STRUCTURE OF THE RGS-LIKE DOMAIN FROM PDZ-RHOGEF
Overview
BACKGROUND: The multidomain PDZ-RhoGEF is one of many known guanine nucleotide exchange factors that upregulate Rho GTPases. PDZ-RhoGEF and related family members play a critical role in a molecular signaling pathway from heterotrimeric G protein-coupled receptors to Rho proteins. A approximately 200 residue RGS-like (RGSL) domain in PDZ-RhoGEF and its homologs is responsible for the direct association with Galpha12/13 proteins. To better understand structure-function relationships, we initiated crystallographic studies of the RGSL domain from human PDZ-RhoGEF. RESULTS: A recombinant construct of the RGSL domain was expressed in Escherichia coli and purified, but it did not crystallize. Alternative constructs were designed based on a novel strategy of targeting lysine and glutamic acid residues for mutagenesis to alanine. A triple-point mutant functionally identical to the wild-type protein was crystallized, and its structure was determined by the MAD method using Se-methionine (Se-Met) incorporation. A molecular model of the RGSL domain was refined at 2.2 A resolution, revealing an all-helical tertiary fold with the mutations located at intermolecular lattice contacts. CONCLUSIONS: The first nine helices adopt a fold similar to that observed for RGS proteins, although the sequence identity with other such known structures is below 20%. The last three helices are an integral extension of the RGS fold, packing tightly against helices 3 and 4 with multiple hydrophobic interactions. Comparison with RGS proteins suggests features that are likely relevant for interaction with G proteins. Finally, we conclude that the strategy used to produce crystals was beneficial and might be applicable to other proteins resistant to crystallization.
