Human PRPS1 filaments stabilize allosteric sites to regulate activity
2022-06-27
Abstract excerpt
The universally conserved enzyme phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate synthetase (PRPS) assembles filaments in evolutionarily diverse organisms. PRPS is a key regulator of nucleotide metabolism, and mutations in the human enzyme PRPS1 lead to a spectrum of diseases. Here, we determine structures of PRPS1 filaments in active and inhibited states, with fixed assembly contacts accommodating both conformations. The conserved...
