Crystal Structure of Yeast Protein Disulfide Isomerase
Structural highlights
FunctionPDI_YEAST Protein disulfide isomerase of ER lumen required for formation of disulfide bonds in secretory and cell-surface proteins and which unscrambles non-native disulfide bonds. Forms a complex with MNL1 to process unfolded protein-bound Man8GlcNAc2 oligosaccharides to Man7GlcNAc2, promoting degradation in unfolded protein response.[1] [2] [3] Evolutionary ConservationCheck, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMedProtein disulfide isomerase plays a key role in catalyzing the folding of secretory proteins. It features two catalytically inactive thioredoxin domains inserted between two catalytically active thioredoxin domains and an acidic C-terminal tail. The crystal structure of yeast PDI reveals that the four thioredoxin domains are arranged in the shape of a twisted "U" with the active sites facing each other across the long sides of the "U." The inside surface of the "U" is enriched in hydrophobic residues, thereby facilitating interactions with misfolded proteins. The domain arrangement, active site location, and surface features strikingly resemble the Escherichia coli DsbC and DsbG protein disulfide isomerases. Biochemical studies demonstrate that all domains of PDI, including the C-terminal tail, are required for full catalytic activity. The structure defines a framework for rationalizing the differences between the two active sites and their respective roles in catalyzing the formation and rearrangement of disulfide bonds. The crystal structure of yeast protein disulfide isomerase suggests cooperativity between its active sites.,Tian G, Xiang S, Noiva R, Lennarz WJ, Schindelin H Cell. 2006 Jan 13;124(1):61-73.
