However, no conserved FH-binding sequence pattern is evident in these proteins. To address this, we determined the structures of M5 protein, M6 protein, and FbaA fragments complexed with FH domains 6 and 7. M5 and M6 proteins formed dimeric α-helical coiled coils, as expected, while FbaA formed a monomeric three-helix bundle preceded by a loop. Each Strep A protein had a different FH-binding mode, and distinct FH-binding sequence patterns were constructed for each based on substitution mutagenesis. About half of the known 250 Strep A strains were identified to have FH-binding patterns, with the majority due to FbaA as compared to M or M-like Enn proteins. Our structural and functional elucidation of the mechanism of FH recruitment is applicable to the precise investigation of its role in Strep A virulence.</p>","PeriodicalId":22168,"journal":{"name":"Structure","volume":" ","pages":"778-789.e4"},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2026-05-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC13002132/pdf/","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147475254","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Central to this machinery is the exocyst complex, which tethers cargo vesicles to their destination membrane, alongside other intracellular membrane tethering roles. Precisely how the exocyst spatially integrates membranes and membrane resident binding partners is unclear. Here, we address the structural morphology and formation of the human exocyst complex. Through structural approaches coupled to predictive models, we determined that the exocyst and its subcomplexes have extended \"arm-like\" structures that help maximize its reach. Moreover, we demonstrate minimal intersubunit interaction, in contrast to prior models. Nucleation of the holocomplex occurs through a single site, explaining its spatial extension. Our results provide the biochemical basis for exocyst complex assembly, suggesting an ornate extended architecture.</p>","PeriodicalId":22168,"journal":{"name":"Structure","volume":" ","pages":"870-879.e5"},"PeriodicalIF":4.3,"publicationDate":"2026-05-07","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147356150","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"生物学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
