Abstract
|
 |
|
Two-pore channels (TPCs) contain two copies of a Shaker-like six-transmembrane
(6-TM) domain in each subunit and are ubiquitously expressed in both animals and
plants as organellar cation channels. Here we present the crystal structure of a
vacuolar two-pore channel from Arabidopsis thaliana, AtTPC1, which functions as
a homodimer. AtTPC1 activation requires both voltage and cytosolic Ca(2+).
Ca(2+) binding to the cytosolic EF-hand domain triggers conformational changes
coupled to the pair of pore-lining inner helices from the first 6-TM domains,
whereas membrane potential only activates the second voltage-sensing domain, the
conformational changes of which are coupled to the pair of inner helices from
the second 6-TM domains. Luminal Ca(2+) or Ba(2+) can modulate voltage
activation by stabilizing the second voltage-sensing domain in the resting state
and shift voltage activation towards more positive potentials. Our Ba(2+)-bound
AtTPC1 structure reveals a voltage sensor in the resting state, providing
hitherto unseen structural insight into the general voltage-gating mechanism
among voltage-gated channels.
