| Description | The ATP-grasp superfamily currently includes 17 groups of enzymes, catalysing ATP-dependent ligation of a carboxylate containing molecule to an amino or thiol group-containing molecule [ ]. They contribute predominantly to macromolecular synthesis. ATP-hydrolysis is used to activate a substrate. For example, DD-ligase transfers phosphate from ATP to D-alanine on the first step of catalysis. On the second step the resulting acylphosphate is attacked by a second D-alanine to produce a DD dipeptide following phosphate elimination [].The ATP-grasp domain contains three conserved motifs, corresponding to the phosphate binding loop and the Mg(2+) binding site [ ]. The fold is characterised by two α-β subdomains that grasp the ATP molecule between them. Each subdomain provides a variable loop that forms a part of the active site, completed by region of other domains not conserved between the various ATP-grasp enzymes [].The ATP-grasp domain represented by this entry is found primarily in succinyl-CoA synthetases ( ). |
