Crystal structure of a low activity F12L mutant of human phorphobilinogen synthase

Contents

Overview

Porphobilinogen synthase (PBGS) catalyzes the first common step in the, biosynthesis of tetrapyrroles (such as heme and chlorophyll). Although the, predominant oligomeric form of this enzyme, as inferred from many crystal, structures, is that of a homo-octamer, a rare human PBGS allele, F12L, reveals the presence of a hexameric form. Rearrangement of an N-terminal, arm is responsible for this oligomeric switch, which results in profound, changes in kinetic behavior. The structural transition between octamer and, hexamer must proceed through an unparalleled equilibrium containing two, different dimer structures. The allosteric magnesium, present in most, PBGS, has a binding site in the octamer but not in the hexamer. The, unprecedented structural rearrangement reported here relates to the, allosteric regulation of PBGS and suggests that alternative PBGS oligomers, may function in a magnesium-dependent regulation of tetrapyrrole, biosynthesis in plants and some bacteria.
