The phosphocarrier protein III(Glc) is an integral component of the bacterial phosphotransferase (PTS) system. Unphosphorylated III(Glc) inhibits non-PTS carbohydrate transport systems by binding to diverse target proteins. The crystal structure at 2.6 angstrom resolution of one of the targets, glycerol kinase (GK), in complex with unphosphorylated III(Glc), glycerol, and adenosine diphosphate was determined. GK contains a region that is topologically identical to the adenosine triphosphate binding domains of hexokinase, the 70-kD heat shock cognate, and actin. III(Glc) binds far from the catalytic site of GK, indicating that long-range conformational changes mediate the inhibition of GK by III(Glc). GK and III(Glc) are bound by hydrophobic and electrostatic interactions, with only one hydrogen bond involving an uncharged group. The phosphorylation site of III(Glc), His90, is buried in a hydrophobic environment formed by the active site region of III(Glc) and a 3(10) helix of GK, suggesting that phosphorylation prevents III(Glc) binding to GK by directly disrupting protein-protein interactions.
