Abstract
|
 |
|
VHS domains are found at the N-termini of select proteins involved in
intracellular membrane trafficking. We have determined the crystal structure of
the VHS domain of the human Tom1 (target of myb 1) protein to 1.5 A resolution.
The domain consists of eight helices arranged in a superhelix. The surface of
the domain has two main features: (1) a basic patch on one side due to several
conserved positively charged residues on helix 3 and (2) a negatively charged
ridge on the opposite side, formed by residues on helix 2. We compare our
structure to the recently obtained structure of tandem VHS-FYVE domains from Hrs
[Mao, Y., Nickitenko, A., Duan, X., Lloyd, T. E., Wu, M. N., Bellen, H., and
Quiocho, F. A. (2000) Cell 100, 447-456]. Key features of the interaction
surface between the FYVE and VHS domains of Hrs, involving helices 2 and 4 of
the VHS domain, are conserved in the VHS domain of Tom1, even though Tom1 does
not have a FYVE domain. We also compare the structures of the VHS domains of
Tom1 and Hrs to the recently obtained structure of the ENTH domain of epsin-1
[Hyman, J., Chen, H., Di Fiore, P. P., De Camilli, P., and BrĂ¼nger, A. T.
(2000) J. Cell Biol. 149, 537-546]. Comparison of the two VHS domains and the
ENTH domain reveals a conserved surface, composed of helices 2 and 4, that is
utilized for protein-protein interactions. In addition, VHS domain-containing
proteins are often localized to membranes. We suggest that the conserved
positively charged surface of helix 3 in VHS and ENTH domains plays a role in
membrane binding.
