Dear Adriana,

this depends on the enzyme i.e. does your enzyme hydrolyse the alpha-beta or beta-gamma bond?

If it hydrolyses the beta-gamma bond, options mentioned are indeed:

-AMPPNP (Adenylyl-imidodiphosphate)
-AMPPCP(β,γ-Methyleneadenosine 5′-triphosphate)*
*-AMPPP(S) (ATP-γ-S)
-ADP-BeFx
-ADP-AlFx

Beware though, by replacing the bridging beta-gamma oxygen in ATP to N (NH; AMPPNP) or C (CH2; AMPPCP) you loose (O to CH2) the possibility of forming or you reverse (O to NH; from acceptor to donor) a hydrogen bond here. Thus, the use of the latter two compounds can have adverse effects (and you do not want to get into an argument with a referee in the future). ATP-γ-S is probably the best option if, bound the the protein, hydrolysis is slow enough or the complex crystallizes fast enough (cold room!).

ADP-BeFx and ADP-AlFx could be options but again, the charge distribution is not equivalent to ATP and it requires additional amino acid side chains that coordinate the
AlFx or BeFx group.

Good luck,

Jeroen

Hi
What are good ATP non hydrolyzable analog for crystallization?

It is invariably the case that high resolution X-ray structures show significantly better agreement with solution observables such as coupling constants, 13C chemical shifts, and proton chemical shifts, than the corresponding NMR structures, including the very best ones. Hence, in most cases, a high-resolution crystal structure (< 2.0 Å)will provide a better description of the structure in solution than the corresponding NMR structure (Kuszewski, Gronenborn & Clore, 1996, Protein Science 5:1067-80)
