'''Crystal structure of glycinamide ribonucleotide transformylase in complex with Mg-AMPPCP'''<br />
'''Crystal structure of glycinamide ribonucleotide transformylase in complex with Mg-AMPPCP'''<br />


==Overview==
==Overview==
PurT-encoded glycinamide ribonucleotide transformylase, or PurT, transformylase, functions in purine biosynthesis by catalyzing the, formylation of glycinamide ribonucleotide through a catalytic mechanism, requiring Mg(2+)ATP and formate. From previous x-ray diffraction analyses, it has been demonstrated that PurT transformylase from Escherichia coli, belongs to the ATP-grasp superfamily of enzymes, which are characterized, by three structural motifs referred to as the A-, B-, and C-domains. In, all of the ATP-grasp enzymes studied to date, the adenosine nucleotide, ligands are invariably wedged between the B- and C-domains, and in some, cases, such as biotin carboxylase and carbamoyl phosphate synthetase, the, B-domains move significantly upon nucleotide binding. Here we present a, systematic and high-resolution structural investigation of PurT, transformylase complexed with various adenosine nucleotides or nucleotide, analogs including Mg(2+)ATP, Mg(2+)-5'-adenylylimidodiphosphate, Mg(2+)-beta,gamma-methyleneadenosine 5'-triphosphate, Mg(2+)ATPgammaS, or, Mg(2+)ADP. Taken together, these studies indicate that the conformation of, the so-called "T-loop," delineated by Lys-155 to Gln-165, is highly, sensitive to the chemical identity of the nucleotide situated in the, binding pocket. This sensitivity to nucleotide identity is in sharp, contrast to that observed for the "P-loop"-containing enzymes, in which, the conformation of the binding motif is virtually unchanged in the, presence or absence of nucleotides.
