G6PD is a multimeric enzyme that uses the cofactors β-D-glucose 6-phosphate (G6P) and "catalytic" NADP (NADPc), as well as a "structural" NADP (NADPs) located ∼25 Å from the active site, to generate NADPH. While X-ray crystallographic and biochemical studies have revealed a role for NADPs in maintaining the catalytic activity by stabilizing the multimeric G6PD conformation, other potential roles for NADPs have not been evaluated. Here, we determined the high resolution cryo-electron microscopy structures of human wild-type G6PD in the absence of bound ligands and a catalytic G6PD-D200N mutant bound to NADPc and NADPs in the absence or presence of G6P. A comparison of these structures, together with previously reported structures, reveals that the unliganded human G6PD forms a mixture of dimers and tetramers with similar overall folds, and binding of NADPs induces a structural ordering of a C-terminal extension region and allosterically regulates G6P binding and catalysis. These studies have implications for understanding G6PD deficiencies and for therapy of G6PD-mediated disorders. |
