STRUCTURE OF CHEA DOMAIN P4 IN COMPLEX WITH ADP

Overview

To probe the structural basis for protein histidine kinase (PHK) catalytic, activity and the prospects for PHK-specific inhibitor design, we report, the crystal structures for the nucleotide binding domain of Thermotoga, maritima CheA with ADP and three ATP analogs (ADPNP, ADPCP and TNP-ATP), bound with either Mg(2+) or Mn(2+). The conformation of ADPNP bound to, CheA and related ATPases differs from that reported in the ADPNP complex, of PHK EnvZ. Interactions of the active site with the nucleotide, gamma-phosphate and its associated Mg(2+) ion are linked to conformational, changes in an ATP-lid that could mediate recognition of the substrate, domain. The inhibitor TNP-ATP binds CheA with its phosphates in a, nonproductive conformation and its adenine and trinitrophenyl groups in, two adjacent binding pockets. The trinitrophenyl interaction may be, exploited for designing CheA-targeted drugs that would not interfere with, host ATPases.
