Dynamic structure of the full-length scaffolding protein NHERF1 influences signaling complex assembly
Abstract
The Na+/H+ exchange regulatory cofactor 1 (NHERF1) protein modulates the assembly and intracellular trafficking of several transmembrane G protein–coupled receptors (GPCRs) and ion transport proteins with the membrane–cytoskeleton adapter protein ezrin. We applied in this report solution NMR and small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) to structurally characterize full-length NHERF1 and disease-associated variants that are implicated in impaired phosphate homeostasis. Using NMR, we mapped the modular architecture of NHERF1, which is composed of two structurally-independent PDZ domains that are connected by a flexible, disordered linker. We observed that the ultra-long and disordered C-terminal tail of NHERF1 has a type 1 PDZ-binding motif that interacts weakly with the proximal, second PDZ domain to form a dynamically autoinhibited structure. Using ensemble-optimized analysis of SANS data, we extracted the molecular size distribution of structures from the extensive conformational space sampled by the flexible chain. Our results revealed that NHERF1 is a diffuse ensemble of variable PDZ domain configurations and a disordered C-terminal tail. The joint NMR/SANS data analyses of three disease variants (L110V, R153Q, and E225K) revealed significant differences in the local PDZ domain structures and in the global conformations compared with the WT protein. Furthermore, we show that the substitutions affect the affinity andmore »
