CeGMF of C. elegans is analogous to GMFgamma of human and mouse and is 138 amino acids in length. METHODS: We have characterized the solution structure and dynamics of CeGMF by solution NMR spectroscopy and its thermal stability by DSC. RESULTS: The solution structure of CeGMF shows canonical ADF-H fold with two additional beta-strands in the beta4-beta5 loop region. The Site-1 of CeGMF is well formed and residues of all three regions of Site-1 show dynamic flexibility. However, the beta4-beta5 loop of Site-2 is less inclined towards the C-terminal, as the latter is truncated by four residues in comparison to GMF isoforms of human and mouse. Regions of Site-2 show motions on ns-ps timescale, but dynamic flexibility of beta4-beta5 loop is low in comparison to corresponding F-loop region of ADF/cofilin UNC-60B. A general difference in packing of alpha3 and alpha1 between GMF and ADF/cofilins was noticed. Additionally, thermal stability of CeGMF was significantly higher than its ADF/cofilin homologs. CONCLUSION: We have presented the first solution structure of GMF from C. elegans, which highlights the structural differences between the Site-2 of CeGMF and mammalian GMF isoforms. Further, we have seen the differences in structure, dynamics, and thermal stability of GMF and ADF/cofilin. GENERAL SIGNIFICANCE: This study provides a useful insight to structural and dynamics factors that define the specificity of GMF towards Arp2/3 complex.
