![]() | ![]() Title: Dynamic fibrillar assembly of αB-crystallin induced by perturbation of the conserved NT-IXI motif resolved by cryo-EM. Authors: Russell McFarland / Rozhan Noroozi / Adam P Miller / Steve L Reichow / ![]() Abstract: αB-crystallin is an archetypical member of the small heat shock proteins (sHSPs) vital for cellular proteostasis and mitigating protein misfolding diseases. Gaining insights into the principles ...αB-crystallin is an archetypical member of the small heat shock proteins (sHSPs) vital for cellular proteostasis and mitigating protein misfolding diseases. Gaining insights into the principles defining their molecular organization and chaperone function have been hindered by intrinsic dynamic properties and limited high-resolution structural analysis. To disentangle the mechanistic underpinnings of these dynamical properties, we ablate a conserved IXI-motif located within the N-terminal (NT) domain of human αB-crystallin implicated in subunit exchange dynamics and client sequestration. This results in a profound structural transformation, from highly polydispersed caged-like native assemblies into an elongated fibril state amenable to high-resolution cryo-EM analysis. The reversible nature of this variant facilitates interrogation of functional effects due to perturbation of the NT-IXI motif in both the native-like oligomer and fibril states. Together, our investigations unveil several features thought to be key mechanistic attributes to sHSPs and point to a critical significance of the NT-IXI motif in αB-crystallin assembly, polydispersity, and chaperone activity. | |||||||||||||||

We cannot clearly identify which protomer the bound peptide corresponds to though it is believed to play a key role in the oligomerization. We have opted to include the peptide as part of Chain A with numbering based on our best approximation from related protein species and mass spec data published by others. The residues are labelled as unknown to reflect our low confidence of the identity of the peptide. Source: (gene. exp.) ![]() ![]() ![]() |
