Structure in solution of the TANGO1 cargo-binding domain (21-131)
Structural highlights
DiseaseTGO1_HUMAN The disease may be caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. FunctionTGO1_HUMAN Plays a role in the transport of cargos that are too large to fit into COPII-coated vesicles and require specific mechanisms to be incorporated into membrane-bound carriers and exported from the endoplasmic reticulum. This protein is required for collagen VII (COL7A1) secretion by loading COL7A1 into transport carriers. It may participate in cargo loading of COL7A1 at endoplasmic reticulum exit sites by binding to COPII coat subunits Sec23/24 and guiding SH3-bound COL7A1 into a growing carrier. Does not play a role in global protein secretion and is apparently specific to COL7A1 cargo loading. However, it may participate in secretion of other proteins in cells that do not secrete COL7A1. It is also specifically required for the secretion of lipoproteins by participating in their export from the endoplasmic reticulum (PubMed:19269366, PubMed:27138255). Required for correct assembly of COPII coat components at endoplasmic reticulum exit sites (ERES) and for the localization of SEC16A and membrane-bound ER-resident complexes consisting of MIA2 and PREB/SEC12 to ERES (PubMed:28442536).[1] [2] [3] Publication Abstract from PubMedBulky cargos like procollagens, apolipoproteins, and mucins exceed the size of conventional COPII vesicles. During evolution a process emerged in metazoans, predominantly governed by the TANGO1 protein family, that organizes cargo at the exit sites of the endoplasmic reticulum and facilitates export by the formation of tunnel-like connections between the ER and Golgi. Hitherto, cargo-recognition appeared to be mediated by an SH3-like domain. Based on structural and dynamic data as well as interaction studies from NMR spectroscopy and microscale thermophoresis presented here, we show that the luminal cargo-recognition domain of TANGO1 adopts a new functional fold for which we suggest the term MOTH (MIA, Otoraplin, TALI/TANGO1 homology) domain. These MOTH domains, as well as an evolutionary intermediate found in invertebrates, constitute a distinct domain family that emerged from SH3 domains and acquired the ability to bind collagen. Characterization of a fold in TANGO1 evolved from SH3 domains for the export of bulky cargos.,Arnolds O, Stoll R Nat Commun. 2023 Apr 20;14(1):2273. doi: 10.1038/s41467-023-37705-4.
