BACILLUS STEAROTHERMOPHILUS ADENYLATE KINASE

Overview

Crystal structures of Bacillus stearothermophilus adenylate kinase with, bound Ap5A, Mn2+ Ap5A, and Mg2+ Ap5A have been determined by X-ray, crystallography to resolutions of 1.6 A, 1.85 A, and 1.96 A, respectively., The protein's lid domain is partially open, being both rotated and, translated away from bound Ap5A. The flexibility of the lid domain in the, ternary state and its ability to transfer force directly to the the active, site is discussed in light of our proposed entropic mechanism for, catalytic turnover. The bound Zn2+ atom is demonstrably structural in, nature, with no contacts other than its ligating cysteine residues within, 5 A. The B. stearothermophilus adenylate kinase lid appears to be a, truncated zinc finger domain, lacking the DNA binding finger, which we, have ... [(full description)]

About this Structure
