== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/VBHT_BARSR VBHT_BARSR] Toxic component of a toxin-antitoxin (TA) module VbhT-VbhA. Adenylyltransferase involved in virulence by mediating the addition of adenosine 5'-monophosphate (AMP) to specific residue of host GTPases. The resulting AMPylation affects GTPases, impairing actin assembly in infected cells.

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
The ubiquitous FIC domain is evolutionarily conserved from bacteria to human and has been shown to catalyze AMP transfer onto protein side-chain hydroxyl groups. Recently, it was predicted that most catalytically competent Fic proteins are inhibited by the presence of an inhibitory helix alphainh that is provided by a cognate anti-toxin (class I), or is part of the N- or C-terminal part of the Fic protein itself (classes II and III). In vitro, inhibition is relieved by mutation of a conserved glutamate of alphainh to glycine. For the class III bacterial Fic protein NmFic from Neisseria meningitidis, the inhibitory mechanism has been elucidated. Here, we extend above study by including bacterial class I and II Fic proteins VbhT from Bartonella schoenbuchensis and SoFic from Shewanella oneidensis, respectively, and the respective E-&gt;G mutants. Comparative enzymatic and crystallographic analyses show that, in all three classes, the ATP substrate binds to the wild-type FIC domains, but with the alpha-phosphate in disparate and non-competent orientations. In the E-&gt;G mutants, however, the tri-phosphate moiety is found reorganized to the same tightly bound structure through a unique set of hydrogen bonds with Fic signature motif residues. The gamma-phosphate adopts the location that is taken by the inhibitory glutamate in wild-type resulting in an alpha-phosphate orientation that can be attacked in-line by a target side-chain hydroxyl group. The latter is properly registered to the Fic active center by main-chain beta-interactions with the beta-hairpin flap. These data indicate that the active site motif and the exposed edge of the flap are both required to form an adenylylation-competent Fic protein.
