Structure of the non-catalytic domain of the protein disulfide isomerase-related protein (PDIR) reveals function in protein binding.

ABSTRACT: Protein disulfide isomerases comprise a large family of enzymes responsible for catalyzing the proper oxidation and folding of newly synthesized proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Protein disulfide isomerase-related (PDIR) protein (also known as PDIA5) is a specialized member that participates in the folding of ?1-antitrypsin and N-linked glycoproteins. Here, the crystal structure of the non-catalytic domain of PDIR was determined to 1.5 Å resolution. The structure adopts a thioredoxin-like fold stabilized by a structural disulfide bridge with a positively charged binding surface for interactions with the ER chaperones, calreticulin and ERp72. Crystal contacts between molecules potentially mimic the interactions of PDIR with misfolded substrate proteins. The results suggest that the non-catalytic domain of PDIR plays a key role in the recognition of protein partners and substrates.

Structure of the third catalytic domain of the protein disulfide isomerase ERp46.

Project description:Protein disulfide isomerases are responsible for catalyzing the proper oxidation and isomerization of disulfide bonds of newly synthesized proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum. Here, the crystal structure of the third catalytic domain of protein disulfide isomerase ERp46 (also known as protein disulfide isomerase A5 and TXNDC5) was determined to 2.0 Å resolution. The structure shows a typical thioredoxin-like fold, but also identifies regions of high structural variability. In particular, the loop between helix α2 and strand β3 adopts strikingly different conformations among the five chains of the asymmetric unit. Cys381 and Cys388 form a structural disulfide and its absence in one of the molecules leads to dramatic conformational changes. The tryptophan residue Trp349 of this molecule inserts into the cavity formed by helices α1 and α3 of a neighbouring molecule, potentially mimicking the interactions of ERp46 with misfolded substrates.

Structure of the substrate-binding b' domain of the Protein Disulfide Isomerase-Like protein of the Testis.

Project description:Protein Disulfide Isomerase-Like protein of the Testis (PDILT) is a testis-specific member of the PDI family. PDILT displays similar domain architecture to PDIA1, the founding member of this protein family, but lacks catalytic cysteines needed for oxidoreduction reactions. This suggests special importance of chaperone activity of PDILT, but how it recognizes misfolded protein substrates is unknown. Here, we report the high-resolution crystal structure of the b' domain of human PDILT. The structure reveals a conserved hydrophobic pocket, which is likely a principal substrate-binding site in PDILT. In the crystal, this pocket is occupied by side chains of tyrosine and tryptophan residues from another PDILT molecule, suggesting a preference for binding exposed aromatic residues in protein substrates. The lack of interaction of the b' domain with the P-domains of calreticulin-3 and calmegin hints at a novel way of interaction between testis-specific lectin chaperones and PDILT. Further studies of this recently discovered PDI member would help to understand the important role that PDILT plays in the differentiation and maturation of spermatozoids.

Quercetin-3-rutinoside Inhibits Protein Disulfide Isomerase by Binding to Its b'x Domain.

Project description:Quercetin-3-rutinoside inhibits thrombus formation in a mouse model by inhibiting extracellular protein disulfide isomerase (PDI), an enzyme required for platelet thrombus formation and fibrin generation. Prior studies have identified PDI as a potential target for novel antithrombotic agents. Using a fluorescence enhancement-based assay and isothermal calorimetry, we show that quercetin-3-rutinoside directly binds to the b' domain of PDI with a 1:1 stoichiometry. The binding of quercetin-3-rutinoside to PDI induces a more compact conformation and restricts the conformational flexibility of PDI, as revealed by small angle x-ray scattering. The binding sites of quercetin-3-rutinoside to PDI were determined by studying its interaction with isolated fragments of PDI. Quercetin-3-rutinoside binds to the b'x domain of PDI. The infusion of the b'x fragment of PDI rescued thrombus formation that was inhibited by quercetin-3-rutinoside in a mouse thrombosis model. This b'x fragment does not possess reductase activity and, in the absence of quercetin-3-rutinoside, does not affect thrombus formation in vivo. The isolated b' domain of PDI has potential as an antidote to reverse the antithrombotic effect of quercetin-3-rutinoside by binding and neutralizing quercetin-3-rutinoside.

Structure and function of Bacillus subtilis YphP, a prokaryotic disulfide isomerase with a CXC catalytic motif .

Project description:The DUF1094 family contains over 100 bacterial proteins, all containing a conserved CXC motif, with unknown function. We solved the crystal structure of the Bacillus subtilis representative, the product of the yphP gene. The protein shows remarkable structural similarity to thioredoxins, with a canonical alphabetaalphabetaalphabetabetaalpha topology, despite low amino acid sequence identity to thioredoxin. The CXC motif is found in the loop immediately downstream of the first beta-strand, in a location equivalent to the CXXC motif of thioredoxins, with the first Cys occupying a position equivalent to the first Cys in canonical thioredoxin. The experimentally determined reduction potential of YphP is E degrees' = -130 mV, significantly higher than that of thioredoxin and consistent with disulfide isomerase activity. Functional assays confirmed that the protein displays a level of isomerase activity that might be biologically significant. We propose a mechanism by which the members of this family catalyze isomerization using the CXC catalytic site.

Characterization of the estradiol-binding site structure of human protein disulfide isomerase (PDI).

Project description:BackgroundEarlier studies showed that 17β-estradiol (E(2)), an endogenous female sex hormone, can bind to human protein disulfide isomerase (PDI), a protein folding catalyst for disulfide bond formation and rearrangement. This binding interaction can modulate the intracellular levels of E(2) and its biological actions. However, the structure of PDI's E(2)-binding site is still unclear at present, which is the focus of this study.Methodology/principal findingsThe E(2)-binding site structure of human PDI was studied by using various biochemical approaches coupled with radiometric receptor-binding assays, site-directed mutagenesis, and molecular computational modeling. Analysis of various PDI protein fragments showed that the [(3)H]E(2)-binding activity is not associated with the single b or b' domain but is associated with the b-b' domain combination. Computational docking analyses predicted that the E(2)-binding site is located in a hydrophobic pocket composed mainly of the b' domain and partially of the b domain. A hydrogen bond, formed between the 3-hydroxyl group of E(2) and His256 of PDI is critical for the binding interaction. This binding model was jointly confirmed by a series of detailed experiments, including site-directed mutagenesis of the His256 residue coupled with selective modifications of the ligand structures to alter the binding interaction.Conclusions/significanceThe results of this study elucidated the structural basis for the PDI-E(2) binding interaction and the reservoir role of PDI in modulating the intracellular E(2) levels. The identified PDI E(2)-binding site is quite different from its known peptide binding sites. Given that PDI is a potential therapeutic target for cancer chemotherapy and HIV prevention and that E(2) can inhibit PDI activity in vitro, the E(2)-binding site structure of human PDI determined here offers structural insights which may aid in the rational design of novel PDI inhibitors.

The catalytic activity of protein-disulfide isomerase requires a conformationally flexible molecule.

Project description:Protein-disulfide isomerase (PDI) catalyzes the formation of the correct pattern of disulfide bonds in secretory proteins. A low resolution crystal structure of yeast PDI described here reveals large scale conformational changes compared with the initially reported structure, indicating that PDI is a highly flexible molecule with its catalytic domains, a and a', representing two mobile arms connected to a more rigid core composed of the b and b' domains. Limited proteolysis revealed that the linker between the a domain and the core is more susceptible to degradation than that connecting the a' domain to the core. By restricting the two arms with inter-domain disulfide bonds, the molecular flexibility of PDI, especially that of its a domain, was demonstrated to be essential for the enzymatic activity in vitro and in vivo. The crystal structure also featured a PDI dimer, and a propensity to dimerize in solution and in the ER was confirmed by cross-linking experiments and the split green fluorescent protein system. Although sedimentation studies suggested that the self-association of PDI is weak, we hypothesize that PDI exists as an interconvertible mixture of monomers and dimers in the endoplasmic reticulum due to its high abundance in this compartment.

Structural basis of redox-dependent substrate binding of protein disulfide isomerase.

Project description:Protein disulfide isomerase (PDI) is a multidomain enzyme, operating as an essential folding catalyst, in which the b' and a' domains provide substrate binding sites and undergo an open-closed domain rearrangement depending on the redox states of the a' domain. Despite the long research history of this enzyme, three-dimensional structural data remain unavailable for its ligand-binding mode. Here we characterize PDI substrate recognition using α-synuclein (αSN) as the model ligand. Our nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) data revealed that the substrate-binding domains of PDI captured the αSN segment Val37-Val40 only in the oxidized form. Furthermore, we determined the crystal structure of an oxidized form of the b'-a' domains in complex with an undecapeptide corresponding to this segment. The peptide-binding mode observed in the crystal structure with NMR validation, was characterized by hydrophobic interactions on the b' domain in an open conformation. Comparison with the previously reported crystal structure indicates that the a' domain partially masks the binding surface of the b' domain, causing steric hindrance against the peptide in the reduced form of the b'-a' domains that exhibits a closed conformation. These findings provide a structural basis for the mechanism underlying the redox-dependent substrate binding of PDI.

The crystal structure of the protein-disulfide isomerase family member ERp27 provides insights into its substrate binding capabilities.

Project description:About one-third of all cellular proteins pass through the secretory pathway and hence undergo oxidative folding in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Protein-disulfide isomerase (PDI) and related members of the PDI family assist in the folding of substrates by catalyzing the oxidation of two cysteines and isomerization of disulfide bonds as well as by acting as chaperones. In this study, we present the crystal structure of ERp27, a redox-inactive member of the PDI family. The structure reveals its substrate-binding cleft, which is homologous to PDI, but is able to adapt in size and hydrophobicity. Isothermal titration calorimetry experiments demonstrate that ERp27 is able to distinguish between folded and unfolded substrates, only interacting with the latter. ERp27 is up-regulated during ER stress, thus presumably allowing it to bind accumulating misfolded substrates and present them to ERp57 for catalysis.

Crystal structure of the Mp1p ligand binding domain 2 reveals its function as a fatty acid-binding protein.

Project description:Penicillium marneffei is a dimorphic, pathogenic fungus in Southeast Asia that mostly afflicts immunocompromised individuals. As the only dimorphic member of the genus, it goes through a phase transition from a mold to yeast form, which is believed to be a requisite for its pathogenicity. Mp1p, a cell wall antigenic mannoprotein existing widely in yeast, hyphae, and conidia of the fungus, plays a vital role in host immune response during infection. To understand the function of Mp1p, we have determined the x-ray crystal structure of its ligand binding domain 2 (LBD2) to 1.3 A. The structure reveals a dimer between the two molecules. The dimer interface forms a ligand binding cavity, in which electron density was observed for a palmitic acid molecule interacting with LBD2 indirectly through hydrogen bonding networks via two structural water molecules. Isothermal titration calorimetry experiments measured the ligand binding affinity (K(d)) of Mp1p at the micromolar level. Mutations of ligand-binding residues, namely S313A and S332A, resulted in a 9-fold suppression of ligand binding affinity. Analytical ultracentrifugation assays demonstrated that both LBD2 and Mp1p are mostly monomeric in vitro, no matter with or without ligand, and our dimeric crystal structure of LBD2 might be the result of crystal packing. Based on the conformation of the ligand-binding pocket in the dimer structure, a model for the closed, monomeric form of LBD2 is proposed. Further structural analysis indicated the biological importance of fatty acid binding of Mp1p for the survival and pathogenicity of the conditional pathogen.

Non-catalytic participation of the Pin1 peptidyl-prolyl isomerase domain in target binding.

Project description:Pin1 is a phosphorylation-dependent peptidyl-prolyl isomerase (PPIase) that has the potential to add an additional level of regulation within protein kinase mediated signaling pathways. Furthermore, there is a mounting body of evidence implicating Pin1 in the emergence of pathological phenotypes in neurodegeneration and cancer through the isomerization of a wide variety of substrates at peptidyl-prolyl bonds where the residue preceding proline is a phosphorylated serine or threonine residue (i.e., pS/T-P motifs). A key step in this regulatory process is the interaction of Pin-1 with its substrates. This is a complex process since Pin1 is composed of two domains, the catalytic PPIase domain, and a type IV WW domain, both of which recognize pS/T-P motifs. The observation that the WW domain exhibits considerably higher binding affinity for pS/T-P motifs has led to predictions that the two domains may have distinct roles in mediating the actions of Pin1 on its substrates. To evaluate the participation of its individual domains in target binding, we performed GST pulldowns to monitor interactions between various forms of Pin1 and mitotic phospho-proteins that revealed two classes of Pin-1 interacting proteins, differing in their requirement for residues within the PPIase domain. From these observations, we consider models for Pin1-substrate interactions and the potential functions of the different classes of Pin1 interacting proteins. We also compare sequences that are recognized by Pin1 within its individual interaction partners to investigate the underlying basis for its different types of interactions.
