Abstract: | The activity-regulated cytoskeleton-associated protein (Arc) is important for synaptic scaling and the normal function of the brain. Arc interacts with many neuronal postsynaptic proteins, but the mechanistic details of its function have not been fully established. The C-terminal domain of Arc consists of tandem domains, termed the N- and C-lobe. The N-lobe harbours a peptide binding site, able to bind to multiple targets. By measuring the affinity of various peptides towards human Arc, we have refined the specificity determinants of this site. We found two sites in the GKAP repeat region that may bind to Arc and confirmed these interactions by X-ray crystallography. Comparison of the crystal structures of three human Arc-peptide complexes identifies 3 conserved C-H...π interactions at the binding cavity, which explain the sequence specificity of short linear motif binding by Arc. By analysing the structures, we further characterise central residues of the Arc lobe fold, show the effects of peptide binding on protein dynamics, and identify acyl carrier proteins as structures similar to the Arc lobes. We hypothesise that Arc may affect protein-protein interactions and phase separation at the postsynaptic density, affecting protein turnover and re-modelling of the synapse. |
