Introduction

The archaeal A1A0 ATP synthase represent a class of chimeric ATPases/synthase , whose function and general structural design share characteristics both with vacuolar V1V0 ATPases and with F1Fo ATP synthases ^[1]. A1A0 ATP synthase catalyzes the formation of the energy currency ATP by a membrane-embedded electrically-driven motor. The archaeon in this study,Pyrococcus horikoshii OT3 is an anaerobic thermophile residing in oceanic deep sea vents with an optimal growth temperature of 100degrees. Anaerobic fermentation is its principle metabolic pathway. The specific enzymatic process in A-ATP synthase reveals novel, exceptional subunit composition and coupling stoichiometries that may reflect the differences in energy-conserving mechanisms as well as adaptation to temperatures at or above 100 degrees C. Because some archaea are rooted close to the origin in the tree of life, these unusual mechanisms are considered to have developed very early in the history of life and, therefore, may represent the first energy-conserving mechanisms. ^[2]

Structure

A-ATP synthase ATP synthase is composed of two parts A1 and A0 which are composed of at least nine subunits A3B3C:D:E:F:H2:a:cx that function as a pair of rotary motors connected by central and peripheral stalk(s) ^[2].This structure is similar to the known structure of F ATP synthase. The A0 domain is the hydrophobic membrane embedded ion-translocating sector that uses the H+ gradient to power ATP synthase in domain A1. A1 is catalytic and water soluble containing A and B subunits. These subunits are comparable to F-ATP synthase ATP synthase alpha/beta subunits. [thre binding change model] The A subunit of A1 is catalytic and the B subunit is regulatory, with a substrate-binding site on each.

Structural Significance

The active site is continually reshaped by interactions with the substrate as the substrate interacts with the enzyme. As a result, the substrate does not simply bind to a rigid active site; the amino acid side chains which make up the active site are molded into the precise positions that enable the enzyme to perform its catalytic function. Stabilization of the transition state supports the induced fit model. A-ATP synthase lowers the activation energy by creating an environment in which the transition state is stabilized

Structure

Within the catalytic A subunit there are four domains, the N-terminal , non-homologous , nucleotide binding alpha-beta , and C-terminal alpha helical bundle domains. figure1.

The P-Loop is the eight residue consensus sequence of amino acid GPFGSGKT . The P-loop or phosphate binding loop is conserved only within the A subunits and is a loop preceded by a beta sheet and followed by an alpha helix. It interacts with the phosphate groups of the nucleotide and with a magnesium ion at residue K240 and T241 , which coordinates the β- and γ-phosphates. This P-loop has an arched conformation unique to A-ATP Synthase, indicating that the mode of nucleotide binding and the catalytic mechanism is different from that of other syntheses. ^[3] For example, in A-ATP Synthases is involved in P-Loop stabilization, but its equivalent (alanine) in subunit B of the F-ATP syntheses subunit beta is a key residue in the catalytic process in moving towards the y-phosphate of ATP during catalysis. By comparing the average distances of the alpha carbons of the P-loop residues to the sulfate, vanadate, and PNP molecules, it was found that the PNP molecule is closest, followed by the vanadate then the sulfate. grah

Transition State Stabilization

Five steps inside the catalytic A-subunit are critical for catalysis. Substrate entrance, phosphate and nucleotide binding, transition-state formation, ATP formation, and product release. The vanadate bound model mimics the transition state. Orthovandate is a transition state analog useful because it can adapt both tetragonal and trigonal bipyramidal coordination geometry. Fig. 1. The Avi structure can be compared to the As sulfate bound structure and the Apnp AMP-PNP bound structure. As is analogous to the phosphate binding (substrate) structure and Apnp is analogous to the ATP binding (product) structure^[4]. A reaction coordination is generated from freeze frame picture of reactants such as "'As"' "'Avi"' and "Apnp". The movement of specific residues to stabilize the transition state is demonstrated by comparing the deviations between the three structures. pic Although not at bonding distances the residues K240 R264 E263 move closer to the vanadate with respect to the two other structures and are proposed to stabilize the transition state during catalysis.

Residue 238 is polar and interacts with the nucleotides via a hydrogen bond during catalysis. The distance between residue S238 is longest in As, shortest in Avi and intermediate in Apnp . In As a water molecule bridges the gap, which is removed in Avi. Dehydration of the transition state active site is reversed when ATP forms. In Apnp the water molecule interacts with the y-phosphate of ATP.

In "'F-ATP Synthase"' the homolog to S238 is the non polar A158. Since A158 cannot form hydrogen bonds to interact with the substrate, the P-loop undergoes a conformational change. In A-ATP Synthase the close proximity needed between S238 and the vandate during transition state is achieved with a hydrogen bond, not a conformational change in the P-loop.

[[The r.m.s.d from As to Avi is 1.18 angstroms. On average the P-loop residues a-carbon (234-241) are closer to the vandate molecule than to the sulfonate molecule, by 1.25 angstroms. The r.m.s.d from Avi to Apnp is 1.04 angstroms. P-loop residues are located at increasingly greater distances from the y-phosphate of AMP-PNP versus vandate versus sulfate, which shows that vanadate occupies an intermediate position.]]

These increased proximities of the catalytically important residues clearly demonstrate that structural rearrangement occurs during catalysis in subunit A.

^[5]

Significance of the Second Vandate

The second vandate is positioned in a region exactly opposite the nucleotide-binding site, where the ATP molecule transiently associates on its way to the final binding pocket in subunit "'B"'. [25] L417 Is involved in a bifurcated hydrogen bond with the second vandate. Similar binding behavior was observed for "'As"' [10] indicating that the substrate molecule has a similar path of entry to the active site in both the "'A"' and '"B"' subunit of the A-ATP synthase and that they have a transient binding position near the P-Loop. It is proposed that Pi binds first to the catalytic site and sterically hinders ATP binding, thereby selectively allowing binding of ADP [14] The "'Avi"' structure confirms this, since although both ADP and Vi were present in the crystallized solution, the catalytic A-subunit first permits only the binding of the phosphate analogue Vi. Hence the present "Avi"' structure represents a trapped initial transition state showing for the first time both the entering path and the final Vi-bound state in the catalytic subunit.

'3-D Structure of P-Loop Mutants K240 and T241 are both contained within the P-Loop. Their behavior with regards to the molecules in the active site is not characteristic of the chain as a whole. Mutations that changed K and T to alanine produced data consistent with the hypothesis that K20 stabilizes the transition state. side chain changes. 3ND8-K240 alanine mutant < br/> 3ND9-T241
