hanging-drop vapor diffusion, crystal structures of the ADP and the ADP/4-carboxy-5-aminoimidazole ribonucleotide complexes of SAICAR synthetase. ADP and 4-carboxy-5-aminoimidazole ribonucleotide bind to the active site in association with three Mg2+, two of which coordinate the same oxygen atom of the 4-carboxyl group of CAIR, whereas, the third coordinates the alpha- and beta-phosphoryl groups of ADP. The polypeptide fold for residues 204-221 of the Escherichia coli structure differs significantly from those of the ligand-free SAICAR synthetase from Thermatoga maritima and the adenine nucleotide complexes of the synthetase from Saccharomyces cerevisiae
