NMR structure of enzyme GatB of the galactitol-specific phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent phosphotransferase system

Overview

The phosphoenolpyruvate-dependent carbohydrate transport system (PTS), couples uptake with phosphorylation of a variety of carbohydrates in, prokaryotes. In this multienzyme complex, the enzyme II (EII), a, carbohydrate-specific permease, is constituted of two cytoplasmic domains, IIA and IIB, and a transmembrane channel IIC domain. Among the five, families of EIIs identified in Escherichia coli, the galactitol-specific, transporter (II(gat)) belongs to the glucitol family and is structurally, the least well-characterized. Here, we used nuclear magnetic resonance, (NMR) spectroscopy to solve the three-dimensional structure of the IIB, subunit (GatB). GatB consists of a central four-stranded parallel, beta-sheet flanked by alpha-helices on both sides; the active site, cysteine of GatB is located at the beginning of an unstructured loop, between beta1 and alpha1 that folds into a P-loop-like structure. This, structural arrangement shows similarities with other IIB subunits but also, with mammalian low molecular weight protein tyrosine phosphatases (LMW, PTPase) and arsenate reductase (ArsC). An NMR titration was performed to, identify the GatA-interacting residues.
