  • PubMed Abstract: 

    Kinases that synthesize inositol phosphates (IPs) and pyrophosphates (PP-IPs) control numerous biological processes in eukaryotic cells. Herein, we extend this cellular signaling repertoire to viruses. We have biochemically and structurally characterized a minimalist inositol phosphate kinase (i.e., TvIPK) encoded by Terrestrivirus, a nucleocytoplasmic large ("giant") DNA virus (NCLDV). We show that TvIPK can synthesize inositol pyrophosphates from a range of scyllo- and myo-IPs, both in vitro and when expressed in yeast cells. We present multiple crystal structures of enzyme/substrate/nucleotide complexes with individual resolutions from 1.95 to 2.6 Å. We find a heart-shaped ligand binding pocket comprising an array of positively charged and flexible side chains, underlying the observed substrate diversity. A crucial arginine residue in a conserved "G-loop" orients the γ-phosphate of ATP to allow substrate pyrophosphorylation. We highlight additional conserved catalytic and architectural features in TvIPK, and support their importance through site-directed mutagenesis. We propose that NCLDV inositol phosphate kinases may have assisted evolution of inositol pyrophosphate signaling, and we discuss the potential biogeochemical significance of TvIPK in soil niches.
