Crystal structure of dTDP-6-deoxy-L-lyxo-4-hexulose reductase (RmlD) in complex with NADPH
Overview
dTDP-6-deoxy-L-lyxo-4-hexulose reductase (RmlD) catalyzes the final step, in the conversion of dTDP-D-glucose to dTDP-L-rhamnose in an NAD(P)H- and, Mg2+-dependent reaction. L-rhamnose biosynthesis is an antibacterial, target. The structure of RmlD from Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium, has been determined, and complexes with NADH, NADPH, and dTDP-L-rhamnose, are reported. RmlD differs from other short chain dehydrogenases in that, it has a novel dimer interface that contains Mg2+. Enzyme catalysis, involves hydride transfer from the nicotinamide ring of the cofactor to, the C4'-carbonyl group of the substrate. The substrate is activated, through protonation by a conserved tyrosine. NAD(P)H is bound in a, solvent-exposed cleft, allowing facile replacement. We suggest a novel, role for the conserved serine/threonine residue of the catalytic triad of, SDR enzymes.
