The crystal structure of d-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase from the hyperthermophilic archaeon Methanothermus fervidus in the presence of NADP(+) at 2.1 A resolution.

Abstract excerpt

The crystal structure of the glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (GAPDH) from the archaeon Methanothermus fervidus has been solved in the holo form at 2.1 A resolution by molecular replacement. Unlike bacterial and eukaryotic homologous enzymes which are strictly NAD(+)-dependent, GAPDH from this organism exhibits a dual-cofactor specificity, with a marked preference for NADP(+) over NAD(+). The present...
