Abstract
p47 is a major adaptor molecule of the cytosolic AAA ATPase p97. The principal role of the p97-p47 complex is in regulation of membrane fusion events. Mono-ubiquitin recognition by p47 has also been shown to be crucial in the p97-p47-mediated Golgi membrane fusion events. Here, we describe the high-resolution solution structures of the N-terminal UBA domain and the central domain (SEP) from p47. The p47 UBA domain has the characteristic three-helix bundle fold and forms a highly stable complex with ubiquitin. We report the interaction surfaces of the two proteins and present a structure for the p47 UBA-ubiquitin complex. The p47 SEP domain adopts a novel fold with a betabetabetaalphaalphabeta secondary structure arrangement, where beta4 pairs in a parallel fashion to beta1. Based on biophysical studies, we demonstrate a clear propensity for the self-association of p47. Furthermore, p97 N binding abolishes p47 self-association, revealing the potential interaction surfaces for recognition of other domains within p97 or the substrate.

(A) C[ ]traces representing the superimposition of the 10 refined p47 UBA -ubiquitin complex structures using the HADDOCK approach. p47 UBA is shown in gold and ubiquitin in green. (B) Ribbon representation of the p47 UBA -ubiquitin complex. (C) Ribbon representation of the structure of the yeast CUE2-1 domain -ubiquitin complex in the same orientation as in (B). The CUE domain is shown in purple (Kang et al, 2003; Shih et al, 2003). (D) Ribbon representation of the structure of Lys48-linked di-ubiquitin in the same orientation as in (B) (Cook et al, 1992, 1994; Cummings et al, 1995; Beal et al, 1998; Phillips et al, 2001; Varadan et al, 2002).
