Abstract
beta-Ketoacyl-acyl carrier protein synthase III (FabH) is a condensing enzyme that plays central roles in fatty acid biosynthesis. Three-dimensional structures of E. coli FabH in the presence and absence of ligands have been refined to 1.46 A resolution. The structures of improved accuracy revealed detailed interactions involved in ligand binding. These structures also provided new insights into the FabH mechanism, e.g. the possible role of a water or hydroxyl anion in Cys112 deprotonation. A structure of the apo enzyme uncovered large conformational changes in the active site, exemplified by the disordering of four essential loops (84-86, 146-152, 185-217 and 305-307) and the movement of catalytic residues (Cys112 and His244). The disordering of the loops leads to greater than 50 % reduction in the FabH dimer interface, suggesting a dynamic nature for an unusually large portion of the dimer interface. The existence of a large solvent-accessible channel in the dimer interface as well as two cis-peptides (cis-Pro88 and cis-Phe308) in two of the disordered loops may explain the observed structural instabilities.

The extra density, centered at 2.3 Å from the Sg atom, could be a tightly bound water molecule or hydroxyl anion (OH -). (b) The density for a bound phosphate ion, also contoured at 1.5 s. Broken lines indicate the hydrogen bonds (distances labeled) between the phosphate ion and FabH.

Full text Abstract
Figure 2.
Fig. 2. Overall structure of E. coli FabH . A, ribbon diagram of the FabH monomer. The N-terminal (1-170) and C-terminal (171-317) halves have a similar fold. The core secondary structural elements are labeled as b1-b5 and a1-a3, respectively and referred in the text with a prefix of N or C to indicate the domain they belong to. These -sheet and -helices are drawn in magenta (N, b1-b5), cyan (N, a1-a3), red (C, b1-b5), and blue (C, a1-a3). N is the N terminus, which precedes N, b1. C is the C terminus, which comes off C, b5. Secondary elements of insertion regions are drawn in yellow and orange for N- and C-terminal domains, respectively. The catalytic Cys112 is shown in a red ball-and-stick drawing, and the CoA molecule (green) was taken from the acetyl-CoA complex structure to orient the view. B, stereo view of the superposition between the N-terminal (red) and C-terminal (blue) domains of FabH. Core -strands are labeled; the overlay was generated by matching the 33 -carbon pairs from four of the strands.
