TIME-RESOLVED AND STATIC-ENSEMBLE STRUCTURAL CHEMISTRY OF HYDROXYMETHYLBILANE SYNTHASE
Overview
The enzyme hydroxymethylbilane synthase (HMBS, EC 4.3.1.8), 313 amino acid, residues and MW 34 kDa, also known as porphobilinogen deaminase (PBGD), catalyses the stepwise polymerization of four molecules of porphobilinogen, (PBG) to the linear tetrapyrrole 1-hydroxymethylbilane. Several, crystallographic structures of HMBS have been previously determined, most, recently including by time-resolved Laue protein crystallography of the, Lys59Gln mutant form with reaction initiation undertaken by use of a flow, cell carrying the substrate PBG. In this paper we review these structures, and add new molecular graphics representations and analyses. Moreover we, present a new structure refined at 1.66 A resolution using diffraction, data recorded at cryo-temperature (100 K) in an attempt at ... [(full description)]
