The signal recognition particle (SRP) and its receptors (SR) mediate the cotranslational targeting of the membrane and secretory proteins in all cells. In Escherichia coli, SRP is composed of the Ffh protein and the 4.5S SRP RNA. Ffh is a multidomain protein comprising a methionine-rich (M) domain, a helical N domain, and a Ras-like guanine triphosphatase (GTPase) (G) domain. The N and G domains are commonly referred to as one structural unit, the NG domain. In this article, the complex structure of SRP and SR is investigated with the Gaussian network model (GNM) and anisotropic network model (ANM). GNM provides the information of structure stability. It is found that the intermolecular interactions between SRP and SR can obviously decrease the fluctuation of NG domains. Nevertheless, the large structural rearrangement will take place during the cotranslational protein targeting cycle. Hence, the moving directions of fluctuation regions are further ascertained by using cross-correlation analysis and the ANM. The NG domain of Ffh undergoes a clockwise rotation around the GM linker and the M domain of Ffh shows an opposite direction to the NG domain. These functional movements will facilitate the SRP structure to transform into the free form and the sequence-bound form. These simple coarse-grained analyses can be used as a general and quick method for the mechanism studies of protein assembly and supramolecular systems.
