Effects of ATP binding on the conformational flexibility of proNGF


ABSTRACT: Nerve growth factor (NGF) is involved in the maintenance and growth of specific neuronal populations whereas its precursor, proNGF, shows opposite properties, like being involved in apoptosis. NGF/proNGF imbalance is linked to neurodegeneration. Here, we show that ATP binds to proNGF inducing an overall proNGF shape change, throughout a local conformational rearrangement of the flexible pro-peptide domain. This suggests a functional role for ATP in the modulation of proNGF/NGF physiological homeostasis.

Nerve growth factor (NGF), the prototypical neurotrophic factor, is involved in the maintenance and growth of specific neuronal populations, whereas its precursor, proNGF, is involved in neuronal apoptosis. Binding of NGF or proNGF to TrkA, p75<sup>NTR</sup> , and VP10p receptors triggers complex intracellular signaling pathways that can be modulated by endogenous small-molecule ligands. Here, we show by isothermal titration calorimetry and NMR that ATP binds to the intrinsically disordered pro-  ...[more]
