Abstract
The crystal structure of a conserved domain of nonstructural protein 3 (nsP3) from severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) has been solved by single-wavelength anomalous dispersion to 1.4 A resolution. The structure of this "X" domain, seen in many single-stranded RNA viruses, reveals a three-layered alpha/beta/alpha core with a macro-H2A-like fold. The putative active site is a solvent-exposed cleft that is conserved in its three structural homologs, yeast Ymx7, Archeoglobus fulgidus AF1521, and Er58 from E. coli. Its sequence is similar to yeast YBR022W (also known as Poa1P), a known phosphatase that acts on ADP-ribose-1''-phosphate (Appr-1''-p). The SARS nsP3 domain readily removes the 1'' phosphate group from Appr-1''-p in in vitro assays, confirming its phosphatase activity. Sequence and structure comparison of all known macro-H2A domains combined with available functional data suggests that proteins of this superfamily form an emerging group of nucleotide phosphatases that dephosphorylate Appr-1''-p.

Figure 2. Structure of SARS ADRP
(A) Ribbon representation of the SARS nsP3 ADRP monomer. The two glycine-rich loops are shown in yellow. Secondary structures are colored from blue (N) to red (C terminus). Helices are numbered H1-H6, and b strands are numbered from 1 to 8.
(B) The SARS ADRP dimer observed between the B and D subunits in the asymmetric unit. The four conserved segments are colored red in each subunit; the conserved histidines and asparagines at the active site are shown as ball-and-sticks.
