Structural basis for the unique biological function of small GTPase RHEB.
The small GTPase Rheb displays unique biological and biochemical properties different from other small GTPases and functions as an important mediator between the tumor suppressor proteins TSC1 and TSC2 and the mammalian target of rapamycin to stimulate cell growth. We report here the three-dimensional structures of human Rheb in complexes with GDP, GTP, and GppNHp (5'-(beta,gamma-imide)triphosp...
متن کاملStructural basis for recruitment of RILP by small GTPase Rab7.
Rab7 regulates vesicle traffic from early to late endosomes, and from late endosomes to lysosomes. The crystal structure of Rab7-GTP in complex with the Rab7 binding domain of RILP reveals that Rab7 interacts with RILP specifically via two distinct areas, with the first one involving the switch and interswitch regions and the second one consisting of RabSF1 and RabSF4. Disruption of these inter...
متن کاملStructural basis for the function of a small GTPase RsgA on the 30S ribosomal subunit maturation revealed by cryoelectron microscopy.
The bacterial RsgA, a circularly permutated GTPase, whose GTPase activity is dependent on the 30S ribosomal subunit, is a late-stage ribosome biogenesis factor involved in the 30S subunit maturation. The role of RsgA is to release another 30S biogenesis factor, RbfA, from the mature 30S subunit in a GTP-dependent manner. Using cryoelectron microscopy, we have determined the structure of the 30S...
متن کاملStructural insights into the function of a unique tandem GTPase EngA in bacterial ribosome assembly
Many ribosome-interacting GTPases, with proposed functions in ribosome biogenesis, are also implicated in the cellular regulatory coupling between ribosome assembly process and various growth control pathways. EngA is an essential GTPase in bacteria, and intriguingly, it contains two consecutive GTPase domains (GD), being one-of-a-kind among all known GTPases. EngA is required for the 50S subun...
