This system is involved in N,N'-diacetylchitobiose transport. Publication Abstract from PubMed The solution structure of the complex of enzyme IIA of the N,N-diacetylchitobiose (Chb) transporter with the histidine phosphocarier protein HPr has been solved by NMR. The IIAChb-HPr complex completes the structure elucidation of representative cytoplasmic complexes for all four sugar branches of the bacterial phosphoryl transfer system (PTS). The active site His-89 of IIAChb was mutated to Glu to mimic the phosphorylated state. IIAChb(H89E) and HPr form a weak complex with a KD of ~0.7 mM. The interacting binding surfaces, concave for IIAChb and convex for HPr, complement each other in terms of shape, residue type and charge distribution, with predominantly hydrophobic residues, interspersed by some uncharged polar residues, located centrally, and polar and charged residues at the periphery. The active site histidine of HPr, His15, is buried within the active site cleft of IIAChb formed at the interface of two adjacent subunits of the IIAChb trimer, thereby coming into close proximity with the active site residue, H89E, of IIAChb. A His89-P-His15 pentacoordinate phosphoryl transition state can readily be modeled without necessitating any significant conformational changes, thereby facilitating rapid phosphoryl transfer. Comparison of the IIAChb-HPr complex with the IIAChb-IIBChb complex, as well as with other cytoplasmic complexes of the PTS, highlights a unifying mechanism for recognition of structurally diverse partners. This involves generating similar binding surfaces from entirely different underlying structural elements, large interaction surfaces coupled with extensive redundancy, and side chain conformational plasticity to optimize diverse sets of intermolecular interactions.
