COMPLEX OF ENZYME IIAMTL AND THE HISTIDINE-CONTAINING PHOSPHOCARRIER PROTEIN HPR FROM ESCHERICHIA COLI NMR, RESTRAINED REGULARIZED MEAN STRUCTURE

Overview

The solution structure of the complex between the cytoplasmic A domain, (IIA(Mtl)) of the mannitol transporter II(Mannitol) and the, histidine-containing phosphocarrier protein (HPr) of the Escherichia coli, phosphotransferase system has been solved by NMR, including the use of, conjoined rigid body/torsion angle dynamics, and residual dipolar, couplings, coupled with cross-validation, to permit accurate orientation, of the two proteins. A convex surface on HPr, formed by helices 1 and 2, interacts with a complementary concave depression on the surface of, IIA(Mtl) formed by helix 3, portions of helices 2 and 4, and beta-strands, 2 and 3. The majority of intermolecular contacts are hydrophobic, with a, small number of electrostatic interactions at the periphery of the, interface. The active site histidines, His-15 of HPr and His-65 of, IIA(Mtl), are in close spatial proximity, and a pentacoordinate phosphoryl, transition state can be readily accommodated with no change in, protein-protein orientation and only minimal perturbations of the backbone, immediately adjacent to the histidines. Comparison with two previously, solved structures of complexes of HPr with partner proteins of the, phosphotransferase system, the N-terminal domain of enzyme I (EIN) and, enzyme IIA(Glucose) (IIA(Glc)), reveals a number of common features, despite the fact that EIN, IIA(Glc), and IIA(Mtl) bear no structural, resemblance to one another. Thus, entirely different underlying structural, elements can form binding surfaces for HPr that are similar in terms of, both shape and residue composition. These structural comparisons, illustrate the roles of surface and residue complementarity, redundancy, incremental build-up of specificity and conformational side chain, plasticity in the formation of transient specific protein-protein, complexes in signal transduction pathways.
