GGA3 VHS domain complexed with C-terminal peptide from cation-independent mannose 6-phosphate receptor
OverviewOverview
Specific sorting signals direct transmembrane proteins to the compartments, of the endosomal-lysosomal system. Acidic-cluster-dileucine signals, present within the cytoplasmic tails of sorting receptors, such as the, cation-independent and cation-dependent mannose-6-phosphate receptors, are, recognized by the GGA (Golgi-localized, gamma-ear-containing, ADP-ribosylation-factor-binding) proteins. The VHS (Vps27p, Hrs and STAM), domains of the GGA proteins are responsible for the highly specific, recognition of these acidic-cluster-dileucine signals. Here we report the, structures of the VHS domain of human GGA3 complexed with signals from, both mannose-6-phosphate receptors. The signals bind in an extended, conformation to helices 6 and 8 of the VHS domain. The structures, highlight an Asp residue separated by two residues from a dileucine, sequence as critical recognition elements. The side chains of the, Asp-X-X-Leu-Leu sequence interact with subsites consisting of one, electropositive and two shallow hydrophobic pockets, respectively. The, rigid spatial alignment of the three binding subsites leads to high, specificity.
