Function

[SLM1_YEAST] Together with SLM2, effector of the TORC2- and calcineurin-signaling pathways. Phosphorylated and activated by TORC2 under favorable growth conditions. Mediates actin polarization via inhibition of calcineurin-dependent transcription. Upon nutrient limitation or environmental stress, gets dephosphorylated by calcineurin. Dephosphorylation inhibits its interaction with TORC2, thereby antagonizing TORC2 signaling and mediating calcineurin-dependent actin depolarization. Also functions in heat-induced, calcineurin-mediated uracil permease (FUR4) endocytosis.^[1] ^[2] ^[3] ^[4]

Publication Abstract from PubMed

BACKGROUND: Pleckstrin homology (PH) domains are common membrane-targeting modules and their best characterized ligands are a set of important signaling lipids that include phosphatidylinositol phosphates (PtdInsPs). PH domains recognize PtdInsPs through two distinct mechanisms that use different binding pockets on opposite sides of the beta-strands 1 and 2: i) a canonical binding site delimited by the beta1-beta2 and beta3-beta4loops and ii) a non-canonical binding site bordered by the beta1-beta2 and beta5-beta6loops. The PH domain-containing protein Slm1 from budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is required for actin cytoskeleton polarization and cell growth. We recently reported that this PH domain binds PtdInsPs and phosphorylated sphingolipids in a cooperative manner. PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: To study the structural basis for the Slm1-PH domain (Slm1-PH) specificity, we co-crystallized this domain with different soluble compounds that have structures analogous to anionic lipid head groups of reported Slm1 ligands: inositol 4-phosphate, which mimics phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate (PtdIns(4)P), and phosphoserine as a surrogate for dihydrosphingosine 1-phosphate (DHS1-P). We found electron densities for the ligands within the so-called non-canonical binding site. An additional positively charged surface that contacts a phosphate group was identified next to the canonical binding site. CONCLUSIONS: Our results suggest that Slm1-PH utilizes a non-canonical binding site to bind PtdInsPs, similar to that described for the PH domains of beta-spectrin, Tiam1 and ArhGAP9. Additionally, Slm1-PH may have retained an active canonical site. We propose that the presence of both a canonical and a non-canonical binding pocket in Slm1-PH may account for the cooperative binding to PtdInsPs and DHS-1P.
