1f3z

OverviewOverview

In Escherichia coli, the glucose-specific phosphocarrier protein of the, phosphotransferase system (PTS), IIAGlc (IIIGlc in older literature), is, also the central regulatory protein of the PTS. Depending upon its state, of phosphorylation, IIAGlc binds to a number of different proteins that, display no apparent sequence homology. Previous structural studies, suggested that nonspecific hydrophobic interactions, specific salt, bridges, and an intermolecular Zn(II) binding site contribute to the wide, latitude in IIAGlc binding sites. Two new crystal forms of IIAGlc have, been solved at high resolution, and the models were compared to those, previously studied. The major intermolecular contacts in the crystals, differ in detail, but all involve the hydrophobic active site of IIAGlc, ... [(full description)]
