  ABSTRACT  
 
After binding to cellular receptors and proteolytic activation, the protective antigen component of anthrax toxin forms a heptameric prepore. The prepore later undergoes pH-dependent conversion to a pore, mediating translocation of the edema and lethal factors to the cytosol. We describe structures of the prepore (3.6 A) and a prepore:receptor complex (4.3 A) that reveal the location of pore-forming loops and an unexpected interaction of the receptor with the pore-forming domain. Lower pH is required for prepore-to-pore conversion in the presence of the receptor, indicating that this interaction regulates pH-dependent pore formation. We present an example of a receptor negatively regulating pH-dependent membrane insertion.

Figure 1.
Fig. 1. The (PA[63])[7] prepore structure. (a) A single monomer from the 3.6-Å (PA[63])[7] structure. Domains 1, 2, 3, and 4 are colored in pink, green, yellow and blue, respectively. The previously unresolved 303-322 (red), 343-350 (blue) and 512-515 (blue) loops are visible whereas the 275-283 and 426-427 loops remain unstructured (black dotted lines). (b) An aerial view (domain 1' is at the top, closest to the viewer) of the PA[63] heptamer with one monomer colored as in a. Domain 2 lines the prepore lumen whereas domains 3 and 4 are located on the outside of the heptamer ring. (c) Domains 2 (green) and 4 (blue) from the 3.6-Å (PA[63])[7] structure, as viewed from the bottom. The domain 2 insertion loop (red) projects out to bind the neighboring monomer in a groove between domains 2 and 4. (d) The domain 2 insertion loop contacts domain 4 from its own monomer (residues 600-602) and domains 2 (residue 414) and 4 (residues 668-670) from the neighboring monomer. N306 was mutated to cysteine and labeled with pyrene for the experiments described in Fig. 3b. Residues F313 and F314 are predicted to form the tip of the membrane inserted -hairpin (10).
Figure 2.
Fig. 2. The (PA[63])[7](CMG2)[7] structure. (a) In these bottom and side views, the CMG2 VWA domains are depicted in pink. Only three PA:CMG2 monomers are shown in the side view for clarity. (b) The CMG2 VWA domain (pink) binds both PA domain 2 (white, green, and dark blue) and PA domain 4 (light and dark blue). Direct contacts within the interface are depicted in dark pink (CMG2) and dark blue (PA). The PA insertion loop and the contiguous 2 2 and 2 3 -strands (green) are predicted to peel away from the domain 2 -barrel core to form a pore. The CMG2 VWA domain bound to the PA 340-348 loop is likely to impede this rearrangement. (c) This close-up of the PA:CMG2 interface is colored as in b. Previous PA mutagenesis studies suggest the importance of residues G342, W346, I656, N682, and D683 (blue) in intoxication, although the G342C and W346C mutants may reflect structural instability (16). The domain 2 R344 (blue) is buried within the PA:CMG2 interface and may form a salt bridge with CMG2 E122 (pink). Residues Y119, H121, E122, and Y158 of CMG2 (pink) are strictly conserved in ATR/TEM8 and cluster at the PA domain 2 interface, suggesting that ATR/TEM8 binding will also block PA insertion loop rearrangement. Other CMG2 residues at the interface with PA (yellow) are not conserved in ATR/TEM8.

The most recent references are shown first. Citation data come partly from CiteXplore and partly from an automated harvesting procedure. Note that this is likely to be only a partial list as not all journals are covered by either method. However, we are continually building up the citation data so more and more references will be included with time. Where a reference describes a PDB structure, the PDB code is shown on the right.
