DiseaseDHDDS_HUMAN Non-specific early-onset epileptic encephalopathy;Retinitis pigmentosa. The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. The disease may be caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry. FunctionDHDDS_HUMAN With NUS1, forms the dehydrodolichyl diphosphate synthase (DDS) complex, an essential component of the dolichol monophosphate (Dol-P) biosynthetic machinery. Both subunits contribute to enzymatic activity, i.e. condensation of multiple copies of isopentenyl pyrophosphate (IPP) to farnesyl pyrophosphate (FPP) to produce dehydrodolichyl diphosphate (Dedol-PP), a precursor of dolichol phosphate which is utilized as a sugar carrier in protein glycosylation in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) (PubMed:25066056, PubMed:28842490, PubMed:32817466). Synthesizes long-chain polyprenols, mostly of C95 and C100 chain length (PubMed:32817466). Regulates the glycosylation and stability of nascent NPC2, thereby promoting trafficking of LDL-derived cholesterol (PubMed:21572394).[1] [2] [3] [4] Publication Abstract from PubMedCis-prenyltransferase (cis-PTase) catalyzes the rate-limiting step in the synthesis of glycosyl carrier lipids required for protein glycosylation in the lumen of endoplasmic reticulum. Here, we report the crystal structure of the human NgBR/DHDDS complex, which represents an atomic resolution structure for any heterodimeric cis-PTase. The crystal structure sheds light on how NgBR stabilizes DHDDS through dimerization, participates in the enzyme's active site through its C-terminal -RXG- motif, and how phospholipids markedly stimulate cis-PTase activity. Comparison of NgBR/DHDDS with homodimeric cis-PTase structures leads to a model where the elongating isoprene chain extends beyond the enzyme's active site tunnel, and an insert within the alpha3 helix helps to stabilize this energetically unfavorable state to enable long-chain synthesis to occur. These data provide unique insights into how heterodimeric cis-PTases have evolved from their ancestral, homodimeric forms to fulfill their function in long-chain polyprenol synthesis. Structural elucidation of the cis-prenyltransferase NgBR/DHDDS complex reveals insights in regulation of protein glycosylation.,Edani BH, Grabinska KA, Zhang R, Park EJ, Siciliano B, Surmacz L, Ha Y, Sessa WC Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A. 2020 Aug 25;117(34):20794-20802. doi:, 10.1073/pnas.2008381117.
