Citation | Journal: Mol Cell / Year: 2022 Title: Structural basis of activation of the tumor suppressor protein neurofibromin.

The NF1 gene product, neurofibromin, is a GTPase-activating protein and acts as a tumor suppressor by negatively regulating the small GTPase, Ras. However, structural insights into neurofibromin activation remain incompletely defined. Here, we provide cryoelectron microscopy (cryo-EM) structures that reveal an extended neurofibromin homodimer in two functional states: an auto-inhibited state with occluded Ras-binding site and an asymmetric open state with an exposed Ras-binding site. Mechanistically, the transition to the active conformation is stimulated by nucleotide binding, which releases a lock that tethers the catalytic domain to an extended helical repeat scaffold in the occluded state. Structure-guided mutational analysis supports functional relevance of allosteric control. Disease-causing mutations are mapped and primarily impact neurofibromin stability. Our findings suggest a role for nucleotides in neurofibromin regulation and may lead to therapeutic modulation of Ras signaling. | ||||||
