ABSTRACT
Phosphopantetheine adenylyltransferase (EC. 2.7.7.3, PPAT) catalyzes the penultimate step of the multistep reaction in the coenzyme A (CoA) biosynthesis pathway. In this step, an adenylyl group from adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is transferred to 4'-phosphopantetheine (PNS) yielding 3'-dephospho-coenzyme A (dpCoA) and pyrophosphate (PPi). PPAT from strain C3 of Klebsiella pneumoniae (KpPPAT) was cloned, expressed and purified. It was crystallized using 0.1 M HEPES buffer and PEG10000 at pH 7.5. The crystals belonged to tetragonal space group P41212 with cell dimensions of a = b = 72.82 Å and c = 200.37 Å. The structure was determined using the molecular replacement method and refined to values of 0.208 and 0.255 for Rcryst and Rfree factors, respectively. The structure determination showed the presence of three crystallographically independent molecules A, B and C in the asymmetric unit. The molecules A and B are observed in the form of a dimer in the asymmetric unit while molecule C belongs to the second dimer whose partner is related by crystallographic twofold symmetry. The polypeptide chain of KpPPAT folds into a ß/α structure. The conformations of the side chains of several residues in the substrate binding site in KpPPAT are significantly different from those reported in other PPATs. As a result, the modes of binding of substrates, phosphopantetheine (PNS) and adenosine triphosphate (ATP) differ considerably. The binding studies using fluorescence spectroscopy indicated a KD value of 3.45 × 10-4 M for ATP which is significantly lower than the corresponding values reported for PPAT from other species.
