HIGH RESOLUTION CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF THE HUMAN PDK1 CATALYTIC DOMAIN

Overview

3-phosphoinositide dependent protein kinase-1 (PDK1) plays a key role in, regulating signalling pathways by activating AGC kinases such as PKB/Akt, and S6K. Here we describe the 2.0 A crystal structure of the PDK1 kinase, domain in complex with ATP. The structure defines the hydrophobic pocket, termed the "PIF-pocket", which plays a key role in mediating the, interaction and phosphorylation of certain substrates such as S6K1., Phosphorylation of S6K1 at its C-terminal PIF-pocket-interacting motif, promotes the binding of S6K1 with PDK1. In the PDK1 structure, this pocket, is occupied by a crystallographic contact with another molecule of PDK1., Interestingly, close to the PIF-pocket in PDK1, there is an ordered, sulfate ion, interacting tightly with four surrounding side chains. The, ... [(full description)]
