Title Crystal structure of the beta-Apical domain of the thermosome reveals structural plasticity in the protrusion region.

Abstract
The crystal structure of the beta-apical domain of the thermosome, an archaeal group II chaperonin from Thermoplasma acidophilum, has been determined at 2.8 A resolution. The structure shows an invariant globular core from which a 25 A long protrusion emanates, composed of an elongated alpha-helix (H10) and a long extended stretch consisting of residues GluB245-ThrB253. A comparison with previous apical domain structures reveals a large segmental displacement of the protruding part of helix H10 via the hinge GluB276-ValB278. The region comprising residues GluB245-ThrB253 adopts an extended beta-like conformation rather than the alpha-helix seen in the alpha-apical domain. Consequently, it appears that the protrusions of the apical domains from group II chaperonins might assume a variety of context-dependent conformations during an open, substrate-accepting state of the chaperonin. Sequence variations in the protrusion regions that are found in the eukaryotic TRiC/CCT subunits may provide different structural propensities and hence serve different roles in substrate recognition.

Figure 1. General Architecture of Chaperonins(A) Side view of the hexadecameric thermosome structure.(B) Side view of the asymmetric GroEL-GroES-(ADP)[7] complex ([77]).Domains are colored in red (equatorial), green (intermediate), and yellow (apical). Within each complex domains of aligned subunits are highlighted in blue (equatorial), light blue (intermediate), and violet (apical). Bound ADP is drawn in yellow.(C) Top view of the thermosome α (red/violet) and β (yellow) apical domains. β strands S12 and S13 and the N-terminal half of helix H10 (lid segments) form the lid domain that seals off the central chamber. Helices H10 and H11 and loop L topologically correspond to helices H and I and the loop connecting β strands 6 and 7 in GroEL that are involved in substrate and/or GroES binding.Figure 1A Figure 1B Figure 3 Figure 5, and Figure 6A were generated using BOBSCRIPT ( [18]) and RASTER3D ( [3 and 54]). Figure 1C was prepared with MOLSCRIPT ( [41]) as modified by D. Peisach and E. Peisach and with POVRAY.

With respect to Figure 1A the view corresponds to a 90° rotation around the pseudo 8-fold axis.(B) Intra-ring contacts between two thermosome subunits as viewed from the inside of the particle. The α and β monomers are color coded as in Figure 1A, and the bound nucleotides are shown in yellow.(C) Inter-ring contacts between two thermosome α subunits related by 2-fold symmetry.(D) GroEL inter-ring contacts. One subunit in the upper ring is related to two subunits in the lower ring by 2-fold axes at the right and left edge of the upper subunit.

Figure 4. Hydrophobicity of the Surface Regions on Group I and Group II ChaperoninsSurface representations of the substrate binding domains of the thermosome α subunit and GroEL were generated with an increased probe radius of 4 Å using the program GRASP ([31]). For orientation, C[α]-backbones (thermosome, yellow; GroEL, green) are shown beneath the surfaces. The surfaces are color coded according to the underlying average hydrophobicity found for surface-exposed residues of group I and group II chaperonins (hydrophobicity scale as in[37]; red, hydrophobic; blue, hydrophilic). The interhelical cleft is marked by white arrows.
