PurE (N5-carboxyaminoimidazole Ribonucleotide Mutase) from the acidophile Acetobacter aceti
Overview
The crystal structure of Acetobacter aceti PurE was determined to a, resolution of 1.55 A and is compared with the known structures of the, class I PurEs from a mesophile, Escherichia coli, and a thermophile, Thermotoga maritima. Analyses of the general factors that increase protein, stability are examined as potential explanations for the acid stability of, A. aceti PurE. Increased inter-subunit hydrogen bonding and an increased, number of arginine-containing salt bridges appear to account for the bulk, of the increased acid stability. A chain of histidines linking two active, sites is discussed in the context of the proton transfers catalyzed by the, enzyme.
