Solution structure of the Cu(I) form of the sixth soluble domain of Menkes protein
Contents |
Overview
Menkes disease is a fatal disease that can be induced by various mutations, in the ATP7A gene, leading to unpaired uptake of dietary copper. The ATP7A, gene encodes a copper(I)-translocating ATPase. Here the disease-causing, A629P mutation, which occurs in the last of the six copper(I)-binding, soluble domains of the ATPase (hereafter MNK6), was investigated. To, understand why this apparently minor amino acid replacement is pathogenic, the solution structures and dynamics on various time-scales of wild-type, and A629P-MNK6 were determined both in the apo- and copper(I)-loaded, forms. The interaction in vitro with the physiological ATP7A, copper(I)-donor (HAH1) was additionally studied. The A629P mutation makes, the protein beta-sheet more solvent accessible, possibly resulting in an, enhanced susceptibility of ATP7A to proteolytic cleavage and/or in reduced, capability of copper(I)-translocation. A small reduction of the affinity, for copper(I) is also observed. Both effects could concur to, pathogenicity.
