| Abstract | We report the results of crystallographic difference maps at 3.0-A resolution of complexes of metal-nucleoside triphosphates with aspartate carbamoyltransferase (carbamoylphosphate:L-aspartate carbamoyltransferase, EC 2.1.3.2) from Escherichia coli. The complexes Gd3+-ATP, Al3+-ATP, and Gd3+-CTP bind to the allosteric effector domain of the enzyme in nearly the same orientation as the metal-free nucleotides. The result is consistent with kinetic observations of nearly identical allosteric efficacy of ATP and CTP and their complexes with cations. The effector Gd3+-GTP, however, binds in a distinctly different conformation and location than does 8-bromoguanosine 5'-triphosphate, reported in a separate investigation [Honzatko, R. B. & Lipscomb, W.N. (1982) J. Mol. Biol. 160, 265-286]. The difference in the binding modes of Gd3+-GTP and the bromo derivative suggests a possible mechanism for the relief of allosteric inhibition of GTP due to metal cations. We observe no binding of metal-nucleoside triphosphates in the region of the phosphate crevice of aspartate carbamoyltransferase, consistent with the reduced ability of metal nucleotides to compete with carbamoyl phosphate for the active site. However, a single Gd3+ ion binds in the region of the active site as evidenced by strong density. The binding of cations near the active site probably causes the inhibition of catalysis observed in kinetics experiments reported earlier [Honzatko, R.B., Lauritzen, A.M. & Lipscomb, W.N. (1981) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 78, 898-902]. |

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.
