- Cd27l & CS74L: N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine amidase
- Ctp1l: Glycosyl hydrolase (lysozyme)
Crystal structure is confusing
24/11/18 6
So what does the mix consist of??

SAXS + mutagenesis clears up oligomeric state
- Wild-type CD27L does
not fit a dimer, nor a tetramer (SASDAL5)
- But C238R mutant fits
a dimer (SASDAM5)
24/11/18 8
C238R is a pure dimer
- OLIGOMER confirms
difference in states between wild-type and C238R

Draxin is partially unfolded

Liu et al. Neuron 2018
The "unfolded-ness" or "random coil" likeness of a biological macromolecule can be qualitatively assessed by means of a Kratky plot. The small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) data of human full length Draxin clearly show the protein is partially unfolded in solution.

Phosphorylation rules adaptor protein binding
Schill & Anderson Biochem. J. 2009 418, 247-260
Two adaptor proteins that work as connectors
- Adaptor proteins connect
clathrin to cell membrane
- Ent1 and Sla2 connect cell
membrane to actin cytoskeleton
- Some ANTH connect to
AP2 (which binds cargo)

Fitting the complex in the blobs
Skruzny et al. Developmental Cell, 2015
Let’s look at the assembly of the complex
yENTH2 forms a PIP2-associated dimer
Compared to IP3- structure, N-terminal helix is oriented differently
- IP3 lacks the aliphatic
tail
- We cannot see the tail
either except for the 1st carbon
- Orientation of lipid is
different also
This makes space for a second ENTH module to bind
Ready to form larger oligomers

Native mass spec used to look at stoichiometry
yENTH/PIP2 needs Sla2 to form larger complex
yENTH/Sla2/PIP2 complex matures in 3 minutes
But human assembly is different
ENTH hexamer alone
How does human epsin/PIP2 look like?
Small angle X-ray scattering on human ENTH1
- Created “filled” dimer
- f yENTH2
- Used 3 copies to fill
hexamer
- Applied P3 symmetry
SAXS dummy model vs construct
And the structure, in solution?

You can mix epsins, complex still forms
- Mixing ENTH1 and
ENTH2 gives complex with 4 ENTH1 and 4 ENTH2 molecules
- Despite 73 %
sequence identity
You can mix species, complex still forms…

Stochastic assembly of adaptors
- PIP2-driven
- ligomerization
- Adaptor recruitment
- Is stochastic
- Depends on available
adaptors
