We recorded several types of heteronuclear three-dimensional (3D) NMR spectra on 15N-enriched and 13C/15N-enriched histidine-containing phosphocarrier protein, HPr, to extend the backbone assignments [van Nuland, N. A. J., van Dijk, A. A., Dijkstra, K., van Hoesel, F. H. J., Scheek, R. M. & Robillard, G. T. (1992) Eur. J. Biochem, 203, 483-491] to the side-chain 1H,15N and 13C resonances. From both 3D heteronuclear 1H-NOE 1H-13C and 1H-NOE 1H-15N multiple-quantum coherence (3D-NOESY-HMQC) and two-dimensional (2D) homonuclear NOE spectra, more than 1200 NOE were identified and used in a step-wise structure refinement process using distance geometry and restrained molecular dynamics involving a number of new features. A cluster of nine structures, each satisfying the set of NOE restraints, resulted from this procedure. The average root-mean-square positional difference for the C alpha atoms is less than 0.12 nm. The secondary structure topology of the molecule is that of an open-face beta sandwich formed by four antiparallel beta strands packed against three alpha helices, resembling the recently published structure of Bacillus subtilis HPr, determined by X-ray crystallography [Herzberg, O., Reddy, P., Sutrina, S., Saier, M. H., Reizer, J. & Kapafia, G. (1992) Proc. Natl, Acad. Sci. USA 89, 2499-2503).

D010731 Phosphoenolpyruvate Sugar Phosphotransferase System The bacterial sugar phosphotransferase system (PTS) that catalyzes the transfer of the phosphoryl group from phosphoenolpyruvate to its sugar substrates (the PTS sugars) concomitant with the translocation of these sugars across the bacterial membrane. The phosphorylation of a given sugar requires four proteins, two general proteins, Enzyme I and HPr and a pair of sugar-specific proteins designated as the Enzyme II complex. The PTS has also been implicated in the induction of synthesis of some catabolic enzyme systems required for the utilization of sugars that are not substrates of the PTS as well as the regulation of the activity of ADENYLYL CYCLASES.
