Crystal Structure of The Cand1-Cul1-Roc1 Complex
Overview
The SCF ubiquitin ligase complex regulates diverse cellular functions by, ubiquitinating numerous protein substrates. Cand1, a 120 kDa HEAT repeat, protein, forms a tight complex with the Cul1-Roc1 SCF catalytic core, inhibiting the assembly of the multisubunit E3 complex. The crystal, structure of the Cand1-Cul1-Roc1 complex shows that Cand1 adopts a highly, sinuous superhelical structure, clamping around the elongated SCF scaffold, protein Cul1. At one end, a Cand1 beta hairpin protrusion partially, occupies the adaptor binding site on Cul1, inhibiting its interactions, with the Skp1 adaptor and the substrate-recruiting F box protein subunits., At the other end, two Cand1 HEAT repeats pack against a conserved Cul1, surface cleft and bury a Cul1 lysine residue, whose modification by the, ubiquitin-like protein, Nedd8, is able to block Cand1-Cul1 association., Together with biochemical evidence, these structural results elucidate the, mechanisms by which Cand1 and Nedd8 regulate the assembly-disassembly, cycles of SCF and other cullin-dependent E3 complexes.
