CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF GGA3 GAE DOMAIN IN COMPLEX WITH RABAPTIN-5 PEPTIDE
Overview
Adaptor proteins load transmembrane protein cargo into transport vesicles, and serve as nexuses for the formation of large multiprotein complexes on, the nascent vesicles. The gamma-adaptin ear (GAE) domains of the AP-1, adaptor protein complex and the GGA adaptor proteins recruit accessory, proteins to these multiprotein complexes by binding to a hydrophobic, motif. We determined the structure of the GAE domain of human GGA3 in, complex with a peptide based on the DFGPLV sequence of the accessory, protein Rabaptin-5 and refined it at a resolution of 2.2 A. The leucine, and valine residues of the peptide are partly buried in two contiguous, shallow, hydrophobic depressions. The anchoring phenylalanine is buried in, a deep pocket formed by the aliphatic portions of two conserved arginine, residues, along with an alanine and a proline, illustrating the unusual, function of a cluster of basic residues in binding a hydrophobic motif.
