Comments
(3) Mg-2 and Mg-3 stabilize the negative charge on the leaving phosphate groups of ATP. The sidechains of Arg33 and Lys150 also stabilize the negative charge as well. The nucleophilic substitution reaction seems to be SN2-like.
This enzyme belongs to Nudix (nucleoside diphosphate linked to X) hydrolase superfamily.
The family of this enzyme (asymmetrical Ap4A hydrolase) can be subdivided into two groups: the "animal-type" group that includes the enzymes from animal and archaea, and the "plant-type" one that includes ones from plant and bacteria (see [5]). This enzyme belongs to the plant-type group. The animal-type enzymes correspond to the entry S00815 in EzCatDB.
In comparison with the structure of the animal type enzymes (S00815 in EzCatDB), Mg-3 is bound to the three phosphates of the leaving ATP, which are phosphates-1, -2 and -3 of substrate Ap4A. The catalytic water is bound to Mg-1, which is coordinated by Glu60, Glu64 and Glu130 (of 1f3y). Mg-2 is coordinated by mainchain carbonyl of Gln44, sidechain of Glu64, and phosphates-2 and -3.
The reaction of this enzyme may proceed as follows (see [5], [7] and [8]).
(1) Glu60 (of 1f3y) acts as a general base to deprotonate the water molecule, which is bound to Mg-1. Mg-1, which is bound to Glu60, Glu64 and Glu130, may lower the pKa of the catalytic water, so that it can be deprotonated easily.
(2) The activated water makes a nucleophilic attack on phosphate-4 of Ap4P.
