metabolism | to adapt to environments with variable nitrogen sources and richness, the widely distributed homotrimeric PII signalling proteins bind their allosteric effectors ADP/ATP/2-oxoglutarate, and experience nitrogen-sensitive uridylylation of their flexible T-loops at Tyr51 by enzyme GlnD, regulating their interactions with effector proteins | Escherichia coli |
additional information | crystal structure determination and analysis at 1.9 A resolution of the purified Escherichia coli GlnB (EcGlnB) PII protein in fully uridylylated form (EcGlnB-UMP3), structure-function analysis, overview. The T-loop is not visible. Unlike crystalline non-uridylylated EcGlnB, in which T-loops are fixed, uridylylation renders the T-loop highly mobile because of loss of contacts mediated by Tyr51, with concomitant abolition of T-loop anchoring via Arg38 on the ATP site. Analysis of mechanisms of PII selectivity for ATP and of PII-UMP3 signalling, proposing a model for the architecture of the complex of EcGlnBUMP3 with the uridylylation-sensitive PII target ATase (which adenylylates/deadenylylates glutamine synthetase [GS]) and with GS. Good X-ray diffracting crystals of trigonal shape and good size are obtained with fully uridylylated EcGlnB only when ATP, MgCl2 and 2-oxolutarate are present | Escherichia coli |
