Structure of a pyrophosphate-dependent phosphofructokinase from the Lyme disease spirochete Borrelia burgdorferi
OverviewOverview
The structure of the 60 kDa pyrophosphate (PP(i))-dependent, phosphofructokinase (PFK) from Borrelia burgdorferi has been solved and, refined (R(free) = 0.243) at 2.55 A resolution. The domain structure of, eubacterial ATP-dependent PFKs is conserved in B. burgdorferi PFK, and, there are three large insertions relative to E. coli PFK, including a, helical domain containing a hairpin structure that interacts with the, active site. Asp177, conserved in all PP(i) PFKs, negates the binding of, the alpha-phosphate group of ATP and likely contacts the essential Mg(2+), cation via a water molecule. Asn181 blocks the binding of the adenine, moiety of ATP. Lys203 hydrogen bonds to a sulfate anion that likely mimics, PP(i) substrate binding.
