Cholesterol catabolism plays an important role inMycobacterium tuberculosis’s (Mtb’s) survival and persistence in the host.Mtbexploits three β-oxidation cycles to fully degrade the side chain of cholesterol. Five cistronic genes in a single operon encode three enzymes, 3-oxo-4-pregnene-20-carboxyl-CoA dehydrogenase (ChsE1-ChsE2), 3-oxo-4,17-pregnadiene-20-carboxyl-CoA hydratase (ChsH1-ChsH2), and 17-hydroxy-3-oxo-4-pregnene-20-carboxyl-CoA retro-aldolase (Ltp2), to perform the last β-oxidation cycle in this pathway. Among these three enzymes, ChsH1-ChsH2 and Ltp2 form a protein complex that is required for the catalysis of carbon–carbon bond cleavage. In this work, we report the structure of the full length ChsH1-ChsH2-Ltp2 complex based on small-angle X-ray scattering and single-particle electron microscopy data. Mutagenesis experiments confirm the requirement for Ltp2 to catalyze the retro-aldol reaction. The structure illustrates how acyl transfer between enzymes may occur. Each protomer of the ChsH1-ChsH2-Ltp2 complex contains three protein components: a chain of ChsH1, a chain of ChsH2, and a chain of Ltp2. Two protomers dimerize at the interface of Ltp2 to form a heterohexameric structure. This unique heterohexameric structure of the ChsH1-ChsH2-Ltp2 complex provides entry to further understand the mechanism of cholesterol catabolism inMtb.
