Crystal structure of the full length ferric pyoverdine outer membrane receptor FpvA of Pseudomonas aeruginosa in its apo form
Overview
Transport of molecules larger than 600 Da across the outer membrane involves TonB-dependent receptors and TonB-ExbB-ExbD of the inner membrane. The transport is energy consuming, and involves direct interactions between a short N-terminal sequence of receptor, called the TonB box, and TonB. We solved the structure of the ferric pyoverdine (Pvd-Fe) outer membrane receptor FpvA from Pseudomonas aeruginosa in its apo form. Structure analyses show that residues of the TonB box are in a beta strand which interacts through a mixed four-stranded beta sheet with the periplasmic signaling domain involved in interactions with an inner membrane sigma regulator. In this conformation, the TonB box cannot form a four-stranded beta sheet with TonB. The FhuA-TonB or BtuB-TonB structures show that the TonB-FpvA interactions require a conformational change which involves a beta strand lock-exchange mechanism. This mechanism is compatible with movements of the periplasmic domain deduced from crystallographic analyses of FpvA, FpvA-Pvd, and FpvA-Pvd-Fe.
