The rate-limiting step in apoptosis is mitochondrial poration by the effector B cell lymphoma 2 (BCL-2) family proteins BAK and BAX, which are activated by initiator BCL-2 homology 3 (BH3)-only proteins (e.g., BIM) and inhibited by guardian BCL-2 family proteins (e.g., MCL-1). We integrated structural, biochemical, and pharmacological approaches to characterize the human prosurvival MCL-1:BAK complex assembled from their BCL-2 globular core domains. We reveal a canonical interaction with BAK BH3 bound to the hydrophobic groove of MCL-1 and disordered and highly dynamic BAK regions outside the complex interface. We predict similar conformations of activated effectors in complex with other guardians or effectors. The MCL-1:BAK complex is a major cancer drug target. We show that MCL-1 inhibitors are inefficient in neutralizing the MCL-1:BAK complex, requiring high doses to initiate apoptosis. Our study underscores the need to design superior clinical candidate MCL-1 inhibitors. |
