Articles Catalytic Cycling in Β-Phosphoglucomutase: a Kinetic
9404 Biochemistry 2005, 44, 9404-9416 Articles Catalytic Cycling in â-Phosphoglucomutase: A Kinetic and Structural Analysis†,‡ Guofeng Zhang, Jianying Dai, Liangbing Wang, and Debra Dunaway-Mariano* Department of Chemistry, UniVersity of New Mexico, Albuquerque, New Mexico 87131-0001 Lee W. Tremblay and Karen N. Allen* Department of Physiology and Biophysics, Boston UniVersity School of Medicine, Boston, Massachusetts 02118-2394 ReceiVed March 26, 2005; ReVised Manuscript ReceiVed May 18, 2005 ABSTRACT: Lactococcus lactis â-phosphoglucomutase (â-PGM) catalyzes the interconversion of â-D-glucose 1-phosphate (â-G1P) and â-D-glucose 6-phosphate (G6P), forming â-D-glucose 1,6-(bis)phosphate (â- G16P) as an intermediate. â-PGM conserves the core domain catalytic scaffold of the phosphatase branch of the HAD (haloalkanoic acid dehalogenase) enzyme superfamily, yet it has evolved to function as a mutase rather than as a phosphatase. This work was carried out to identify the structural basis underlying this diversification of function. In this paper, we examine â-PGM activation by the Mg2+ cofactor, â-PGM activation by Asp8 phosphorylation, and the role of cap domain closure in substrate discrimination. First, the 1.90 Å resolution X-ray crystal structure of the Mg2+-â-PGM complex is examined in the context of + + previously reported structures of the Mg2 -R-D-galactose-1-phosphate-â-PGM, Mg2 -phospho-â-PGM, and Mg2+-â-glucose-6-phosphate-1-phosphorane-â-PGM complexes to identify conformational changes that occur during catalytic turnover. The essential role of Asp8 in nucleophilic catalysis was confirmed by demonstrating that the D8A and D8E mutants are devoid of catalytic activity. -
Non-Homologous Isofunctional Enzymes: a Systematic Analysis Of
Omelchenko et al. Biology Direct 2010, 5:31 http://www.biology-direct.com/content/5/1/31 RESEARCH Open Access Non-homologousResearch isofunctional enzymes: A systematic analysis of alternative solutions in enzyme evolution Marina V Omelchenko, Michael Y Galperin*, Yuri I Wolf and Eugene V Koonin Abstract Background: Evolutionarily unrelated proteins that catalyze the same biochemical reactions are often referred to as analogous - as opposed to homologous - enzymes. The existence of numerous alternative, non-homologous enzyme isoforms presents an interesting evolutionary problem; it also complicates genome-based reconstruction of the metabolic pathways in a variety of organisms. In 1998, a systematic search for analogous enzymes resulted in the identification of 105 Enzyme Commission (EC) numbers that included two or more proteins without detectable sequence similarity to each other, including 34 EC nodes where proteins were known (or predicted) to have distinct structural folds, indicating independent evolutionary origins. In the past 12 years, many putative non-homologous isofunctional enzymes were identified in newly sequenced genomes. In addition, efforts in structural genomics resulted in a vastly improved structural coverage of proteomes, providing for definitive assessment of (non)homologous relationships between proteins. Results: We report the results of a comprehensive search for non-homologous isofunctional enzymes (NISE) that yielded 185 EC nodes with two or more experimentally characterized - or predicted - structurally unrelated proteins. Of these NISE sets, only 74 were from the original 1998 list. Structural assignments of the NISE show over-representation of proteins with the TIM barrel fold and the nucleotide-binding Rossmann fold. From the functional perspective, the set of NISE is enriched in hydrolases, particularly carbohydrate hydrolases, and in enzymes involved in defense against oxidative stress. -
The Regulation of Carbamoyl Phosphate Synthetase-Aspartate Transcarbamoylase-Dihydroorotase (Cad) by Phosphorylation and Protein-Protein Interactions
THE REGULATION OF CARBAMOYL PHOSPHATE SYNTHETASE-ASPARTATE TRANSCARBAMOYLASE-DIHYDROOROTASE (CAD) BY PHOSPHORYLATION AND PROTEIN-PROTEIN INTERACTIONS Eric M. Wauson A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Department of Pharmacology. Chapel Hill 2007 Approved by: Lee M. Graves, Ph.D. T. Kendall Harden, Ph.D. Gary L. Johnson, Ph.D. Aziz Sancar M.D., Ph.D. Beverly S. Mitchell, M.D. 2007 Eric M. Wauson ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii ABSTRACT Eric M. Wauson: The Regulation of Carbamoyl Phosphate Synthetase-Aspartate Transcarbamoylase-Dihydroorotase (CAD) by Phosphorylation and Protein-Protein Interactions (Under the direction of Lee M. Graves, Ph.D.) Pyrimidines have many important roles in cellular physiology, as they are used in the formation of DNA, RNA, phospholipids, and pyrimidine sugars. The first rate- limiting step in the de novo pyrimidine synthesis pathway is catalyzed by the carbamoyl phosphate synthetase II (CPSase II) part of the multienzymatic complex Carbamoyl phosphate synthetase, Aspartate transcarbamoylase, Dihydroorotase (CAD). CAD gene induction is highly correlated to cell proliferation. Additionally, CAD is allosterically inhibited or activated by uridine triphosphate (UTP) or phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate (PRPP), respectively. The phosphorylation of CAD by PKA and ERK has been reported to modulate the response of CAD to allosteric modulators. While there has been much speculation on the identity of CAD phosphorylation sites, no definitive identification of in vivo CAD phosphorylation sites has been performed. Therefore, we sought to determine the specific CAD residues phosphorylated by ERK and PKA in intact cells. -

The classification of prokaryotes, bacteria especially, is formally regulated by the International Committee on the Systematics of Prokaryotes and has experienced rapid change over the last fifty years. However, some feel that these rules could be even stricter for proper organization of taxonomy (Tindall et al., 2010). Problems occur with the integration of newer methodologies, which creates some challenges for the researcher attempting to publish a novel species. For example, some DNA sequences that are deposited in databases are not accurate (Clarridge, 2004). Taxonomy is an artificial system that works based on the intuition of scientists rather than strict, specific standards (Konstantinidis & Tiedje, 2005). Tindall advocates that a strain shown to be a novel taxon should be characterized “as comprehensively as possible” and abide by the framework established in the Bacteriological Code (2010). -
