ABSTRACT

Escherichia coli osmosensor EnvZ is a protein histidine kinase that plays a central role in osmoregulation, a cellular adaptation process involving the His-Asp phosphorelay signal transduction system. Dimerization of the transmembrane protein is essential for its autophosphorylation and phosphorelay signal transduction functions. Here we present the NMR-derived structure of the homodimeric core domain (residues 223-289) of EnvZ that includes His 243, the site of autophosphorylation and phosphate transfer reactions. The structure comprises a four-helix bundle formed by two identical helix-turn-helix subunits, revealing the molecular assembly of two active sites within the dimeric kinase.

Figure 3.
Figure 3. Interaction between EnvZ and OmpR. a, Two views of the molecular surface are colored according to electrostatic potential. Negative potential is colored in red and positive potential in blue. To highlight the inter-subunit surface, residue numbers of one subunit are shown in blue and those of the other subunit in black. In the vicinity of His 243 and Thr 247, an acidic patch is formed by Asp 244 from one subunit and by Asp 273 and Glu 276 from the other subunit (left hand panel). An additional acidic cluster, involving Asp 232 and Asp 233 from one subunit and Asp 286 from the other subunit, is at the same molecular face as the other acidic cluster, but is distant from His 243. Arg 246 is also close to His 243 (right hand panel). The image in the left panel is related to that in the right panel by a 90° rotation along the vertical axis. b, OmpR-induced changes in intensity of the backbone peaks in ^1H-^15N HSQC spectra of EnvZ domain A. A series of ^1H-^15N HSQC spectra were recorded at each of the following ratios: [OmpR(1−134)]/[EnvZ] = 0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8, and 1.0. Only the spectra at ratios 0.0 (left) and 0.2 (right) are shown. Peak intensities were analyzed with nmrDraw and PIPP software. Peaks that displayed very large changes are boxed. c, The changes in cross peak intensities in the HSQC spectra in the titration experiment are classified into four groups (very large, large, medium, and small) and shown in red, orange, yellow, and green, respectively, on the ribbon diagram of EnvZ domain A. The conserved His 243 as well as the N- and C- termini are marked.

Figure 4. Summary of mutations in EnvZ domain A. Mutations in domain A that affect EnvZ functions^14, ^15 are summarized in the space filling model. Mutations that resulted in kinase-/phosphatase+ are colored in green, and kinase+/phosphatase- in light blue. The two subunits are colored in pink and yellow as in Fig. 1. The inter-subunit interface is shown in the left hand panel and the intra-subunit interface in the right hand panel.
