CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF PSPF(1-275) R168A MUTANT
|
OverviewOverview
Activators of bacterial sigma54-RNA polymerase holoenzyme are, mechanochemical proteins that use adenosine triphosphate (ATP) hydrolysis, to activate transcription. We have determined by cryogenic electron, microscopy (cryo-EM) a 20 angstrom resolution structure of an activator, phage shock protein F [PspF(1-275)], which is bound to an ATP transition, state analog in complex with its basal factor, sigma54. By fitting the, crystal structure of PspF(1-275) at 1.75 angstroms into the EM map, we, identified two loops involved in binding sigma54. Comparing, enhancer-binding structures in different nucleotide states and mutational, analysis led us to propose nucleotide-dependent conformational changes, that free the loops for association with sigma54.
