Citation | Journal: Science / Year: 2019Title: Architecture of human Rag GTPase heterodimers and their complex with mTORC1. Authors: Madhanagopal Anandapadamanaban / Glenn R Masson / Olga Perisic / Alex Berndt / Jonathan Kaufman / Chris M Johnson / Balaji Santhanam / Kacper B Rogala / David M Sabatini / Roger L Williams / ![]() Abstract: The Rag guanosine triphosphatases (GTPases) recruit the master kinase mTORC1 to lysosomes to regulate cell growth and proliferation in response to amino acid availability. The nucleotide state of Rag ...The Rag guanosine triphosphatases (GTPases) recruit the master kinase mTORC1 to lysosomes to regulate cell growth and proliferation in response to amino acid availability. The nucleotide state of Rag heterodimers is critical for their association with mTORC1. Our cryo-electron microscopy structure of RagA/RagC in complex with mTORC1 shows the details of RagA/RagC binding to the RAPTOR subunit of mTORC1 and explains why only the RagA/RagC nucleotide state binds mTORC1. Previous kinetic studies suggested that GTP binding to one Rag locks the heterodimer to prevent GTP binding to the other. Our crystal structures and dynamics of RagA/RagC show the mechanism for this locking and explain how oncogenic hotspot mutations disrupt this process. In contrast to allosteric activation by RHEB, Rag heterodimer binding does not change mTORC1 conformation and activates mTORC1 by targeting it to lysosomes. | ||||||||||||

We performed mTORC1-RagA/C 'pseudo-monomer' focussed classification with signal subtraction and obtained a reconstruction of 6.2 A resolution map. This cryo-EM density corresponded to the mTORC1-RagA/C pseudomonomer, where the previously published structure for apo-mTORC1 (PDB ID 6BCX) and our high-resolution crystal structure of RagA/C (6S6A) were fitted with great confidence from our experimental analysis including Pulldown assays, mutational at per-residue level in the binding interface and HDX-Mass Spectrometry.

This second protomer of mTORC1-RagA/C map was generated by simply aligning the first 3D reconstructed pseudomonomer map onto the mTORC1 dimer consensus C2 map and then obtained the rotation-translation matrix with CHIMERA and then used Maputils program in CCP4i. From the resulting mTORC1-RagA/C dimer map, the model of mTORC1-RagA/C was built by using previously published structure of apo-mTORC1 (PDB ID 6BCX) and our crystal structure of RagA/C was fitted (PDB ID 6S6A, unreleased). The entire mTORC1-RagA/C final model was refined using REFMAC5 program using the restraints from the crystal structure of RagA/C and previously published mTORC1 structure. Side chains were removed before refinement, since these were not evident in the cryo-EM densities. Separate model refinements were performed against single half-maps, and the resulting models were compared with the other half-maps to confirm the absence of overfitting. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
