Abstract

Zusatzinfos

MPV17 is an integral inner mitochondrial membrane protein, whose loss-of-function is linked to the hepatocerebral form of the mitochondrial-DNA-depletion syndrome, leading to a tissue-specific reduction of mitochondrial DNA and organ failure in infants. Several disease-causing mutations in MPV17 have been identified and earlier studies with reconstituted protein suggest that MPV17 forms a high conductivity channel in the membrane. However, the molecular and structural basis of the MPV17 functionality remain only poorly understood. In order to make MPV17 accessible to high-resolution structural studies, we here present an efficient protocol for its high-level production in E. coli and refolding into detergent micelles. Using biophysical and NMR methods, we show that refolded MPV17 in detergent micelles adopts a compact structure consisting of six membrane-embedded α-helices. Furthermore, we demonstrate that MPV17 forms oligomers in a lipid bilayer that are further stabilized by disulfide-bridges. In line with these findings, MPV17 could only be inserted into lipid nanodiscs of 8-12 nm in diameter if intrinsic cysteines were either removed by mutagenesis or blocked by chemical modification. Using this nanodisc reconstitution approach, we could show that disease-linked mutations in MPV17 abolish its oligomerization properties in the membrane. These data suggest that, induced by oxidative stress, MPV17 can alter its oligomeric state from a properly folded monomer to a disulfide-stabilized oligomeric pore which might be required for the transport of metabolic DNA precursors into the mitochondrial matrix to compensate for the damage caused by reactive oxygen species.
