PHOSPHOENOLPYRUVATE CARBOXYKINASE
Overview
We report the 1.8 A crystal structure of adenosine triphosphate, (ATP)-magnesium-oxalate bound phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PCK) from, Escherichia coli. ATP binding induces a 20 degree hinge-like rotation of, the N- and C-terminal domains which closes the active-site cleft. PCK, possesses a novel nucleotide-binding fold, particularly in the, adenine-binding region, where the formation of a cis backbone torsion, angle in a loop glycine residue promotes intimate contacts between the, adenine-binding loop and adenine, while stabilizing a syn conformation of, the base. This complex represents a reaction intermediate analogue along, the pathway of the conversion of oxaloacetate to phosphoenolpyruvate, and, provides insight into the mechanistic details of the chemical reaction, catalysed ...
