Abstract
Interferon-gamma is an immunomodulatory substance that induces the expression of many genes to orchestrate a cellular response and establish the antiviral state of the cell. Among the most abundant antiviral proteins induced by interferon-gamma are guanylate-binding proteins such as GBP1 and GBP2. These are large GTP-binding proteins of relative molecular mass 67,000 with a high-turnover GTPase activity and an antiviral effect. Here we have determined the crystal structure of full-length human GBP1 to 1.8 A resolution. The amino-terminal 278 residues constitute a modified G domain with a number of insertions compared to the canonical Ras structure, and the carboxy-terminal part is an extended helical domain with unique features. From the structure and biochemical experiments reported here, GBP1 appears to belong to the group of large GTP-binding proteins that includes Mx and dynamin, the common property of which is the ability to undergo oligomerization with a high concentration-dependent GTPase activity.

Figure 2: Comparison of hGBP1 and Ras structures. a, Superimposition of the LG domain of hGBP1 with the G domain of Ras in complex with GDP(PDB accession no. 1Q21) as a stereo view. N-terminal residues 1-36 of hGBP1 up to 1 have been omitted for clarity. The colour code is as in Fig. 1; Ras is in cyan. b, Putative location of nucleotide-binding site in hGBP1. The regions of hGBP1 potentially involved in binding the guanine nucleotide are shown as obtained from a structural superimposition of RasGDP (in cyan) with the corresponding regions in hGBP1 (purple), highlighting functionally important residues necessary for binding and conformational change as balls or in ball-and-stick. Whereas Gly 60^ras overlays very well with Gly 100^hGBP1, residues D119/D184 and T35/T75 do not.

Figure 3: Interaction of the C-terminal helix motif alpha-12/13 with the helical and the LG domains. The electrostatic surface potential shows that the highly charged regions of the helical and LG domains are masked by an 12/13 motif, as indicated in the lower panel by showing 12/ 13 in worm representation.
