Crystallization (Commentary)

Crystallization (Comment) Organism
structure of the cytoplasmic PAS domain, residues valine 251 to arginine 376. The metal-binding site comprises a single Zn2+ ion bound by the atoms Ndelta1 from His271, Odelta1 from Asp274, Ndelta1 from His364 and Oepsilon2 from Glu368 in a slightly distorted tetrahedral coordination geometry Staphylococcus aureus

Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
H271Y introducing the mutation into wild-type activates the WalKR regulon. Zn2+ is tetrahedrally-coordinated by four amino acids including H271. The H271Y mutation abrogates metal binding, increasing WalK kinase activity and WalR phosphorylation. The mutant strain shows increased lysostaphin and vancomycin sensitivity Staphylococcus aureus

Inhibitors

Inhibitors Comment Organism Structure
Zn2+ Zn2+ binding negatively regulates the WalKR regulon. Zn2+ binding directly influences the relative positioning of the PAS and catalytic domains of WalK Staphylococcus aureus
