Hormone Binding Domain

The X-ray crystal structure of the dimerized atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) receptor hormone-binding domain has provided a first structural view of this anti-hypertensive receptor. The structure reveals a surprising evolutionary link to the periplasmic-binding protein fold family. Furthermore, the presence of a chloride ion in the membrane distal domain and the presence of a second putative effector pocket suggests that the extracellular domain of this receptor is allosterically regulated. The scope of this article is to extensively review the data published on this receptor and to correlate it with the hormone-binding domain structure. In addition, a more detailed description is provided of the important features of this structure including the different binding sites for the ANF hormone, chloride ion, putative effector pocket, glycosylation sites, and dimer interface.Key words: crystal structure, periplasmic-binding protein fold, guanylyl cyclase, hormone receptor.

Inhibition Of Growth

ABSTRACT The symbiotic soil bacterium Sinorhizobium melilotiuses the compatible solutes glycine betaine and proline betaine for both protection against osmotic stress and, at low osmolarities, as an energy source. A PCR strategy based on conserved domains in components of the glycine betaine uptake systems from Escherichia coli(ProU) and Bacillus subtilis (OpuA and OpuC) allowed us to identify a highly homologous ATP-binding cassette (ABC) binding protein-dependent transporter in S. meliloti. This system was encoded by three genes (hutXWV) of an operon which also contained a fourth gene (hutH2) encoding a putative histidase, which is an enzyme involved in the first step of histidine catabolism. Site-directed mutagenesis of the gene encoding the periplasmic binding protein (hutX) and of the gene encoding the cytoplasmic ATPase (hutV) was done to study the substrate specificity of this transporter and its contribution in betaine uptake. These mutants showed a 50% reduction in high-affinity uptake of histidine, proline, and proline betaine and about a 30% reduction in low-affinity glycine betaine transport. When histidine was used as a nitrogen source, a 30% inhibition of growth was observed inhut mutants (hutX and hutH2). Expression analysis of the hut operon determined using ahutX-lacZ fusion revealed induction by histidine, but not by salt stress, suggesting this uptake system has a catabolic role rather than being involved in osmoprotection. To our knowledge, Hut is the first characterized histidine ABC transporter also involved in proline and betaine uptake.

Nitrate And Nitrite

ABSTRACT Klebsiella oxytoca can use nitrate and nitrite as sole nitrogen sources. The enzymes required for nitrate and nitrite assimilation are encoded by the nasFEDCBA operon. We report here the complete nasFED sequence. Sequence comparisons indicate that the nasFED genes encode components of a conventional periplasmic binding protein-dependent transport system consisting of a periplasmic binding protein (NasF), a homodimeric intrinsic membrane protein (NasE), and a homodimeric ATP-binding cassette (ABC) protein (NasD). The NasF protein and the related NrtA and CmpA proteins of cyanobacteria contain leader (signal) sequences with the double-arginine motif that is hypothesized to direct prefolded proteins to an alternate protein export pathway. The NasE protein and the related NrtB and CmpB proteins of cyanobacteria contain unusual variants of the EAA loop sequence that defines membrane-intrinsic proteins of ABC transporters. To characterize nitrate and nitrite transport, we constructed in-frame nonpolar deletions of the chromosomal nasFED genes. Growth tests coupled with nitrate and nitrite uptake assays revealed that the nasFED genes are essential for nitrate transport and participate in nitrite transport as well. Interestingly, the ΔnasF strain exhibited leaky phenotypes, particularly at elevated nitrate concentrations, suggesting that the NasED proteins are not fully dependent on the NasF protein.
