Neurofibromin is the protein product of the tumor suppressor gene NF1, alterations of which are responsible for the pathogenesis of the common disorder Neurofibromatosis type I (NF1). The only well-characterized function of neurofibromin is its RasGAP activity, contained in the central GAP related domain (GRD). By solving the crystal structure of a 31 kDa fragment at the C-terminal end of the GRD we have recently identified a novel bipartite lipid-binding module composed of a Sec14 homologous and a previously undetected pleckstrin homology (PH)-like domain. Using lipid exchange assays along with mass spectrometry we show here that the Sec14-like portion binds to 1-(3-sn-phosphatidyl)-sn-glycerol (PtdGro), (3-sn-phosphatidyl)-ethanolamine (PtdEtn) and -choline (PtdCho) and to a minor extent to (3-sn-phosphatidyl)-l-serine (PtdSer) and 1-(3-sn-phosphatidyl)-d-myo-inositol (PtdIns). Phosphorylated PtdIns (PtdInsPs) are not detected as binders in the mass spectrometry assay, but their soluble inositol-phosphate headgroups and related compounds can inhibit the lipid exchange reaction. We also present here the crystal structure of this module with the Sec14 portion bound to a cellular glycerophospholipid ligand. Our structure has model character for the substrate-bound form of yeast Sec14p, of which only detergent bound structures are available so far. To assess potential regulation of the lipid exchange reaction in detail, we present a novel strategy using nanospray mass spectrometry. Ion intensities of initial phospholipids and exchanged deuterated analogues bound by the protein module allow the quantitative analysis of differences in the exchange activity under various conditions. 相似文献

"Osmotic Motors"--the best-documented explanation for plant leaf movements--frequently reside in specialized motor leaf organs, pulvini. The movements result from dissimilar volume and turgor changes in two oppositely positioned parts of the pulvinus. This Osmotic Motor is powered by a plasma membrane proton ATPase, which drives KCl fluxes and, consequently, water, across the pulvinus into swelling cells and out of shrinking cells. Light signals and signals from the endogenous biological clock converge on the channels through which these fluxes occur. These channels and their regulatory pathways in the pulvinus are the topic of this review. 相似文献

Inhibitor of growth 2 (ING2) gene encodes a candidate tumor suppressor and is frequently reduced in many tumors. However, the mechanisms underlying the regulation of ING2, in particular its protein stability, are still unclear. Here we show that the homologous to E6AP carboxyl terminus (HECT)-type ubiquitin ligase Smad ubiquitination regulatory factor 1 (Smurf1) interacts with and targets ING2 for poly-ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation. Intriguingly, the ING2 binding domain in Smurf1 was mapped to the catalytic HECT domain. Furthermore, the C-terminal PHD domain of ING2 was required for Smurf1-mediated degradation. This study provided the first evidence that the stability of ING2 could be regulated by ubiquitin-mediated degradation.
