ELM candidate motifs

ELM annotation process is a tedious and time-consuming process involving critical reading of primary and secondary literature, finding motif instances, generating multiple sequence alignments and more. In order not to loose track of possible annotations, we keep the following list of candidate motifs.
We invite researchers to send us their feedback and expert opinion on these classes and to contribute novel motif classes that will be added to the candidate page and ultimately be turned into full ELM classes. Minimum requirements are at least one literature reference as well as a short description. In addition, a draft regular expression or a 3D structure showing the relevant interaction would also be helpful.

Currently 234 candidates need annotation: (Add a new candidate)

The C-terminal helical motif that mediates binding to the FERM domain of Radixin, is found in NHERF-1 and NHERF-2. Binds different sites to PSGL-1, NEP, CD44 and CD43. Nice mutational analysis in the paper. Seems quite conserved in vertebrates. First two residues Met and Asp don't make direct contact. Trp is buried deep in the pocket, and Phe engaged in the second pocket with stacking interactions. Lys seems important in the +2 and +3 sites after conserved Trp and makes H-bonds with E244, additional interaction with F240 (2D10). C-terminus main chain carboxyl from Leu forms H-bond with T214 and N210 from the binding partner. switches.elm:SWTI000333 overlaps with the motif. first draft

Some CRM1-binding nuclear export motifs bind in the reverse orientation to the usual motifs. Reverse NESes include Rio4 and CPEB4 The known reverse motifs (Class 2) bind mainly as an alpha helix. There are four or five hydrophobic residues entering a hydrophobic groove of CRM1. The first two hydrophobic residues must have exact #x# spacing for reverse orientation. By contrast, for the forward orientation Class 1 motifs, the last two hydrophobic residues must have the exact #x# spacing. Class 3 forward motifs are helical and are shifted with respect to Class 1 and do not need to occupy one of the hydrophobic pockets. first draft

The Lys at the C-terminal position is conserved in all Exotoxin As from P. aeruginosa as well as in Cholix toxin from V. cholerae.

The position -3, counting from the C-terminal, in Exotoxin A from P. aeruginosa has a conserved Asp while all the Cholix toxins have a Glu.

An exotoxin from Aeromonas hydrophila does not contain the same Lys at the last position (resembling the canonical KDEL motif) but half of the sequences (11 out of 26) have an Asp at the position -2 counting from the C-terminal.

Not clear that this can be annotated as cellular KDEL motifs are not seen to tolerate c-terminal extensions.

Ime2 is a yeast meiotic kinase. Although related to the CDK group, it does not recognise SPxK sites. Instead, it recognises RPxS/T sites. Substrates include CDH1.

The related mammalian kinases are ICK/MRK, MAK and MOK. ICK has also been shown to preferentially phosphorylate RPxS/T sites. These three kinases are required for proper ciliary function.
Mutations in ICK cause Endocrine-cerebro-osteodysplasia ECO). Mutations in MAK cause retinitis pigmentosa 62 (RP62). first draft

The KIKL motif is found in proteins such as CHD4, SMCA4 and NSD3 that bind to the small three-helix ET (or NET) domain of BET proteins. This interaction creates a two-stranded sheet by beta-augmentation to a loop region. Most of the KIKL-containing proteins are themselves part of protein complexes which usually have chromatin remodelling functions. Viral proteins such as KSHV LANA and MLV-Integrase also have KIKL motifs. ET is homologous to the AHD domain of AF9 which also binds a linear motif by beta-augmentatioN (23260655). first draft

LIG_14-3-3_5 IRLNNAIWRAWY Ge,2012,Sato,2016
A newly identified 14-3-3 binding motif identified in ChREBP protein. Unlike other 14-3-3 binding proteins, here 14-3-3 binds to a non-phosphorylated site in ChREBP with high affinity and the interaction can be activated by a free sulfate or phosphate molecules provided by the metabolites like AMP or ketone bodies.AMP binds directly to ChREBP and allosterically induces conformational changes resulting in increased affinity of ChREBP for 14-3-3and stabilization of the heterodimer in the cytoplasm of hepatocytes thus inhibiting fat synthesis during periods of ketosis. The main interaction interaction interface is between the α2 helix of the ChREBP and the positively charged patch containing a Arg-Arg-Tyr triad on the binding groove on 14-3-3. Motif is highly conserved in mammals. first draft

This motif is present in several bacterial toxins, usually in 5 to 50 repeats, and are highly common in effector proteins from the type one secretion system (T1SS) (19015266).

In CyaA from Bordetella pertussis, the motifs are located in a predominantly disordered region at the C-terminal of the protein. Under nanomolar concentrations of Ca2+ (as in the bacterial cytosol) the C-terminal region lacks a terciary and secondary structures. After CyaA is transported through the T1SS, the protein gets in contact with Ca2+ which is sequestered and induces the folding of CyaA into β-Rolls Ratchets (27058787).

The motif has also been described in extracellular lipase from Serratia marcescens (2QUA; 2QUB), Serralysin from Pseudomonas aeruginosa, triacylglycerol lipase from P. aeruginosa (1EX9), Hemolysin from Escherichia coli, triacylglycerol lipase from Brukholderia cepacia (1OIL) and in the fungal lipase from Thermomyces lanuginosus (1EIN; 1DT3) (17728256; 8253063).

The crystal structure of sca4-VBS-C with vinculin (3TJ6) shows that the position of the alpha-helix alpha1 in the Vh1 domain of vinculin has a dramatic movement compared to its corresponding position in other structures containing non-kinked helices (Park,2011), therefore exemplifying a new variant of a Vh1 binding-motif. first draft

LIG_IRF3_1 [DEN]L.I(S)|[DE]{2}.[DE]L.IS Zhao,2016 Structural and functional studies about the pLxIS motif in cellular and viral proteins. Structures of STING (5JEJ), MAVS (5JEK), TRIF (5JEK) and NSP1 (5JEO; 5JER) with IRF-3. Structure of the IRF-3 dimer (5JEM).
Liu,2015 Phosphorylation of the pLxIS motif.
Barro,2005 The C-terminal region of NSP1 binds IRF-3 and mediates its degradation.

The recognition of pathogen-associated molecular patters (PAMPs) involves different pathways that can trigger convergent antimicrobial responses. Microbial double-stranded (ds)DNA in the cytosol is sensed by cGAS whcih produces the second messenger cGAMP, cGAMP binds to the adaptor protein STING which is located at the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) surface. Viral dsRNA is sensed in the cytosol by RLRs which activates the adaptor protein MAVS which is located at the mitochondria surface. Membrane anchored toll-like receptors (TLRs) 3 and 4, which recognize viral dsRNA and bacterial LPS, respectively, when activated recruit the adaptor protein TRIF. The three adaptor proteins STING, MAVS and TRIG contain a conserved motif previously refered as pLxIS that is phosphorylated by TBK1 or IKKepsilon (Liu,2015). Once phosphorylated, it binds to the transcription factor IRF-3 resulting in TBK1-dependent phosphorylation of an additional pLxIS motif in IRF-3. Phosphorylated IRF-3 forms a dimer that activates the protein (Zhao,2016). IRF-3 dimer translocates to the nucleus and positively regulates the trasncription of IFN-beta (Honda,2006).

Interestingly, rotavirus is able to escape innate immune recognition by interfering with the IRF-3-dependent pathway. The rotavirus E3 ubiquitin ligase nonstructural protein 1 (NSP1) also contains the pLxIS motif which binds to the same binding region in IRF-3 in an unphosphorylated manner preventing its activation and promoting its degradation.
In STING, the Pro at position -1 is conserved in mamals and reptiles. Leu is present in birds, opossum has a Thr at position +5.

In MAVS, the motif is only conserved in mammals. Birds and fish do not have it. Tasmania devil has RLLIS. Ornithorhynchus has RLDMS and a DLNIS at 280-284. Nestor notabilis (bird) has a DLYIS at 269-273. Dipodomys (kangaroo rat) has a small duplication in the motif: EDLAISPSSSLscsEDLAISPSSSL.

In TRIF, the human instance is NLEIS, which is present in 29 species in the alignment, including four legged mammals, bats and wild ducks. 12 sequences have HL.IS including primates, panda, mus musculus and fish. Other mammals had Ser, Ala, Glu, Val and Lys. Ser at position +5 was conserved in Mammals, reptiles, birds and fish. The lizard Anolis has HLEIS at 344-348. Birds have a Phe at position +2.

In IRF-3, the motif is conserved in Mammals, reptiles, fish. Common marmoset (new world monkey), ginea pig, bats and european polecat have RLQIS. Tetraodon nigroviridis (fish) has SLQIS. The common marmoset, ginea pig, bat and the european polecat have DLLIS at ~227-231. Tetrodon nigrovorans has DLEIS at 209-213.

In NSP1, the phosphorylation is not necessary. Substitution of Ser at position +5 did not abolish the targeting of IRF-3, however it is conserved. L486A (position +2) abolished the activity of NSP1. I488A (position +4) partially impairs the activity of NSP1.

LIG_CRIB_1 I[SG].P..{0,1}.[FA][EKRQ]H..[HT][VT][GSQ] 7493928 First described the Cdc42/Rac interactive binding motif.
9601050 Fragments as short as 75 to 94 of PAK1 still bound to either Cdc42 or Rac. Fragments 75-105 showed binding to Q61L Rac.GTP with Kd=1.9 µM.
9660763 They calculated that the 37 aas long region of WASP (221-257) still bound to Cdc42 with a Kd of 470 nM as measured by titration. Secondary structure was only observed for the longer fragment (W13).
9774440 and 10551809 showed that the substitution of His83 (position +9) and His86 (position +12) for Leu strongly decreased binding of PAK1 with Cdc42.
9774440 PAK1 75 to 132 (which includes the CRIB motif (75-88)) did not bind Cdc42.
22653441 The binding of PAK4 and Cdc42 was demonstrated by anti-tag coimmunoprecipitation.
22362774 The beta-strand is only 5 aas long ("EIIVL"). The correct alignment starts at Ile49 in SopB (Ile12 in PAK6). The Ile in position +1 (the only one conserved) was mutated in SopB and the (22362774) and the binding to Cdc42 got disrupted.
9528787 The Ile present in all Cdc42 binders at position +1 has been mutated for Asn and the affinity decreased 3-fold.
11940652 Ser at position +2 reduces interaction with CDC42. His at position +10 reduces interaction with CDC42.
12586692 His at position +10 reduces interaction with CDC42. His at position +12 reduces interaction with CDC42.
11940652 Mutations in the CRIB motif allows Cdc42-independent kinase activity and signaling ability, indicating the CRIB motif also works in the autoinhibition of Ste20.
10802735 They obtained the NMR structure of rat Pak1 and Cdc42 with overall very low wwPDB validation scores. In general, it does not overlap with any of the other structures of Rho GTPases, for example its RMS distance to Rac3 (2QME) is 3.16.
A linear motif of 14 to 15 residues long mediates the binding of different kinase and non-kinase proteins to the small Rho GTPases Cdc42 and Rac. The motif has been previously described as Cdc42 and Rac-interactive binding (CRIB) motif (7493928).

The p21-activated kinase (PAK) proteins are serine/threonine kinases activated by Cdc42 and Rac. They play roles in cytoskeleton dynamics, cell adhesion, apoptosis and mitosis. They link integrin activation with JNK MAP kinase pathway, phosphorylate and activate MEK1.

PAK orthologs have a well conserved N-terminal region. However, only the positions corresponding to the CRIB motif share conservation among paralogs.

Other unrelated proteins like the actin polymerization regulator WASP and the tyrosine-protein kinase PR2 are also binders of Cdc42 and Ras (9660763; 7493928).

In all these cases the presence of the CRIB motif is necessary for binding, but high affinity is only observed with additional molecular interactions that depend on an extended region C-terminal from the motif (9601050; 9660763).

Several crytallographic and NMR structures have been solved of the interaction of the CRIB motif and either Cdc42 or Rac (1EES; 1E0A; 2OV2; 2ODB; 1CEE; 4MIT; 4JSO; 1NF3; 4DID; 2QME), the comprehensive analysis of these structures show that around 26 amino acids are suficient to keep a static complex structure. The CRIB motif forms a beta aumentation with the small Rho-GTPase.
The bacterial protein SopB from Salmonella enterica binds to GDP-bound Cdc42 with a Kd=6uM +-2uM also creating a beta augmentation. However, the sequence is highly degenerated and is not covered by the current regular expression (22362774).
The putative paralog of PAK in Entamoeba histolytica binds to RacC from E. histolytica. The structure (4MIT) compared to PAK6 bound to Cdc42 (2ODB) shows that the helix present at the C terminal of the crystalized region is irrelevant for the interaction with the Rho GTPase.

LIG_FDF FDF|.DW 19285948, 2WAX, 2WAY, 23851565, 4BRU, 4BRW Motif in regulators of mRNA decapping like Pat1 and Edc3; mediates binding to the RecA2/Helicase_C (PF00271/IPR001650) domain of yeast Dhh1 and human Ddx6 RNA helicases. Edc3 contains the FDF variant, as well as yeast Pat1, while vertebrate Pat1 has the DW variant. Interactions mediated by this motif likely regulates binding of RNA to the helicase. In Edc3 the motif has been described as part of the FDF domain (PF09532/IPR025762), an alpha-helical domain with the conserved FDF sequence at the N-terminal. Structures show that additional binding elements determine the interactions. A helical acidic motif N-terminal to the FDF/DW motif in Pat1 binds to a second pocket on Dhh1, while a helical segment (F[DN]K) located C-terminal of the FDf motif in Edc3 binds yet another pocket on Ddx6/Dhh1. first draft

Repeated semi-conserved motifs with the consensus MELT are found in Kln1/Spc105 and bind to the BUB3 beta-propeller as part of the spindle assembly checkpoint. The motifs are phosphorylated on the Thr residue by Mps1. A structure of the motif in complex with the Bub3 domain has been solved in the yeast system. By sequence alignment, the mammalian MELT repeats might be longer than the yeast ones. The core MELT should be similar though. Backbone interactions extend beyond the core MELT motif: Pro might be excluded from some adjacent positions. first draft

Metacaspases are distantly related to caspases and are found in protozoa, fungi and plants. They are involved in regulation of different cell biological processes, like programmed cell death and development. Contrary to caspases which cleave specific after aspartate, metacaspases cleave specific after arginine and lysine. Depending on their prodomain metacaspases were distinguished into type I and II. Less is known about metacaspases' cleavage motif.
Only 3 metacaspases' substrates were described.
