The FpgNei Protein Superfamily
Background on DNA Repair
The genome of any living organisms is being continuously affected by exogenous and endogenous agents, such as ultraviolet light, ionizing radiation, different chemicals and the cell's own metabolites (such as reactive oxygen). Therefore, different systems have evolved to repair these damages, with some of these systems shared throughout all lifeforms. Therefore, the proper functioning of DNA repair is critical for survival. There are six pathways of DNA repair (reviewed in Friedberg et al), and one of them is base-excision repair. The latter's distinguishing feature is that it removes lesions as single bases, as opposed to dNMPs or short oligonucleotides like other systems. [1]
Base excision repair's signature enzyme are the DNA glycosylases. These enzymes work by recognizing and removing a single damaged base from DNA. They are called DNA glycosylases because they hydrolize the N-glycosidic bond of the damaged deoxynucleoside. The subsequent steps of the pathway (strand incision, gap-filling and ligation) are done by other enzymes. [2][3]
Background on Fpg Nei
Overall Function and Structure
| (For FPG, the structure used was 1r2y and for Nei 1k3w) Members of this family have . DNA binds in a cleft between the domains. If EcoNei (structure 1k3w, , and (Thymine Glycol in the case of Nei). [4]. Some of these amino acids are stabilized by a (although a zincless finger motif is present in some of these subfamilies [5]). Other key components are the intercalation loop (different between and ), a group of amino acids that insert into the vacated spot left by the "flipped" base; and amino acids which contact the opposite strand and confer opposite-base specificity. Note that the last two elements discussed, the zinc vs. zincless finger, and the two kinds of intercalation loops, are examples of coevolving functional clusters, groups of amino acids that perform a function, and that might be unnecessary or compensated for within the other subfamilies. We developed a novel method for identifying these clusters and have applied it to bring insight into the structure, function and evolution FpgNei family.
Several authors have suggested mechanisms for these enzymes, please see references for more information [6][7][8][9]. Homologous structures have been solved, including Fpg protein from Lactococcus Lactis (1pjj)[10], Bacillus Stereothermophilus (1r2y)[11], Thermos Thermophilus (1ee8)[12] and Escherichia Coli(1k82)[13] and Nei from Escherichia Coli (1k3w)[14]. The overall structure is similar, and some of the damages include 8-oxoguanine and fapyG (1xc8)[15]. |

Latent Structural Characters (LSCs)
We define a functional cluster as neighboring amino acids which have changed in rate or constraint for a given clade or set of clades. For example, the cysteines in the zinc finger are all conserved in the fpg1, fpg2, actinobacterial and eukaryotic clades, but have a higher rate in plants and neil1, as the latter have a zinc-less finger (see here for more information). We developed a novel method to find these groups of amino acids, discovering previously unknown groups of amino acids which be functionally important in some of these subfamilies.
The table below has some of our main findings, there are two variants for each functional cluster in case that for one functional cluster there is a compensating cluster in the other subfamilies. If you click on one of them you will see the result in the structure, and you can go to the explanation and the sequence distribution below (we have found it helpful to open a separate screen to go along the structure).

LSC1: Stability of perfectly conserved Asn168 ( and ). Asn174, along with two other amino acids have an effect in the orientation and kinking of the DNA [16], keeping the proper arrangement between the zinc finger and the H2TH [17]. In 4 of the 9 clades (Fpg1, Fpg2 and Plants and Fungi) Asn174 is supported by the amino acid corresponding to Lys160, which in turn hydrogen bonds with Leu249 and Ser250. In the other clades (Actinobacteria 1 and 2, Proteacteria and all vertebrate subfamilies), this role is played by Arg171, which originates on a different helix. The Zinc Finger is shaped differently in the absence of DNA, and there is a hydrogen bond between one of the beta-sheets and the arginine. Site directed mutagenesis has been performed on both Lys155 (corresponding lysine in E. coli Fpg) and as well as Arg171, with the first one being associated with premature dissociation and loss of activity and the latter with significant loss of activity [18][19].
|
LSC2: Stability of catalytic helix( and ) The triad Leu4, Glu8 and Arg57 interact and provide stability to helixA, which has the catalytic residue Pro2,Glu3 and Glu6 [20][21]. This triad is present in the same four clades as above (Fpg1, Fpg2 and Plants and Fungi) but absent in the remaining clades and it is not clear how the same stability is provided. Leu211 also has a hydrophobic interaction with Leu4. The role of Gly4 is not known
|
LSC3: Stability of intercalation loopImage:IntercalationLoopSupport.jpg This structure provides stability for the amino acids that insert into the space vacated by the damaged base |
LSC4: Stability of key Gly59 and Lys60Gly59 and Lys60 are important in the activity of MutM. We hypothesize that Glu137 is very important to maintain its stability, this amino acid is compensated by Asn172 in Neil1 </ref> |
LSC5: Intercalation LoopImage:IntercalationLoop.jpg The residue in positions 77 and 78 suggest a possible intercalation loop The residue E2 and E6 have been mutated, with the first one inactivating the protein and the second one having no major effect [22]. |
LSC6: Zinc/zincless fingerThe Zinc finger (of the β/β-antiparallel CCCC type) serves to hold the absolutely conserved Arg264 residue [23], which binds to the phosphate of the damaged base and is crucial for function (mutation of this site results in failed cleavage of the damaged base [24]). Site directed mutagenesis experiments have been performed on all four cysteines, leading to loss of activity [25][26], emphasizing the importance of this LSC. In Neil1, there is no Zinc but there is an equivalent structure: a "zincless finger" [27]. Both the plants and mimivirus have a zincless finger as well [28][29], although it is not clear if these are all homologous. |
LSC7: Recognition ComplexThis complex is key in recognizing a damaged guanine[30] |
LSC8: DNA binding Tyrosine |
Zinc/zincless finger
Evolution
The FpgNei evolution has not been easy to resolve [31], especially in the deeper branches. Assuming that functional clusters evolve more slowly than individual residues, we can use this as phylogenetic characters to 1) draw the most parsimonious evolution of the superfamily as dictated by these functional clusters 2) examine how these clusters have evolved and how this might have influenced the evolution of FpgNei.
