STRUCTURE OF A ZN ENZYME
Overview
The biosynthesis of fosfomycin, an oxirane antibiotic in clinical use, involves a unique epoxidation catalyzed by (S)-2-hydroxypropylphosphonic, acid epoxidase (HPPE). The reaction is essentially dehydrogenation of a, secondary alcohol. A high-resolution crystallographic analysis reveals, that the HPPE subunit displays a two-domain combination. The C-terminal or, catalytic domain has the cupin fold that binds a divalent cation, whereas, the N-terminal domain carries a helix-turn-helix motif with putative, DNA-binding helices positioned 34 A apart. The structure of HPPE serves as, a model for numerous proteins, of ill-defined function, predicted to be, transcription factors but carrying a cupin domain at the C terminus., Structure-reactivity analyses reveal conformational changes near the, ...
