Function
[ABC1_MYCTU] Involved in the translocation of an unknown substrate across the membrane. Transmembrane domains (TMD) form a pore in the membrane and the ATP-binding domain (NBD) is responsible for energy generation. Required for virulence.[1] [2]
Publication Abstract from PubMed
The Mycobacterium tuberculosis ATP-binding cassette transporter Rv1747 is a putative exporter of cell wall biosynthesis intermediates. Rv1747 has a cytoplasmic regulatory module consisting of two pThr-interacting Forkhead-associated (FHA) domains connected by a conformationally disordered linker with two phospho-acceptor threonines (pThr). The structures of FHA-1 and FHA-2 were determined by X-ray crystallography and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy, respectively. Relative to the canonical 11-strand beta-sandwich FHA domain fold of FHA-1, FHA-2 is circularly permuted and lacking one beta-strand. Nevertheless, the two share a conserved pThr-binding cleft. FHA-2 is less stable and more dynamic than FHA-1, yet binds model pThr peptides with moderately higher affinity ( approximately 50 muM versus 500 muM equilibrium dissociation constants). Based on NMR relaxation and chemical shift perturbation measurements, when joined within a polypeptide chain, either FHA domain can bind either linker pThr to form intra- and intermolecular complexes. We hypothesize that this enables tunable phosphorylation-dependent multimerization to regulate Rv1747 transporter activity.
