Abstract
To understand the molecular basis of a phosphoryl transfer reaction catalyzed by the 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase domain of the hypoxia-inducible bifunctional enzyme 6-phosphofructo-2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase (PFKFB3), the crystal structures of PFKFB3AMPPCPfructose-6-phosphate and PFKFB3ADPphosphoenolpyruvate complexes were determined to 2.7 A and 2.25 A resolution, respectively. Kinetic studies on the wild-type and site-directed mutant proteins were carried out to confirm the structural observations. The experimentally varied liganding states in the active pocket cause no significant conformational changes. In the pseudo-substrate complex, a strong direct interaction between AMPPCP and fructose-6-phosphate (Fru-6-P) is found. By virtue of this direct substrate-substrate interaction, Fru-6-P is aligned with AMPPCP in an orientation and proximity most suitable for a direct transfer of the gamma-phosphate moiety to 2-OH of Fru-6-P. The three key atoms involved in the phosphoryl transfer, the beta,gamma-phosphate bridge oxygen atom, the gamma-phosphorus atom, and the 2-OH group are positioned in a single line, suggesting a direct phosphoryl transfer without formation of a phosphoenzyme intermediate. In addition, the distance between 2-OH and gamma-phosphorus allows the gamma-phosphate oxygen atoms to serve as a general base catalyst to induce an "associative" phosphoryl transfer mechanism. The site-directed mutant study and inhibition kinetics suggest that this reaction will be catalyzed most efficiently by the protein when the substrates bind to the active pocket in an ordered manner in which ATP binds first.

Figure 3. A cartoon of the suggested catalytic pathway. In the clockwise direction, 2-OH of Fru-6-P is deprotonated by the γ-phosphate moiety of ATP and a nucleophilic attack occurs. An intermediate pentavalent phosphorane is formed, and the negative charges generated on the planary oxygen atoms are stabilized by Lys47, Lys168, and Mg^2+, and maybe a H^+ extracted from 2-OH. Redistribution of the phosphorane electrons breaks a diester bond between the bridge oxygen and γ-phosphorus atoms. The leaving group is stabilized by a H^+. Eventually, the leaving group (ADP) is stabilized through a salt-bridge to Lys168 to finish the reaction.

(b) A stereo view of the interactions of PEP with the 2-Kase active site pocket is shown. The dotted lines represent hydrogen bonds or salt-bridges. To show its position in the 2-Kase active pocket, the structure of PFKFB3 radical dot AMPPCP radical dot Fru-6-P complex is superposed and Fru-6-P (light gray) is shown.
