Two PEP-utilizing enzymes function in vastly different biological contexts, yet both catalyze phosphoryl group transfer by shuttling a phosphohistidine residue between remote active centers. These enzymes utilize a swivel domain mechanism to deliver the phosphoryl group to the appropriate substrate. | |||
Pyruvate phosphate dikinase (PPDK), catalyzes the interconversion of PEP, AMP and PPi to pyruvate, ATP and Pi. The PEP/pyruvate bind in a site remotely located from the nucleotide and phosphate binding site. Enzyme I of the bacterial PEP:sugar phosphotransferase system (PTS), transfers the phosphoryl group of PEP to the next PTS protein, HPr. HPr~P then proceeds to phosphorylate a sugar specific permease responsible for the uptake of the incoming sugar. Again, PEP and HPR bind remotely from one another. | Pyruvate phosphate dikinase (PPDK), catalyzes the interconversion of PEP, AMP and PPi to pyruvate, ATP and Pi.
