Defects in PDCD10 are the cause of cerebral cavernous malformations type 3 (CCM3) [MIM:603285. Cerebral cavernous malformations (CCMs) are congenital vascular anomalies of the central nervous system that can result in hemorrhagic stroke, seizures, recurrent headaches, and focal neurologic deficits. CCMs have an incidence of 0.1%-0.5% in the general population and usually present clinically during the 3rd to 5th decade of life. The lesions are characterized by grossly enlarged blood vessels consisting of a single layer of endothelium and without any intervening neural tissue, ranging in diameter from a few millimeters to several centimeters. Function PDC10_HUMAN Promotes cell proliferation. Modulates apoptotic pathways. Increases mitogen-activated protein kinase activity and MST4 activity. Important for cell migration, and for normal structure and assembly of the Golgi complex. Important for KDR/VEGFR2 signaling. Increases the stability of KDR/VEGFR2 and prevents its breakdown. Required for normal cardiovascular development. Required for normal angiogenesis, vasculogenesis and hematopoiesis during embryonic development (By similarity). Publication Abstract from PubMed Mutation of CCM3 causes cerebral cavernous malformations of the vasculature, leading to focal neurological deficits, seizures, and hemorrhagic stroke. CCM3 can heterodimerize with GCKIII kinases (MST3, MST4, and STK25) to regulate cardiovascular development. Here, we provide direct experimental evidence to prove that CCM3 heterodimerizes with GCKIII in a manner structurally resembling the CCM3 homodimerization. Structural comparison revealed the mechanism and critical residues that drive CCM3-GCKIII heterodimerization versus homodimerization. A flexible linker was identified for CCM3, which mediates a large-scale conformational rotation of the FAT domain relative to the dimerization domain. The conformational flipover of FAT domain removes steric locking in the CCM3 homodimer and allows its disassembly and subsequent heterodimerization with GCKIII. CCM3 forms a stable complex with MST4 in vivo to promote cell proliferation and migration synergistically in a manner dependent on MST4 kinase activity. Collectively, our work offers a structural basis for further functional study.
