ADENOSINE 5'-DIPHOSPHATE BINDING AND THE ACTIVE SITE OF NUCLEOSIDE DIPHOSPHATE KINASE
Overview
The X-ray structure of nucleoside diphosphate kinase (NDP kinase) from the slime mold Dictyostelium discoideum has been determined to 2.2-A resolution and refined to an R-factor of 0.19 with and without bound ADP-Mg2+. The nucleotide binds near His 122, a residue which becomes phosphorylated during the catalytic cycle. The mode of binding is different from that observed in other phosphokinases, and it involves no glycine-rich sequence. The adenine base makes only nonpolar contacts with the protein. It points outside, explaining the lack of specificity of NDP kinase toward the base. The ribose 2'- and 3'-hydroxyls and the pyrophosphate moiety are H-bonded to polar side chains. A Mg2+ ion bridges the alpha- to the beta-phosphate which approaches the imidazole group of His 122 from the N delta side. The geometry at the active site in the ADP-Mg2+ complex suggests a mechanism for catalysis whereby the gamma-phosphate of a nucleoside triphosphate can be transferred onto His 122 with a minimum of atomic motion.
