Overview

Bisphosphoglycerate mutase is a trifunctional enzyme of which the main, function is to synthesize 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate, the allosteric effector, of hemoglobin. The gene coding for bisphosphoglycerate mutase from the, human cDNA library was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The, protein crystals were obtained and diffract to 2.5 A and produced the, first crystal structure of bisphosphoglycerate mutase. The model was, refined to a crystallographic R-factor of 0.200 and R(free) of 0.266 with, excellent stereochemistry. The enzyme remains a dimer in the crystal. The, overall structure of the enzyme resembles that of the cofactor-dependent, phosphoglycerate mutase except the regions of 13-21, 98-117, 127-151, and, the C-terminal tail. The conformational changes in the backbone and the, side chains of some residues reveal the structural basis for the different, activities between phosphoglycerate mutase and bisphosphoglycerate mutase., The bisphosphoglycerate mutase-specific residue Gly-14 may cause the most, important conformational changes, which makes the side chain of Glu-13, orient toward the active site. The positions of Glu-13 and Phe-22 prevent, 2,3-bisphosphoglycerate from binding in the way proposed previously. In, addition, the side chain of Glu-13 would affect the Glu-89 protonation, ability responsible for the low mutase activity. Other structural, variations, which could be connected with functional differences, are also, discussed.
