Figure 4. Cooperative Structural Interactions Involving Phylogenetically Conserved Residues Stabilize Limiting Conformations of the g-Phosphate LinkerH bonds in the g-phosphate linker region identified based on having a heteroatom separation =< 3.4 Å are represented by dotted orange lines in the stereo pairs [57 and 58] showing:(a) The ATP-bound structure of HisP [16].(b) The Mg-ADP-bound structure of MJ0796 [21].(c) The Mg-ADP-bound structure of MJ1267.(d) One of the two NCS-related molecules in the pyrophosphate-bound structure of MalK [17].Residues with side chains participating in alternative H bonding networks with phylogenetically conserved Arg166 are shown in cyan. Relative to MJ1267, homologous residues in the g-phosphate linker region are offset by +1 in MJ0796, +11 in HisP, and -1 in MalK, and homologous residues in the C terminus of the ABCa subdomain are offset by -8 in MJ0796, +0 in HisP, and -14 in MalK
