Phospholipase D (PLD) family proteins degrade phospholipids and nucleic acids. In the current issue of Structure, Yuan et al. report crystal structures of lysosomal PLD3 and PLD4 with and without a single-stranded DNA substrate. Their manuscript reveals a catalytic ping-pong mechanism and explains how disease-associated mutations compromise PLD3/4 function.
磷酸酯酶 D(PLD)家族蛋白可降解磷脂和核酸。在本期的《结构》杂志中,袁等人报道了溶酶体 PLD3 和 PLD4 与其单链 DNA 底物结合和未结合的晶体结构。他们的论文揭示了一种催化乒乓机制,并解释了与疾病相关的突变如何影响 PLD3/4 的功能。
