Protein-tyrosine phosphatase-like inositol polyphosphatases are microbial enzymes that catalyze the stepwise removal of one or more phosphates from highly phosphorylated myo-inositols via a relatively ordered pathway. To understand the substrate specificity and kinetic mechanism of these enzymes we have determined high resolution, single crystal, x-ray crystallographic structures of inactive Selenomonas ruminantium PhyA in complex with myo-inositol hexa-and pentakisphosphate. These structures provide the first glimpse of a myo-inositol polyphosphatase-ligand complex consistent with its known specificity and reveal novel features of the kinetic mechanism. To complement the structural studies, fluorescent binding assays have been developed and demonstrate that the K-d for this enzyme is several orders of magnitude lower than the K-m. Together with rapid kinetics data, these results suggest that the protein tyrosine phosphatase-like inositol polyphosphatases have a two-step, substrate-binding mechanism that facilitates catalysis.
