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.

Cereblon is the E3 ligase adapter inhibited by the teratogenic drug thalidomide. It binds a C-terminal degron comprising the cyclic imides aspartimide and aminoglutarimide. These arise spontaneously by sidechain:peptide bond reaction and cleave the protein chain. Therefore the role of cereblon is to remove gthe damaged proteins. Cereblon is also found in prokaryotes where it presumably plays a similar role.

Park,2011 VBS N and C terminal in sca4 from Rickettsia rickettsii.
Vinculin works as a linker that strengthens the association of Talin and F-Actin at sites of integrin activation allowing stronger actin binding and major stability of the sites of focal adhesion (23719537). Talin contains a small globular head and a long tail containing 63 predicted alpha helices. Apparently, some of these helices can form a tertiary structure when not activated, as shown by NMR experiments (Gingras,2006). After a substantial change in this tertiary structure, 11 out of the 63 helices are able to bind to Vh1 head domain of Vinculin, forming a helix bundle, as demonstrated by SPOT peptide analysis and crystallographic structures (Gingras,2006), the helical motif that allows the binding is referred as Vinculin Binding Site (VBS).

Interestingly, bacterial pathogens like Shigella flexneri and Rickettsia have developed mimic structures that resemble the architecture of the VBSs in Talin with the same biological function and co-localization with Talin that can induce actin polymerization without the need of integrin activation (Izard,2006; Hamiaux,2006; Park,2011).
The current regular expression matches some but not all the peptides that were confirmed as binders in a SPOT peptide analysis (Gingras,2005). In particular, it matches the one helix that has a crystal structure (1ZW2) demonstrating the binding but that it is unexpected to be a real one since it covers the binding site for the F-actin. A crystal structure (1ZVZ) showed that helix having a Met at the +1 position can bind Vh1 from Vinculin but after major changes in the side chains and the orientation of one alpha helix in Vh1. This Met in the +1 position was shown to impair the binding of VBS1 on a SPOT-peptide substitution array. Therefore, the current regular expression do not allows a Met in the +1 position.
Positions +4, +6, +9, +11 and +13 do not allow a Pro based on the SPOT-peptide substitution array. Position +14 allows a Pro when two Asp are present at position -2 and -1.

Okrut,2015 Nck1 contains the C-helix that competes with the C-helix in the VCA segment when WASP is in its autoinhibited state.
WASP and N-WASP proteins are required to initiate actin nucleation by activating actin-related protein (ARP)2/3 complex. WASP/N-WASP contains a GTPase-binding domain (GBD) at the N-terminus and a verprolin-homology, connector-helix, acidic motif (VCA) (also referred to as WCA as the V region is also called WH2) segment at the C-terminus. Under basal conditions the C-helix motif fits in the GBD domain closing the protein and preventing its nucleation promoting function (Kim,2000). Three factors participate in coordination to activate N-WASP in the membrane, a GTPase like CDC42 that binds the GBD domain, an acidic phospholipid like PtdIns(4,5)P2 and a SH3-domain-containing protein (like Nck) that binds to the PxxP motifs located between the GBD and the VCA segments (Abdul-Manan,1999; Rohatgi,2001; Okrut,2015). Nck can get a membrane localization by using its SH2 domain to bind to phosphorylated tyrosine-containing proteins like Nephrin that is a transmembranal protein. The co-localization of Nck and N-WASP allows the C-helix motif located in the linker space of the first and the second SH3 domains to bind to the GBD domain, out competing with the intramolecular C-helix in N-WASP. Additional bindings between N-WASP and Nck can occur due to interactions between the PxxP motifs in N-WASP and the second and third SH3 domains in Nck Okrut,2015.

Interestingly, the effector proteins EspF and EspFU from the human pathogens Enterohaemorrhagic and Enteropathogenic Escherichia coli are able to activate WASP/N-WASP by using a mimic of the C-helix motif that is present in multiple copies, three in the case of EspF and between five and seven for EspFU (Alto,2007; Cheng,2008; Sallee,2008). The motif is conserved in homologous proteins from Citrobacter rodentium, a mouse enteric bacterium. The actin polymerization activating potency is higher in the pathogenic proteins due to a multiple binding of the repeats, increasing the density of activated N-WASP molecules (Sallee,2008).

LIG_IBAR_NPY_1 NPY Campellone,2006 The binding site in Tir to induce EspFU-dependent actin assembly was mapped to a 12 aas region which is necessary and sufficient to recruit EspFU and initiate actin pedestal formation.

Brady,2007 Defined the motif NPY as responsible for pedestal formation when present in a Tir protein (either EHEC or EPEC). Its function is EspFU-dependent.

Weiss,2009 IRSp53 links the enterohemorrhagic E. coli effectors Tir and EspFU for actin pedestal formation.

Vingadassalom,2009 IRTKS links the EHEC actin assembly effectors Tir and EspF(U) during pedestal formation. WASP, EspFU and IRTKS-SH3 domain forms a complex.

de Groot,2011 Got the structure of EHEC Tir and the I-BAR domains of IRSp53 (2YKT). All residues contacting the NPY motif are conserved in IRSp53 and IRTKS.
Some pathogens have developed infection mechanisms that hijack host cell signalling so that they can extend their survival and satisfy their metabolic needs. Enterohemorrhagic Escherichia coli (EHEC) and Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) interfere with the regulation of actin polymerization to ultimately form an actin pedestal that probably increases the contact area between the infected cell and the bacteria.

To do so, two slightly different mechanisms are used by EHEC and EPEC. Initially, the translocated intimin receptor (Tir) is traslocated by the type III secretrion system (T3SS). The Tir protein contains one globular cytoplasmic N-terminal domain that is dispensable for the pedestal formation but regulates its length (Campellone,2006), one central and extracellular domain that mediates binding to the bacterial intimin protein and a C-terminal domain that differs in the different pathovars. EPEC Tir contains a short insertion around Tyr 474 that is phosphorylated by host cell kinases and works as a binding motif (LIG_SH2_SRC) for the SH2 domain in Nck proteins. Nck, recruited to the plasma membrane and in particular close to the bacterial attachment site, activates N-WASP by using its LIG_GBD_Chelix_1 motif to bind to the GBD domain of N-WASP. The VCA regions can, then, activate Arp2/3 and initiate actin polimerization leading to pestestal formation.

EHEC Tir lacks the Nck binding property, instead, it sequesters and activates N-WASP by a ternary complex that includes a second effector protein, EspFU, and the host proteins IRSp53 or IRTKS. EHEC Tir uses the NPY motif located at the C-terminal domain to bind to the I-BAR domain of IRSp53/IRTKS (Campellone,2006; Brady,2007; Weiss,2009; Vingadassalom,2009; de Groot,2011). IRSp53/IRTKS has an SH3 domain that interacts with the multiple LIG_SH3_3 motif in EspFU. EspFU, in addition, has a LIG_GBD_Chelix_1 that mimics the same motif in Nck then converging in the activation of actin polymerization and pedestal formation with EPEC.
Based on the alignment of EHEC Tir proteins, the Ala at position +4 is conserved in EHEC Tir and EPEC Tir homologs as well as in putative intimin receptors in Edwarsiella and not in Lactobacilus aquaticus that has a Val at +4.
The Ala at position +4 faces opposite to the I-BAR domain in the 2YKT structure.

Position -1 is not conserved and varies in homologs (Val EHEC, D/E EPEC).

Position -2 has a conserved Val in all Escherichia spp. homologs and a Leu in Edwardsiella homologs. The Val fits in a non-hydrophobic pocket. Mutation of this Val to Ala did not affect pedestal formation (Brady,2007). The pocket is made by Arg114 and Tyr115.

Supplementary Table 3 from de Groot (de Groot,2011) contains possible NPY-containing interactors of I-BAR:
Only LIMK1 and LIMK2 had Val in position -2. Only MYO15 had Ala in position +4.
These proteins matched with the MEME logo generated with the EHEC and EPEC Tir homologs and putative intimin receptors: ITSN1, ITSN2 and SHAN2 (SHANK2).

LRP5/6 are the crucial membrane receptor proteins for Wnt Signalling. These proteins form complex with frizzled receptors and allow binding of Wnt which mediates the canonical Wnt Signalling. Antagonists such as Dickkopf (DKK) and sclerostin (SOST) compete with Wnt protein for binding with LRP5 and LRP6. Binding of antagonists halts the canonical Wnt signaling and presents these antagonists as an important therapeutic target. DKK1 can bind independently on two different sites (2:1).
Constructs with mutations in “NXI” motif (N40A, I42E) show decreased binding.

The protein kinase GSK3 is active by default. Repeating phosphorylated motifs in the LRP5/6 wnt receptors bind as pseudosubstrates, inhibiting the kinase. As a result, the beta-catenin phosphodegron is no longer phosphorylated, stabilising the transcription factor and allowing its transfer into the nucleus. GSK3 also has an auto-inhibitory N-terminal phosphopeptide which is phosphorylated in different regulatory contexts (e.g. insulin signalling) with a somewhat different, less Pro-rich, sequence preference.

The motif is present in C-terminal domain of frizzleds. This motif interacts with PDZ domains of Dishevelled proteins with a low binding affinity. The affinity is affected by the extended regions around motif (N-ter and C-ter both directions). It is known that mutations in this motif lead to disruption of Wnt signalling. This is justified as both Frizzled and Dishevelled are crucial for canonical and non-canonical Wnt signalling pathway. Further this motif is also present in smoothened (SMO) receptors which are having sequence similarity with FZDs. Among the different frizzled types Fz1, Fz2, Fz3, Fz4, and Fz7 have been shown to bind directly with PDZ domain of Dishevelled. The binding of Dishevelled with Fz5 is via a discontinued motif which is spread over C-terminal region of latter. The interaction involves cooperative action of conserved motifs present in third intracellular loop alongwith KTXXXW motif.

Doc_Pex_5 LVAEF Neuhaus,2014

4BXU
LVAEF is a Pex14-binding motif located at the N-terminal domain of the human PTS1 (Peroxisomal targeting signal 1) receptor Pex5. It has been suggested that the motif represents a docking site for cargo loaded receptor. Mutating motif to alanines affects the import of proteins into peroxisomes. Evolutionary conserved consensus sequence of the motif is LVXEF. The motif is not found in plant and yeast Pex5 but is present in Pex5 from a number of filamentous fungi. Binding kinetics of LVAEF motif are faster than the canonical diaromatic pentapeptide motif (WXXX[FY]) present in Pex5. This suggests that site might assist in establishing the first contact of Pex14 with PTS1 receptor. LIG_Pex14_3 fully annotated

DEG_Kelch_KLHL2_1 E.EE.E[AV]DQH Takahashi,2013 WNK kinases are involved in osmotic regulation and may be mutated in certain diseases that show a hypertension phenotype. An Acidic degron motif is highly conserved in vertebrate WNKs and is reported to target them for destruction by the cullin/KLHL2,3 kelch proteins, the latter designated as E3 ligases. WNK kinases disregulated for proper destruction can cause hypertensive disease.
Motif very strongly conserved in 4 vertebrate paralogues. Should look deeper into metazoa for motif definition. DEG_Kelch_KLHL3_1 fully annotated

LIG_CNOT1_NIM_1 F..W.DY..L Bhandari,2014, 4CQO The NIM motif (Not1 Interacting Motif) is conserved in the vertebrate RNA-binding paralogues, Nanos1, -2, -3. It binds the SHD domain of CNOT1, thereby recruiting the CCR4-NOT deadenylase complex. Nanos is a classical developmental regulator affecting posterior pattern formation in Drosophila. It is an RNA-binding protein affecting post-transcriptional mRNA regulation. The CCR4-NOT deadenylase complex catalyses the removal of poly(A) tails. The Nanos/CCR4-NOT interaction therefore modulates translational repression. fully annotated

The VDV motif is found in RbBP5 and interacts with an edge cleft of the WD40 domain in WDR5.
This interaction surface is different from the canonical axial site (in this case bound by the Win motif). RbBP5 is found in a number of chromatin complexes including SET1 and MLL.
Core motif may be preceded by several negatively charged residues. The core D does not directly bind WDR5 but makes an internal charged interaction that is probably important for the peptide geometry.
