Abstract
|
 |
|
A hypothetical protein encoded by the gene YjeE of Haemophilus influenzae was
selected as part of a structural genomics project for X-ray analysis to assist
with the functional assignment. The protein is considered essential to bacteria
because the gene is present in virtually all bacterial genomes but not in those
of archaea or eukaryotes. The amino acid sequence shows no homology to other
proteins except for the presence of the Walker A motif G-X-X-X-X-G-K-T that
indicates the possibility of a nucleotide-binding protein. The YjeE protein was
cloned, expressed, and the crystal structure determined by the MAD method at
1.7-A resolution. The protein has a nucleotide-binding fold with a four-stranded
parallel beta-sheet flanked by antiparallel beta-strands on each side. The
topology of the beta-sheet is unique among P-loop proteins and has features of
different families of enzymes. Crystallization of YjeE in the presence of ATP
and Mg2+ resulted in the structure with ADP bound in the P-loop. The ATPase
activity of YjeE was confirmed by kinetic measurements. The distribution of
conserved residues suggests that the protein may work as a "molecular
switch" triggered by ATP hydrolysis. The phylogenetic pattern of YjeE
suggests its involvement in cell wall biosynthesis.
