Abstract

Vta1 and Vps60 are two ESCRT associated proteins, their direct interaction enhances Vps4 ATPase activity. The N-terminal domain of Vta1 (residues 1–167aa, named as Vta1NTD) contains two tandem MIT domains, which specifically recognize Vps60 and Did2 but not other ESCRT-III subunits. The fragment Vps60 (128–186aa) was reported to display full activity of Vps60, which stimulates Vps4 ATPase in a Vta1-dependent manner. To study the structural basis for the interaction between Vta1 and Vps60, as a first step, here, we report the resonance assignments of the sequential backbone atoms and the side chains of the residues in the two components of Vta1NTD/Vps60128–186 complex at pH 7.0 and 20 °C (BMRB No. 18521).
