'''Crystal Structure of Lipate-Protein Ligase A from Escherichia coli complexed with lipoic acid'''<br /> | '''Crystal Structure of Lipate-Protein Ligase A from Escherichia coli complexed with lipoic acid'''<br /> | ||
==Overview== | ==Overview== | ||
Lipoate-protein ligase A (LplA) catalyzes the formation of lipoyl-AMP from | Lipoate-protein ligase A (LplA) catalyzes the formation of lipoyl-AMP from lipoate and ATP and then transfers the lipoyl moiety to a specific lysine residue on the acyltransferase subunit of alpha-ketoacid dehydrogenase complexes and on H-protein of the glycine cleavage system. The lypoyllysine arm plays a pivotal role in the complexes by shuttling the reaction intermediate and reducing equivalents between the active sites of the components of the complexes. We have determined the X-ray crystal structures of Escherichia coli LplA alone and in a complex with lipoic acid at 2.4 and 2.9 angstroms resolution, respectively. The structure of LplA consists of a large N-terminal domain and a small C-terminal domain. The structure identifies the substrate binding pocket at the interface between the two domains. Lipoic acid is bound in a hydrophobic cavity in the N-terminal domain through hydrophobic interactions and a weak hydrogen bond between carboxyl group of lipoic acid and the Ser-72 or Arg-140 residue of LplA. No large conformational change was observed in the main chain structure upon the binding of lipoic acid. | ||
