abstract = {IM30, the inner membrane-associated protein of 30 kDa (also
known as Vipp1) is essential for thylakoid membrane
biogenesis and/or maintenance in chloroplasts and
cyanobacteria. IM30 and its bacterial homolog PspA belong to
the ESCRT-III superfamily, proteins previously thought to be
restricted to eukaryotes and archaea. Despite low sequence
similarity, IM30 shares key structural and functional
features with eukaryotic ESCRT-IIIs, including a conserved
α1-α2 helical hairpin core and the ability to form
oligomeric barrel or rod assemblies that mediate membrane
remodeling. Using IM30 variants, we now show that membrane
binding of IM30 is driven by electrostatic interactions
between the positively charged α1-α3 helical hairpin and
negatively charged lipid surfaces, paralleling the role of
charged helical regions in some eukaryotic ESCRT-IIIs. This
likely is followed by lateral assembly of IM30 into
higher-order barrel or rod structures on the membrane. Once
assembled, α0 helices within these oligomers engage and
stabilize internalized membrane tubules, mirroring membrane
interaction strategies of eukaryotic ESCRT-IIIs, which use
both N-terminal sequence motifs and charged residues on
α1/α2. Thus, our findings demonstrate a conserved membrane
binding and remodeling mechanism across the ESCRT-III
superfamily, underscoring an evolutionary link in membrane
dynamics between pro- and eukaryotes.},
