VPS36 N-TERMINAL PH DOMAIN

Overview

ESCRT complexes form the main machinery driving protein sorting from, endosomes to lysosomes. Currently, the picture regarding assembly of, ESCRTs on endosomes is incomplete. The structure of the conserved, heterotrimeric ESCRT-I core presented here shows a fan-like arrangement of, three helical hairpins, each corresponding to a different subunit., Vps23/Tsg101 is the central hairpin sandwiched between the other subunits, explaining the critical role of its "steadiness box" in the stability of, ESCRT-I. We show that yeast ESCRT-I links directly to ESCRT-II, through a, tight interaction of Vps28 (ESCRT-I) with the yeast-specific zinc-finger, insertion within the GLUE domain of Vps36 (ESCRT-II). The crystal, structure of the GLUE domain missing this insertion reveals it is a split, PH ... [(full description)]
