X-ray crystal structure of Sap97 PDZ3 bound to the C-terminal peptide of HPV18 E6
Overview
Human papillomavirus (HPV) E6 oncoprotein targets certain tumor, suppressors such as MAGI-1 and SAP97/hDlg for degradation. A short peptide, at the C-terminus of E6 interacts specifically with the PDZ domains of, these tumor suppressors, which is a property unique to high-risk HPVs that, are associated with cervical cancer. The detailed recognition mechanisms, between HPV-E6 and PDZ proteins are unclear. To understand the specific, binding of cellular PDZ substrates by HPV-E6, we have solved the crystal, structures of the complexes containing a peptide from HPV18 E6 bound to, three PDZ domains from MAGI-1 and SAP97/Dlg. The complex crystal, structures reveal novel features of PDZ-peptide recognition that explain, why high-risk HPV-E6 can specifically target these cellular tumor, suppressors for destruction. Moreover, a new peptide-binding loop on these, PDZs is identified as interacting with the E6 peptide. Furthermore, we, have identified an arginine residue, unique to high-risk HPV E6 but, outside the canonical core PDZ recognition motif, that plays an important, role in the binding of the PDZs of both MAGI-I and SAP97/Dlg, mutation of, which abolishes E6's ability to degrade the two proteins. Finally, we have, identified a dimer form of the MAGI-1 PDZ1 in the co-crystal structure, with E6 peptide, which may have functional relevance for MAGI-1 activity., In addition to its novel insights into the biochemistry of PDZ, interactions, this study is important for understanding HPV induced, oncogenesis; this could provide a basis for developing anti-viral and, anti-cancer compounds.
