The structure of human EXD2 reveals a chimeric 3′ to 5′ exonuclease domain that discriminates substrates via metal coordination

Abstract: EXD2 (3′-5′ exonuclease domain-containing protein 2) is an essential protein with a conserved DEDDy superfamily 3′-5′ exonuclease domain. Recent research suggests that EXD2 has two potential functions: as a component of the DNA double-strand break repair machinery and as a ribonuclease for the regulation of mitochondrial translation. Herein, electron microscope imaging analysis and proximity labeling revealed that EXD2 is anchored to the mitochondrial outer membrane through a conserved N-terminal transmembrane… Show more

“…An identical protein would also arise if a downstream methionine, M126, were used for translation initiation, and such alternative translation initiation could explain our BioID data (as the tagged bait is not spliced). The second isoform lacks a large part of the 3'-5' endonuclease which extends from aa 76-295, but still contains the HNH endonuclease domain from aa 408-470 (Park et al, 2019). The presence of several EXD2 isoforms (or products from posttranslational processing) was confirmed using stealth siRNA to knock-down EXD2 in cells ( Supplementary Fig.…”

“…A possible explanation for this behavior could be that this protein is dually localized in different mitochondrial sub-compartments, an extremely rare occurrence. EXD2, Exonuclease 3'-5' Domain Containing 2, is a protein that has been described to localize to the OMM (Hensen et al, 2018;Park et al, 2019), the mitochondrial matrix where it was described to play a role in mitochondrial translation through its RNA endonuclease activity (Silva et al, 2018), as well as the nucleus where it was suggested to play a role in double-strand break resection and (Broderick et al, 2016;Hensen et al, 2018;Nieminuszczy et al, 2019;Park et al, 2019;Silva et al, 2018). Two EXD2 isoforms are predicted in databases ( Fig.…”

“…This raises the speculation that the pleiotropic effect of PfCRT mutations may not be the sole cause for changes in antimalarial drug sensitivity. We did find PPQ resistant isolates with exo mutations and single copy of PM2; P. falciparum exonuclease (PF3D7_1362500) has 25.62%, 17.92%, and 17.07% amino acid sequence identity to exosome complex exonuclease RRP6 [51], exonuclease 3′→5′ domain containing protein 2 (EXD2) [52], and exonuclease 3′→5′ domain containing protein 1 (EXD1) [53], respectively. The eukaryotic RNA exosome is a 3′→5′ degradation machinery involved in the processing of coding and noncoding RNAs [54].…”

“…Our group found homology of the N-terminus of ECSIT to the (organellar) RNA-binding pentatricopeptide repeat domains (Elurbe and Huynen, 2016), suggesting an additional RNA-binding function. The 3′−5′ exonuclease domain-containing protein 2 (EXD2), acting on both DNA and RNA, was recently published as a mitochondrial protein (Hensen et al, 2018; Silva et al, 2018; Park et al, 2019). Silva et al reported EXD2 as a mitochondrial matrix or inner membrane ribonuclease involved in among others mitochondrial translation, while Hensen et al and Park et al show a mitochondrial outer membrane localization.…”
