Differential global structural changes in the core particle of yeast and mouse proteasome induced by ligand binding.

ABSTRACT: Two clusters of configurations of the main proteolytic subunit β5 were identified by principal component analysis of crystal structures of the yeast proteasome core particle (yCP). The apo-cluster encompasses unliganded species and complexes with nonpeptidic ligands, and the pep-cluster comprises complexes with peptidic ligands. The murine constitutive CP structures conform to the yeast system, with the apo-form settled in the apo-cluster and the PR-957 (a peptidic ligand) complex in the pep-cluster. In striking contrast, the murine immune CP classifies into the pep-cluster in both the apo and the PR-957-liganded species. The two clusters differ essentially by multiple small structural changes and a domain motion enabling enclosure of the peptidic ligand and formation of specific hydrogen
