The underlying molecular mechanism, however, remains unclear. Here, we determine the structures of apo-Wdr47-NTD and Wdr47-NTD in complex with a characteristic Wdr47-binding region (WBR) from Camsap3. Wdr47-NTD forms an intertwined dimer with a special cross-over region (COR) in addition to the canonical LisH and globular alpha-helical core (GAC). The basic WBR peptide adopts an alpha-helical conformation and anchors to a tailored acidic pocket embedded in the COR. Mutations in this target-binding pocket disrupt the interaction between Wdr47-NTD and Camsap3. Impairing Wdr47-Camsap interactions markedly reduces rescue effects of Wdr47 on CP-MTs and ciliary beat of Wdr47-deficient ependymal cells. Thus, Wdr47-NTD functions by recognizing a specific basic helical motif in Camsap proteins via its non-canonical COR, a target-binding site in LisH-CTLH-containing domains. Intertwined Wdr47-NTD dimer recognizes a basic-helical motif in Camsap proteins for proper central-pair microtubule formation.,Ren J, Li D, Liu J, Liu H, Yan X, Zhu X, Feng W Cell Rep. 2022 Nov 8;41(6):111589. doi: 10.1016/j.celrep.2022.111589.
