TYPE II 3-DEHYDROQUINATE DEHYDRATASE (DHQASE) FROM ACTINOBACILLUS PLEUROPNEUMONIAE

Overview

The structure of the type II dehydroquinate dehydratase (DHQase) from, Actinobacillus pleuropneumoniae, the third enzyme of the shikimate, pathway, has been determined. Crystals diffracting to 1.7 A were obtained, in space and on earth using the counter-diffusion technique. The structure, was solved using molecular replacement and refined to high resolution. The, overall structure of the dodecameric enzyme is described and compared with, structures of DHQases from other bacteria. DHQases contain a flexible loop, that presumably closes over the active site upon substrate binding. The, enzyme can exist in an open or closed conformation. The present structure, displays the open conformation, with a sulfate anion bound in the active, site. The availability of this structure opens a route to ... [(full description)]
