In vitro characterization of the full-length human dynein-1 cargo adaptor BicD2

Open access

Published version of a preprint

Abstract

Cargo adaptors are crucial in coupling motor proteins with their respective cargos and regulatory proteins. BicD2 is a prominent example within the cargo adaptor family. BicD2 is able to recruit the microtubule motor dynein to RNA, viral particles, and nuclei. The BicD2-mediated interaction between the nucleus and dynein is implicated in mitosis, interkinetic nuclear migration (INM) in radial glial progenitor cells, and neuron precursor migration during embryonic neocortex development. In vitro studies involving full-length cargo adaptors are difficult to perform due to the hydrophobic character, low-expression levels, and intrinsic flexibility of cargo adaptors. Here, we report the recombinant production of full-length human BicD2 and confirm its biochemical activity by interaction studies with RanBP2. We also describe pH-dependent conformational changes of BicD2 using cryoelectron microscopy (cryo-EM), template-free structure predictions, and biophysical tools. Our results will help define the biochemical parameters for the in vitro reconstitution of higher-order BicD2 protein complexes.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
