Cryo-EM structure of ESCRT-III helical Vps24 filaments
Structural highlights
Function[VPS24_YEAST] Class E VPS protein implicated in concentration and sorting of cargo proteins of the multivesicular body (MVB) for incorporation into intralumenal vesicles. The lumenal sequestrated membrane proteins will be targeted into the vacuole after fusion of the endosome with the vacuole. Acts a component of the ESCRT-III complex, which appears to be critical for late steps in MVB sorting, such as membrane invagination and final cargo sorting and recruitment oflate-acting components of the sorting machinery. The MVB pathway requires the sequential function of ESCRT-O, -I,-II and -III complex assemblies. The DID4/VPS2-VPS24 subcomplex is required for the VPS4-dependent dissociation of ESCRT-III.[1] [2] [3] Publication Abstract from PubMedESCRT-III proteins mediate a range of cellular membrane remodeling activities such as multivesicular body biogenesis, cytokinesis, and viral release. Critical to these processes is the assembly of ESCRT-III subunits into polymeric structures. In this study, we determined the cryo-EM structure of a helical assembly of Saccharomyces cerevisiae Vps24 at 3.2-A resolution and found that Vps24 adopts an elongated open conformation. Vps24 forms a domain-swapped dimer extended into protofilaments that associate into a double-stranded apolar filament. We demonstrate that, upon binding negatively charged lipids, Vps24 homopolymer filaments undergo partial disassembly into shorter filament fragments and oligomers. Upon the addition of Vps24, Vps2, and Snf7, liposomes are deformed into neck and tubular structures by an ESCRT-III heteropolymer coat. The filamentous Vps24 homopolymer assembly structure and interaction studies reveal how Vps24 could introduce unique geometric properties to mixed-type ESCRT-III heteropolymers and contribute to the process of membrane scission events.
