Structure of 14-3-3 gama in complex with TFEB 14-3-3 binding motif
Structural highlights
Function[1433G_HUMAN] Adapter protein implicated in the regulation of a large spectrum of both general and specialized signaling pathways. Binds to a large number of partners, usually by recognition of a phosphoserine or phosphothreonine motif. Binding generally results in the modulation of the activity of the binding partner.[1] Publication Abstract from PubMedAs a master regulator of the macroautophagy/autophagy-lysosomal pathway, TFEB (transcription factor EB) plays a prominent role in regulating neurodegenerative diseases and cancer. The transcription activity of TFEB is tightly controlled by phosphorylation and dephosphorylation. Phosphorylated S211 (p-S211) of TFEB can be recognized by YWHA/14-3-3 proteins for TFEB cytoplasmic localization. Here, we characterized the interactions between phosphorylated TFEB and YWHA/14-3-3 proteins and determined the structures of YWHA/14-3-3 proteins in complex with a TFEB p-S211-peptide. Although the critical arginine for YWHA/14-3-3 recognition is missing in the N terminus of the TFEB p-S211-peptide, the C-terminal additional hydrophobic residues of the peptide unexpectedly occupy nearly half of the target-binding groove of YWHA/14-3-3 proteins, which compensates for the N-terminal defect and is distinct from the canonical YWHA/14-3-3-binding mode. Mutations of essential residues in the interaction interface between TFEB and YWHA/14-3-3 proteins disrupted their interactions and severely impaired the cytoplasmic localization of TFEB, which altered the expression of TFEB target genes and affected autophagy. Thus, YWHA/14-3-3 proteins recognize phosphorylated TFEB by a noncanonical mode for controlling TFEB cytoplasmic localization and its activity.
