Abstract
The multi-subunit NADPH oxidase complex plays a crucial role in host defense against microbial infection through the production of reactive oxygen species. Activation of the NADPH oxidase requires the targeting of a cytoplasmic p40-p47-p67(phox) complex to the membrane bound heterodimeric p22-gp91(phox) flavocytochrome. This interaction is prevented in the resting state due to an auto-inhibited conformation of p47(phox). The X-ray structure of the auto-inhibited form of p47(phox) reveals that tandem SH3 domains function together to maintain the cytoplasmic complex in an inactive form. Further structural and biochemical data show that phosphorylation of p47(phox) activates a molecular switch that relieves the inhibitory intramolecular interaction. This permits p47(phox) to interact with the cytoplasmic tail of p22(phox) and initiate formation of the active, membrane bound enzyme complex.

Figure 2. Overall Structure of the Auto-Inhibitory Conformation of p47^phox(A) Structure of the auto-inhibited domain swapped dimer of p47^phox (156–340). The two monomers are shown in red and green. The crystal structure of the SH3 domain of Abl (1AB0) has been overlapped onto SH3[A] and is shown in yellow. The lower part of Figure 2A shows an expanded view of this overlap.(B) Overall structure of the biological monomer of auto-inhibited p47^phox. The SH3[A] and SH3[B] domains are colored in blue and red, respectively and the polybasic region in yellow. The secondary structural elements are labeled according to the standard SH3 domain nomenclature. SH3[A] and SH3[B] are related by an approximate 2-fold axis that is perpendicular to the plane of the page.

Figure 3. P47^phox Constitutes a Novel Mode of SH3 Domain Ligand Interactions(A) Intramolecular interactions between the sequence R[296]GAPPRRSS[304] and the tandem SH3 domains. The molecular surfaces of SH3[A] and SH3[B] are shown in blue-gray and green-gray, respectively. Residues 296–303 are depicted in stick format; Ser304 has been omitted for clarity. SH3-domain residues involved in the intramolecular interaction are indicated by their residue number.(B) Schematic representation of the interactions between the RGAPPRRSS-motif and the tandem SH3 domains. The figure was drawn with LIGPLOT (Wallace et al., 1995). Residues of the polybasic core are shown in blue and residues of the two SH3 domains in orange. Hydrogen bonds are depicted as black lines with the bond distances indicated in Å and hydrophobic interactions are shown as green (SH3-domains) and blue (polybasic peptide) rays.
