Method: X-ray diffraction, Resolution 2.3Å Ligands: AMP, TAD, TIA Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function TOXA_PSEAE An NAD-dependent ADP-ribosyltransferase (ADPRT). Catalyzes the transfer of the ADP ribosyl moiety of oxidized NAD (NAD(+)) onto eukaryotic elongation factor 2 (eEF-2) thus arresting protein synthesis. Has an LD(50) of 65 ng/ml against the human lung epithelial cell line C38. Publication Abstract from PubMed The catalytic, or third domain of Pseudomonas exotoxin A (PEIII) catalyzes the transfer of ADP ribose from nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide (NAD) to elongation factor-2 in eukaryotic cells, inhibiting protein synthesis. We have determined the structure of PEIII crystallized in the presence of NAD to define the site of binding and mechanism of activation. However, NAD undergoes a slow hydrolysis and the crystal structure revealed only the hydrolysis products, AMP and nicotinamide, bound to the enzyme. To better define the site of NAD binding, we have now crystallized PEIII in the presence of a less hydrolyzable NAD analog, beta-methylene-thiazole-4-carboxamide adenine dinucleotide (beta-TAD), and refined the complex structure at 2.3 angstroms resolution. There are two independent molecules of PEIII in the crystal, and the conformations of beta-TAD show some differences in the two binding sites. The beta-TAD attached to molecule 2 appears to have been hydrolyzed between the pyrophosphate and the nicotinamide ribose. However molecule 1 binds to an intact beta-TAD and has no crystal packing contacts in the vicinity of the binding site, so that the observed conformation and interaction with the PEIII most likely resembles that of NAD bound to PEIII in solution. We have compared this complex with the catalytic domains of diphtheria toxin, heat labile enterotoxin, and pertussis toxin, all three of which it closely resembles.
