Abstract:
:Glycine residues are recognized as important structural determinants in nucleotide-binding domains of many enzymes. The functional significance of seven glycine residues invariant in all 22 eNTPDase sequences was therefore examined. Glycine-to-alanine mutants of eNTPDase3 were analyzed for nucleotidase activities and tertiary and quaternary structure changes. Mutations G98A and G183A had modest effects on ATPase and ADPase activities. The G141A mutation resulted in 4- to 5-fold decreased nucleotidase activity, while the G222A mutation decreased ATPase activity 20-fold, and ADPase activity 6-fold. Unlike the other five glycine mutants, the G263A and G462A mutations caused significant loss of nucleotidase activity which was observed concomitant with lower protein expression levels, large-scale changes in tertiary and quaternary protein structure, and decreased trafficking to the plasma membrane. Thus, these data identify glycine residues that are essential for enzymatic activity and the tertiary and quaternary structure of eNTPDase3. Further, two additional conserved regions in the eNTPDases are identified, apyrase conserved regions ACR1a and ACR4a, which may be involved in phosphate binding/hydrolysis and protein folding, respectively.
