Figure 3. Crystal Structures of Three TAP1-NBD Constructs with ATP
(A) TAP1-NBD D→N·ATP is a dimer with two ATP-Mg^2+ at the interface. The two NBDs, colored light and dark blue, are viewed from the TMDs looking down onto the NBDs. Important functional motifs are highlighted in one active site.
(B) NBDs from the three structures were superimposed via their ATPase subdomains (lighter shades). This demonstrates rigid-body motions of the helical subdomain (darker shades).
(C and D) σA-weighted 2F[o]–F[c] map, contoured at 1.3 σ, for the consensus (TAP1-NBD D→Q/Q→H) (C) and hybrid (TAP1-NBD D→N) (D) active sites. The putative hydrolytic water is labeled.
(E) The degenerate TAP1-NBD SG→AV/D→N signature motif structure (magenta) superimposed onto the consensus active site (green). Polar contacts from S621 of the consensus signature motif are shown.
(F) Stereoview of the superposition in (E), zooming in on the two residues that differ between the consensus (green) and degenerate (magenta) signature motifs. The van der Waals radii of V622 and a Mg^2+-coordinated water are shown with a dotted surface, demonstrating a steric clash.
