Abstract
Activation of the type I TGFbeta receptor (TbetaR-I) requires phosphorylation of a regulatory segment known as the GS region, located upstream of the serine/threonine kinase domain in the cytoplasmic portion of the receptor. The crystal structure of a fragment of unphosphorylated TbetaR-I, containing both the GS region and the catalytic domain, has been determined in complex with the FK506-binding protein FKBP12. TbetaR-I adopts an inactive conformation that is maintained by the unphosphorylated GS region. FKBP12 binds to the GS region of the receptor, capping the TbetaR-II phosphorylation sites and further stabilizing the inactive conformation of TbetaR-I. Certain structural features at the catalytic center of TbetaR-I are characteristic of tyrosine kinases rather than Ser/Thr kinases.

Figure 4. The Inhibited Conformation of T β R-I Is Maintained by the GS Region and the Activation Segment(A) A ribbon drawing showing the hydrophobic interactions made between the GS region helices and the top of the kinase β sheet. T β R-I is viewed from above the kinase N lobe. Thr-204, the site of a constitutively activating T β R-I mutation ([55]), is indicated.(B) A ribbon drawing of the complex showing interactions between the GS loop and the T β R-I kinase, as well as contacts formed between FKBP12 and T β R-I. Several interacting residues are shown, with hydrogen bonding indicated by dashed purple bonds. The L45 loop is indicated.(C) T β R-I viewed from an oblique angle above the kinase N lobe. The T β R-II phosphorylation sites are indicated, as are several residues involved in ionic or polar interactions that stabilize the placement of the C helix. The movement of the C helix and the N lobe β sheet into an active conformation appears to be blocked by the GS loop and a short stretch within the activation segment. These two steric blockers have been colored magenta.(D) The same view as in (C), with a molecular surface representation of the kinase C lobe. The α C side chains have been included to indicate the space occupied by the helix. The outward rotation of the C helix and the N lobe β sheet is blocked by the barrier created by the activation segment.

Figure 5. A Comparison of the FKBP12–FK506 and FKBP12–T β R-I ComplexesA surface representation of FKBP12 bound to FK506 is shown to the left ([57]). To the right is shown a surface representation of FKBP12 bound to the T β R-I GS region. Leu-195 and Leu-196 are bound in the same hydrophobic pocket used to engage immunosuppressant.
