structures with various combinations of ATP, ADP, Mg2+, hydrogencarbonate and aminoimidazole ribonucleotide in the active site. The binding involves interactions with the conserved residues Arg272, His274 and Lys348. The formation of a carboxyphosphate intermediate through ATP phosphoryl transfer is proposed, followed by carboxylation of AIR to give the product

hanging drop vapour diffusion of native enzyme, crystals of the native enzyme belong to space group C222(1) with unit cell dimensions of a = 93.4 A, b = 95.2 A and c = 120.6 A. Crystals of the enzyme/MgADP complex are grown by batch methods at room temperature with poly(ethylene glycol)8000 as precipitant. The crystals belong to the space group P1 with unit cell dimensions of a = 60.6 A, b = 92.1 A, c = 102.6 A, alpha = 66.1°, beta = 82.7° and gamma = 81.8°
