ZN MG SUBSTITUTED AMINOPEPTIDASE P FROM E. COLI
Overview
The effect of metal substitution on the activity and structure of the, aminopeptidase P (APPro) from Escherichia coli has been investigated., Measurements of activity in the presence of Mn2+, Mg2+, Zn2+, Na+, and, Ca2+ show that significant activity is seen only in the Mn-bound form of, the enzyme. The addition of Zn2+ to [MnMn(APPro)] is strongly inhibitory., Crystal structures of [MnMn(APPro)], [MgMg(APPro)], [ZnZn(APPro)], [ZnMg(APPro)], [Ca_(APPro)], [Na_(APPro)], and [apo(APPro)] were, determined. The structures of [Ca_(APPro)] and [Na_(APPro)] have a single, metal atom at their active site. Surprisingly, when a tripeptide substrate, (ValProLeu) was soaked into [Na_(APPro)] crystals in the presence of 200, mM Mg2+, the structure had substrate, but no metal, bound at the active, site. ...
