Journal: Biomolecules / Year: 2023 Title: The Allosteric Regulation of Β-Ureidopropionase Depends on Fine-Tuned Stability of Active-Site Loops and Subunit Interfaces.

This involves shifts in the equilibrium of the oligomeric states of the enzyme, but how these are achieved and result in changes in enzyme catalytic competence has yet to be determined. Here, the regulation of human β-ureidopropionase was further explored via site-directed mutagenesis, inhibition studies, and cryo-electron microscopy. The active-site residue E207, as well as H173 and H307 located at the dimer-dimer interface, are shown to play crucial roles in enzyme activation. Dimer association to larger assemblies requires closure of active-site loops, which positions the catalytically crucial E207 stably in the active site. H173 and H307 likely respond to ligand-induced changes in their environment with changes in their protonation states, which fine-tunes the active-site loop stability and the strength of dimer-dimer interfaces and explains the previously observed pH influence on the oligomer equilibrium. The correlation between substrate analogue structure and effect on enzyme assembly suggests that the ability to favourably interact with F205 may distinguish activators from inhibitors. The cryo-EM structure of human β-ureidopropionase assembly obtained at low pH provides first insights into the architecture of its activated state. and validates our current model of the allosteric regulation mechanism. Closed entrance loop conformations and dimer-dimer interfaces are highly conserved between human and fruit fly enzymes.
In the structure databanks used in Yorodumi, some data are registered as the other names, "COVID-19 virus" and "2019-nCoV". Here are the details of the virus and the list of structure data.

EMDB accession codes are about to change! (news from PDBe EMDB page)
The allocation of 4 digits for EMDB accession codes will soon come to an end. Whilst these codes will remain in use, new EMDB accession codes will include an additional digit and will expand incrementally as the available range of codes is exhausted. The current 4-digit format prefixed with “EMD-” (i.e. EMD-XXXX) will advance to a 5-digit format (i.e. EMD-XXXXX), and so on. It is currently estimated that the 4-digit codes will be depleted around Spring 2019, at which point the 5-digit format will come into force.
The EM Navigator/Yorodumi systems omit the EMD- prefix.

Yorodumi is a browser for structure data from EMDB, PDB, SASBDB, etc.
This page is also the successor to EM Navigator detail page, and also detail information page/front-end page for Omokage search.
The word "yorodu" (or yorozu) is an old Japanese word meaning "ten thousand". "mi" (miru) is to see.
