Crystal structure of Mycobacterium tuberculosis ketol-acid reductoisomerase in complex with Mg2+

Structural highlights
FunctionILVC_MYCTU Involved in the biosynthesis of branched-chain amino acids (BCAA). Catalyzes an alkyl-migration followed by a ketol-acid reduction of (S)-2-acetolactate (S2AL) to yield (R)-2,3-dihydroxy-isovalerate. In the isomerase reaction, S2AL is rearranged via a Mg-dependent methyl migration to produce 3-hydroxy-3-methyl-2-ketobutyrate (HMKB). In the reductase reaction, this 2-ketoacid undergoes a metal-dependent reduction by NADPH to yield (R)-2,3-dihydroxy-isovalerate. It is also able to use 3-hydroxypyruvate (HP).[1] See AlsoReferences
