FunctionNADE_STAAC Catalyzes the ATP-dependent amidation of deamido-NAD to form NAD. Uses ammonia as a nitrogen source. Publication Abstract from PubMedNAD synthetase (NadE) catalyzes the last step in NAD biosynthesis, transforming deamido-NAD(+) into NAD(+) by a two-step reaction with co-substrates ATP and amide donor ammonia. In this study, we report the crystal structure of Staphylococcus aureus NAD synthetase enzyme (saNadE) at 2.3 A resolution. We used this structure to perform molecular dynamics simulations of apo-enzyme, enzyme-substrate (NadE with ATP and NaAD) and enzyme-intermediate complexes (NadE with NaAD-AMP) to investigate key binding interactions and explore the conformational transitions and flexibility of the binding pocket. Our results show large shift of N-terminal region in substrate bound form which is important for ATP binding. Substrates drive the correlated movement of loop regions surrounding it as well as some regions distal to the active site and stabilize them at complex state. Principal component analysis of atomic projections distinguish feasible trajectories to delineate distinct motions in enzyme-substrate to enzyme-intermediate states. Our results suggest mixed binding involving dominant induced fit and conformational selection. MD simulation extracted ensembles of NadE could potentially be utilized for in silico screening and structure based design of more effective Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) inhibitors.
