Structural Genomics, Protein TM1243, (SAICAR synthetase)

Overview

As a part of a structural genomics program, the 2.2 angstroms resolution, crystal structure of the PurC gene product from Thermotoga maritima has, been solved. This 26.2 kDa protein belongs to the, phophoribosylaminoimidazole-succinocarboxamide or SAICAR synthase family, of enzymes, the members of which are involved in de novo purine, biosynthesis. SAICAR synthase can be divided into three subdomains: two, alpha+beta regions exhibiting structural homology with ATP-binding, proteins and a carboxy-terminal subdomain of two alpha-helices. The, asymmetric unit contains two copies of the protein which are covalently, linked by a disulfide bond between Cys126(A) and Cys126(B). This, 230-amino-acid protein exhibits high structural homology with SAICAR, synthase from baker's yeast. The protein structure is described and, compared with that of the ATP-SAICAR synthase complex from yeast.
