The structures of Zn- , Co- and Fe-AK contain the characteristic LID (residues 125-163) and Core (residues 1-124 and 164-223) domains, which also include the AMP binding region. The LID domain harbors the Cys129-X5-His135-X15-Cys151-X2-Cys154- motif, which is responsible for metal binding in a tetrahedral fashion. In the absence of any substrate, the LID domain of all holo forms of AK was present in a fully open conformational state. The Core domain is connected to the LID by residues 116-123 and 165-173. This Core domain mainly consists of a five stranded beta sheet surrounded by 5 helices that keep the integrity of the tertiary structure of the enzyme. A Walker motif with conserved sequence G-X-X-G-X-G-K is present in the N-terminal region The structures presented herein further reinforce the notion that the metal ion is purely structural, contributing to the stability of the LID domain.
