Structure of the bacterial pathogens ATPase with substrate ATP gamma S
Structural highlights
FunctionSCTN_SHIFL ATPase component of the type III secretion system (T3SS), also called injectisome, which is used to inject bacterial effector proteins into eukaryotic host cells (PubMed:26947936, PubMed:27770024, PubMed:29595954). Acts as a molecular motor to provide the energy that is required for the export of proteins (Probable). Required for type III secretion apparatus (T3SA) formation, proper protein secretion, host cell invasion and virulence (PubMed:26947936, PubMed:27770024, PubMed:31162724). May play a critical role in T3SS substrate recognition, disassembly of the effector/chaperone complex and unfolding of the effector in an ATP-dependent manner prior to secretion (By similarity).[UniProtKB:P0A1B9][1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] Publication Abstract from PubMedGram-negative bacteria utilize the type III secretion system (T3SS) to inject effector proteins into the host cell cytoplasm, where they subvert cellular functions and assist pathogen invasion. The conserved type III-associated ATPase is critical for the separation of chaperones from effector proteins, the unfolding of effector proteins and translocating them through the narrow channel of the secretion apparatus. However, how ATP hydrolysis is coupled to the mechanical work of the enzyme remains elusive. Herein, we present a complete description of nucleoside triphosphate binding by surface presentation antigens 47 (Spa47) from Shigella flexneri, based on crystal structures containing ATPgammaS, a catalytic magnesium ion and an ordered water molecule. Combining the crystal structures of Spa47-ATPgammaS and unliganded Spa47, we propose conformational changes in Spa47 associated with ATP binding, the binding of ATP induces a conformational change of a highly conserved luminal loop, facilitating ATP hydrolysis by the Spa47 ATPase. Additionally, we identified a specific hydrogen bond critical for ATP recognition and demonstrated that, while ATPgammaS is an ideal analog for probing ATP binding, AMPPNP is a poor ATP mimic. Our findings provide structural insight pertinent for inhibitor design.
