Fungal alkaloid malbrancheamide reorients the lipid binding domain of GRK5.
Journal of Biomolecular Structure & Dynamics 2024 April 26
G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are the largest group of receptors involved in various types of signaling. GPCR signaling is regulated via receptor phosphorylation by G protein-coupled receptor kinases 5 (GRK5). Calmodulin (CaM), a universal Ca2+ sensor, inhibits receptor phosphorylation by binding to GRK5. However, the inhibitor malbrancheamide (MBC), which binds at CaM C-lobe, allows for receptor phosphorylation. To understand the phosphorylation mechanism by GRK5, we carried out a MD simulation of the CaM/GRK5 complex in the presence and absence of the MBC inhibitor. The lipid binding domain (LBD) of GRK5 adopted different positions in the presence and absence of inhibitor. Furthermore, the inhibitor MBC restricted the movement of the N-lobe tether (NLT) loop, probably blocking the autophosphorylation of GRK5.Communicated by Ramaswamy H. Sarma.
