Structure of human ORP1 ANK - Rab7 complex
Structural highlights
DiseaseRAB7A_HUMAN Defects in RAB7A are the cause of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2B (CMT2B) [MIM:600882; also known as hereditary motor and sensory neuropathy II (HMSN2). CMT2B is a form of Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease, the most common inherited disorder of the peripheral nervous system. Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease is classified in two main groups on the basis of electrophysiologic properties and histopathology: primary peripheral demyelinating neuropathy or CMT1, and primary peripheral axonal neuropathy or CMT2. Neuropathies of the CMT2 group are characterized by signs of axonal regeneration in the absence of obvious myelin alterations, normal or slightly reduced nerve conduction velocities, and progressive distal muscle weakness and atrophy. CMT2B is clinically characterized by marked distal muscle weakness and a high frequency of foot ulcers, infections and amputations of the toes. CMT2B inheritance is autosomal dominant.[1] [2] [3] [4] FunctionRAB7A_HUMAN Key regulator in endo-lysosomal trafficking. Governs early-to-late endosomal maturation, microtubule minus-end as well as plus-end directed endosomal migration and positioning, and endosome-lysosome transport through different protein-protein interaction cascades. Plays a central role, not only in endosomal traffic, but also in many other cellular and physiological events, such as growth-factor-mediated cell signaling, nutrient-transportor mediated nutrient uptake, neurotrophin transport in the axons of neurons and lipid metabolism. Also involved in regulation of some specialized endosomal membrane trafficking, such as maturation of melanosomes, pathogen-induced phagosomes (or vacuoles) and autophagosomes. Plays a role in the maturation and acidification of phagosomes that engulf pathogens, such as S.aureus and M.tuberculosis. Plays a role in the fusion of phagosomes with lysosomes. Plays important roles in microbial pathogen infection and survival, as well as in participating in the life cycle of viruses. Microbial pathogens possess survival strategies governed by RAB7A, sometimes by employing RAB7A function (e.g. Salmonella) and sometimes by excluding RAB7A function (e.g. Mycobacterium). In concert with RAC1, plays a role in regulating the formation of RBs (ruffled borders) in osteoclasts. Controls the endosomal trafficking and neurite outgrowth signaling of NTRK1/TRKA. Regulates the endocytic trafficking of the EGF-EGFR complex by regulating its lysosomal degradation.[5] [6] [7] [8] Publication Abstract from PubMedOxysterol-binding protein (OSBP) and OSBP-related proteins (ORPs) constitute a family of lipid transfer proteins conserved in eukaryotes. ORP1 transports cholesterol at the interface between the late endosomes/lysosomes (LELs) and the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). ORP1 is targeted to the endosomal membranes by forming a tripartite complex with the LE GTPase Rab7 and its effector RILP (Rab7-interacting lysosomal protein). Here, we determined the crystal structure of human ORP1 ANK domain in complex with the GTP-bound form of Rab7. ORP1 ANK binds to the helix alpha3 of Rab7 located away from the switching regions, which makes the interaction independent of the nucleotide-binding state of Rab7. Thus, the effector-interacting switch regions of Rab7 are accessible for RILP binding, allowing formation of the ORP1-Rab7-RILP complex. ORP1 ANK binds to Rab7 and the Rab7-RILP complex with similar micro-molar affinities, which is consistent with the independence binding of ORP1 and RILP to Rab7. The structural model of the ORP1-Rab7-RILP complex correlates with the recruitment of ORP1 at the LEL-ER interface and the role in lipid transport and regulation.
