structure of the proteolytic domain of human mitochondrial Lon at 2 A resolution. There are six protomers in the asymmetric unit, four arranged as two dimers. The intersubunit interactions within the two dimers are similar to those between adjacent subunits of the hexameric ring of Escherichia coli Lon. The active site contains a 310 helix attached to the N-terminal end of alpha-helix 2, which leads to the insertion of Asp852 into the active site. Structural considerations make it likely that this conformation is proteolytically inactive. A mechanism relating the formation of Lon oligomers with a conformational shift in the active site region coupled to a movement of a loop in the oligomer interface may convert the proteolytically inactive form seen here to the active one in the Escherichia coli hexamer | Homo sapiens |
