Abstract
|
 |
|
The crystal structure of the phosphorylated, activated form of the insulin
receptor tyrosine kinase in complex with a peptide substrate and an ATP analog
has been determined at 1.9 A resolution. The activation loop (A-loop) of the
kinase undergoes a major conformational change upon autophosphorylation of
Tyr1158, Tyr1162 and Tyr1163 within the loop, resulting in unrestricted access
of ATP and protein substrates to the kinase active site. Phosphorylated Tyr1163
(pTyr1163) is the key phosphotyrosine in stabilizing the conformation of the
tris-phosphorylated A-loop, whereas pTyr1158 is completely solvent-exposed,
suggesting an availability for interaction with downstream signaling proteins.
The YMXM-containing peptide substrate binds as a short anti-parallel beta-strand
to the C-terminal end of the A-loop, with the methionine side chains occupying
two hydrophobic pockets on the C-terminal lobe of the kinase. The structure thus
reveals the molecular basis for insulin receptor activation via
autophosphorylation, and provides insights into tyrosine kinase substrate
specificity and the mechanism of phosphotransfer.

are shown in red, the -strands
in blue, the nucleotide-binding loop in yellow, the catalytic

axis (black) and arrow (blue) specify the rotation required to
align the N-terminal -sheet
of IRK with that of IRK3P. (C) Superposition of the -sheets

representation and carbon atoms of IRK/IRK3P are colored
orange/green, oxygen atoms are red and nitrogen atoms are blue.
