Crystal structure of isocitrate dehydrogenase from Ostreococcus tauri in complex with NAD+ and Mg2+
Structural highlights
Publication Abstract from PubMedNAD(+)-linked isocitrate dehydrogenases (NAD-IDHs) catalyze the oxidative decarboxylation of isocitrate into alpha-ketoglutarate. Previously, we identified a novel phylogenetic clade including NAD-IDHs from several algae in the type II subfamily, represented by homodimeric NAD-IDH from Ostreococcus tauri (OtIDH). However, due to its lack of a crystalline structure, the molecular mechanisms of the ligand binding and catalysis of OtIDH are little known. Here, we elucidate four high-resolution crystal structures of OtIDH in a ligand-free and various ligand-bound forms that capture at least three states in the catalytic cycle: open, semi-closed, and fully closed. Our results indicate that OtIDH shows several novel interactions with NAD(+), unlike type I NAD-IDHs, as well as a strictly conserved substrate binding mode that is similar to other homologs. The central roles of Lys283' in dual coenzyme recognition and Lys234 in catalysis were also revealed. In addition, the crystal structures obtained here also allow us to understand the catalytic mechanism. As expected, structural comparisons reveal that OtIDH has a very high structural similarity to eukaryotic NADP(+)-linked IDHs (NADP-IDHs) within the type II subfamily rather than with the previously reported NAD-IDHs within the type I subfamily. It has also been demonstrated that OtIDH exhibits substantial conformation changes upon ligand binding, similar to eukaryotic NADP-IDHs. These results unambiguously support our hypothesis that OtIDH and OtIDH-like homologs are possible evolutionary ancestors of eukaryotic NADP-IDHs in type II subfamily.
