Crystal structure of gamma-butyrolactone receptor (ArpA like protein)
Overview
The gamma-butyrolactone-type autoregulator/receptor systems in the, Gram-positive bacterial genus Streptomyces regulate morphological, differentiation or antibiotic production, or both. The autoregulator, receptors act as DNA-binding proteins, and on binding their cognate, ligands (gamma-butyrolactones) they are released from the DNA, thus, serving as repressors. The crystal structure of CprB in Streptomyces, coelicolor A3(2), a homologue of the A-factor-receptor protein, ArpA, in, Streptomyces griseus, was determined. The overall structure of CprB shows, that the gamma-butyrolactone receptors belong to the TetR family. CprB is, composed of two domains, a DNA-binding domain and a regulatory domain. The, regulatory domain contains a hydrophobic cavity, which probably serves as, a ligand-binding pocket. On the basis of the crystal structure of CprB and, on the analogy of the characteristics of ligand-TetR binding, the binding, of gamma-butyrolactones to the regulatory domain of the receptors is, supposed to induce the relocation of the DNA-binding domain through, conformational changes of residues located between the ligand-binding site, and the DNA-binding domain, which would result in the dissociation of the, receptors from their target DNA.
