PubMed Abstract: Vesicle-inducing protein in plastids 1 (Vipp1) is critical for thylakoid membrane biogenesis and maintenance. Although Vipp1 has recently been identified as a member of the endosomal sorting complexes required for transport III superfamily, it is still unknown how Vipp1 remodels membranes. Here, we present cryo-electron microscopy structures of Synechocystis Vipp1 interacting with membranes: seven structures of helical and stacked-ring assemblies at 5-7-Å resolution engulfing membranes and three carpet structures covering lipid vesicles at ~20-Å resolution using subtomogram averaging. By analyzing ten structures of N-terminally truncated Vipp1, we show that helix α0 is essential for membrane tubulation and forms the membrane-anchoring domain of Vipp1. Lastly, using a conformation-restrained Vipp1 mutant, we reduced the structural plasticity of Vipp1 and determined two structures of Vipp1 at 3.0-Å resolution, resolving the molecular details of membrane-anchoring and intersubunit contacts of helix α0. Our data reveal membrane curvature-dependent structural transitions from carpets to rings and rods, some of which are capable of inducing and/or stabilizing high local membrane curvature triggering membrane fusion.
