Crystal structure of Protein Phosphatase 1 bound to the natural inhibitor Tautomycetin
Structural highlights
FunctionPP1A_HUMAN Protein phosphatase that associates with over 200 regulatory proteins to form highly specific holoenzymes which dephosphorylate hundreds of biological targets. Protein phosphatase 1 (PP1) is essential for cell division, and participates in the regulation of glycogen metabolism, muscle contractility and protein synthesis. Involved in regulation of ionic conductances and long-term synaptic plasticity. May play an important role in dephosphorylating substrates such as the postsynaptic density-associated Ca(2+)/calmodulin dependent protein kinase II. Component of the PTW/PP1 phosphatase complex, which plays a role in the control of chromatin structure and cell cycle progression during the transition from mitosis into interphase. Regulates NEK2 function in terms of kinase activity and centrosome number and splitting, both in the presence and absence of radiation-induced DNA damage. Regulator of neural tube and optic fissure closure, and enteric neural crest cell (ENCCs) migration during development.[1] Publication Abstract from PubMedSelective inhibitors for each serine/threonine phosphatase (PPP) are essential to investigate the biological actions of PPPs and to guide drug development. Biologically diverse organisms (e.g., cyanobacteria, dinoflagellates, beetles) produce structurally distinct toxins that are catalytic inhibitors of PPPs. However, most toxins exhibit little selectivity, typically inhibiting multiple family members with similar potencies. Thus, the use of these toxins as chemical tools to study the relationship between individual PPPs and their biological substrates, and how disruptions in these relationships contributes to human disease, is severely limited. Here, we show that tautomycetin (TTN) is highly selective for a single PPP, protein phosphatase 1 (PP1/PPP1C). Our structure of the PP1:TTN complex reveals that PP1 selectivity is defined by a covalent bond between TTN and a PP1-specific cysteine residue, Cys127. Together, these data provide key molecular insights needed for the development of novel probes targeting single PPPs, especially PP1.
