Báo cáo khoa học: Structural and functional investigations of Ureaplasma parvum UMP kinase – a potential antibacterial drug target

The crystal structure of uridine monophosphate kinase (UMP kinase, UMPK) from the opportunistic pathogenUreaplasma parvumwas deter-mined and showed similar three-dimensional fold as other bacterial and archaeal UMPKs that all belong to the amino acid kinase family. | ỊFEBS Journal Structural and functional investigations of Ureaplasma parvum UMP kinase - a potential antibacterial drug target Louise Egeblad-Welin1 Martin Welin2 z Liya Wang1 and Staffan Eriksson1 1 Department of Anatomy Physiology and Biochemistry Swedish University of AgriculturalSciences Uppsala BiomedicalCentre Sweden 2 Department of Molecular Biology Swedish University of AgriculturalSciences Uppsala BiomedicalCentre Sweden Keywords bacterialUMP kinase Mollicutes mycoplasma subunit interaction Ureaplasma parvum Correspondence S.

Recombinant UpUMPK exhibited Michaelis-Menten kinetics with UMP with Km and Vmax values of 214 4 pM and 262 24 pmol-min-1-mg_1 respectively but with ATP as variable substrate the kinetic analysis showed positive cooperativity with an n value of 1.5 0.1. The end-product UTP was a competitive inhibitor against UMP and a noncompetitive inhibitor towards ATP. Unlike UMPKs from other bacteria which are activated by GTP GTP had no detectable effect on UpUMPK activity. An attempt to create a GTP-activated enzyme was made using site-directed mutagenesis. The mutant enzyme F133N F133 corresponds to the residue in Escherichia coli that is involved in GTP activation with F133A as a control were expressed purified and characterized. Both enzymes exhibited negative cooperativity with UMP and .
