Publication Abstract from PubMedWe have determined the three-dimensional crystal structure of the protein encoded by the open reading frame YFL030w from Saccharomyces cerevisiae to a resolution of 2.6 A using single wavelength anomalous diffraction. YFL030w is a 385 amino-acid protein with sequence similarity to the aminotransferase family. The structure of the protein reveals a homodimer adopting the fold-type I of pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP)-dependent aminotransferases. The PLP co-factor is covalently bound to the active site in the crystal structure. The protein shows close structural resemblance with the human alanine:glyoxylate aminotransferase (EC 2.6.1.44), an enzyme involved in the hereditary kidney stone disease primary hyperoxaluria type 1. In this paper we show that YFL030w codes for an alanine:glyoxylate aminotransferase, highly specific for its amino donor and acceptor substrates.
