Abstract:
The structure of the MarR-family transcription factor NMB1585 from Neisseria meningitidis has been solved using data extending to a resolution of 2.1 A. Overall, the dimeric structure resembles those of other MarR proteins, with each subunit comprising a winged helix-turn-helix (wHtH) domain connected to an alpha-helical dimerization domain. The spacing of the recognition helices of the wHtH domain indicates that NMB1585 is pre-configured for DNA binding, with a putative inducer pocket that is largely occluded by the side chains of two aromatic residues (Tyr29 and Trp53). NMB1585 was shown to bind to its own promoter region in a gel-shift assay, indicating that the protein acts as an auto-repressor.

Evidence demonstrating that the participating proteins are unstructured prior to the interaction and their folding is coupled to binding. Representative domain in related structures: Winged helix DNA-binding domain (MarR type II) transcriptional regulator
Evidence level: Indirect evidence
Evidence coverage: Only some parts of the structure participates in mutual synergistic folding.
Complex Evidence:
Thermal unfolding measured with circular dichroism of the MarR family protein, HucR, suggested two-state model of unfolding (PMID:15448166). Also, a decrease in pH induced a molten globule-like state, where the protein remained in dimeric form (PMID:27282811). Helices 1, 2, 6 and 7 form the dimerization subdomain, they form an apparently stable dimer interface that preconfigures the DNA recognition HTH subdomain for DNA binding (PMID:16750221).

Surface and contacts features:
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).
