Bacterial enhancer-binding proteins (EBP) activate transcription by, hydrolyzing ATP to restructure the sigma(54)-RNA polymerase-promoter, complex. We compare six high resolution structures (<2.1 A) of the AAA(+), domain of EBP phage shock protein F (PspF) including apo, AMPPNP, Mg(2+)-ATP, and ADP forms. These structures permit a description of the, atomic details underpinning the origins of the conformational changes, occurring during ATP hydrolysis. Conserved regions of PspF's AAA(+) domain, respond distinctively to nucleotide binding and hydrolysis, suggesting, functional roles during the hydrolysis cycle, which completely agree with, those derived from activities of PspF mutated at these positions. We, propose a putative atomic switch that is responsible for coupling, structural . | Bacterial enhancer-binding proteins (EBP) activate transcription by, hydrolyzing ATP to restructure the sigma(54)-RNA polymerase-promoter, complex.

We, propose a putative atomic switch that is responsible for coupling, structural changes in the nucleotide-binding site to the repositioning of, the sigma(54)-interacting loops. Striking similarities in, nucleotide-specific conformational changes and atomic switch exist between, PspF and the large T antigen helicase, suggesting conservation in the, origin of those events amongst AAA(+) proteins. | ||
