Structure of adenylation domain of Haemophilus influenzae DNA ligases bound to NAD+ in adenylated state.
Structural highlights
FunctionDNLJ_HAEIN DNA ligase that catalyzes the formation of phosphodiester linkages between 5'-phosphoryl and 3'-hydroxyl groups in double-stranded DNA using NAD as a coenzyme and as the energy source for the reaction. It is essential for DNA replication and repair of damaged DNA (By similarity). Publication Abstract from PubMedNAD+-dependent DNA ligases (LigA) are essential bacterial enzymes that catalyze phosphodiester bond formation during DNA replication and repair processes. Phosphodiester bond formation proceeds through a well-conserved 3-step reaction mechanism. In the first step, the LigA adenylation domain interacts with NAD+ to form a covalent enzyme-AMP. Although it is well-established that the specificity for binding of NAD+ resides within the adenylation domain, the precise recognition elements for the initial binding event remain unclear. We report here the structure of the adenylation domain from Haemophilus influenzae LigA. This structure is a first snapshot of a LigA-AMP intermediate with NAD+ bound to domain 1a in its open conformation. The binding affinities of NAD+ for adenylated and non-adenylated forms of the H. influenzae LigA adenylation domain were measured using isothermal titration calorimetry. NAD+ was only observed to bind to domain 1a and not domain 1b. The combined crystalographic and NAD+-binding data suggest that the initial recognition of NAD+ is via the NMN binding region in domain 1a of LigA.
