Structure of Human Phosphatidylcholine Transfer Protein in Complex with Palmitoyl-Linoleoyl Phosphatidylcholine (Seleno-Met Protein)
Overview
Phosphatidylcholines (PtdChos) comprise the most common phospholipid class, in eukaryotic cells. In mammalian cells, these insoluble molecules are, transferred between membranes by a highly specific phosphatidylcholine, transfer protein (PC-TP) belonging to the steroidogenic acute regulatory, protein related transfer (START) domain superfamily of hydrophobic, ligand-binding proteins. The crystal structures of human PC-TP in complex, with dilinoleoyl-PtdCho or palmitoyl-linoleoyl-PtdCho reveal that a single, well-ordered PtdCho molecule occupies a centrally located tunnel. The, positively charged choline headgroup of the lipid engages in cation-pi, interactions within a cage formed by the faces of three aromatic residues., These binding determinants and those for the phosphoryl group may be, exposed to the lipid headgroup at the membrane-water interface by a, conformational change involving the amphipathic C-terminal helix and an, Omega-loop. The structures presented here provide a basis for, rationalizing the specificity of PC-TP for PtdCho and may identify common, features used by START proteins to bind their hydrophobic ligands.
