| - | '''Crystal Structure of Acetylornithine Transcarbamylase'''<br />

| - | ==Overview==
| + | |
| - | We have identified in Xanthomonas campestris a novel N-acetylornithine, transcarbamylase that replaces ornithine transcarbamylase in the canonic, arginine biosynthetic pathway of several Eubacteria. The crystal, structures of the protein in the presence and absence of the reaction, product, N-acetylcitrulline, were determined. This new family of, transcarbamylases lacks the DxxSMG motif that is characteristic of all, ornithine transcarbamylases (OTCases) and contains a novel proline-rich, loop that forms part of the active site. The specificity for, N-acetylornithine is conferred by hydrogen bonding with residues in the, proline-rich loop via water molecules and by hydrophobic interactions with, residues from the adjacent 80's, 120's, and proline-rich loops. This novel, protein structure provides a starting point for rational design of, specific analogs that may be useful in combating human and plant pathogens, that utilize acetylornithine transcarbamylase rather than ornithine, transcarbamylase.
