Crystal structure of human SCO1 complexed with nickel.
Contents |
Overview
Human SCO1 and SCO2 are copper-binding proteins involved in the assembly, of mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase (COX). We have determined the, crystal structure of the conserved, intermembrane space core portion of, apo-hSCO1 to 2.8 A. It is similar to redox active proteins, including, thioredoxins (Trx) and peroxiredoxins (Prx), with putative copper-binding, ligands located at the same positions as the conserved catalytic residues, in Trx and Prx. SCO1 does not have disulfide isomerization or peroxidase, activity, but both hSCO1 and a sco1 null in yeast show extreme sensitivity, to hydrogen peroxide. Of the six missense mutations in SCO1 and SCO2, associated with fatal mitochondrial disorders, one lies in a highly, conserved exposed surface away from the copper-binding region, suggesting, that this region is involved in protein-protein interactions. These data, suggests that SCO functions not as a COX copper chaperone, but rather as a, mitochondrial redox signaling molecule.
