TRANSKETOLASE COMPLEX WITH REACTION INTERMEDIATE
OverviewOverview
Kinetic and spectroscopic data indicated that addition of the donor, substrate hydroxypyruvate to the thiamin diphosphate (ThDP)-dependent, enzyme transketolase (TK) led to the accumulation of the, alpha-carbanion/enamine of (alpha,beta-dihydroxyethyl) ThDP, the key, reaction intermediate in enzymatic thiamin catalysis. The, three-dimensional structure of this intermediate trapped in the active, site of yeast TK was determined to 1.9-A resolution by using, cryocrystallography. The electron density suggests a planar, alpha-carbanion/enamine intermediate having the E-configuration. The, reaction intermediate is firmly held in place through direct hydrogen, bonds to His-103 and His-481 and an indirect hydrogen bond via a water, molecule to His-69. The 4-NH(2) group of the amino-pyrimidine ring of ThDP, is within 3 A distance to the alpha-hydroxy oxygen atom of the, dihydroxyethyl moiety but at an angle unfavorable for a strong hydrogen, bond. No structural changes occur in TK on formation of the reaction, intermediate, suggesting that the active site is poised for catalysis and, conformational changes during the enzyme reaction are not very likely. The, intermediate is present with high occupancy in both active sites, arguing, against previous proposals of half-of-the-sites reactivity in yeast TK.
