Crystal structure of type 2 isopentenyl diphosphate isomerase from Thermus thermophilus in complex with inorganic pyrophosphate.

ABSTRACT: The N-terminal region is stabilized in the crystal structure of Thermus thermophilus type 2 isopentenyl diphosphate isomerase in complex with inorganic pyrophosphate, providing new insights about the active site and the catalytic mechanism of the enzyme. The PP i moiety is located near the conserved residues, H10, R97, H152, Q157, E158, and W219, and the flavin cofactor. The putative active site of isopentenyl diphosphate isomerase 2 provides interactions for stabilizing a carbocationic intermediate similar to those that stabilize the intermediate in the well-established protonation-deprotonation mechanism of isopentenyl diphosphate isomerase 1.

Crystal structure of isopentenyl diphosphate:dimethylallyl diphosphate isomerase.

Project description:Isopentenyl diphosphate:dimethylallyl diphosphate (IPP:DMAPP) isomerase catalyses a crucial activation step in the isoprenoid biosynthesis pathway. This enzyme is responsible for the isomerization of the carbon-carbon double bond of IPP to create the potent electrophile DMAPP. DMAPP then alkylates other molecules, including IPP, to initiate the extraordinary variety of isoprenoid compounds found in nature. The crystal structures of free and metal-bound Escherichia coli IPP isomerase reveal critical active site features underlying its catalytic mechanism. The enzyme requires one Mn(2+) or Mg(2+) ion to fold in its active conformation, forming a distorted octahedral metal coordination site composed of three histidines and two glutamates and located in the active site. Two critical residues, C67 and E116, face each other within the active site, close to the metal-binding site. The structures are compatible with a mechanism in which the cysteine initiates the reaction by protonating the carbon-carbon double bond, with the antarafacial rearrangement ultimately achieved by one of the glutamates involved in the metal coordination sphere. W161 may stabilize the highly reactive carbocation generated during the reaction through quadrupole- charge interaction.

Crystal structure of inorganic pyrophosphatase from Thermus thermophilus.

Project description:The 3-dimensional structure of inorganic pyrophosphatase from Thermus thermophilus (T-PPase) has been determined by X-ray diffraction at 2.0 A resolution and refined to R = 15.3%. The structure consists of an antiparallel closed beta-sheet and 2 alpha-helices and resembles that of the yeast enzyme in spite of the large difference in size (174 and 286 residues, respectively), little sequence similarity beyond the active center (about 20%), and different oligomeric organization (hexameric and dimeric, respectively). The similarity of the polypeptide folding in the 2 PPases provides a very strong argument in favor of an evolutionary relationship between the yeast and bacterial enzymes. The same Greek-key topology of the 5-stranded beta-barrel was found in the OB-fold proteins, the bacteriophage gene-5 DNA-binding protein, toxic-shock syndrome toxin-1, and the major cold-shock protein of Bacillus subtilis. Moreover, all known nucleotide-binding sites in these proteins are located on the same side of the beta-barrel as the active center in T-PPase. Analysis of the active center of T-PPase revealed 17 residues of potential functional importance, 16 of which are strictly conserved in all sequences of soluble PPases. Their possible role in the catalytic mechanism is discussed on the basis of the present crystal structure and with respect to site-directed mutagenesis studies on the Escherichia coli enzyme. The observed oligomeric organization of T-PPase allows us to suggest a possible mechanism for the allosteric regulation of hexameric PPases.

Kinetic and spectroscopic characterization of type II isopentenyl diphosphate isomerase from Thermus thermophilus: evidence for formation of substrate-induced flavin species.

Project description:Type II isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP) isomerase catalyzes the interconversion of IPP and dimethylallyl diphosphate (DMAPP). Although the reactions catalyzed by the type II enzyme and the well-studied type I IPP isomerase are identical, the type II protein requires reduced flavin for activity. The chemical mechanism, including the role of flavin, has not been established for type II IPP isomerase. Recombinant type II IPP isomerase from Thermus thermophilus HB27 was purified by Ni2+ affinity chromatography. The aerobically purified enzyme was inactive until the flavin cofactor was reduced by NADPH or dithionite or photochemically. The inactive oxidized flavin-enzyme complex bound IPP in a Mg2+-dependent manner for which KD approximately KmIPP, suggesting that the substrate binds to the inactive oxidized and active reduced forms of the protein with similar affinities. N,N-Dimethyl-2-amino-1-ethyl diphosphate (NIPP), a transition state analogue for the type I isomerase, competitively inhibits the type II enzyme, but with a much lower affinity. pH-dependent spectral changes indicate that the binding of IPP, DMAPP, and a saturated analogue isopentyl diphosphate promotes protonation of anionic reduced flavin. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) and UV-visible spectroscopy show a substrate-dependent accumulation of the neutral flavin semiquinone during both the flavoenzyme reduction and reoxidation processes in the presence of IPP and related analogues. Redox potentials of IPP-bound enzyme indicate that the neutral semiquinone state of the flavin is stabilized thermodynamically relative to free FMN in solution.

Crystal Structure of the LysY·LysW Complex from Thermus thermophilus.

Project description:Several bacteria and archaea utilize the amino group-carrier protein, LysW, for lysine biosynthesis, in which an isopeptide bond is formed between the C-terminal Glu of LysW and an amino group of ?-aminoadipate (AAA). The resulting LysW-?-AAA is phosphorylated by LysZ to form LysW-?-AAA phosphate, which is subsequently reduced to LysW-?-aminoadipic semialdehyde (LysW-?-AASA) through a reaction catalyzed by LysY. In this study, we determined the crystal structures of LysY from Thermus thermophilus HB27 (TtLysY) complexed with TtLysW-?-AASA and TtLysW-?-AAA, respectively. In both structures, the globular domain of TtLysW was recognized by positively charged residues on helix ?9 and the ?11-?10 loop of TtLysY through conformational changes. A mutational analysis confirmed that the interactions observed between TtLysY and TtLysW are important for the function of TtLysY. The extended LysW recognition loop and conserved arginine residue were identified as signatures to discriminate LysY from ArgC, which is involved in arginine biosynthesis. Combined with the previously determined TtLysZ·TtLysW complex structure, TtLysW may simultaneously bind TtLysZ and TtLysY. These structural insights suggest the formation of a TtLysWZY ternary complex, in which the flexible C-terminal extension of TtLysW promotes the efficient transfer of the labile intermediate from the active site of TtLysZ to that of TtLysY during the sequential reactions catalyzed by TtLysZY.

Isopentenyl diphosphate isomerase. Mechanism-based inhibition by diene analogues of isopentenyl diphosphate and dimethylallyl diphosphate.

Project description:Isopentenyl diphosphate isomerase (IDI) catalyzes the interconversion of isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP) and dimethylallyl diphosphate (DMAPP). This is an essential step in the mevalonate entry into the isoprenoid biosynthetic pathway. The isomerization catalyzed by type I IDI involves protonation of the carbon-carbon double bond in IPP or DMAPP to form a tertiary carbocation, followed by deprotonation. Diene analogues for DMAPP (E-2-OPP and Z-2-OPP) and IPP (4-OPP) were synthesized and found to be potent active-site-directed irreversible inhibitors of the enzyme. X-ray analysis of the E.I complex between Escherichia coli IDI and 4-OPP reveals the presence of two isomers that differ in the stereochemistry of the newly formed C3-C4 double bond in the hydrocarbon chain of the inhibitor. In both adducts C5 of the inhibitor is joined to the sulfur of C67. In these structures the methyl group formed upon protonation of the diene moiety in 4-OPP is located near E116, implicating that residue in the protonation step.

Determination of kinetics and the crystal structure of a novel type 2 isopentenyl diphosphate: dimethylallyl diphosphate isomerase from Streptococcus pneumoniae.

Project description:Isopentenyl diphosphate isomerase (IDI) is a key enzyme in the isoprenoid biosynthetic pathway and is required for all organisms that synthesize isoprenoid metabolites from mevalonate. Type 1 IDI (IDI-1) is a metalloprotein that is found in eukaryotes, whereas the type 2 isoform (IDI-2) is a flavoenzyme found in bacteria that is completely absent from human. IDI-2 from the pathogenic bacterium Streptococcus pneumoniae was recombinantly expressed in Escherichia coli. Steady-state kinetic studies of the enzyme indicated that FMNH2 (KM =0.3 μM) bound before isopentenyl diphosphate (KM =40 μM) in an ordered binding mechanism. An X-ray crystal structure at 1.4 Å resolution was obtained for the holoenzyme in the closed conformation with a reduced flavin cofactor and two sulfate ions in the active site. These results helped to further approach the enzymatic mechanism of IDI-2 and, thus, open new possibilities for the rational design of antibacterial compounds against sequence-similar and structure-related pathogens such as Enterococcus faecalis or Staphylococcus aureus.

Crystal structure of A3B3 complex of V-ATPase from Thermus thermophilus.

Project description:Vacuolar-type ATPases (V-ATPases) exist in various cellular membranes of many organisms to regulate physiological processes by controlling the acidic environment. Here, we have determined the crystal structure of the A(3)B(3) subcomplex of V-ATPase at 2.8 A resolution. The overall construction of the A(3)B(3) subcomplex is significantly different from that of the alpha(3)beta(3) sub-domain in F(o)F(1)-ATP synthase, because of the presence of a protruding 'bulge' domain feature in the catalytic A subunits. The A(3)B(3) subcomplex structure provides the first molecular insight at the catalytic and non-catalytic interfaces, which was not possible in the structures of the separate subunits alone. Specifically, in the non-catalytic interface, the B subunit seems to be incapable of binding ATP, which is a marked difference from the situation indicated by the structure of the F(o)F(1)-ATP synthase. In the catalytic interface, our mutational analysis, on the basis of the A(3)B(3) structure, has highlighted the presence of a cluster composed of key hydrophobic residues, which are essential for ATP hydrolysis by V-ATPases.

Isopentenyl pyrophosphate isomerase from liver.

Project description:Isopentenyl pyrophosphate isomerase (EC 5.3.3.2) was purified from extracts of pig liver by ammonium sulphate fractionation and by gel filtration. After about 20-fold purification the preparations were free of phosphatase and prenyltransferase (EC 2.5.1.1), the two enzymes that could have interfered with the assays. The isomerase has a distinct pH optimum at 6.0 and is activated by Mn(2+) in preference to Mg(2+). The K(m) value for isopentenyl pyrophosphate is 4x10(-6)m. The equilibrium of the reaction favours the formation of dimethylallyl pyrophosphate. The reversibility of the isomerase reaction was demonstrated directly by the formation of isopentenyl pyrophosphate from dimethylallyl pyrophosphate. It is suggested that two prenyl isomerases might exist, one involved in the synthesis of trans- and another in the synthesis of cis-polyprenyl substances.

Type-2 isopentenyl diphosphate isomerase: evidence for a stepwise mechanism.

Project description:Isopentenyl diphosphate isomerase (IDI) catalyzes the interconversion of isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP) and dimethylallyl diphosphate (DMAPP). These two molecules are the building blocks for construction of isoprenoid carbon skeletons in nature. Two structurally unrelated forms of IDI are known. A variety of studies support a proton addition/proton elimination mechanism for both enzymes. During studies with Thermus thermophilus IDI-2, we discovered that the olefinic hydrogens of a vinyl thiomethyl analogue of isopentenyl diphosphate exchanged with solvent when the enzyme was incubated with D(2)O without concomitant isomerization of the double bond. These results suggest that the enzyme-catalyzed isomerization reaction is not concerted.

Type II isopentenyl diphosphate isomerase: probing the mechanism with alkyne/allene diphosphate substrate analogues.

Project description:Isopentenyl diphosphate isomerase (IDI) catalyzes the interconversion of isopentenyl diphosphate (IPP) and dimethylallyl diphosphate (DMAPP), the basic five-carbon building blocks of isoprenoid molecules. Two structurally unrelated classes of IDIs are known. Type I IPP isomerase (IDI-1) utilizes a divalent metal in a protonation-deprotonation reaction. In contrast, the type II enzyme (IDI-2) requires reduced flavin, raising the possibility that the reaction catalyzed by IDI-2 involves the net addition or abstraction of a hydrogen atom. As part of our studies of the mechanism of isomerization for IDI-2, we synthesized allene and alkyne substrate analogues for the enzyme. These molecules are predicted to be substantially less reactive toward proton addition than IPP and DMAPP but have similar reactivities toward hydrogen atom addition. This prediction was verified by calculations of gas-phase heats of reaction for addition of a proton and of a hydrogen atom to 1-butyne (3) and 1,2-butadiene (4) to form the 1-buten-2-yl carbocation and radical, respectively, and related affinities for 2-methyl-1-butene (5) and 2-methyl-2-butene (6) using G3MP2B3 and CBS-QB3 protocols. Alkyne 1-OPP and allene 2-OPP were not substrates for Thermus thermophilus IDI-2 or Escherichia coli IDI-1 but instead were competitive inhibitors. The experimental and computational results are consistent with a protonation-deprotonation mechanism for the enzyme-catalyzed isomerization of IPP and DMAPP.
