Crystal Structure of ybiV from Escherichia coli K12
Structural highlights
Function[SUPH_ECOLI] Catalyzes the hydrolysis of sugar phosphate to sugar and inorganic phosphate. Has a wide substrate specificity catalyzing the hydrolysis of ribose-5-phosphate, glucose-6-phosphate, fructose-1-phosphate, acetyl-phosphate, glycerol-1-phosphate, glycerol-2-phosphate, 2-deoxy-glucose-6-phosphate, mannose-6-phosphate and fructose-6-phosphate. Appears to have a low level of phosphotransferase activity using monophosphates as the phosphate donor.[1] [2] [3] Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB.

Publication Abstract from PubMedThe protein YbiV from Escherichia coli K12 MG1655 is a hypothetical protein with sequence homology to the haloacid dehalogenase (HAD) superfamily of proteins. Although numerous members of this family have been identified, the functions of few are known. Using the crystal structure, sequence analysis, and biochemical assays, we have characterized YbiV as a HAD phosphatase. The crystal structure of YbiV reveals a two-domain protein, one with the characteristic HAD hydrolase fold, the other an inserted alpha/beta fold. In an effort to understand the mechanism, we also solved and report the structures of YbiV in complex with beryllofluoride (BeF3-) and aluminum trifluoride (AlF3), which have been shown to mimic the phosphorylated intermediate and transition state for hydrolysis, respectively, in analogy to other HAD phosphatases. Analysis of the structures reveals the substrate-binding cavity, which is hydrophilic in nature. Both structure and sequence homology indicate YbiV may be a sugar phosphatase, which is supported by biochemical assays that measured the release of free phosphate on a number of sugar-like substrates. We also investigated available genomic and functional data in an effort to determine the physiological substrate. YbiV from Escherichia coli K12 is a HAD phosphatase.,Roberts A, Lee SY, McCullagh E, Silversmith RE, Wemmer DE Proteins. 2005 Mar 1;58(4):790-801.
