Molecular basis for the interaction between stress-inducible phosphoprotein 1 (STIP1) and S100A1
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Stress-inducible phosphoprotein 1 (STIP1) is a cellular co-chaperone, which regulates heat-shock protein 70 (Hsp70) and Hsp90 activity during client protein folding. Members of the S100 family of dimeric calcium-binding proteins have been found to inhibit Hsp association with STIP1 through binding of STIP1 tetratricopeptide repeat (TPR) domains, possibly regulating the chaperone cycle. Here, we investigated the molecular basis of S100A1 binding to STIP1. We show that three S100A1 dimers associate with one molecule of STIP1 in a calcium-dependent manner. Isothermal titration calorimetry revealed that individual STIP1 TPR domains, TPR1, TPR2A and TPR2B, bind a single S100A1 dimer with significantly different affinities and that the TPR2B domain possesses the highest affinity for S100A1. S100A1 bound each TPR domain through a common binding interface composed of α-helices III and IV of each S100A1 subunit, which is only accessible following a large conformational change in S100A1 upon calcium binding. The TPR2B-binding site for S100A1 was predominately mapped to the C-terminal α-helix of TPR2B, where it is inserted into the hydrophobic cleft of an S100A1 dimer, suggesting a novel binding mechanism. Our data present the structural basis behind STIP1 and S100A1 complex formation, and provide novel insights into TPR module-containing proteins and S100 family member complexes.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
