The white-rot fungus Phanerochaete chrysosporium has two intracellular beta-glucosidases (BGL1A and BGL1B) belonging to glycoside hydrolase (GH) family 1. BGL1B effectively hydrolyzes cellobiose and cellobionolactone, but BGL1A does not. We have determined the crystal structure of BGL1A in substrate-free and gluconolactone complexed forms. The overall structure and the characteristic of subsite -1 (glycone site) were similar to those of other known GH1 enzymes. The loop regions covering on the (beta/alpha)(8) barrel was significantly deviated, and they form a unique subsite +1 (aglycone site) of BGL1A.  相似文献

Human cytosolic beta-glucosidase (hCBG) is a xenobiotic-metabolizing enzyme that hydrolyses certain flavonoid glucosides, with specificity depending on the aglycone moiety, the type of sugar and the linkage between them. In this study, the substrate preference of this enzyme was investigated by mutational analysis, X-ray crystallography and homology modelling. The crystal structure of hCBG was solved by the molecular replacement method and refined at 2.7 A resolution. The main-chain fold of the enzyme belongs to the (beta/alpha)(8) barrel structure, which is common to family 1 glycoside hydrolases. The active site is located at the bottom of a pocket (about 16 A deep) formed by large surface loops, surrounding the C termini of the barrel of beta-strands. As for all the clan of GH-A enzymes, the two catalytic glutamate residues are located on strand 4 (the acid/base Glu165) and on strand 7 (the nucleophile Glu373). Although many features of hCBG were shown to be very similar to previously described enzymes from this family, crucial differences were observed in the surface loops surrounding the aglycone binding site, and these are likely to strongly influence the substrate specificity. The positioning of a substrate molecule (quercetin-4'-glucoside) by homology modelling revealed that hydrophobic interactions dominate the binding of the aglycone moiety. In particular, Val168, Trp345, Phe225, Phe179, Phe334 and Phe433 were identified as likely to be important in determining substrate specificity in hCBG, and site-directed mutagenesis supported a key role for some of these residues.  相似文献

The exopolysaccharide, Botryosphaeran, produced by the ligninolytic, ascomyceteous fungus Botryosphaeria sp., was isolated from the extracellular fluid by precipitation with ethanol, and purified by gel permeation chromatography to yield a carbohydrate-rich fraction (96%) composed mainly of glucose (98%). Infra-red and 13C NMR spectroscopy showed that all the glucosidic linkages were in the beta-configuration. Data from methylation analysis and Smith degradation indicated that Botryosphaeran was a (1-->3)-beta-D-glucan with approx 22% side branching at C-6. The products obtained from partial acid hydrolysis demonstrated that the side branches consisted of single (1-->6)-beta-linked glucosyl, and (1-->6)-beta-linked gentiobiosyl residues.  相似文献

The title pentasaccharide was synthesized via a 2+3 strategy. The disaccharide donor, 3-O-acetyl-2-O-benzoyl-4,6-O-benzylidene-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-->3)-2-O-benzoyl-4,6-O-benzylidene-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl trichloroacetimidate (8), was obtained by selective coupling of allyl 2-O-benzoyl-4,6-O-benzylidene-alpha-D-glucopyranoside with 3-O-acetyl-2-O-benzoyl-4,6-O-benzylidene-alpha-D-glucopyranosyl trichloroacetimidate (4), followed by deallylation, and trichloroacetimidation. Meanwhile, the trisaccharide acceptor, allyl 2-O-benzoyl-4,6-O-benzylidene-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-->3)-2-O-benzoyl-4,6-O-benzylidene-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-->3)-2-O-benzoyl-4,6-O-benzylidene-beta-D-glucopyranoside (12), was prepared by coupling of allyl 2-O-benzoyl-4,6-O-benzylidene-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-(1-->3)-2-O-benzoyl-4,6-O-benzylidene-beta-D-glucopyranoside with 4, followed by deacetylation. Condensation of 8 with 12, followed by epoxidation, and deprotection, gave the target pentaoside.  相似文献

The transglycosylation reactions catalyzed by beta-1,3-D-glucanases (laminaranases) were used to synthesize a number of 4-methylumbelliferyl (MeUmb) (1-->3)-beta-D-gluco-oligosaccharides having the common structure [beta-D-Glcp-(1-->3)](n)-beta-D-Glcp-MeUmb, where n=1-5. The beta-1,3-D-glucanases used were purified from the culture liquid of Oerskovia sp. and from a homogenate of the marine mollusc Spisula sachalinensis. Laminaran and curdlan were used as (1-->3)-beta-D-glucan donor substrates, while MeUmb-beta-D-glucoside (MeUmbGlcp) was employed as a transglycosylation acceptor. Modification of [beta-D-Glcp-(1-->3)](2)-beta-D-Glcp-MeUmb (MeUmbG(3)) gives 4,6-O-benzylidene-D-glucopyranosyl or 4,6-O-ethylidene-D-glucopyranosyl groups at the non-reducing end of artificial oligosaccharides. The structures of all oligosaccharides obtained were solved by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopy and electrospray tandem mass spectrometry. The synthetic oligosaccharides were shown to be substrates for a beta-1,3-1,4-D-glucanase from Rhodothermus marinus, which releases MeUmb from beta-di- and beta-triglucosides and from acetal-protected beta-triglucosides. When acting upon substrates with d.p.>3, the enzyme exhibits an endolytic activity, primarily cleaving off MeUmbGlcp and MeUmbG(2).  相似文献

Proteins belonging to the glycoside hydrolase family 63 (GH63) are found in bacteria, archaea, and eukaryotes. Eukaryotic GH63 proteins are processing α-glucosidase I enzymes that hydrolyze an oligosaccharide precursor of eukaryotic N-linked glycoproteins. In contrast, the functions of the bacterial and archaeal GH63 proteins are unclear. Here we determined the crystal structure of a bacterial GH63 enzyme, Escherichia coli K12 YgjK, at 1.78 Å resolution and investigated some properties of the enzyme. YgjK consists of the N-domain and the A-domain, joined by a linker region. The N-domain is composed of 18 antiparallel β-strands and is classified as a super-β-sandwich. The A-domain contains 16 α-helices, 12 of which form an (α/α)6-barrel; the remaining 4 α-helices are found in an extra structural unit that we designated as the A′-region. YgjK, a member of the glycoside hydrolase clan GH-G, shares structural similarity with glucoamylase (GH15) and chitobiose phosphorylase (GH65), both of which belong to clan GH-L. In crystal structures of YgjK in complex with glucose, mannose, and galactose, all of the glucose, mannose, and galactose units were located in the catalytic cleft. YgjK showed the highest activity for the α-1,3-glucosidic linkage of nigerose, but also hydrolyzed trehalose, kojibiose, and maltooligosaccharides from maltose to maltoheptaose, although the activities were low. These findings suggest that YgjK is a glucosidase with relaxed specificity for sugars.  相似文献

The celB gene of Caldicellulosiruptor saccharolyticus was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli to create a recombinant biocatalyst for hydrolyzing lignocellulosic biomass at high temperature. The GH5 domain of CelB hydrolyzed 4-nitrophenyl-β-d-cellobioside and carboxymethyl cellulose with optimum activity at pH 4.7-5.5 and 80 °C. The recombinant GH5 and CBM3-GH5 constructs were both stable at 80 °C with half-lives of 23 h and 39 h, respectively, and retained >94% activity after 48 h at 70 °C. Enzymatic hydrolysis of corn stover and cellulose pretreated with the ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate showed that GH5 and CBM3-GH5 primarily produce cellobiose, with product yields for CBM3-GH5 being 1.2- to 2-fold higher than those for GH5. Confocal microscopy of bound protein on cellulose confirmed tighter binding of CBM3-GH5 to cellulose than GH5, indicating that the enhancement of enzymatic activity on solid substrates may be due to the substrate binding activity of CBM3 domain.  相似文献

A model isopropyl alpha-glycoside of the beta-d-ManNAc-(1-->4)-d-Glc disaccharide has been prepared from lactose, avoiding the beta-mannosaminylation step. Three complementary approaches involving first the preparation and then the glycosidation of beta-thiophenyl donors of the protected disaccharides, (a) beta-d-ManNAc-(1-->4)-d-Glc, (b) beta-d-TalNAc-(1-->4)-d-Glc and (c) lactose, were compared. The best results were obtained employing a suitably protected lactose donor, and submitting its alpha-isopropyl glycoside to an amination with inversion in position 2' followed by an epimerization at C-4'.  相似文献

The genomes of myonecrotic strains of Clostridium perfringens encode a large number of secreted glycoside hydrolases. The activities of these enzymes are consistent with degradation of the mucosal layer of the human gastrointestinal tract, glycosaminoglycans and other cellular glycans found throughout the body. In many cases this is thought to aid in the propagation of the major toxins produced by C. perfringens. One such example is the family 84 glycoside hydrolases, which contains five C. perfringens members (CpGH84A-E), each displaying a unique modular architecture. The smallest and most extensively studied member, CpGH84C, comprises an N-terminal catalytic domain with β-N-acetylglucosaminidase activity, a family 32 carbohydrate-binding module, a family 82 X-module (X82) of unknown function, and a fibronectin type-III-like module. Here we present the structure of the X82 module from CpGH84C, determined by both NMR spectroscopy and X-ray crystallography. CpGH84C X82 adopts a jell-roll fold comprising two β-sheets formed by nine β-strands. CpGH84C X82 displays distant amino acid sequence identity yet close structural similarity to the cohesin modules of cellulolytic anaerobic bacteria. Cohesin modules are responsible for the assembly of numerous hydrolytic enzymes in a cellulose-degrading multi-enzyme complex, termed the cellulosome, through a high-affinity interaction with the calcium-binding dockerin module. A planar surface is located on the face of the CpGH84 X82 structure that corresponds to the dockerin-binding region of cellulolytic cohesin modules and has the approximate dimensions to accommodate a dockerin module. The presence of cohesin-like X82 modules in glycoside hydrolases of C. perfringens is an indication that the formation of novel X82-dockerin mediated multi-enzyme complexes, with potential roles in pathogenesis, is possible.  相似文献

The structures of rice BGlu1 β-glucosidase, a plant β-glucosidase active in hydrolyzing cell wall-derived oligosaccharides, and its covalent intermediate with 2-deoxy-2-fluoroglucoside have been solved at 2.2 Å and 1.55 Å resolution, respectively. The structures were similar to the known structures of other glycosyl hydrolase family 1 (GH1) β-glucosidases, but showed several differences in the loops around the active site, which lead to an open active site with a narrow slot at the bottom, compatible with the hydrolysis of long β-1,4-linked oligosaccharides. Though this active site structure is somewhat similar to that of the Paenibacillus polymyxa β-glucosidase B, which hydrolyzes similar oligosaccharides, molecular docking studies indicate that the residues interacting with the substrate beyond the conserved -1 site are completely different, reflecting the independent evolution of plant and microbial GH1 exo-β-glucanase/β-glucosidases. The complex with the 2-fluoroglucoside included a glycerol molecule, which appears to be in a position to make a nucleophilic attack on the anomeric carbon in a transglycosylation reaction. The coordination of the hydroxyl groups suggests that sugars are positioned as acceptors for transglycosylation by their interactions with E176, the catalytic acid/base, and Y131, which is conserved in barley BGQ60/β-II β-glucosidase, that has oligosaccharide hydrolysis and transglycosylation activity similar to rice BGlu1. As the rice and barley enzymes have different preferences for cellobiose and cellotriose, residues that appeared to interact with docked oligosaccharides were mutated to those of the barley enzyme to see if the relative activities of rice BGlu1 toward these substrates could be changed to those of BGQ60. Although no single residue appeared to be responsible for these differences, I179, N190 and N245 did appear to interact with the substrates.  相似文献

Aqueous ethanol extracts from brown seaweed were found to contain substances inhibiting endo-(1-->3)-beta-D-glucanases, the digestive enzymes of marine mollusks. The inhibitors were detected in 70% of the brown seaweeds investigated. An irreversible protein inhibitor with high specificity for endo-(1-->3)-beta-D-glucanases of marine mollusks was isolated from the brown seaweed, Laminaria cichorioides. As determined by gel filtration, the molecular weight of the inhibitor was 46 kDa. The value of [I]50 (10(-8) M) for the inhibitor was comparable with the corresponding value for natural alpha-amylase inhibitors from terrestrial plants. Chemical modification results indicated that tryptophan, dicarboxylic acid, histidine and probably tyrosine residues of inhibitor molecule are important for interaction of the inhibitor with the enzyme.  相似文献

α-L-Rhamnosidase (EC 3.2.1.40) catalyzes the hydrolytic release of rhamnose from polysaccharides and glycosides. Bacillus sp. GL1 α-L-rhamnosidase (RhaB), a member of glycoside hydrolase (GH) family 78, is responsible for degrading the bacterial biofilm gellan, and also functions as a debittering agent for citrus fruit in the food and beverage industries through the release of rhamnose from plant glycoside, naringin. The X-ray crystal structure of RhaB was determined by single-wavelength anomalous diffraction using a selenomethionine derivative and refined at 1.9 Å resolution with a final R-factor of 18.2%. As is seen in the homodimeric form of the active enzyme, the structure of RhaB in crystal packing is a homodimer containing 1908 amino acids (residues 3-956), 43 glycerol molecules, four calcium ions, and 1755 water molecules. The overall structure consists of five domains, four of which are β-sandwich structures designated as domains N, D1, D2, and C, and an (α/α)6-barrel structure designated as domain A. Structural comparison by DALI showed that RhaB shares its highest level of structural similarity with chitobiose phosphorylase (Z score of 25.3). The structure of RhaB in complex with the reaction product rhamnose (inhibitor constant, Ki = 1.8 mM) was also determined and refined at 2.1 Å with a final R-factor of 19.5%. Rhamnose is bound to the deep cleft of the (α/α)6-barrel domain, as is seen in the clan-L GHs. Several negatively charged residues, such as Asp567, Glu572, Asp579, and Glu841, conserved in GH family 78 enzymes, interact with rhamnose, and RhaB mutants of these residues have drastically reduced enzyme activity, indicating that the residues are crucial for enzyme catalysis and/or substrate binding. To our knowledge, this is the first report on the determination of the crystal structure of α-L-rhamnosidase and identification of its clan-L (α/α)6-barrel as a catalytic domain.  相似文献

(1-->3)-alpha-glucanases catalyze the hydrolysis of fungal cell wall (1-->3)-alpha-glucan, and function during cell division of yeasts containing this cell wall component or act in mycoparasitic processes. Here, we characterize the mechanism of action of the (1-->3)-alpha-glucanase MutAp from the mycoparasitic fungus Trichoderma harzianum. We observed that MutAp releases predominantly beta-glucose upon hydrolysis of crystalline (1-->3)-alpha-glucan, indicating inversion of the anomeric configuration. After having identified (1-->3)-alpha-glucan tetrasaccharide as the minimal substrate for MutAp, we showed that reduced (1-->3)-alpha-glucan pentasaccharide is cleaved into a trisaccharide and a reduced disaccharide, demonstrating that MutAp displays endo-hydrolytic activity. We propose a model for the catalytic mechanism of MutAp, whereby the enzyme breaks an intrachain glycosidic linkage of (1-->3)-alpha-glucan, and then continues its hydrolysis towards the non-reducing end by releasing beta-glucose residues in a processive manner.  相似文献

A water-insoluble glucan, PFPSIN, has been isolated from the aqueous extract of an edible mushroom Pleurotus florida. On the basis of total acid hydrolysis, methylation analysis, periodate oxidation, Smith degradation, and (13)C NMR experiments, the repeating unit of the polysaccharide was established as Conformational analysis revealed the triple helical conformation of this glucan.  相似文献

The role of calcium ion in the active site of the inverting glycoside hydrolase family 97 enzyme, BtGH97a, was investigated through structural and kinetic studies. The calcium ion was likely directly involved in the catalytic reaction. The pH dependence of kcat/Km values in the presence or absence of calcium ion indicated that the calcium ion lowered the pKa of the base catalyst. The significant decreases in kcat/Km for hydrolysis of substrates with basic leaving groups in the absence of calcium ion confirmed that the calcium ion facilitated the leaving group departure.  相似文献

The glycoside hydrolase (GH) family 61 is a long-recognized, but still recondite, class of proteins, with little known about the activity, mechanism or function of its more than 70 members. The best-studied GH family 61 member, Cel61A of the filamentous fungus Hypocrea jecorina, is known to be an endoglucanase, but it is not clear if this represents the main activity or function of this family in vivo. We present here the first structure for this family, that of Cel61B from H. jecorina. The best-quality crystals were formed in the presence of nickel, and the crystal structure was solved to 1.6 Å resolution using a single-wavelength anomalous dispersion method with nickel as the source of anomalous scatter. Cel61B lacks a carbohydrate-binding module and is a single-domain protein that folds into a twisted β-sandwich. A structure-aided sequence alignment of all GH family 61 proteins identified a highly conserved group of residues on the surface of Cel61B. Within this patch of mostly polar amino acids was a site occupied by the intramolecular nickel hexacoordinately bound in the solved structure. In the Cel61B structure, there is no easily identifiable carbohydrate-binding cleft or pocket or catalytic center of the types normally seen in GHs. A structural comparison search showed that the known structure most similar to Cel61B is that of CBP21 from the Gram-negative soil bacterium Serratia marcescens, a member of the carbohydrate-binding module family 33 proteins. A polar surface patch highly conserved in that structural family has been identified in CBP21 and shown to be involved in chitin binding and in the protein's enhancement of chitinase activities. The analysis of the Cel61B structure is discussed in light of our continuing research to better understand the activities and function of GH family 61.  相似文献

A water-insoluble alpha-(1-->3)-D-glucan (A) from Lentinus edodes was fractionated into 13 fractions in dimethyl sulfoxide containing 0.25 M lithium chloride (0.25 M LiCl-Me(2)SO). Five fractions were treated with sulfur trioxide-pyridine complex at 25 degrees C to synthesize water-soluble sulfated derivatives (S-A). The weight-average molecular weights, M(w), and intrinsic viscosities [eta], of the samples A and S-A were determined by multi-angler laser light scattering (MALLS), and viscosity. The M(w) dependence of [eta] and of the radius of gyration (z)(1/2), was found to be represented approximately by [eta]=4.9 x 10(-2) M(w)(0.67) (cm(3) g(-1)), and (z)(1/2)=4.8 x 10(-2) M(w)(0.54) (nm) for the alpha-glucan in 0.25 M LiCl-Me(2)SO in the M(w) range from 7.24 x 10(4) to 4.21 x 10(5), and by [eta]=6.8 x 10(-4) M(w) 1.06 (cm(3) g(-1)), and (z)(1/2)=9.4 x 10(-4) M(w)(0.92) (nm) for the sulfated alpha-glucan in aqueous 0.5 M NaCl in the M(w) range from 5.92 x 10(4) to 1.42 x 10(5) at 25 degrees C. The results indicate that the alpha-(1-->3)-D-glucan exists as a flexible chain in 0.25 M LiCl-Me(2)SO, and its sulfated derivative in 0.5 M NaCl aqueous has stiffer chains than the original. (13)C NMR indicated that intramolecular hydrogen bonding occurred in the sulfated alpha-glucan, causing the observed chain stiffness.  相似文献

Using anion-exchange chromatography on Source 15Q followed by hydrophobic interaction chromatography on Source 15 Isopropyl, a lichenase-like endo-(1→4)-β-glucanase (BG, 28 kDa, pI 4.1) was isolated from a culture filtrate of Aspergillus japonicus. The enzyme was highly active against barley β-glucan and lichenan (263 and 267 U/mg protein) and had much lower activity toward carboxymethylcellulose (3.9 U/mg). The mode of action of the BG on barley β-glucan and lichenan was studied in comparison with that of Bacillus subtilis lichenase and endo-(1→4)-β-glucanases (EG I, II, and III) of Trichoderma reesei. The BG behaved very similar to the bacterial lichenase, except the tri- and tetrasaccharides formed as the end products of β-glucan hydrolysis with the BG contained the β-(1→3)-glucoside linkage at the non-reducing end, while the lichenase-derived oligosaccharides had the β-(1→3)-linkage at the reducing end. The BG was characterized by a high amino acid sequence identity to the EG of Aspergillus kawachii (UniProt entry Q12679) from a family 12 of glycoside hydrolases (96% in 162 identified aa residues out of total 223 residues) and also showed lower sequence similarity to the EglA of Aspergillus niger (O74705).  相似文献

Acid hydrolysis of cell wall-rich material from thalli of the hornwort Anthoceros caucasicus yielded substantial amounts of an unusual disaccharide (1). Hydrolysis of 1 yielded only GlcA, Gal and unhydrolysed 1. Compound 1 was identified as alpha-D-GlcpA-(1-->3)-L-Gal by 1H and 13C NMR spectroscopic analysis and by the susceptibility of its monosaccharide units to phosphorylation by enantiomer-specific kinases. Compound 1 was not detected in acid hydrolysates of other land plants including mosses, leafy and thalloid liverworts, lycopodiophytes and euphyllophytes; it was also absent from charophytes. The Anthoceros polysaccharide that yields 1 was partially extractable in cold aqueous buffer (pH 4.7) and Na(2)CO(3), but not in EDTA or NaOH, suggesting that it was not a typical pectin or hemicellulose. The yield of 1 from various polysaccharide fractions correlated with the yields of Xyl, suggesting a previously unreported polymer containing D-GlcA, L-Gal and Xyl. The existence of a unique polysaccharide in an evolutionarily isolated plant (Anthoceros) supports the view that major steps in plant phylogeny were accompanied by significant changes in cell wall composition.  相似文献

Glycoside hydrolase family (GH) 11 xylanase A from Bacillus subtilis (BsXynA) was subjected to site-directed mutagenesis to probe the role of aglycon active site residues with regard to activity, binding of decorated substrates and hydrolysis product profile. Targets were those amino acids identified to be important by 3D structure analysis of BsXynA in complex with substrate bound in the glycon subsites and the + 1 aglycon subsite. Several aromatic residues in the aglycon subsites that make strong substrate–protein interactions and that are indispensable for enzyme activity, were also important for the specificity of the xylanase. In the + 2 subsite of BsXynA, Tyr65 and Trp129 were identified as residues that are involved in the binding of decorated substrates. Most interestingly, replacement of Tyr88 by Ala in the + 3 subsite created an enzyme able to produce a wider variety of hydrolysis products than wild type BsXynA. The contribution of the + 3 subsite to the substrate specificity of BsXynA was established more in detail by mapping the enzyme binding site of the wild type xylanase and mutant Y88A with labelled xylo-oligosaccharides. Also, the length of the cord – a long loop flanking the aglycon subsites of GH11 xylanases – proved to impact the hydrolytic action of BsXynA. The aglycon side of the active site cleft of BsXynA, therefore, offers great potential for engineering and design of xylanases with a desired specificity.  相似文献
