alpha-domain of ATPase
Overview
The crystal structure of the small, mostly helical alpha domain of the, AAA+ module of the Escherichia coli ATP-dependent protease Lon has been, solved by single isomorphous replacement combined with anomalous, scattering and refined at 1.9A resolution to a crystallographic R factor, of 17.9%. This domain, comprising residues 491-584, was obtained by, chymotrypsin digestion of the recombinant full-length protease. The alpha, domain of Lon contains four alpha helices and two parallel strands and, resembles similar domains found in a variety of ATPases and helicases, including the oligomeric proteases HslVU and ClpAP. The highly conserved, "sensor-2" Arg residue is located at the beginning of the third helix., Detailed comparison with the structures of 11 similar domains established, the putative location of the nucleotide-binding site in this first, fragment of Lon for which a crystal structure has become available.
