Abstract:

The protein kinase C and casein kinase 2 substrates in neurons (PACSINs) represent a subfamily of membrane-binding proteins characterized by an amino-terminal Bin-Amphiphysin-Rvs (F-BAR) domain. PACSINs link membrane trafficking with actin dynamics and regulate the localization of distinct cargo molecules. The F-BAR domain forms a dimer essential for lipid binding. We have obtained crystals of authentic murine PACSIN 2 that contain an ordered F-BAR domain, indicating that additional domains are flexibly connected to F-BAR. The structure shares similarity to other BAR domains and exhibits special features unique to PACSINs. These include the uneven distribution of charged residues on the concave molecular surface and a so-called wedge loop that is driven into the membrane upon binding of PACSIN. The murine PACSIN 2 F-BAR domain requires dimerization for sensing of curved membranes, and the present structure also provides a mechanism for higher-order oligomer formation. Importantly, comparison of murine with human and Drosophila PACSIN 2 F-BAR domains reveals stark differences in the orientation of distal helical segments leading to a wider crescent shape of murine PACSIN 2. We define hinge residues for these movements that may help PACSINs sense and concomitantly reinforce membrane curvature.

Evidence Evidence demonstrating that the participating proteins are unstructured prior to the interaction and their folding is coupled to binding.

Representative domain in related structures: F-BAR domain

Evidence level: Direct evidence

Evidence coverage: The full structure participates in mutual synergistic folding.

Complex Evidence:

F-BAR domains form an intimately packed six-helix bundle and bury a large, hydrophobic dimerization interface. They exist as dimers in solution, with no evidence for monomeric forms (PMID:17512409). Other BAR domains (N-BAR) displayed a two-state equilibrium unfolding (PMID:26368922, PMID:34423187).

Surface and contacts features:

Related Structure(s) Structures from the PDB that contain the same number of proteins, and the proteins from the two structures show a sufficient degree of pairwise similarity, i.e. they belong to the same UniRef90 cluster (the full proteins exhibit at least 90% sequence identity) and convey roughly the same region to their respective interactions (the two regions from the two proteins share a minimum of 70% overlap).
