Flexible NAD<sup>+</sup> Binding in Deoxyhypusine Synthase Reflects the Dynamic Hypusine Modification of Translation Factor IF5A

The eukaryotic and archaeal translation factor IF5A requires a post-translational hypusine modification, which is catalyzed by deoxyhypusine synthase (DHS) at a single lysine residue of IF5A with NAD<sup>+</sup> and spermidine as cofactors, followed by hydroxylation to form hypusine. Whi...
