Abstract

The target of rapamycin (TOR) is a large (281 kDa) conserved Ser/Thr protein kinase that functions as a central controller of cell growth. TOR assembles into two distinct multiprotein complexes: TORC1 and TORC2. A defining feature of TORC1 is the interaction of TOR with KOG1 (Raptor in mammals) and its sensitivity to a rapamycin-FKBP12 complex. Here, we have reconstructed in three dimensions the 25 A resolution structures of endogenous budding yeast TOR1 and a TOR-KOG1 complex, using electron microscopy. TOR features distinctive N-terminal HEAT repeats that form a curved tubular-shaped domain that associates with the C-terminal WD40 repeat domain of KOG1. The N terminus of KOG1 is in proximity to the TOR kinase domain, likely functioning to bring substrates into the vicinity of the catalytic region. A model is proposed for the molecular architecture of the TOR-KOG1 complex explaining its sensitivity to rapamycin.

摘要

雷帕霉素靶蛋白(TOR)是一种大型(281 kDa)保守的丝氨酸/苏氨酸蛋白激酶,作为细胞生长的中央控制器发挥作用。TOR组装成两种不同的多蛋白复合物:TORC1和TORC2。TORC1的一个决定性特征是TOR与KOG1(哺乳动物中的Raptor)的相互作用及其对雷帕霉素 - FKBP12复合物的敏感性。在这里,我们使用电子显微镜在三维空间中重建了内源性出芽酵母TOR1和TOR - KOG1复合物的25埃分辨率结构。TOR具有独特的N端HEAT重复序列,形成一个弯曲的管状结构域,与KOG1的C端WD40重复结构域相关联。KOG1的N端靠近TOR激酶结构域,可能起到将底物带到催化区域附近的作用。我们提出了一个TOR - KOG1复合物分子结构的模型,解释了其对雷帕霉素的敏感性。
