Function

O27985_ARCFU A9WSF5_RENSM Catalyzes the conjugation of the 1'-hydroxyl group of D-myo-inositol-3-phosphate (also named L-myo-inositol-1-phosphate) with a lipid tail of cytidine diphosphate diacylglycerol (CDP-DAG), forming phosphatidylinositol phosphate (PIP) and CMP. PIP is a precursor of phosphatidylinositol (PI) which is an essential lipid required for cell wall formation.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_02241]

Publication Abstract from PubMed

Phosphatidylinositol is critical for intracellular signalling and anchoring of carbohydrates and proteins to outer cellular membranes. The defining step in phosphatidylinositol biosynthesis is catalysed by CDP-alcohol phosphotransferases, transmembrane enzymes that use CDP-diacylglycerol as donor substrate for this reaction, and either inositol in eukaryotes or inositol phosphate in prokaryotes as the acceptor alcohol. Here we report the structures of a related enzyme, the phosphatidylinositol-phosphate synthase from Renibacterium salmoninarum, with and without bound CDP-diacylglycerol to 3.6 and 2.5 A resolution, respectively. These structures reveal the location of the acceptor site, and the molecular determinants of substrate specificity and catalysis. Functional characterization of the 40%-identical ortholog from Mycobacterium tuberculosis, a potential target for the development of novel anti-tuberculosis drugs, supports the proposed mechanism of substrate binding and catalysis. This work therefore provides a structural and functional framework to understand the mechanism of phosphatidylinositol-phosphate biosynthesis.
