypertrophy. The RhoGEF activity of AKAP-Lbc has also been implicated in cancer. We have determined the X-ray crystal structure of the complex between RhoA-GDP and the AKAP-Lbc RhoGEF [DH (Dbl-homologous)-PH (pleckstrin homology)] domain to 2.1 Å (1 Å = 0.1 nm) resolution. The structure reveals important differences compared with related RhoGEF proteins such as leukaemia-associated RhoGEF. Nucleotide-exchange assays comparing the activity of the DH-PH domain to the DH domain alone showed no role for the PH domain in nucleotide exchange, which is explained by the RhoA-AKAP-Lbc structure. Comparison with a structure of the isolated AKAP-Lbc DH domain revealed a change in conformation of the N-terminal 'GEF switch' region upon binding to RhoA. Isothermal titration calorimetry showed that AKAP-Lbc has only micromolar affinity for RhoA, which combined with the presence of potential binding pockets for small molecules on AKAP-Lbc, raises the possibility of targeting AKAP-Lbc with GEF inhibitors.

Crystal structure and functional interpretation of the erythrocyte spectrin tetramerization domain complex.

Project description:As the principal component of the membrane skeleton, spectrin confers integrity and flexibility to red cell membranes. Although this network involves many interactions, the most common hemolytic anemia mutations that disrupt erythrocyte morphology affect the spectrin tetramerization domains. Although much is known clinically about the resulting conditions (hereditary elliptocytosis and pyropoikilocytosis), the detailed structural basis for spectrin tetramerization and its disruption by hereditary anemia mutations remains elusive. Thus, to provide further insights into spectrin assembly and tetramer site mutations, a crystal structure of the spectrin tetramerization domain complex has been determined. Architecturally, this complex shows striking resemblance to multirepeat spectrin fragments, with the interacting tetramer site region forming a central, composite repeat. This structure identifies conformational changes in alpha-spectrin that occur upon binding to beta-spectrin, and it reports the first structure of the beta-spectrin tetramerization domain. Analysis of the interaction surfaces indicates an extensive interface dominated by hydrophobic contacts and supplemented by electrostatic complementarity. Analysis of evolutionarily conserved residues suggests additional surfaces that may form important interactions. Finally, mapping of hereditary anemia-related mutations onto the structure demonstrate that most, but not all, local hereditary anemia mutations map to the interacting domains. The potential molecular effects of these mutations are described.

Crystal structure of semi-synthetic obelin-v after calcium induced bioluminescence implies coelenteramine as the main reaction product.

Project description:Coelenterazine-v (CTZ-v), a synthetic vinylene-bridged π-extended derivative, is able to significantly alter bioluminescence spectra of different CTZ-dependent luciferases and photoproteins by shifting them towards longer wavelengths. However, Ca2+-regulated photoproteins activated with CTZ-v display very low bioluminescence activities that hampers its usage as a substrate of photoprotein bioluminescence. Here, we report the crystal structure of semi-synthetic Ca2+-discharged obelin-v bound with the reaction product determined at 2.1 Å resolution. Comparison of the crystal structure of Ca2+-discharged obelin-v with those of other obelins before and after bioluminescence reaction reveals no considerable changes in the overall structure. However, the drastic changes in CTZ-binding cavity are observed owing to the completely different reaction product, coelenteramine-v (CTM-v). Since CTM-v is certainly the main product of obelin-v bioluminescence and is considered to be a product of the "dark" pathway of dioxetanone intermediate decomposition, it explains the low bioluminescence activity of obelin and apparently of other photoproteins with CTZ-v.

Crystal structure of the Jak3 kinase domain in complex with a staurosporine analog.

Project description:Jak (Janus kinase) family nonreceptor tyrosine kinases are central mediators of cytokine signaling. The Jak kinases exhibit distinct cytokine receptor association profiles and so transduce different signals. Jak3 expression is limited to the immune system, where it plays a key role in signal transduction from cytokine receptors containing the common gamma-chain, gammac. Patients unable to signal via gammac present with severe combined immunodeficiency (SCID). The finding that Jak3 mutations result in SCID has made it a target for development of lymphocyte-specific immunosuppressants. Here, we present the crystal structure of the Jak3 kinase domain in complex with staurosporine analog AFN941. The kinase domain is in the active conformation, with both activation loop tyrosine residues phosphorylated. The phosphate group on pTyr981 in the activation loop is in part coordinated by an arginine residue in the regulatory C-helix, suggesting a direct mechanism by which the active position of the C-helix is induced by phosphorylation of the activation loop. Such a direct coupling has not been previously observed in tyrosine kinases and may be unique to Jak kinases. The crystal structure provides a detailed view of the Jak3 active site and will facilitate computational and structure-directed approaches to development of Jak3-specific inhibitors.

Crystal structure of the mineralocorticoid receptor DNA binding domain in complex with DNA.

Project description:The steroid hormone receptors regulate important physiological functions such as reproduction, metabolism, immunity, and electrolyte balance. Mutations within steroid receptors result in endocrine disorders and can often drive cancer formation and progression. Despite the conserved three-dimensional structure shared among members of the steroid receptor family and their overlapping DNA binding preference, activation of individual steroid receptors drive unique effects on gene expression. Here, we present the first structure of the human mineralocorticoid receptor DNA binding domain, in complex with a canonical DNA response element. The overall structure is similar to the glucocorticoid receptor DNA binding domain, but small changes in the mode of DNA binding and lever arm conformation may begin to explain the differential effects on gene regulation by the mineralocorticoid and glucocorticoid receptors. In addition, we explore the structural effects of mineralocorticoid receptor DNA binding domain mutations found in type I pseudohypoaldosteronism and multiple types of cancer.

Crystal structure of the N domain of Lon protease from Mycobacterium avium complex.

Project description:Lon protease is evolutionarily conserved in prokaryotes and eukaryotic organelles. The primary function of Lon is to selectively degrade abnormal and certain regulatory proteins to maintain the homeostasis in vivo. Lon mainly consists of three functional domains and the N-terminal domain is required for the substrate selection and recognition. However, the precise contribution of the N-terminal domain remains elusive. Here, we determined the crystal structure of the N-terminal 192-residue construct of Lon protease from Mycobacterium avium complex at 2.4 å resolution，and measured NMR-relaxation parameters of backbones. This structure consists of two subdomains, the β-strand rich N-terminal subdomain and the five-helix bundle of C-terminal subdomain, connected by a flexible linker，and is similar to the overall structure of the N domain of Escherichia coli Lon even though their sequence identity is only 26%. The obtained NMR-relaxation parameters reveal two stabilized loops involved in the structural packing of the compact N domain and a turn structure formation. The performed homology comparison suggests that structural and sequence variations in the N domain may be closely related to the substrate selectivity of Lon variants. Our results provide the structure and dynamics characterization of a new Lon N domain, and will help to define the precise contribution of the Lon N-terminal domain to the substrate recognition.

Crystal structure of the N-terminal domain of anaphase-promoting complex subunit 7.

Project description:Anaphase-promoting complex or cyclosome (APC/C) is an unusual E3 ubiquitin ligase and an essential protein that controls mitotic progression. APC/C includes at least 13 subunits, but no structure has been determined for any tetratricopeptide repeat (TPR)-containing subunit (Apc3 and -6-8) in the TPR subcomplex of APC/C. Apc7 is a TPR-containing subunit that exists only in vertebrate APC/C. Here we report the crystal structure of quad mutant of nApc7 (N-terminal fragment, residues 1-147) of human Apc7 at a resolution of 2.5 A. The structure of nApc7 adopts a TPR-like motif and has a unique dimerization interface, although the protein does not contain the conserved TPR sequence. Based on the structure of nApc7, in addition to previous experimental findings, we proposed a putative homodimeric structure for full-length Apc7. This model suggests that TPR-containing subunits self-associate and bind to adaptors and substrates via an IR peptide in TPR-containing subunits of APC/C.
