Structure of the DBD domain of E. coli antitoxin RelBStructure of the DBD domain of E. coli antitoxin RelB
Structural highlights
FunctionRELB_ECOLI Antitoxin component of a toxin-antitoxin (TA) module. Counteracts the effect of RelE via direct protein-protein interaction, enabling the reversion of translation inhibition. Also acts as an autorepressor of relBE transcription. DNA-binding and repression is stronger when complexed with corepressor RelE. Increased transcription rate of relBE and activation of relE is consistent with a lower level of RelB in starved cells due to degradation of RelB by protease Lon.[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] Seems to be a principal mediator of cell death in liquid media.[6] [7] [8] [9] [10] Evolutionary Conservation![]() Check, as determined by ConSurfDB. You may read the explanation of the method and the full data available from ConSurf. Publication Abstract from PubMedThe Escherichia coli chromosomal relBE operon encodes a toxin-antitoxin system, which is autoregulated by its protein products, RelB and RelE. RelB acts as a transcriptional repressor and RelE functions as a cofactor to enhance the repressor activity of RelB. Here, we present the NMR-derived structure of a RelB dimer and show that a RelB dimer recognizes a hexad repeat in the palindromic operator region through a ribbon-helix-helix motif. Our biochemical data show that two weakly associated RelB dimers bind to the adjacent repeats in the 3'-site of the operator (O(R)) at a moderate affinity (K(d), approximately 10(-5) M). However, in the presence of RelE, a RelB tetramer binds two distinct binding sites within the operator region, each with an enhanced affinity (K(d), approximately 10(-6) M for the low-affinity site, O(L), and 10(-8) M for the high-affinity site, O(R)). We propose that the enhanced affinity for the operator element is mediated by a cooperative DNA binding by a pair of RelB dimers and that the interaction between RelB dimers is strongly augmented by the presence of the cognate toxin RelE.
