| Abstract | In an x-ray diffraction study by the isomorphous replacement method, the structure of the complex of aspartate carbamoyltransferase (EC 2.1.3.2) bound to the bisubstrate analogue N-(phosphonacetyl)-L-aspartate has been solved to 2.9-A resolution (R = 0.24). The large quaternary structural changes previously deduced by molecular replacement methods have been confirmed: the two catalytic trimers (c3) move apart by 12 A and mutually reorient by 10 degrees, and the regulatory dimers (r2) reorient each about its twofold axis by about 15 degrees. In this, the T-to-R transition, new polar interactions develop between equatorial domains of c chains and the Zn domain of r chains. Within the c chain the two domains, one binding the phosphonate moiety (polar) and the other binding the aspartate moiety (equatorial) of the inhibitor N-(phosphonacetyl)-L-aspartate, move closer together. The Lys-84 loop makes a large relocation so that this residue and Ser-80 bind to the inhibitor of an adjacent catalytic chain within c3. A very large change in tertiary structure brings the 230-245 loop nearer the active site, allowing Arg-229 and Gln-231 to bind to the inhibitor. His-134 is close to the carbonyl group of the inhibitor, and Ser-52 is adjacent to its phosphonate group. However, no evidence exists in the literature for phosphorylation of serine in the mechanism. Residues studied by other methods, including Cys-47, Tyr-165, Lys-232, and Tyr-240, are too far from the inhibitor to have a direct interaction. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
