  • Crystal structure of the unactivated ribulose 1, 5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase complexed with a Transition State Analog, 2-carboxy-D-arabinitol 1, 5-bisphosphate
    Protein science : a publication of the Protein Society, 1994
    Co-Authors: Kam Y. J. Zhang, Duilio Cascio, David Eisenberg
    Abstract:

    The crystal structure of unactivated ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase from Nicotiana tabacum complexed with a Transition State Analog, 2-carboxy-D-arabinitol 1,5-bisphosphate, was determined to 2.7 A resolution by X-ray crystallography. The Transition State Analog binds at the active site in an extended conformation. As compared to the binding of the same Analog in the activated enzyme, the Analog binds in a reverse orientation. The active site Lys 201 is within hydrogen bonding distance of the carboxyl oxygen of the Analog. Loop 6 (residues 330-339) remains open and flexible upon binding of the Analog in the unactivated enzyme, in contrast to the closed and ordered loop 6 in the activated enzyme complex. The Transition State Analog is exposed to solvent due to the open conformation of loop 6.

  • Vanadate-based Transition-State Analog inhibitors of Cre–LoxP recombination
    Biochemical and biophysical research communications, 2003
    Co-Authors: Shelley S. Martin, Shinichiro Wachi, Enoch P. Baldwin
    Abstract:

    Cre recombinase exchanges DNA strands at the LoxP recognition site via transphosphorylation reactions that involve pentacoordinate Transition States. We demonstrate that meta-vanadate ion (VO(3)(-)) and appropriate DNA substrates assemble a Transition-State Analog-like complex in the Cre active site. Meta-vanadate inhibits recombination of LoxP-derived oligonucleotide substrates that contain a gap at either or both scissile phosphates, but does not inhibit reactions with intact LoxP. The 3(')-hydroxyl group of the gapped substrate is required for inhibition, suggesting that vanadate is ligated by three oxo ligands. Assembly of the inhibited complex is slow (t(1/2)=19min at 4mM NaVO(3)) and requires Cre, substrates, and meta-vanadate. Holliday junction intermediates accumulated at lower meta-vanadate concentrations, suggesting that the second strand exchange is inhibited more readily than the first. The apparent K(D) for meta-vanadate is 1.5-2mM and binding shows positive cooperativity. This methodology may have general application for mechanistic studies of recombinase/topoisomerase-mediated strand exchange reactions.
