The MVB pathway plays essential roles in several eukaryotic cellular, processes. Proper function of the MVB pathway requires reversible membrane, association of the ESCRTs, a process catalyzed by Vps4 ATPase. Vta1, regulates the Vps4 activity, but its mechanism of action was poorly, understood. We report the high-resolution crystal structures of the Did2-, and Vps60-binding N-terminal domain and the Vps4-binding C-terminal domain, of S. cerevisiae Vta1. The C-terminal domain also mediates Vta1, dimerization and both subunits are required for its function as a Vps4, regulator. Emerging from our analysis is a mechanism of regulation by Vta1, in which the C-terminal domain stabilizes the ATP-dependent double ring, assembly of Vps4. In addition, the MIT motif-containing N-terminal domain, projected by a long disordered linker, allows contact between the Vps4, disassembly machinery and the accessory ESCRT-III proteins. This provides, an additional level of regulation and coordination for ESCRT-III assembly, and disassembly.
