Yeast Glutathione Synthase
Overview
Glutathione synthase catalyzes the final ATP-dependent step in glutathione, biosynthesis, the formation of glutathione from gamma-glutamylcysteine and, glycine. We have determined structures of yeast glutathione synthase in, two forms: unbound (2.3 A resolution) and bound to its substrate, gamma-glutamylcysteine, the ATP analog AMP-PNP, and two magnesium ions, (1.8 A resolution). These structures reveal that upon substrate binding, large domain motions convert the enzyme from an open unliganded form to a, closed conformation in which protein domains completely surround the, substrate in the active site.
