Novel features in the structure of P-glycoprotein (ABCB1) in the post-hydrolytic state as determined at 7.9Å resolution

Abstract: P-glycoprotein (ABCB1) is a ATP-binding cassette transporter that plays an important role in the removal of drugs and xenobiotic compounds from the cell.It is also associated with multi-drug resistance in cancer. Here we report novel features of the cryo-EM-derived structure of P-glycoprotein in the posthydrolytic state: The cytosolic nucleotide-binding domains (NBDs) are separated despite ADP remaining bound to the NBDs. Gaps in the TMDs that connect to the inner hydrophilic cavity are back-filled by detergen… Show more

“…When reporting only to the cryo-EM structures, both inward murine (PDB ID: 6GDI) and outward human (PDB ID: 6C0V) were found to have both TM4/TM10 modelled as straight helices. Furthermore, while Thongin and co-workers identified electron densities compatible with “detergent head-groups from the annular detergent micelle (…) close to two regions predicted to delineate two pseudo-symmetry-related drug-binding sites” but no TM4/TM10 kink [5], other authors reported for the outward-facing human structure that the “continuity of these helices is important to completely close the intracellular gate upon NBD dimerization, avoiding potential leakage in the outward-facing state” [2]. So, what could be the underlying reason for such a difference?…”
