title: Coordination scheme and stereochemical configuration of manganese(II) adenosine 5'-diphosphate at the active site of 3-phosphoglycerate kinase.
abstract: The structure of the MnIIADP complex at the active site of 3-phosphoglycerate kinase from yeast has been investigated by electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy. Inhomogeneous broadening in the EPR signals for Mn(II) resulting from unresolved superhyperfine coupling to 17O regiospecifically incorporated into ADP shows that Mn(II) is coordinated to the alpha- and beta-phosphate groups of ADP at the active site of the enzyme. The EPR pattern for the enzyme-MnIIADP complex is characteristic of a predominantly axially symmetric zero-field splitting tensor. The symmetry and magnitude of the zero-field splitting interaction suggest that there is an additional negatively charged oxygen ligand in the coordination sphere of Mn(II). EPR measurements for solutions of the enzyme-MnIIADP complex in 17O-enriched water indicate that there are also two or three water molecules in the coordination sphere of the metal ion. EPR data for complexes with the two epimers of [alpha-17O]ADP have been used to determine the stereochemical configuration of the MnIIADP complex at the active site. EPR spectra for Mn(II) in the enzymic complex with (Rp)-[alpha-17O]ADP show an inhomogeneous broadening due to superhyperfine coupling with 17O whereas spectra for (Sp)-[alpha-17O]ADP complexes are indistinguishable from those for matched samples with unlabeled ADP. These results show that 3-phosphoglycerate kinase selectivity binds the alpha configuration of the alpha, beta chelate of MnIIADP. Addition of 3-phosphoglycerate to form the dead-end complex (enzyme-MnIIADP-3-phosphoglycerate) does not alter the EPR spectrum, but addition of vanadate to this complex causes marked changes in the spectral parameters.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
