Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance. Method: X-ray diffraction, Resolution 1.66Å Ligands: CMP Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function CRP_ECOLI This protein complexes with cyclic AMP and binds to specific DNA sites near the promoter to regulate the transcription of several catabolite-sensitive operons. The protein induces a severe bend in the DNA. Acts as a negative regulator of its own synthesis as well as for adenylate cyclase (cyaA), which generates cAMP.

Publication Abstract from PubMed The X-ray crystal structure of the cAMP-liganded D138L mutant of Escherichia coli catabolite gene activator protein (CAP) was determined at a resolution of 1.66A. This high resolution crystal structure reveals four cAMP binding sites in the homodimer. Two anti conformations of cAMPs (anti-cAMP) locate between the beta-barrel and the C-helix of each subunit; two syn conformations of cAMPs (syn-cAMP) bind on the surface of the C-terminal domain. With two syn-cAMP molecules bound, the D138L CAP is highly symmetrical with both subunits assuming a "closed" conformation. These differences make the hinge region of the mutant more flexible. Protease susceptibility measurements indicate that D138L is more susceptible to proteases than that of wild type (WT) CAP. The results of protein dynamic experiments (H/D exchange measurements) indicate that the structure of D138L mutant is more dynamic than that of WT CAP, which may impact the recognition of specific DNA sequences.
