Crystal structure of N-terminal PH domain of ARAP3 protein in complex with inositol 1,3,4,5-tetrakisphosphate
Structural highlights
FunctionARAP3_HUMAN Phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate-dependent GTPase-activating protein that modulates actin cytoskeleton remodeling by regulating ARF and RHO family members. Is activated by phosphatidylinositol 3,4,5-trisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P3) binding. Can be activated by phosphatidylinositol 3,4-bisphosphate (PtdIns(3,4,5)P2) binding, albeit with lower efficiency. Acts on ARF6, RAC1, RHOA and CDC42. Plays a role in the internalization of anthrax toxin.[1] [2] Publication Abstract from PubMedArap3, a dual GTPase-activating protein (GAP) for the small GTPases Arf6 and RhoA, plays key roles in regulating a wide range of biological processes, including cancer cell invasion and metastasis. It is known that Arap3 is a PI3K effector that can bind directly to PI(3,4,5)P3, and the PI(3,4,5)P3-mediated plasma membrane recruitment is crucial for its function. However, the molecular mechanism of how the protein recognizes PI(3,4,5)P3 remains unclear. Here, using liposome pull-down and surface plasmon resonance (SPR) analysis, we found that the N-terminal first pleckstrin homology (PH) domain (Arap3-PH1) can interact with PI(3,4,5)P3 and, with lower affinity, with PI(4,5)P2. To understand how Arap3-PH1 and phosphoinositide (PIP) lipids interact, we solved the crystal structure of the Arap3-PH1 in the apo form and complex with diC4-PI(3,4,5)P3. We also characterized the interactions of Arap3-PH1 with diC4-PI(3,4,5)P3 and diC4-PI(4,5)P2 in solution by nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) spectroscopy. Furthermore, we found overexpression of Arap3 could inhibit breast cancer cell invasion in vitro, and the PIPs-binding ability of the PH1 domain is essential for this function.
