The vacuolar ATPase (V‐ATPase; V1Vo‐ATPase) is a large multisubunit proton pump found in the endomembrane system of all eukaryotic cells where it acidifies the lumen of subcellular organelles including lysosomes, endosomes, the Golgi apparatus, and clathrin‐coated vesicles. V‐ATPase function is essential for pH and ion homeostasis, protein trafficking, endocytosis, mechanistic target of rapamycin (mTOR), and Notch signaling, as well as hormone secretion and neurotransmitter release. V‐ATPase can also be found in the plasma membrane of polarized animal cells where its proton pumping function is involved in bone remodeling, urine acidification, and sperm maturation. Aberrant (hypo or hyper) activity has been associated with numerous human diseases and the V‐ATPase has therefore been recognized as a potential drug target. Recent progress with moderate to high‐resolution structure determination by cryo electron microscopy and X‐ray crystallography together with sophisticated single‐molecule and biochemical experiments have provided a detailed picture of the structure and unique mode of regulation of the V‐ATPase. This review summarizes the recent advances, focusing on the structural and biophysical aspects of the field. 相似文献

V‐type ATPases (V‐ATPases) are categorized as rotary ATP synthase/ATPase complexes. The V‐ATPases are distinct from F‐ATPases in terms of their rotation scheme, architecture and subunit composition. However, there is no detailed structural information on V‐ATPases despite the abundant biochemical and biophysical research. Here, we report a crystallographic study of V1‐ATPase, from Thermus thermophilus, which is a soluble component consisting of A, B, D and F subunits. The structure at 4.5 Å resolution reveals inter‐subunit interactions and nucleotide binding. In particular, the structure of the central stalk composed of D and F subunits was shown to be characteristic of V1‐ATPases. Small conformational changes of respective subunits and significant rearrangement of the quaternary structure observed in the three AB pairs were related to the interaction with the straight central stalk. The rotation mechanism is discussed based on a structural comparison between V1‐ATPases and F1‐ATPases. 相似文献

Signal transduction mediated by Ser/Thr phosphorylation in Mycobacterium tuberculosis has been intensively studied in the last years, as its genome harbors eleven genes coding for eukaryotic‐like Ser/Thr kinases. Here we describe the crystal structure and the autophosphorylation sites of the catalytic domain of PknA, one of two protein kinases essential for pathogen's survival. The structure of the ligand‐free kinase domain shows an auto‐inhibited conformation similar to that observed in human Tyr kinases of the Src‐family. These results reinforce the high conservation of structural hallmarks and regulation mechanisms between prokaryotic and eukaryotic protein kinases.

Decaprenylphosphoryl‐β‐D ‐ribose 2'‐epimerase (DprE1) is an essential enzyme in the biosynthesis of cell wall components and a target for development of anti‐tuberculosis drugs. We determined the crystal structure of a truncated form of DprE1 from Mycobacterium smegmatis in two crystal forms to up to 2.35 Å resolution. The structure extends from residue 75 to the C‐terminus and shares homology with FAD‐dependent oxidoreductases of the vanillyl‐alcohol oxidase family including the DprE1 homologue from M. tuberculosis. The M. smegmatis DprE1 structure reported here provides further insights into the active site geometry of this tuberculosis drug target. Proteins 2013. © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

Mutations in the protein Parkin are associated with Parkinson's disease (PD), the second most common neurodegenerative disease in men. Parkin is an E3 ubiquitin (Ub) ligase of the structurally uncharacterized RING‐in‐between‐RING(IBR)‐RING (RBR) family, which, in an HECT‐like fashion, forms a catalytic thioester intermediate with Ub. We here report the crystal structure of human Parkin spanning the Unique Parkin domain (UPD, also annotated as RING0) and RBR domains, revealing a tightly packed structure with unanticipated domain interfaces. The UPD adopts a novel elongated Zn‐binding fold, while RING2 resembles an IBR domain. Two key interactions keep Parkin in an autoinhibited conformation. A linker that connects the IBR with the RING2 over a 50‐Å distance blocks the conserved E2~Ub binding site of RING1. RING2 forms a hydrophobic interface with the UPD, burying the catalytic Cys431, which is part of a conserved catalytic triad. Opening of intra‐domain interfaces activates Parkin, and enables Ub‐based suicide probes to modify Cys431. The structure further reveals a putative phospho‐peptide docking site in the UPD, and explains many PD‐causing mutations. 相似文献

Protein degradation in the 20S proteasome is regulated in eukaryotes by the 19S ATPase complex and in archaea by the homologous PAN ATPase ring complex. Subunits of these hexameric ATPases contain on their C‐termini a conserved hydrophobic‐tyrosine‐X (HbYX) motif that docks into pockets in the 20S to stimulate the opening of a gated substrate entry channel. Here, we report the crystal structure of the archaeal 20S proteasome in complex with the C‐terminus of the archaeal proteasome regulatory ATPase, PAN. This structure defines the detailed interactions between the critical C‐terminal HbYX motif and the 20S α‐subunits and indicates that the intersubunit pocket in the 20S undergoes an induced‐fit conformational change on binding of the HbYX motif. This structure together with related mutagenesis data suggest how in eukaryotes certain proteasomal ATPases bind to specific pockets in an asymmetrical manner to regulate gate opening. 相似文献

Vacuolar‐type ATPases (V‐ATPases) exist in various cellular membranes of many organisms to regulate physiological processes by controlling the acidic environment. Here, we have determined the crystal structure of the A3B3 subcomplex of V‐ATPase at 2.8 Å resolution. The overall construction of the A3B3 subcomplex is significantly different from that of the α3β3 sub‐domain in FoF1‐ATP synthase, because of the presence of a protruding ‘bulge’ domain feature in the catalytic A subunits. The A3B3 subcomplex structure provides the first molecular insight at the catalytic and non‐catalytic interfaces, which was not possible in the structures of the separate subunits alone. Specifically, in the non‐catalytic interface, the B subunit seems to be incapable of binding ATP, which is a marked difference from the situation indicated by the structure of the FoF1‐ATP synthase. In the catalytic interface, our mutational analysis, on the basis of the A3B3 structure, has highlighted the presence of a cluster composed of key hydrophobic residues, which are essential for ATP hydrolysis by V‐ATPases. 相似文献

Tuberculosis, caused by the bacterium Mycobacterium tuberculosis, continues to be a major threat to populations worldwide. Whereas the disease is treatable, the drug regimen is arduous at best with the use of four antimicrobials over a six‐month period. There is clearly a pressing need for the development of new therapeutics. One potential target for structure‐based drug design is the enzyme RmlA, a glucose‐1‐phosphate thymidylyltransferase. This enzyme catalyzes the first step in the biosynthesis of l ‐rhamnose, which is a deoxysugar critical for the integrity of the bacterium's cell wall. Here, we report the X‐ray structures of M. tuberculosis RmlA in complex with either dTTP or dTDP‐glucose to 1.6 Å and 1.85 Å resolution, respectively. In the RmlA/dTTP complex, two magnesium ions were observed binding to the nucleotide, both ligated in octahedral coordination spheres. In the RmlA/dTDP‐glucose complex, only a single magnesium ion was observed. Importantly, for RmlA‐type enzymes with known three‐dimensional structures, not one model shows the position of the magnesium ion bound to the nucleotide‐linked sugar. As such, this investigation represents the first direct observation of the manner in which a magnesium ion is coordinated to the RmlA product and thus has important ramifications for structure‐based drug design. In the past, molecular modeling procedures have been employed to derive a three‐dimensional model of the M. tuberculosis RmlA for drug design. The X‐ray structures presented herein provide a superior molecular scaffold for such endeavors in the treatment of one of the world's deadliest diseases. 相似文献

The ecto‐nucleoside triphosphate diphosphohydrolases (NTPDases) are a family of enzymes found on the cell surface and in the lumen of certain organelles, that are major regulators of purinergic signaling. Their intracellular roles, however, have not been clearly defined. NTPDase4 (UDPase, ENTPD4) is a Golgi protein potentially involved in nucleotide recycling as part of protein glycosylation, and is also found in lysosomes, where its purpose is unknown. To further our understanding of NTPDase4 function, we determined its crystal structure. The enzyme adopts a wide open, inactive conformation. Differences in the nucleotide‐binding site relative to its homologs could account for its substrate selectivity. The putative membrane‐interacting loop of cell‐surface NTPDases is drastically altered in NTPDase4, potentially affecting its interdomain dynamics at the Golgi membrane. 相似文献

Deltarhodopsin, a new member of the microbial rhodopsin family, functions as a light‐driven proton pump. Here, we report the three‐dimensional structure of deltarhodopsin (dR3) from Haloterrigena thermotolerans at 2.7 Å resolution. A crystal belonging to space group R32 (a, b = 111.71 Å, c = 198.25 Å) was obtained by the membrane fusion method. In this crystal, dR3 forms a trimeric structure as observed for bacteriorhodopsin (bR). Structural comparison of dR with bR showed that the inner part (the proton release and uptake pathways) is highly conserved. Meanwhile, residues in the protein–protein contact region are largely altered so that the diameter of the trimeric structure at the cytoplasmic side is noticeably larger in dR3. Unlike bR, dR3 possesses a helical segment at the C‐terminal region that fills the space between the AB and EF loops. A significant difference is also seen in the FG loop, which is one residue longer in dR3. Another peculiar property of dR3 is a highly crowded distribution of positively charged residues on the cytoplasmic surface, which may be relevant to a specific interaction with some cytoplasmic component.Proteins 2013; © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. 相似文献

α‐Aminoadipate aminotransferase (AAA‐AT) catalyzes the amination of 2‐oxoadipate to α‐aminoadipate in the fourth step of the α‐aminoadipate pathway of lysine biosynthesis in fungi. The aromatic aminotransferase Aro8 has recently been identified as an AAA‐AT in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. This enzyme displays broad substrate selectivity, utilizing several amino acids and 2‐oxo acids as substrates. Here we report the 1.91Å resolution crystal structure of Aro8 and compare it to AAA‐AT LysN from Thermus thermophilus and human kynurenine aminotransferase II. Inspection of the active site of Aro8 reveals asymmetric cofactor binding with lysine‐pyridoxal‐5‐phosphate bound within the active site of one subunit in the Aro8 homodimer and pyridoxamine phosphate and a HEPES molecule bound to the other subunit. The HEPES buffer molecule binds within the substrate‐binding site of Aro8, yielding insights into the mechanism by which it recognizes multiple substrates and how this recognition differs from other AAA‐AT/kynurenine aminotransferases. 相似文献

The obligate intracellular, gram‐negative bacterium Rickettsia is the causative agent of spotted fevers and typhus in humans. Surface cell antigen (sca) proteins surround these bacteria. We recently reported the co‐localization of one of these proteins, sca4, with vinculin in cells at sites of focal adhesions and demonstrated that two vinculin binding sites directed the sca4/vinculin interaction. Here we report the 2.2 Å crystal structure of the conserved N‐terminal 38 kDa domain of sca4 from Rickettsia rickettsii. The structure reveals two subdomains. The first is an all‐helical domain that is folded in a fashion similar to the dimeric assembly chaperone for rubisco, namely RbcX. The following and highly conserved β‐strand domain lacks significant structural similarity with other known structures and to the best of our knowledge represents a new protein fold. 相似文献

α‐Dioxygenases (α‐DOX) are heme‐containing enzymes found predominantly in plants and fungi, where they generate oxylipins in response to pathogen attack. α‐DOX oxygenate a variety of 14–20 carbon fatty acids containing up to three unsaturated bonds through stereoselective removal of the pro‐R hydrogen from the α‐carbon by a tyrosyl radical generated via the oxidation of the heme moiety by hydrogen peroxide (H2O2). We determined the X‐ray crystal structures of wild type α‐DOX from Oryza sativa, the wild type enzyme in complex with H2O2, and the catalytically inactive Y379F mutant in complex with the fatty acid palmitic acid (PA). PA binds within the active site cleft of α‐DOX such that the carboxylate forms ionic interactions with His‐311 and Arg‐559. Thr‐316 aids in the positioning of carbon‐2 for hydrogen abstraction. Twenty‐five of the twenty eight contacts made between PA and residues lining the active site occur within the carboxylate and first eight carbons, indicating that interactions within this region of the substrate are responsible for governing selectivity. Comparison of the wild type and H2O2 structures provides insight into enzyme activation. The binding of H2O2 at the distal face of the heme displaces residues His‐157, Asp‐158, and Trp‐159 ~2.5 Å from their positions in the wild type structure. As a result, the Oδ2 atom of Asp‐158 interacts with the Ca atom in the calcium binding loop, the side chains of Trp‐159 and Trp‐213 reorient, and the guanidinium group of Arg‐559 is repositioned near Tyr‐379, poised to interact with the carboxylate group of the substrate. 相似文献

Arsenic‐based compounds are paradoxically both poisons and drugs. Glutathione transferase (GSTP1‐1) is a major factor in resistance to such drugs. Here we describe using crystallography, X‐ray absorption spectroscopy, mutagenesis, mass spectrometry, and kinetic studies how GSTP1‐1 recognizes the drug phenylarsine oxide (PAO). In conditions of cellular stress where glutathione (GSH) levels are low, PAO crosslinks C47 to C101 of the opposing monomer, a distance of 19.9 Å, and causes a dramatic widening of the dimer interface by approximately 10 Å. The GSH conjugate of PAO, which forms rapidly in cancerous cells, is a potent inhibitor (Ki = 90 nM) and binds as a di‐GSH complex in the active site forming part of a continuous network of interactions from one active site to the other. In summary, GSTP1‐1 can detoxify arsenic‐based drugs by sequestration at the active site and at the dimer interface, in situations where there is a plentiful supply of GSH, and at the reactive cysteines in conditions of low GSH. 相似文献

Though anhydrobiotic tardigrades (micro‐animals also known as water bears) possess many genes of secretory abundant heat soluble (SAHS) proteins unique to Tardigrada, their functions are unknown. A previous crystallographic study revealed that a SAHS protein (RvSAHS1) from one of the toughest tardigrades, Ramazzottius varieornatus, has a β‐barrel architecture similar to fatty acid binding proteins (FABPs) and two putative ligand binding sites (LBS1 and LBS2) where fatty acids can bind. However, some SAHS proteins such as RvSAHS4 have different sets of amino acid residues at LBS1 and LBS2, implying that they prefer other ligands and have different functions. Here RvSAHS4 was crystallized and analyzed under a condition similar to that for RvSAHS1. There was no electron density corresponding to a fatty acid at LBS1 of RvSAHS4, where a putative fatty acid was observed in RvSAHS1. Instead, LBS2 of RvSAHS4, which was composed of uncharged residues, captured a putative polyethylene glycol molecule. These results suggest that RvSAHS4 mainly uses LBS2 for the binding of uncharged molecules. 相似文献

The inhibitory interaction of phosphodiesterase-6 (PDE6) with its γ-subunit (Pγ) is pivotal in vertebrate phototransduction. Here, crystal structures of a chimaeric PDE5/PDE6 catalytic domain (PDE5/6cd) complexed with sildenafil or 3-isobutyl-1-methylxanthine and the Pγ-inhibitory peptide Pγ70−87 have been determined at 2.9 and 3.0 Å, respectively. These structures show the determinants and the mechanism of the PDE6 inhibition by Pγ and suggest the conformational change of Pγ on transducin activation. Two variable H- and M-loops of PDE5/6cd form a distinct interface that contributes to the Pγ-binding site. This allows the Pγ C-terminus to fit into the opening of the catalytic pocket, blocking cGMP access to the active site. Our analysis suggests that disruption of the H–M loop interface and Pγ-binding site is a molecular cause of retinal degeneration in atrd3 mice. Comparison of the two PDE5/6cd structures shows an overlap between the sildenafil and Pγ70−87-binding sites, thereby providing critical insights into the side effects of PDE5 inhibitors on vision. 相似文献

Targeting the sphingosine 1‐phosphate (S1P)/S1P receptor (S1PR) signalling axis is emerging as a promising strategy in the treatment of cancer. However, the effect of such an approach on survival of human melanoma cells remains less understood. Here, we show that the sphingosine analogue FTY720 that functionally antagonises S1PRs kills human melanoma cells through a mechanism involving the vacuolar H+‐ATPase activity. Moreover, we demonstrate that FTY720‐triggered cell death is characterized by features of necrosis and is not dependent on receptor‐interacting protein kinase 1 or lysosome cathepsins, nor was it associated with the activation of protein phosphatase 2A. Instead, it is mediated by increased production of reactive oxygen species and is antagonized by activation of autophagy. Collectively, these results suggest that FTY720 and its analogues are promising candidates for further development as new therapeutic agents in the treatment of melanoma. 相似文献

The inhibition of axon regeneration upon mechanical injury is dependent on interactions between Nogo receptors (NgRs) and their myelin-derived ligands. NgRs are composed of a leucine-rich repeat (LRR) region, thought to be structurally similar among the different isoforms of the receptor, and a divergent "stalk" region. It has been shown by others that the LRR and stalk regions of NgR1 and NgR2 have distinct roles in conferring binding affinity to the myelin associated glycoprotein (MAG) in vivo. Here, we show that purified recombinant full length NgR1 and NgR2 maintain significantly higher binding affinity for purified MAG as compared to the isolated LRR region of either NgR1 or NgR2. We also present the crystal structure of the LRR and part of the stalk regions of NgR2 and compare it to the previously reported NgR1 structure with respect to the distinct signaling properties of the two receptor isoforms. 相似文献
