They are classified as either fatty acyl-AMP ligases (FAALs) or fatty acyl-CoA ligases (FACLs) based on sequence analysis. FadD10, involved in the synthesis of a virulence-related lipopeptide, was mis-annotated as a FACL, however, it is in fact a FAAL that transfers fatty acids to an acyl carrier protein (Rv0100). In this study, we have determined the structures of FadD10 in both the apo and the complexed form with dodecanoyl-AMP, where we see for the first time an adenylate-forming enzyme that does not adopt a closed conformation for catalysis. Indeed, this novel conformation of FadD10, facilitated by its unique inter-domain and intermolecular interactions, is critical for the enzyme to carry out the acyl transfer onto Rv0100 rather than Coenzyme A. This contradicts the existing model of FAALs that rely on an insertion motif for the acyl transferase specificity, and thus makes FadD10 a new type of FAAL. We have also characterized the fatty acid preference of FadD10 through biological and structural analyses, and the data indicate long chain saturated fatty acids as the biological substrates of the enzyme. Structures of Mtb FadD10 reveal a new type of Adenylate-forming enzyme.,Liu Z, Ioerger TR, Wang F, Sacchettini JC J Biol Chem. 2013 Apr 26.
