Dear Jacob, The protease thrombin is another example. Thrombin is activated by Na+ (but not Li+ or K+). We have shown using NMR that Na+ binding allosterically stabilizes active conformations of thrombin. Additionally, numerous crystal structures of Na+-free (“slow” thrombin) and Na+-bound

2018-01-09 Thread Andrew Mesecar
Dear Jacob, One of my favorite examples of monovalent cation discrimination is by the enzyme Pyruvate Kinase. It prefers K(+), NH4(+), Rb(+) and Tl+ for maximum catalysis and then activity falls off as the monovalent cation sizes get larger, Cs(+) or smaller Na(+) >> Li (+). The conformations

Dear Crystallographers, Is anyone aware of a soluble protein which changes large-scale conformation +/- Na+, and is specific for Na+ per se, or at least ignores K+ and Ca++? E.g., Rb+ or Li+ might be okay. Structural info would be a plus, but not a sine qua non. Similarly, what about with K+
