Abstract
The enzyme ForT catalyzes C–C bond formation between 5′-phosphoribosyl-1′-pyrophosphate (PRPP) and 4-amino-1H-pyrazole-3,5-dicarboxylate to make a key intermediate in the biosynthesis of formycin A 5′-phosphate by Streptomyces kaniharaensis.
We report the 2.5 Å resolution structure of the ForT/PRPP complex and
locate active site residues critical for PRPP recognition and catalysis.
