📝 英文原版摘要
PolDIP2 is a multifunctional mitochondrial protein implicated in redox regulation, mitochondrial proteostasis, and diverse mtDNA-associated processes, yet the principles underlying its regulation remain unclear. Crystallographic analysis revealed that PolDIP2 forms a redox-dependent disulfide-linked homodimer via a conserved Cys143 residue within its N-terminal YccV-like domain, and cellular and in vitro assays confirmed that this residue is essential for dimer formation. Oxidative stress enhanced dimerization of endogenous and ectopically expressed PolDIP2, and dimers were detected exclusively within mitochondria, requiring proper mitochondrial import. WT and C143A PolDIP2 overexpression produced similarly modest effects on mtDNA replication in cells, suggesting that dimerization has limited impact on mtDNA-associated processes. Proteomic analysis and biochemical validation identified both previously known and not yet characterized mitochondrial interactors of PolDIP2, and highlighted CHCHD2 as a specific binding partner. A conserved glycine-rich motif in the C-terminal ApaG/DUF525-like domain proved essential for this interaction, and disruption of the motif enhanced Cys143-dependent dimerization while abolishing CHCHD2 association, which preferentially occurs with monomeric PolDIP2. These findings define redox-controlled dimerization and a conserved ApaG-domain motif as key structural features shaping PolDIP2s interaction state within mitochondria and provide a basis for exploring its roles in redox-sensitive mitochondrial pathways.
