The pyruvate phosphate dikinase (PPDK) ( EC 2.7.9.1) belongs to the class of enzymes Phoshphotransferasen and catalyzes the ATP -dependent phosphorylation of pyruvate to phosphoenolpyruvate .
PPDK was first described in grasses and the parasitic amoeba Entamoeba histolytica . Some mainly anaerobically living bacteria and protozoa use this reaction in the opposite direction, which forms pyruvate to produce ATP.
Catalyzed reaction
ATP , pyruvate and phosphate are converted to AMP , phosphoenolpyruvate (PEP) and diphosphate .
Structural functionality
Taking into account sequence homologies and structural data, the PPDK can be divided into three domains :
- Nucleotide binding domain
- Central phosphohistidine domain
- PEP / pyruvate binding domain
Within the nucleotide binding domain, 240 amino acid residues form an ATP-grasp , 340 residues of the C-terminal PEP / pyruvate binding domain form a so-called TIM barrel . The three domains are connected to one another via flexible linker peptides.
The distance between the nucleotide and the PEP / pyruvate binding domain is about 45 Å. A direct interaction of the two substrate binding domains is not possible over this distance. Instead, the phosphate transfer is made possible by a torsional movement of the phosphohistidine domain.
Function in C 4 plants
In C 4 plants , the PPDK is located in the chloroplasts of the mesophyll cells and there catalyzes the regeneration of the primary CO 2 acceptor phosphoenolpyruvate.
