Title Improved structures of full-Length p97, An aaa atpase: implications for mechanisms of nucleotide-Dependent conformational change.
Authors J.M.Davies, A.T.Brunger, W.I.Weis.

Abstract
The ATPases associated with various cellular activities (AAA) protein p97 has been implicated in a variety of cellular processes, including endoplasmic reticulum-associated degradation and homotypic membrane fusion. p97 belongs to a subgroup of AAA proteins that contains two nucleotide binding domains, D1 and D2. We determined the crystal structure of D2 at 3.0 A resolution. This model enabled rerefinement of full-length p97 in different nucleotide states against previously reported low-resolution diffraction data to significantly improved R values and Ramachandran statistics. Although the overall fold remained similar, there are significant improvements, especially around the D2 nucleotide binding site. The rerefinement illustrates the importance of knowledge of high-resolution structures of fragments covering most of the whole molecule. The structures suggest that nucleotide hydrolysis is transformed into larger conformational changes by pushing of one D2 domain by its neighbor in the hexamer, and transmission of nucleotide-state information through the D1-D2 linker to displace the N-terminal, effector binding domain.
Figure 1.
Figure 1. Structure of p97 D2 at 3.0 Å Resolution
(A) The heptameric state of p97 D2 is shown as crystallized. Protomers are uniquely colored.
(B) Schematic of transformations mapping D2 protomer from hepatmer to hexamer. The transformation consists of a 6 Å axial shift accompanied by an 11.4° counter-clockwise rotation about an axis parallel to the molecular 6-fold axis, resulting in relative preservation of the interdomain interface.
(C) Representative electron density of 14-fold averaged D2 domain.
(D) The conformation of the nucleotide binding site of D2 fragment is shown with characteristic AAA motifs highlighted as follows: Walker A (slate); Walker B (red); sensor 1 (purple); sensor 2 (purple); arginine finger (white); N-linker (pink).
(E) The D2 binding sites of the full-length models are superposed for the ATP (magenta), ADP-AlF[x] (blue), and ADP (green) state with ADP shown bound in the pocket.
Figure 6.
Figure 6. Comparison of Nucleotide Binding Sites in D1 and D2
(A) The nucleotide binding pockets for the D1 (dark green) and D2 (light green) domains are superposed. Note that a helix of the C-terminal region of D2 impinges on the sensor I region of that domain to bring sensor I into proximity of the bound ATP.
(B and C) The sensor I regions of D1 (B) and D2 (C) are shown in the ADP state. Distances of the arginine finger to the ADP β-phosphate and to the sensor I asparagine are indicated.

Figure 2.
Figure 2. p97/VCP protomer and pore schematic. (a,b) Two orthogonal views of molecular surfaces of the p97/VCP hexamer, with the subdomains of alternate protomers colored red or as in Figure 1a. The Zn2+ and the putative His317 ligands are shown in the central pore. Molecular dimensions are based on C -C distances, with radii shown for the top view and diameters given for the side view at the narrowest region in the middle and as well as between opposing helices 12'. (c) Schematic view of the pore with dimensions as indicated. The protrusions shown within the D2 region of the pore indicate the presence of a disordered section of the protein (residues 586 -597) that may point into the central pore. (d) Protomer-protomer interactions. The 'A-facing' elements are colored and labeled in red, the 'B-facing' elements are colored according to subdomain. The view has been selected to highlight the 'wrap-around' interaction involving helix 5/ 5'.

Figure 3. Protomer views and schematic. (a,b) Orthogonal views of the p97/VCP protomer with subdomains colored as in Figure 1a. The disordered connection between 12' and 13' is indicated as a dashed green line. Selected helices are labeled. (c) Schematic models of the p97/VCP protomer in the ADP -AlF[x] and ADP states colored according to subdomain. The model of the ADP state is derived from the comparison of the p97/VCP crystal structure with the cryo-EM map of the ADP state^27; in the ADP state the N-terminal domain is highly mobile and the protrusion following helix 12' of the D2 helical domain becomes ordered.

Figure 1.
Figure 1. Conformational variability; deviation from 6-fold symmetry. Conformational differences between the three independent protomers in the asymmetric unit are shown for the (a) ATP/= and (b) ADP crystal structures. The same view was used for both panels. Pseudo-ellipsoids were generated as described in Materials and Methods. The color scale (blue to red) indicates the magnitude of the deviation from 6-fold symmetry (0.5-5.0 Å). Ellipsoids that are pointing in a similar direction indicate groups of residues that are moving as rigid bodies.
Figure 3.
Figure 3. Nucleotide-dependent domain motions. Motions for the (a) D2a/b, (b) D1a, and (c) N domains are displayed between pairs of the ATP (red), ATP/= (blue), ADP (green), and APO (yellow) state structures. Adjacent domains for the principle domain shown in (a), (b) or (c) are shown, in gray, for reference. The superposition of the APO and ATP structures showed minimal differences and is therefore not depicted here. The orientations of the views are the same for each transition. The views were chosen such that the axis of rotation for a particular domain motion is perpendicular to the plane of the page, with the exception of the ATP/= to ADP (blue to green) transition, for which the view has been oriented such that the rotation axis is vert, similar 45° off the perpendicular toward the right-hand side of the page. Arrows indicate the direction of the motions. Helices are numbered according to the p97/VCP numbering scheme (WB, Walker B helix; L, linker helix).30 (d) A simplified diagram summarizing the domain motions from the ATP to the ATP/= state. The N-D1 linker is shown in solid color, the D2a domain and D1D2 linker are shown with broken lines. The D2a domain and the D1D2 linker become ordered in the transition from the ATP to the ATP/= state. All motions are described relative to the invariant D1a/b domain.
