Abstract
|
 |
|
Regulation of protein phosphatase 1 (PP1) is controlled by a diverse array of
regulatory proteins. However, how these proteins direct PP1 specificity is not
well understood. More than one-third of the nuclear pool of PP1 forms a
holoenzyme with the nuclear inhibitor of PP1, NIPP1, to regulate chromatin
remodeling, among other essential biological functions. Here, we show that the
PP1-binding domain of NIPP1 is an intrinsically disordered protein, which binds
PP1 in an unexpected manner. NIPP1 forms an α helix that engages PP1 at a
unique interaction site, using polar rather than hydrophobic contacts.
Importantly, the structure also reveals a shared PP1 interaction site outside of
the RVxF motif, the ΦΦ motif. Finally, we show that NIPP1:PP1 substrate
selectivity is determined by altered electrostatics and enhanced substrate
localization. Together, our results provide the molecular basis by which NIPP1
directs PP1 substrate specificity in the nucleus.
