Abstract
Cystic fibrosis is caused by defects in the cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR), commonly the deletion of residue Phe-508 (DeltaF508) in the first nucleotide-binding domain (NBD1), which results in a severe reduction in the population of functional channels at the epithelial cell surface. Previous studies employing incomplete NBD1 domains have attributed this to aberrant folding of DeltaF508 NBD1. We report structural and biophysical studies on complete human NBD1 domains, which fail to demonstrate significant changes of in vitro stability or folding kinetics in the presence or absence of the DeltaF508 mutation. Crystal structures show minimal changes in protein conformation but substantial changes in local surface topography at the site of the mutation, which is located in the region of NBD1 believed to interact with the first membrane spanning domain of CFTR. These results raise the possibility that the primary effect of DeltaF508 is a disruption of proper interdomain interactions at this site in CFTR rather than interference with the folding of NBD1. Interestingly, increases in the stability of NBD1 constructs are observed upon introduction of second-site mutations that suppress the trafficking defect caused by the DeltaF508 mutation, suggesting that these suppressors might function indirectly by improving the folding efficiency of NBD1 in the context of the full-length protein. The human NBD1 structures also solidify the understanding of CFTR regulation by showing that its two protein segments that can be phosphorylated both adopt multiple conformations that modulate access to the ATPase active site and functional interdomain interfaces.
Figure 1.
FIG. 1. Comparison of NBD1 structures. A, sequence alignment of human and mouse NBD1 with NBD domains from other ABC transporters. Blue background, -strands; pink, -helices; purple, 3[10] helices; gray, absence of density in the electron density map. Numbering of the secondary structure elements for CFTR NBD1 is indicated in shaded blocks in the top row. Bold blue indicates residues with high sequence conservation in ABC domains, while bold red indicates residues that have been mutated in forms of hNBD1. Protein Data Bank ID codes are indicated in parentheses. B, stereo pair of superimposed worm diagrams of NBD1 from CFTR. Regions with conformational differences are shown in cyan for hNBD1-2b-F508A (molecule E), blue for hNBD1-7a- F508, and gold for mNBD1 (molecule B). Bound ATP is shown in wire frame representation employing the same colors. The figure was made using Spock (31).

FIG. 2. Local structure at the site of Phe-508 in NBD1 of CFTR. A, stereo image of conformation of Phe-508 loop region in mNBD1 (gold), hNBD1-2b-F508A (cyan), and hNBD1-7a- F508 (blue). B and C, worm diagrams of hNBD1-2b-F508A (B) and hNBD1-7a- F508 (C). Residues 507-510 in B are modeled from the mNBD1 structure. The position of Phe-508 is shown in green. Positions of residues 507 and 509 are shown in gold. Helices in are red, -strands are in blue. D and E, surface properties of hNBD1-2b-F508A (D) and hNBD1-7a- F508 (E) in same orientations as in B and C. Residues 507-510 in hNBD1-2b-F508A structure have been replaced with those from the mNBD1 structure to provide an image representative of the wild-type human protein. Residues are colored to indicate hydrophobic (green), negatively charged (red), positively charge (blue), and neutral (white) side chains. The "F " label indicates the side chain of Phe-508, and "V " indicates the side chain of Val-510. White worms indicate the position of the L-loop from BtuCD (residues 217-227 from PDB id 117v:A) after least squares alignment of the ABC subdomain from its NBD with that from hNBD1. The structural differences visible at the right side of these images derives from a change in the conformation of the helix 4C-helix 5 loop and is likely a results of variation in packing contacts between the two crystal structures. The figure was made using Spock (31).
