==Overview==
==Overview==
Chloramphenicol (Cm), produced by the soil bacterium Streptomyces, venezuelae, is an inhibitor of bacterial ribosomal peptidyltransferase, activity. The Cm-producing streptomycete modifies the primary (C-3), hydroxyl of the antibiotic by a novel Cm-inactivating enzyme, chloramphenicol 3-O-phosphotransferase (CPT). Here we describe the crystal, structures of CPT in the absence and presence of bound substrates. The, enzyme is dimeric in a sulfate-free solution and tetramerization is, induced by ammonium sulfate, the crystallization precipitant. The, tetrameric quaternary structure exhibits crystallographic 222 symmetry and, has ATP binding pockets located at a crystallographic 2-fold axis. Steric, hindrance allows only one ATP to bind per dimer within the tetramer. In, addition to active site binding by Cm, an electron-dense feature, resembling the enzyme's product is found at the other subunit interface., The structures of CPT suggest that an aspartate acts as a general base to, accept a proton from the 3-hydroxyl of Cm, concurrent with nucleophilic, attack of the resulting oxyanion on the gamma-phosphate of ATP. Comparison, between liganded and substrate-free CPT structures highlights side chain, movements of the active site's Arg136 guanidinium group of &gt;9 A upon, substrate binding.
