EEA1 homodimer of C-terminal FYVE domain bound to inositol 1,3-diphosphate
Contents |
Overview
Early endosome autoantigen localization to early endosomes is mediated by, a C-terminal region, which includes a calmodulin binding motif, a Rab5, interaction site, and a FYVE domain that selectively binds phosphatidyl, inositol 3-phosphate. The crystal structure of the C-terminal region bound, to inositol 1,3-bisphosphate reveals an organized, quaternary assembly, consisting of a parallel coiled coil and a dyad-symmetric FYVE domain, homodimer. Structural and biochemical observations support a multivalent, mechanism for endosomal localization in which domain organization, dimerization, and quaternary structure amplify the weak affinity and, modest specificity of head group interactions with conserved residues. A, unique mode of membrane engagement deduced from the quaternary structure, of the C-terminal region provides insight into the structural basis of, endosome tethering.
