Cryo-EM structure and dynamics of the green-light absorbing proteorhodopsin

Abstract: The green-light absorbing proteorhodopsin (GPR) is the archetype of bacterial light-driven proton pumps. Here, we present the 2.9 Å cryo-EM structure of pentameric GPR, resolving important residues of the proton translocation pathway and the oligomerization interface. Superposition with the structure of a close GPR homolog and molecular dynamics simulations reveal conformational variations, which regulate the solvent access to the intra- and extracellular half channels harbouring the primary proton donor E109 … Show more

“…22−24 In addition, the recent cryo-EM structure reported the pentamer structure for GPR. 25 Thus, a similar oligomeric structure is likely for VcBPR at pH 7.0. When the pH is lowered, the peak at the elution volume of 0.56 mL is reduced and shifting to higher elution volumes.…”

“…The SEC profile of VcBPR at pH 7.0 shows a single peak at the elution volume of 0.56 mL (Figure ). Atomic force microscopy (AFM) and X-ray crystallography of PRs reported pentamer or hexamer structure. In addition, the recent cryo-EM structure reported the pentamer structure for GPR . Thus, a similar oligomeric structure is likely for VcBPR at pH 7.0.…”

“…[39] Earlier studies have relied on homology models based on the amino acid sequence of the Monterey Bay GPR (PDB code: 2L6X) using bacteriorhodopsin as a template. [40][41][42][43] However, homology models can often impede predictions due to the sensitivity of the chromophore to small displacements of the surrounding side chains. [44][45][46] Moreover, the uncertainty about the protonation state of the D97 counterion in GPR (pKa value of ~7) can alter the result of the simulation.…”
