Glutamine synthetase (GS) of Rhodopseudomonas sphaeroides is regulated by adenylylation and deadenylylation. The extent of adenylylation/deadenylylation of the enzyme in cell free extracts was influenced by inorganic phosphate (P i), -ketoglutarate, ATP and other nucleotides. While P i and -ketoglutarate stimulated deadenylylation, ATP and other nucleotides enhanced adenylylation of the GS. By using proper combinations of the effectors and incubation conditions, any desired adenylylation state of GS could be adjusted in vitro. The enzyme was purified to electrophoretic homogenity by three steps including affinity chromatography on 5-AMP-Sepharose. Adenylylated and deadenylylated enzyme showed different UV-spectra and isoelectric points. The native enzyme had a molecular weight of 600,000, deadenylylated subunits of 50,000±1,000. Electron microscopic investigations revealed a dodecameric arrangement of subunits in two hexameric planes.  相似文献

Lanthanide luminescence was used to examine the effects of posttranslational adenylylation on the metal binding sites of Escherichia coli glutamine synthetase (GS). These studies revealed the presence of two lanthanide ion binding sites of GS of either adenylylation extrema. Individual emission decay lifetimes were obtained in both H2O and D2O solvent systems, allowing for the determination of the number of water molecules coordinated to each bound Eu3+. The results indicate that there are 4.3 +/- 0.5 and 4.6 +/- 0.5 water molecules coordinated to Eu3+ bound to the n1 site of unadenylylated enzyme, GS0, and fully adenylylated enzyme, GS12, respectively, and that there are 2.6 +/- 0.5 water molecules coordinated to Eu3+ at site n2 for both GS0 and GS12. Energy transfer measurements between the lanthanide donor-acceptor pair Eu3+ and Nd3+, obtained an intermetal distance measurement of 12.1 +/- 1.5 A. Distances between a Tb3+ ion at site n2 and tryptophan residues were also performed with the use of single-tryptophan mutant forms of E. coli GS. The dissociation constant for lanthanide ion binding to site n1 was observed to decrease from Kd = 0.35 +/- 0.09 microM for GS0 to Kd = 0.06 +/- 0.02 microM for GS12. The dissociation constant for lanthanide ion binding to site n2 remained unchanged as a function of adenylylation state; Kd = 3.8 +/- 0.9 microM and Kd = 2.6 +/- 0.7 microM for GS0 and GS12, respectively. Competition experiments indicate that Mn2+ affinity at site n1 decreases as a function of increasing adenylylation state, from Kd = 0.05 +/- 0.02 microM for GS0 to Kd = 0.35 +/- 0.09 microM for GS12. Mn2+ affinity at site n2 remains unchanged (Kd = 5.3 +/- 1.3 microM for GS0 and Kd = 4.0 +/- 1.0 microM for GS12). The observed divalent metal ion affinities, which are affected by the adenylylation state, agrees with other steady-state substrate experiments (Abell LM, Villafranca JJ, 1991, Biochemistry 30:1413-1418), supporting the hypothesis that adenylylation regulates GS by altering substrate and metal ion affinities.  相似文献

Glutamine synthetase (GS, EC 6.3.1.2) and glutamate synthase (GOGAT, EC 1.4.1.13) were purified from Sclerotinia sclerotiorum and some of their properties studied. The GS transferase and biosynthetic activities, as well as GOGAT activity, were sensitive to feedback inhibition by amino acids and other metabolites. GS showed a marked dependence on ADP in the transferase reaction and on ATP in the Mg2+-dependent biosynthetic reaction. Regulation of GS activity by adenylylation/deadenylylation was demonstrated by snake venom phosphodiesterase treatment of the purified enzyme. GOGAT required NADPH as an electron donor; NADH was inactive. GOGAT was strongly inhibited by p-chloromercuribenzoate and the inhibition was reversed by cysteine. The enzyme was also markedly inhibited by o-phenanthroline, 2,2′-bipyridyl and azaserine. l-Methionine-dl-sulphoximine (MSX) and azaserine inhibited the incorporation of 15N-labelled ammonium sulphate into washed cells of S. sclerotiorum. MSX and azaserine respectively also inhibited purified GS and GOGAT activities. GDH activity was not detected in cell-extracts. Thus the GS/GOGAT pathway is the main route for the assimilation of ammonium compounds in this fungus.  相似文献

Numerous bacterial pathogens subvert cellular functions of eukaryotic host cells by the injection of effector proteins via dedicated secretion systems. The type IV secretion system (T4SS) effector protein BepA from Bartonella henselae is composed of an N‐terminal Fic domain and a C‐terminal Bartonella intracellular delivery domain, the latter being responsible for T4SS‐mediated translocation into host cells. A proteolysis resistant fragment (residues 10–302) that includes the Fic domain shows autoadenylylation activity and adenylyl transfer onto Hela cell extract proteins as demonstrated by autoradiography on incubation with α‐[32P]‐ATP. Its crystal structure, determined to 2.9‐Å resolution by the SeMet‐SAD method, exhibits the canonical Fic fold including the HPFxxGNGRxxR signature motif with several elaborations in loop regions and an additional β‐rich domain at the C‐terminus. On crystal soaking with ATP/Mg2+, additional electron density indicated the presence of a PPi/Mg2+ moiety, the side product of the adenylylation reaction, in the anion binding nest of the signature motif. On the basis of this information and that of the recent structure of IbpA(Fic2) in complex with the eukaryotic target protein Cdc42, we present a detailed model for the ternary complex of Fic with the two substrates, ATP/Mg2+ and target tyrosine. The model is consistent with an in‐line nucleophilic attack of the deprotonated side‐chain hydroxyl group onto the α‐phosphorus of the nucleotide to accomplish AMP transfer. Furthermore, a general, sequence‐independent mechanism of target positioning through antiparallel β‐strand interactions between enzyme and target is suggested.  相似文献

Many high-throughput small RNA next-generation sequencing protocols use 5′ preadenylylated DNA oligonucleotide adapters during cDNA library preparation. Preadenylylation of the DNA adapter''s 5′ end frees from ATP-dependence the ligation of the adapter to RNA collections, thereby avoiding ATP-dependent side reactions. However, preadenylylation of the DNA adapters can be costly and difficult. The currently available method for chemical adenylylation of DNA adapters is inefficient and uses techniques not typically practiced in laboratories profiling cellular RNA expression. An alternative enzymatic method using a commercial RNA ligase was recently introduced, but this enzyme works best as a stoichiometric adenylylating reagent rather than a catalyst and can therefore prove costly when several variant adapters are needed or during scale-up or high-throughput adenylylation procedures. Here, we describe a simple, scalable, and highly efficient method for the 5′ adenylylation of DNA oligonucleotides using the thermostable RNA ligase 1 from bacteriophage TS2126. Adapters with 3′ blocking groups are adenylylated at >95% yield at catalytic enzyme-to-adapter ratios and need not be gel purified before ligation to RNA acceptors. Experimental conditions are also reported that enable DNA adapters with free 3′ ends to be 5′ adenylylated at >90% efficiency.  相似文献

Derived from an ancient ATP-hydrolyzing Rossmann-like fold protein, members of the PP-loop ATP pyrophosphatase family feature an absolutely conserved P-loop-like “SxGxDS/T” motif used for binding and presenting ATP for substrate adenylylation (AMPylation). Since the first family member was reported more than 20 years ago, numerous representatives catalyzing very diverse reactions have been characterized both functionally and structurally. The availability of more than 100 high quality structures in the protein data bank provides an excellent opportunity to gain structural insights into the generally conserved catalytic mechanism and the uniqueness of the reactions catalyzed by family members. In this work, we conducted a thorough database search for the PP-loop ATP pyrophosphatase family members, resulting in the most comprehensive and up-to-date collection that includes 18 enzyme families. Structure comparison of representative family members allowed us to identify common structure features in the core catalytic domain, as well as four highly variable regions that define the unique chemistry for each enzyme family. The newly identified enzymes, particularly those from pathogens, warrant further research to enlarge the scope of this ever-expanding and highly diverse enzyme superfamily for use in potential bioengineering and biomedical applications.  相似文献
