We recently solved the structure of the BCH domain from yeast p50RhoGAP ((Y)BCH) and showed that it maintains the adjacent GAP domain in an auto-inhibited state through the beta5 strand. Our previous WT (Y)BCH structure shows that a unique kink at position 116 thought to be made by a proline residue between alpha helices alpha6 and alpha7 is essential for the formation of intertwined dimer from asymmetric monomers. Here we sought to establish the role and impact of this Pro116. However, the kink persists in the structure of P116A mutant (Y)BCH domain, suggesting that the scaffold is not dictated by the proline residue at this position. We further identified Tyr124 (or Tyr188 in (H)BCH) as a conserved residue in the crucial beta5 strand. Extending to the human ortholog, when substituted to acidic residues, Tyr188D or Tyr188E, we observed an increase in RhoA binding and self-dimerization, indicative of a loss of inhibition of the GAP domain by the BCH domain. These results point to distinct roles and impact of the non-conserved and conserved amino acid positions in regulating the structural and functional complexity of the BCH domain.
