Superdiffusive motion of membrane-targeting C2 domains.
Membrane-targeting domains play crucial roles in the recruitment of signalling molecules to the plasma membrane. For most peripheral proteins, the protein-to-membrane interaction is transient. After proteins dissociate from the membrane they have been observed to rebind following brief excursions in the bulk solution. Such membrane hops can have broad implications for the efficiency of reaction...
متن کاملThe C1 and C2 domains of protein kinase C are independent membrane targeting modules, with specificity for phosphatidylserine conferred by the C1 domain.
Protein kinase C is specifically activated by binding two membrane lipids: the second messenger, diacylglycerol, and the amino phospholipid, phosphatidylserine. This binding provides the energy to release an autoinhibitory pseudosubstrate from the active site. Interaction with these lipids recruits the enzyme to the membrane by engaging two membrane-targeting modules: the C1 domain (present as ...
متن کاملElectrostatic control of the membrane targeting of C2 domains.
Many proteins involved in signal transduction and vesicle trafficking contain C2 domains whose membrane association is often regulated by calcium. Here, finite-difference Poisson-Boltzmann calculations are used to describe the electrostatic interactions between C2 domains of known structure and phospholipid membranes. The results explain how calcium binding can drive the association of some C2 ...
متن کاملInterplay of C1 and C2 domains of protein kinase C-alpha in its membrane binding and activation.
The regulatory domain of conventional protein kinase C (PKC) contains two membrane-targeting modules, the C2 domain that is responsible for Ca2+-dependent membrane binding of protein, and the C1 domain composed of two cysteine-rich zinc fingers (C1a and C1b) that bind diacylglycerols and phorbol esters. To understand the individual roles and the interplay of the C1 and C2 domains in the membran...
متن کاملSignaling and subcellular targeting by membrane-binding domains.
Protein kinase C homology-1 and -2, FYVE, and pleckstrin homology domains are ubiquitous in eukaryotic signal transduction and membrane-trafficking proteins. These domains regulate subcellular localization and protein function by binding to lipid ligands embedded in cell membranes. Structural and biochemical analysis of these domains has shown that their molecular mechanisms of membrane binding...
