S components rotate within the membrane to expose their binding pockets alternately to the exterior and the cytoplasm. In contrast to vitamin transporters, metal-specific systems rely on additional proteins with essential but poorly understood functions. CbiN, a membrane protein composed of two transmembrane helices tethered by an extracytoplasmic loop of 37 amino-acid residues represents the auxiliary component that temporarily interacts with the CbiMQO(2) Co2+ transporter. CbiN was previously shown to induce significant Co2+ transport activity in the absence of CbiQO(2) in cells producing the S component CbiM plus CbiN or a Cbi(MN) fusion. Here we analyzed the mode of interaction between the two protein domains. Any deletion in the CbiN loop abolished transport activity. In silico predicted protein-protein contacts between segments of the CbiN loop and loops in CbiM were confirmed by cysteine-scanning mutagenesis and crosslinking. Likewise, an ordered structure of the CbiN loop was observed by electron paramagnetic resonance analysis after site-directed spin labeling. The N-terminal loop of CbiM containing three of four metal ligands was partially immobilized in wild-type Cbi(MN) but completely immobile in inactive variants with CbiN loop deletions. Decreased dynamics of the inactive form was also detected by solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance of isotope-labeled protein in proteoliposomes. In conclusion, CbiM-CbiN loop-loop interactions facilitate metal insertion into the binding pocket. |
