Structure of the ATPase subunit CysA of the putative sulfate ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporter from Alicyclobacillus acidocaldarius
Overview
CysA, the ATPase subunit of a putative sulfate ATP-binding cassette, transport system of the gram-positive thermoacidophilic bacterium, Alicyclobacillus acidocaldarius, was structurally characterized at a, resolution of 2.0 Angstroms in the absence of nucleotides. In line with, previous findings on ABC-ATPases the structures of the two monomers, (called CysA-1 and CysA-2) in the asymmetric unit differ substantially in, the arrangement of their individual (sub)domains. CysA-2 was found as a, physiological dimer composed of two crystallographically related monomers, that are arranged in an open state. Interestingly, while the regulatory, domain of CysA-2 packs against its opposing domain that of CysA-1, undergoes a conformational change and, in the dimer, would interfere with, the opposing monomer thereby preventing solute translocation. Whether this, conformational state is used for regulatory purposes will be discussed.
