| Abstract: | Native zinc/cobalt-containing ATP sulfurylase (ATPS; EC 2.7.7.4; MgATP:
sulfate adenylyltransferase) from Desulfovibrio desulfuricans ATCC 27774 was
purified to homogeneity and crystallized. The orthorhombic crystals diffracted
to beyond 2.5 A ° resolution and the X-ray data collected should allow the
determination of the structure of the zinc-bound form of this ATPS. Although
previous biochemical studies of this protein indicated the presence of a homotrimer in solution, a dimer was found in the asymmetric unit. Elucidation of this structure will permit a better understanding of the role of the metal in the activity and stability of this family of enzymes. |
