Crystallization (Commentary)

Crystallization (Comment) Organism
hanging-drop vapour-diffusion method. Crystal structures of the enzyme in unbound form, in complex with acetyl-coenzyme A and in complex with both AcCoA and the end product UDP-GlcNAc, determined and refined to 2.3, 2.5, and 1.75 A, respectively. GlmU molecule is organized in two separate domains connected via a long alpha-helical linker and associates as a trimer, with the 50-A-long left-handed beta-helix (LbH) C-terminal domains packed against each other in a parallel fashion and the C-terminal region extended far away from the LbH core and exchanged with the beta-helix from a neighboring subunit in the trimer. AcCoA binding induces the formation of a long and narrow tunnel, enclosed between two adjacent LbH domains and the interchanged C-terminal region of the third subunit, giving rise to an original active site architecture at the junction of three subunits Streptococcus pneumoniae
