The coiled-coil motif mediates subunit oligomerization and scaffolding and underlies several fundamental biologic processes. Prohibitins (PHBs), mitochondrial inner membrane proteins involved in mitochondrial homeostasis and signal transduction, are predicted to have a coiled-coil motif, but their structural features are poorly understood. Here we solved the crystal structure of the heptad repeat (HR) region of PHB2 at 1.7-Å resolution, showing that it assembles into a dimeric, antiparallel coil ...[more]
