A cation-pi interaction in a transmembrane helix of vacuolar ATPase retains the proton-transporting arginine in a hydrophobic environment.

PubMed Abstract: Vacuolar ATPases are multisubunit protein complexes that are indispensable for acidification and pH homeostasis in a variety of physiological processes in all eukaryotic cells. An arginine residue (Arg) in transmembrane helix 7 (TM7) of subunit a of the yeast ATPase is known to be essential for proton translocation. However, the specific mechanism of its involvement in proton transport remains to be determined. Arginine residues are usually assumed to "snorkel" toward the protein surface when exposed to a hydrophobic environment. Here, using solution NMR spectroscopy, molecular dynamics simulations, and yeast assays, we obtained evidence for the formation of a transient, membrane-embedded cation-π interaction in TM7 between Arg and two highly conserved nearby aromatic residues, Tyr and Trp We propose a mechanism by which the transient, membrane-embedded cation-π complex provides the necessary energy to keep the charged side chain of Arg within the hydrophobic membrane. Such cation-π interactions may define a general mechanism to retain charged amino acids in a hydrophobic membrane environment.
