Thrombopoietin receptor activation: transmembrane helix dimerization, rotation, and allosteric modulation.
We report how rotational variations in transmembrane (TM) helix interactions participate in the activity states of the thrombopoietin receptor (TpoR), a type 1 cytokine receptor that controls the production of blood platelets. We also explore the mechanism of small-molecule agonists that do not mimic the natural ligand. We show, by a combination of cysteine cross-linking, alanine-scanning mutag...
متن کاملThe HAMP Domain Structure Implies Helix Rotation in Transmembrane Signaling
HAMP domains connect extracellular sensory with intracellular signaling domains in over 7500 proteins, including histidine kinases, adenylyl cyclases, chemotaxis receptors, and phosphatases. The solution structure of an archaeal HAMP domain shows a homodimeric, four-helical, parallel coiled coil with unusual interhelical packing, related to the canonical packing by rotation of the helices. This...
متن کاملTryptophan at the transmembrane-cytosolic junction modulates thrombopoietin receptor dimerization and activation.
Dimerization of single-pass membrane receptors is essential for activation. In the human thrombopoietin receptor (TpoR), a unique amphipathic RWQFP motif separates the transmembrane (TM) and intracellular domains. Using a combination of mutagenesis, spectroscopy, and biochemical assays, we show that W515 of this motif impairs dimerization of the upstream TpoR TM helix. TpoR is unusual in that a...
