Structure of Pentavalent Phosphorous Intermediate of an Enzyme Catalyzed Phosphoryl transfer Reaction observed on cocrystallization with Glucose 1-phosphate
Overview
Enzymes provide enormous rate enhancements, unmatched by any other type of, catalyst. The stabilization of high-energy states along the reaction, coordinate is the crux of the catalytic power of enzymes. We report the, atomic-resolution structure of a high-energy reaction intermediate, stabilized in the active site of an enzyme. Crystallization of, phosphorylated beta-phosphoglucomutase in the presence of the Mg(II), cofactor and either of the substrates glucose 1-phosphate or glucose, 6-phosphate produced crystals of the enzyme-Mg(II)-glucose, 1,6-(bis)phosphate complex, which diffracted x-rays to 1.2 and 1.4, angstroms, respectively. The structure reveals a stabilized pentacovalent, phosphorane formed in the phosphoryl transfer from the C(1)O of glucose, 1,6-(bis)phosphate to the nucleophilic Asp8 carboxylate.
