摘要

The crystal structure of the zinc enzyme Escherichia coli 2C-methyl-D-erythritol 2,4-cyclodiphosphate synthase in complex with cytidine 5′-diphosphate and Mn~(2+) has been determined to 1.8-A resolution. This enzyme is essential in E. coli and participates in the nonmeval-onate pathway of isoprenoid biosynthesis, a critical pathway present in some bacterial and apicomplexans but distinct from that used by mammals. Our analysis reveals a homotrimer, built around a β prism, carrying three active sites, each of which is formed in a cleft between pairs of subunits. Residues from two subunits recognize and bind the nucleotide in an active site that contains a Zn~(2+) with tetrahedral coordination. A Mn~(2+), with octahedral geometry, is positioned between the α and β phosphates acting in concert with the Zn~(2+) to align and polarize the substrate for catalysis. A high degree of sequence conservation for the enzymes from E. coli, Plasmodium falciparum, and Mycobacterium tuberculosis suggests similarities in secondary structure, subunit fold, quaternary structure, and active sites. Our model will therefore serve as a template to facilitate the structure-based design of potential antimicrobial agents targeting two of the most serious human diseases, tuberculosis and malaria.
