HAMP domain signal relay mechanism in a sensory rhodopsin-transducer complex.
The phototaxis receptor complex composed of sensory rhodopsin II (SRII) and the transducer subunit HtrII mediates photorepellent responses in haloarchaea. Light-activated SRII transmits a signal through two HAMP switch domains (HAMP1 and HAMP2) in HtrII that bridge the photoreceptive membrane domain of the complex and the cytoplasmic output kinase-modulating domain. HAMP domains, widespread sig...
متن کاملMolecular modeling of the HAMP domain of sensory rhodopsin II transducer from Natronomonas pharaonis
The halobacterial transducer of sensory rhodopsin II (HtrII) is a photosignal transducer associated with phototaxis in extreme halophiles. The HAMP domain, a linker domain in HtrII, is considered to play an important role in transferring the signal from the membrane to the cytoplasmic region, although its structure in the complex remains undetermined. To establish the structural basis for under...
متن کاملTwo Distinct States of the HAMP Domain from Sensory Rhodopsin Transducer Observed in Unbiased Molecular Dynamics Simulations
HAMP domain is a ubiquitous module of bacterial and archaeal two-component signaling systems. Considerable progress has been made recently in studies of its structure and conformational changes. However, the mechanism of signal transduction through the HAMP domain is not clear. It remains a question whether all the HAMPs have the same mechanism of action and what are the differences between the...
متن کاملNew Insights on Signal Propagation by Sensory Rhodopsin II/Transducer Complex
The complex of two membrane proteins, sensory rhodopsin II (NpSRII) with its cognate transducer (NpHtrII), mediates negative phototaxis in halobacteria N. pharaonis. Upon light activation NpSRII triggers a signal transduction chain homologous to the two-component system in eubacterial chemotaxis. Here we report on crystal structures of the ground and active M-state of the complex in the space g...
متن کاملThe HAMP Signal Relay Domain Adopts Multiple Conformational States through Collective Piston and Tilt Motions
The HAMP domain is a linker region in prokaryotic sensor proteins and relays input signals to the transmitter domain and vice versa. Functional as a dimer, the structure of HAMP shows a parallel coiled-coil motif comprising four helices. To date, it is unclear how HAMP can relay signals from one domain to another, although several models exist. In this work, we use molecular simulation to test ...
