Solution structure of the PPIase domain of TbPar42

Structural highlights
Publication Abstract from PubMedParvulins belong to a family of peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerases (PPIases) that catalyze the cis/trans conformations of prolyl-peptidyl bonds. Herein, we characterized two novel parvulins, TbPIN1 and TbPAR42, in Trypanosoma brucei. TbPIN1, a 115 amino-acid protein, contains a single PPIase domain but lacks the N-terminal WW domain. Using NMR spectroscopy, TbPIN1 was found to exhibit PPIase activity toward a phosphorylated substrate. Overexpression of TbPIN1 can rescue the impaired temperature-sensitive phenotype in a mutant yeast strain. TbPAR42, containing 383 amino acids, comprises a novel FHA domain at its N terminus and a C-terminal PPIase domain but is a non-Pin1-type PPIase. Functionally, a knockdown of TbPAR42 in its procyclic form results in reduced proliferation rates suggesting an important role in cell growth.
