THREE-DIMENSIONAL STRUCTURE OF THYMIDINE PHOSPHORYLASE FROM ESCHERICHIA COLI AT 2.8 ANGSTROMS RESOLUTION
Overview
The three-dimensional structure of thymidine phosphorylase from, Escherichia coli has been determined at 2.8 A resolution using, multiple-isomorphous-replacement techniques. The amino acid sequence, deduced from the deoA DNA sequence is also reported. Thymidine, phosphorylase exists in the crystal as an S-shaped dimer in which the, subunits are related by a crystallographic 2-fold axis. Each subunit is, composed of a small alpha-helical domain of six helices and a large, alpha/beta domain. The alpha/beta domain includes a six-stranded mixed, beta-sheet and a four-stranded antiparallel beta-sheet. The active site, has been identified by difference Fourier analyses of the binding of, thymine and thymidine and lies in a cavity between the small and large, domains. The central beta-sheet is splayed open to accommodate a putative, phosphate-binding site which is probably occupied by a sulfate ion in the, crystal.
