Asymmetric horseshoe-like assembly of peroxisomal Yeast Oxalyl-CoA synthetase

Open access

Preprint — published as 10.1515/hsz-2022-0273

Abstract

Oxalyl-CoA synthetase from Saccharomyces cerevisiae is one of the most abundant peroxisomal protein in yeast and hence has become a model to study peroxisomal translocation. It contains a C-terminal Peroxisome Targeting Signal 1, which however is partly dispensable, suggesting additional receptor bindings sites. To unravel any additional features that may contribute to its capacity to be recognized as peroxisomal target, we determined its assembly and overall architecture by an integrated structural biology approach, including X-ray crystallography, single particle cryo-electron microscopy and small angle X-ray scattering. Surprisingly, it assembles into mixture of concentration-dependent dimers, tetramers and hexamers by dimer self-association. Hexameric particles form an unprecedented asymmetric horseshoe-like arrangement, which considerably differs from symmetric hexameric assembly found in many other protein structures. A single mutation within the self-association interface is sufficient to abolish any higher-level oligomerization, resulting in homogenous dimeric assembly. The small C-terminal domain of yeast Oxalyl-CoA synthetase is connected by a partly flexible hinge with the large N-terminal domain, which provides the sole basis for oligomeric assembly. Our data provide a basis to mechanistically study peroxisomal translocation of this target.

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.
