Phosphoglycerate kinase (EC 2.7.2.3) catalyzes reversible phosphoryl trans-fer from 1,3-bisphosphoglycerate to ADP to synthesize 3-phosphoglycerate and ATP during glycolysis. Phosphoglycerate kinases from several sources can use GDP⁄GTP as alternative substrates to ADP⁄ATP; however, the maximal velocities (Vm) reached with the guanine nucleotides are 50% of those displayed with the adenine nucleotides. | Molecular basis of the unusual catalytic preference for GDP GTP in Entamoeba histolytica 3-phosphoglycerate kinase Rusely Encalada1 Arturo Rojo-Dominguez2 Jose S.

Phosphoglycerate kinases from several sources can use GDP GTP as alternative substrates to ADP ATP however the maximal velocities Em reached with the guanine nucleotides are 50 of those displayed with the adenine nucleotides. By contrast Entamoeba histolytica phosphoglycerate kinase EC 2.7.2.10 is the only reported phosphoglycerate kinase displaying higher activity with GDP GTP and lower affinities for the adenine nucleotides. To elucidate the molecular basis of the Entamoeba histolytica phosphoglycerate kinase selectivity for GDP GTP a conformational analysis was carried out on a homology model based on crystallographic structures of yeast and pig phosphoglycerate kinases. Some amino acid residues involved in the purine ring binding site not previously described were detected. .
