PLAAT3 and PLAAT4 are enzymes involved in the synthesis of bioactive lipids, with structural similarities but differences in activity and specificity. Research shows that PLAAT3 has less protein dynamics and lower activity in specific loops, and swapping these loops can increase PLAAT3 activity. Despite structural similarity, substantially different protein dynamics between PLAAT variants can help explain their activity and specificity differences.
Phospholipase A/acyltransferase 3 (PLAAT3) and PLAAT4 are enzymes involved in the synthesis of bioactive lipids. Despite sequential and structural similarities, the two enzymes differ in activity and specificity. The relation between the activity and dynamics of the N-terminal domains of PLAAT3 and PLAAT4 was studied. PLAAT3 has a much higher melting temperature and exhibits less nanosecond and millisecond dynamics in the active site, in particular in loop L2(B6), as shown by NMR spectroscopy and molecular dynamics calculations. Swapping the L2(B6) loops between the two PLAAT enzymes results in strongly increased phospholipase activity in PLAAT3 but no reduction in PLAAT4 activity, indicating that this loop contributes to the low activity of PLAAT3. The results show that, despite structural similarity, protein dynamics differ substantially between the PLAAT variants, which can help to explain the activity and specificity differences.
