The p24 family proteins form homo- and hetero-oligomeric complexes for efficient transport of cargo proteins from the endoplasmic reticulum to the Golgi apparatus. It consists of four subfamilies (p24 alpha, p24 beta, p24 gamma, and p24 delta). p24 gamma 2 plays crucial roles in the selective transport of glycosylphosphatidylinositol-anchored proteins. Here, we determined the crystal structure of mouse p242 Golgi dynamics (GOLD) domain at 2.8 angstrom resolution by the single anomalous diffraction method using intrinsic sulfur atoms. In spite of low sequence identity among p24 family proteins, p24 gamma 2 GOLD domain assumes beta-sandwich fold, similar to that of p24 beta 1 or p24 delta 1. An additional short alpha-helix is observed at the C-terminus of the p24 gamma 2 GOLD domain. Intriguingly, p24 gamma 2 GOLD domains crystallize as dimers, and dimer formation seems assisted by the short alpha-helix. Dimerization modes of GOLD domains are compared among p24 family proteins.
