  ABSTRACT  
 
3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl-CoA (HMG-CoA) reductase is the rate-limiting enzyme and the first committed step in the biosynthesis of cholesterol in mammals. We have determined the crystal structures of two nonproductive ternary complexes of HMG-CoA reductase, HMG-CoA/NAD+ and mevalonate/NADH, at 2.8 A resolution. In the structure of the Pseudomonas mevalonii apoenzyme, the last 50 residues of the C terminus (the flap domain), including the catalytic residue His381, were not visible. The structures of the ternary complexes reported here reveal a substrate-induced closing of the flap domain that completes the active site and aligns the catalytic histidine proximal to the thioester of HMG-CoA. The structures also present evidence that Lys267 is critically involved in catalysis and provide insights into the catalytic mechanism.

Fig. 3. Scheme of the reaction mechanism proposed for P. mevalonii HMG-CoA reductase. The three steps of the reaction from HMG-CoA to mevalonate are shown, and the roles proposed for the key catalytic residues Lys267, Asp283, Glu83, and His381 are indicated.
Figure 4.
Fig. 4. Ball and stick diagrams of the HMG-CoA (a and b) and mevalonate (c) substrates in the active site of HMG-CoA reductase. The substrates are shown as stick models with C = orange, N = blue, O = red, and S = yellow. (a) Critical contacts with the enzyme (silver bonds) at the site of cleavage of HMG-CoA (green bonds). The thioester oxygen of the substrate points directly at Lys267, making a strong hydrogen bond with this newly identified catalytic residue. The contact between the catalytic His381 and His385, proposed to aid in the protonation of the CoAS^ group, also is shown. (b) The hydrogen bonding network that holds Lys267 in place. Shown are the first shell of hydrogen bond contacts that involve primarily positive and negatively charged residues. (c) Critical contacts of the catalytic residues with the mevalonate substrate. In this ternary complex, the tetrahedral carbon (C-5) points its OH toward one of the Glu83 carboxylic oxygens, suggesting a change in the primary contact of that oxygen after isomerization. This also suggests that Glu83 may be involved in accepting a proton from mevaldyl-CoA, which should have the same tetrahedral configuration for C-5. This figure was prepared with SETOR (20).

The most recent references are shown first. Citation data come partly from CiteXplore and partly from an automated harvesting procedure. Note that this is likely to be only a partial list as not all journals are covered by either method. However, we are continually building up the citation data so more and more references will be included with time. Where a reference describes a PDB structure, the PDB codes are shown on the right.
