Crystal structure of tomato inhibitor-II in a ternary complex with subtilisin Carlsberg
OverviewOverview
Multidomain proteinase inhibitors play critical roles in the defense of, plants against predation by a wide range of pests. Despite a wealth of, structural information on proteinase-single domain inhibitor interactions, the structural basis of inhibition by multidomain proteinase inhibitors, remains poorly understood. Here we report the 2.5-A resolution crystal, structure of the two-headed tomato inhibitor-II (TI-II) in complex with, two molecules of subtilisin Carlsberg; it reveals how a multidomain, inhibitor from the Potato II family of proteinase inhibitors can bind to, and simultaneously inhibit two enzyme molecules within a single ternary, complex. The N terminus of TI-II initiates the folding of Domain I (Lys-1, to Cys-15 and Pro-84 to Met-123) and then completes Domain II (Ile-26 to, Pro-74) before coming back to complete the rest of Domain I (Pro-84 to, Met-123). The two domains of TI-II adopt a similar fold and are arranged, in an extended configuration that presents two reactive site loops at the, opposite ends of the inhibitor molecule. Each subtilisin molecule, interacts with a reactive site loop of TI-II through the standard, canonical binding mode. Remarkably, a significant distortion of the active, site of subtilisin is induced by the presence of phenylalanine in the P1, position of reactive site loop II of TI-II. The structure of the, TI-II.(subtilisin)2 complex provides a molecular framework for, understanding how multiple inhibitory domains in a single Potato II type, proteinase inhibitor molecule from the Potato II family act to inhibit, proteolytic enzymes.
