One‐ and two‐dimensional NMR studies of yeast phosphoglycerate kinase

One- and two-dimensional proton NMR studies have been carried out on yeast phosphoglycerate kinase (Mr approximately 45,000) in order to identify amino-acid spin systems and obtain sequence-specific assignments. A number of sequence-specific assignments have been made using a combination of structural information contained in nuclear Overhauser effect spectra and X-ray crystallographic data. The results of substrate binding studies (both 3-phosphoglycerate and Mg.ATP), which indicate mutual reorientation of certain assigned aromatic residues in the inter-domain region of the protein, are discussed.
