CHELATION OF SER 39 TO MG2+ LATCHES A GATE AT THE ACTIVE SITE OF ENOLASE: STRUCTURE OF THE BIS(MG2+) COMPLEX OF YEAST ENOLASE AND THE INTERMEDIATE ANALOG PHOSPHONOACETOHYDROXAMATE AT 2.1 ANGSTROMS RESOLUTION

Overview

The structure of a new crystal form of enolase from bakers' yeast has been, solved to 2.1-A resolution. Crystals were grown from poly(ethylene glycol), and KCl at pH 8.2 in the presence of Mg2+ and a reaction intermediate, analog, phosphonoacetohydroxamate (PhAH). Crystals belong to space group, C2; have unit cell dimensions a = 123.5 A, b = 73.9 A, and c = 94.8 A with, beta = 93.3 degrees; and contain one dimer per asymmetric unit. The, structure was solved by molecular replacement from the X-ray coordinates, of apoenolase [Stec, B., & Lebioda, L. (1990) J. Mol. Biol. 211, 235-248]., Both essential divalent metal ions are observed to be complexed with the, inhibitor. The two Mg2+ ions are 4.05 A apart and are bridged by a mu-oxyl, ligand from the carbonyl moiety of PhAH. The "high-affinity" Mg2+, coordinates to the carboxylate side chains of Asp 246, Glu 295, and Asp, 320, one water molecule, and the hydroxamate and carbonyl oxygens of PhAH., The second Mg2+ coordinates to a phosphonyl oxygen, two water molecules, and the mu-bridge carbonyl oxygen of PhAH. Coordination schemes with, respect to PhAH and water ligands are fully consistent with those of the, Mn2+ complexes determined spectroscopically [Poyner, R.R., & Reed, G. H., (1992) Biochemistry 31, 7166-7173]. Remaining ligands for the second Mg2+, are the carbonyl oxygen and gamma-oxygen of Ser 39. Chelation of this Ser, residue to Mg2+ effectively "latches" a flexible loop extending from Gly, 37 through His 43 and closes off the entrance to the active site. The, position of the second Mg2+ in the active site provides new insight into, the stereochemistry of substrate binding.
