ABC-transporter BtuCD in complex with its periplasmic binding protein BtuF

Overview

BtuCD is an adenosine triphosphate-binding cassette (ABC) transporter that, translocates vitamin B12 from the periplasmic binding protein BtuF into, the cytoplasm of Escherichia coli. The 2.6 angstrom crystal structure of a, complex BtuCD-F reveals substantial conformational changes as compared, with the previously reported structures of BtuCD and BtuF. The lobes of, BtuF are spread apart, and B12 is displaced from the binding pocket. The, transmembrane BtuC subunits reveal two distinct conformations, and the, translocation pathway is closed to both sides of the membrane. Electron, paramagnetic resonance spectra of spin-labeled cysteine mutants, reconstituted in proteoliposomes are consistent with the conformation of, BtuCD-F that was observed in the crystal structure. A comparison with, BtuCD and the homologous HI1470/71 protein suggests that the structure of, BtuCD-F may reflect a posttranslocation intermediate.
