The structural basis for the self-inhibition of DNA binding by apo-σ70 - CLMS data

ABSTRACT: Performing crosslinking mass spectrometry and intergrative structural modelling to elucidate, for the first time, structure models of apo-σ70. Conclusively, we provide structural information to show that most of the DNA-binding capabilities of apo-σ70 are conformationally-inhibited and can be activated mostly in the context of transcription. CL-MS performed in E. coli detects crosslinks unique to the compact fold of apo-σ70 occurring at stationary growth phase.

Integrative structure models of the α-Synuclein dimer conformations

Project description:α-Synuclein is an intrinsically disordered protein known for its contributions to functions in neurons but mostly in its contributions to the development of Parkinson's disease via formation of self-associated forms, fibrils and Lewy bodies. Among the multiple targets it interacts with and gains a folded structure within the bound state, are homo-oligomers. Logically, the shortest homo-oligomer a protein can form is a dimer. However, until today the existence of the α-Synuclein dimer has been a subject of much debate. Using an array of measurements, we show that in vitro α-Synuclein exhibits primarily a monomer-dimer equilibrium within a concentration range of hundreds of nanomolars and up to a few micromolars. Furthermore, we performed hetero-isotopic cross-linking mass spectrometry experiments, from which we gained spatial information on the dimer that was then used in constructing restraints for discrete molecular dynamics simulations. This allowed us to retrieve integrative structure models of α-Synuclein dimer structural subpopulations, having different degrees of compactness and binding energies. Interestingly, one of dimers structures is compact, stable, abundant and exhibits partially-exposed β-sheet structures in the N-terminal and non-amyloid component segments. This compact dimer form is also the only one that exhibits interaction distances between hydroxyl groups of tyrosine 39 in the two subunits. We suggest that the high abundance compact dimer form serves as an important α-Synuclein dimeric species and propose different hypotheses as to its function, whether on pathway to aggregation or not

Definition of functionally and structurally distinct repressive states in the nuclear receptor PPARγ

Project description:The repressive states of nuclear receptors (i.e., apo or bound to antagonists or inverse agonists) are poorly defined, despite the fact that nuclear receptors are a major drug target. Most ligand bound structures of nuclear receptors, including peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ (PPARγ), are similar to the apo structure. Here we use NMR, accelerated molecular dynamics and hydrogen-deuterium exchange mass spectrometry to define the PPARγ structural ensemble. We find that the helix 3 charge clamp positioning varies widely in apo and is stabilized by efficacious ligand binding. We also reveal a previously undescribed mechanism for inverse agonism involving an omega loop to helix switch which induces disruption of a tripartite salt-bridge network. We demonstrate that ligand binding can induce multiple structurally distinct repressive states. One state recruits peptides from two different corepressors, while another recruits just one, providing structural evidence of ligand bias in a nuclear receptor.

Aurora B kinase disrupts the extended conformation of lattice-bound Kinesin-13 MCAK

Project description:We reveal that MCAK has a compact conformation in solution using cross-linking and electron microscopy. When MCAK is bound to the microtubule ends, it adopts an extended conformation with the N terminus and neck region of MCAK interacting with the microtubule. Also Aurora Bphosphorylation does not alter MCAK conformation in solution. Aurora B interferes with the extended conformation of MCAK on microtubules to decrease the affinity of MCAK for microtubules and reduces its depolymerase activity in a graded fashion.

Structural and Functional Characterization of G Protein-Coupled Receptors with Deep Mutational Scanning

Project description:In humans, the 813 G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are responsible for transducing diverse chemical stimuli to alter cell state, and are the largest class of drug targets. Their myriad structural conformations and various modes of signaling make it challenging to understand their structure and function. Here we developed a platform to characterize large libraries of GPCR variants in human cell lines with a barcoded transcriptional reporter of G-protein signal transduction. We tested 7,800 of 7,828 possible single amino acid substitutions to the beta-2 adrenergic receptor (β2AR) at four concentrations of the agonist isoproterenol. We identified residues specifically important for β2AR signaling, mutations in the human population that are potentially loss of function, and residues that modulate basal activity. Using unsupervised learning, we resolve residues critical for signaling, including all major structural motifs and molecular interfaces. We also find a previously uncharacterized structural latch spanning the first two extracellular loops that is highly conserved across Class A GPCRs and is conformationally rigid in both the inactive and active states of the receptor. More broadly, by linking deep mutational scanning with engineered transcriptional reporters, we establish a generalizable method for exploring pharmacogenomics, structure and function across broad classes of drug receptors.

Structure of the metastatic factor P-Rex1 reveals a two-layered autoinhibitory mechanism

Project description:Rho GTPases regulate actin dynamics and cell motility, and their hyperactivation drives cancer metastasis1. P-Rex (PI(3,4,5)P3-dependent Rac Exchanger) guanine nucleotide exchange factors (GEFs) are potent on-switches for Rho GTPase signalling and are frequently dysregulated in metastatic cancer2. P-Rex GEFs are autoinhibited under basal conditions and activated synergistically by binding to Gβγ and PI(3,4,5)P33. However, the molecular basis for P-Rex autoinhibition remains unknown. Here we utilise X-ray crystallography, cryo-EM and cross-linking mass spectrometry to determine the autoinhibited P-Rex1 structure. P-Rex1 forms a characteristic bipartite structure with its seven domains split into distinct N- and C-terminal modules. The two modules are connected by a previously unrecognised C-terminal four-helix bundle that binds the N-terminal Pleckstrin homology (PH) domain. In the N-terminal module, the catalytic surface of the Dbl homology (DH) domain is occluded by the compact arrangement of the PH and DEP1 domains. Structural analysis of the DH-PH-DEP1 array reveals that a remarkable conformational transition, centred on a 126° opening of a hinge helix reminiscent of calmodulin dynamics, leads to the release of DH domain autoinhibition. Furthermore, given the off-axis position of the Gβγ and PI(3,4,5)P3 binding sites, our data suggest that concurrent Gβγ and PI(3,4,5)P3 requires counter-rotation of the two halves of P-Rex1 by 90°, leading to the uncoupling of the PH domain from the four-helic¬¬al bundle, and release of the autoinhibited DH domain to drive Rho GTPase signalling.

Lp(a) and 17K recombinant apo(a) treatment of THP-1 macrophages

Project description:Lp(a) and its distinguishing apolipoprotein constituent apo(a) have been shown to elicit proinflammatory responses from monocytes and macrophages. To obtain a global picture of the effect of Lp(a) and apo(a) on the transcriptome of these cells, we treated THP-1 macrophages with 250 nM Lp(a) or apo(a) for 6 hours, harvested RNA from the cells, and then performed RNA-seq using an Illumina NextSeq instrument. Analysis of the data using GO and KEGG strategies revealed a series of proinflammatory genes upregulated by apo(a) and even more dramatically by Lp(a).

The augmin complex architecture reveals structural insights into microtubule branching

Project description:In mitosis, the augmin complex binds to spindle microtubules to recruit the γ-tubulin ring complex (γ-TuRC), the principal microtubule nucleator, for the formation of branched microtubules. Our understanding of augmin-mediated microtubule branching is strongly hampered by the lack of structural information on the augmin complex. Here we elucidate the molecular architecture and define the conformational plasticity of the augmin complex using an integrative structural biology approach. The elongated structure of the augmin complex is characterised by extensive coiled-coil segments and comprises two structural elements with distinct but complementary functions in γ-TuRC and microtubule binding, linked by a flexible hinge. The augmin complex is recruited to microtubules via a composite microtubule binding site comprising a positively charged unordered extension and two Calponin homology domains. Our study provides the structural basis for augmin function in branched microtubule formation, decisively fostering our understanding of spindle formation in mitosis.
