Figure 5. Structural Determinants of mSCP2 Cargo Loading onto Pex5p(C)
(A) Stereo view of the 2F[O] − F[C] electron density, using phases from the refined model and contoured at 1σ, of the PTS1 motif from mSCP2 (gray) and some interacting residues from Pex5p and ordered solvent molecules (dark green).
(B) Pex5p(C)/mSCP2 complex formation by two distinct interfaces: C-terminal PTS1 motif from mSCP2 (orange)-central cavity of the circular TPR motif structure from Pex5p; secondary surface from mSCP2-C-terminal helical bundle from Pex5p. Ser600 is in a central position between the two surface patches, allowing the proper arrangement of the two cargo surface patches of Pex5p to support binding of mSCP2. The C terminus of the 7C loop (red) interacts by a few hydrogen bonds with the TPR1 segment.
(C) TPR4 motif of Pex5p(C), as observed in the cargo-loaded structure of the receptor. Specific interactions between TPR3 and TPR4, generating a circular conformation of Pex5p(C), are shown. Colors are as in Figure 3 and Figure 4, except that some of the bonds of residues from the C-terminal TPR motifs 5–7 and the 7C loop are colored in gray to allow illustrations of oxygen and nitrogen atoms. Hydrogen bonds are shown by dashed lines.
