Crystal structure of C. albicans Thi5 complexed with PLPCrystal structure of C. albicans Thi5 complexed with PLP

Structural highlights 4esx is a 2 chain structure with sequence from Candida albicans WO-1. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance. Method: X-ray diffraction, Resolution 2.2Å Ligands: Resources: FirstGlance, OCA, PDBe, RCSB, PDBsum, ProSAT Function THI5_CANAW Responsible for the formation of the pyrimidine heterocycle in the thiamine biosynthesis pathway. Catalyzes the formation of hydroxymethylpyrimidine phosphate (HMP-P) from histidine and pyridoxal phosphate (PLP). The protein uses PLP and the active site histidine to form HMP-P, generating an inactive enzyme. The enzyme can only undergo a single turnover, which suggests it is a suicide enzyme.
