Abstract
The structures of a new crystal form of free Escherichia coli uracil DNA glycosylase (UDG), containing four molecules in the asymmetric unit, and two forms of its complex with the proteinaceous inhibitor Ugi, containing two and four crystallographically independent complexes, have been determined. A comparison of these structures and the already known crystal structures containing UDG shows that the enzyme can be considered to be made up of two independently moving structural entities or domains. A detailed study of free and DNA-bound human enzyme strengthens this conclusion. The domains close upon binding to uracil-containing DNA, whereas they do not appear to do so upon binding to Ugi. The comparative study also shows that the mobility of the molecule involves the rigid-body movement of the domains superposed on flexibility within domains.

Figure 3 Delineation of domains in EcUDG. Domain 1 is in green and domain 2 is in red. The linker region is in purple. The axis about which the domains move during closure is also shown.
Figure 4.
Figure 4 Stereoview illustrating domain closure in EcUDG. Domain 1 of the free enzyme (dark) and that of the enzyme complexed with single-stranded DNA (light) are superposed. The axis about which the molecule has to rotate to bring domain 2 into superposition is perpendicular to the figure and is indicated by a ball.

Full text Abstract
Figure 3.
Figure 3. E. coli UDG: Ugi interface. (a) Stereo view of the Ugi solvent-accessible surface at the hydrophobic pocket (yellow) that binds the protruding E. coli UDG Leu191 side-chain (blue). The Leu191 conformation is dictated by steric interactions with Val43 and Met56. (b) Stereo view of the interactions between the DNA binding residues of E. coli UDG (green side-chains and grey C^α trace) and the Ugi β1 edge (gold). As in human UDG:DNA complexes [Slupphaug et al 1996 and Parikh et al 1998], this interface is fairly polar and hydrated and contains all of the DNA-phosphate mimicking interactions of Ugi. The uracil nucleotide recognition pocket is located beneath the Ugi Ile22 side-chain.

Figure 8. β-Zipper conformational changes in UDG. β-Zipper conformational change at the UDG topological switch point in the open (blue) and closed (green) conformations. In the open conformation observed in the E. coli UDG:Ugi complexes as well as unbound and Ugi bound human [Mol et al 1995a and Mol et al 1995b] and HSV [Savva et al 1995 and Savva and Pearl 1995b] enzymes, UDG Leu61 in β1 is not within hydrogen bonding distance of Leu162 and Trp164, and a water molecule is coordinated between the strands (large red sphere). In the closed conformation observed in human UDG:DNA complexes [Slupphaug et al 1996 and Parikh et al 1998], the central β-strands move together, extending the β-sheet connectivity and displacing the central water molecule.
