A group of cyclic amidases, including hydantoinase, allantoinase, dihydropyrimidinase, and dihydroorotase, catalyze the reversible hydrolysis of cyclic ureides, such as 5-monosubstituted hydantoins and dihydropyrimidines. These four enzymes carry hydrophobic patches to form dimers. With the exception of dihydroorotase, these enzymes are further dimerized to form tetramers by hydrophobic interactions. This leads us to speculate that the hydrophobic interaction domain may be a significant factor in the catalytic property of these oligomeric cyclic amidases, for which activities are not allosterically regulated. We generated a dimeric D-hydantoinase by mutating five residues in the hydrophobic alpha-helical interface of a tetramer and analyzed the kinetic properties of the dimeric form of D-hydantoinase. The specific activity of the dimeric D-hydantoinase corresponds to 5.3% of the activity of tetrameric D-hydantoinase. This low specific activity of the dimeric D-hydantoinase indicates that the dimeric interaction to form a tetramer has a significant effect on the catalytic activity of this non-allosteric tetramer. 相似文献

Two recombinant reaction systems for the production of optically pure D-amino acids from different D,L-5-monosubstituted hydantoins were constructed. Each system contained three enzymes, two of which were D-hydantoinase and D-carbamoylase from Agrobacterium tumefaciens BQL9. The third enzyme was hydantoin racemase 1 for the first system and hydantoin racemase 2 for the second system, both from A. tumefaciens C58. Each system was formed by using a recombinant Escherichia coli strain with one plasmid harboring three genes coexpressed with one promoter in a polycistronic structure. The D-carbamoylase gene was cloned closest to the promoter in order to obtain the highest level of synthesis of the enzyme, thus avoiding intermediate accumulation, which decreases the reaction rate. Both systems were able to produce 100% conversion and 100% optically pure D-methionine, D-leucine, D-norleucine, D-norvaline, D-aminobutyric acid, D-valine, D-phenylalanine, D-tyrosine, and D-tryptophan from the corresponding hydantoin racemic mixture. For the production of almost all D-amino acids studied in this work, system 1 hydrolyzed the 5-monosubstituted hydantoins faster than system 2. 相似文献

Pseudomonas putida DSM 84 produces N-carbamyl-D-amino acids from the corresponding D-5-monosubstituted hydantoins. The gene encoding this D-hydantoinase enzyme was cloned and expressed in Escherichia coli. The nucleotide sequence of the 1.8-kb insert of subclone pGES19 was determined. One open reading frame of 1,104 bp was found and was predicted to encode a polypeptide with a molecular size of 40.5 kDa. Local regions of identity between the predicted amino acid sequence and that of other known amidohydrolases (two other D-hydantoinases, allantionase and dihydroorotase) were found. The D-hydantoinase gene was used as a probe to screen DNA isolated from diverse organisms. Within Pseudomonas strains of rRNA group I, the probe was specific. The probe did not detect D-hydantoinase genes in pseudomonads not in rRNA group I, other bacteria, or plants known to express D-hydantoinase activity. 相似文献

Substrate- and stereospecificity,induction and metallo-dependence of a microbial hydantoinase 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Summary D, L-5-monosubstituted hydantoins can be used as substrates for a two-step-enzymatic production of optically active aminoacids. The substrate- and stereospecificity of the first enzyme — a hydantoinase -, investigations on its induction and on its dependence upon metallo-ions are described. It is shown, that the activity of this hydantoinase, which is not identical with the well-known enzyme D-hydantoinase, depends on manganese-ions. Of synthetic and natural compounds tested as inductors, D, L-5-indolylmethylhydantoin showed the best effect. The hydantoinase has a wide substrate-specificity. Its stereoselectivity seems to depend on the structure of the side chain in 5-position of the hydantoin. 相似文献

The structure of L-hydantoinase from Arthobacter aurescens leads to an understanding of dihydropyrimidinase substrate and enantio specificity 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
L-Hydantoinase from Arthrobacter aurescens (L-Hyd) is a member of the dihydropyrimidinases which in turn belong to the cyclic amidases. Dihydropyrimidinases catalyze the reversible hydrolytic ring opening of dihydropyrimidines as the second step in the catabolism of pyrimidines. In biotechnology, their hydroloytic activity on five-membered cyclic diamides (hydantoins) is used in the enantio-specific production of amino acids from racemic hydantoins. L-Hyd differs from most of the other dihydropyrimidinases by an L-enantio specificity and by lacking activity on possible natural substrates such as dihydropyrimidines. In this paper, we describe the three-dimensional structure of L-Hyd which was solved by molecular replacement using a homology model and subsequently refined to 2.6 A resolution. Each subunit of the tetrameric L-Hyd consists of an elliptically distorted (alpha/beta)(8)-barrel domain, which hosts the active site, and a beta-sheet domain. In the active site, a binuclear zinc center activates a water molecule for nucleophilic attack on the substrates' amide bond. L-Hyd shows a strong homology both in fold and in metal coordination in the active site to another dihydropyrimidinase from Thermus sp. (D-hydantoinase) and to a slightly lesser degree to ureases, dihydroorotase and phosphotriesterase. Using the homology to ureases, a model for the transition state was modeled in the active site of L-Hyd and D-hydantoinase. This model could provide an explanation for the different substrate and enantio selectivities of both dihydropyrimidinases. 相似文献

Hydantoin racemase enzyme together with a stereoselective hydantoinase and a stereospecific D-carbamoylase guarantee the total conversion from D,L-5-monosubstituted hydantoins with a low velocity of racemization to optically pure D-amino acids. In this work we have cloned and expressed the hydantoin racemase gene from two strains of Agrobacterium tumefaciens, C58 and LBA4404, in Escherichia coli BL21. The recombinant protein was purified in a one-step procedure by using immobilized cobalt affinity chromatography and showed an apparent molecular mass of 32,000 Da in SDS-gel electrophoresis. Size exclusion chromatography analysis determined a molecular mass of about 100,000 Da, suggesting that the native enzyme is a tetramer. The optimal conditions for hydantoin racemase activity were pH 7.5 and 55 degrees C with L-5-ethylhydantoin as substrate. Enzyme activity was slightly affected by the addition of Ni(2+) and Co(2+) and strongly inhibited by Cu(2+) and Hg(2+). No effect on enzyme activity was detected with Mn(2+), EDTA, or DTT. Kinetic studies showed the preference of the enzyme for hydantoins with short rather than long aliphatic side chains or hydantoins with aromatic rings. 相似文献

Hydantoin racemase enzyme plays a crucial role in the reaction cascade known as "hydantoinase process." In conjunction with a stereoselective hydantoinase and a stereospecific carbamoylase, it allows the total conversion from D,L-5-monosubstituted hydantoins, with a low rate of racemization, to optically pure D- or L-amino acids. Residues Cys76 and Cys181 belonging to hydantoin racemase from Sinorhizobium meliloti (SmeHyuA) have been proved to be involved in catalysis. Here, we report biophysical data of SmeHyuA Cys76 and Cys181 to alanine mutants, which point toward a two-base mechanism for the racemization of 5-monosubstituted hydantoins. The secondary and the tertiary structure of the mutants were not significantly affected, as shown by circular dichroism. Calorimetric and fluorescence experiments have shown that Cys76 is responsible for recognition and proton retrieval of D-isomers, while Cys181 is responsible for L-isomer recognition and racemization. This recognition process is further supported by measurements of protein stability followed by chemical denaturation in the presence of the corresponding compound. 相似文献

The cyclic-imide-hydrolyzing activity of a prokaryotic cyclic-ureide-hydrolyzing enzyme, D-hydantoinase, was investigated. The enzyme hydrolyzed cyclic imides with bulky substituents such as 2-methylsuccinimide, 2-phenylsuccinimide, phthalimide, and 3,4-pyridine dicarboximide to the corresponding half-amides. However, simple cyclic imides without substituents, which are substrates of imidase (ie.g., succinimide, glutarimide, and sulfur-containing cyclic imides such as 2,4-thiazolidinedione and rhodanine), were not hydrolyzed. The combined catalytic actions of bacterial D-hydantoinase and imidase can cover the function of a single mammalian enzyme, dihydropyrimidinase. Prokaryotic D-hydantoinase also catalyzed the dehyrative cyclization of the half-amide phthalamidic acid to the corresponding cyclic imide, phthalimide. The reversible hydrolysis of cyclic imides shown by prokaryotic D-hydantoinase suggested that, in addition to pyrimidine metabolism, it may also function in cyclic-imide metabolism. 相似文献

Hydantoin racemase enzyme together with a stereoselective hydantoinase and a stereospecific d-carbamoylase guarantee the total conversion from d,l-5-monosubstituted hydantoins with a low velocity of racemization, to optically pure d-amino acids. Hydantoin racemase from Sinorhizobium meliloti was expressed in Escherichia coli. Calorimetric and fluorescence experiments were then carried out to obtain the thermodynamic binding parameters, deltaG, deltaH and DeltaS for the inhibitors L- and D-5-methylthioethyl-hydantoin. The number of active sites is four per enzyme molecule (one per monomer), and the binding of the inhibitor is entropically and enthalpically favoured under the experimental conditions studied. In order to obtain information about amino acids involved in the active site, four different mutants were developed in which cysteines 76 and 181 were mutated to Alanine and Serine. Their behaviour shows that these cysteines are essential for enzyme activity, but only cysteine 76 affects the binding to these inhibitors. 相似文献

A reaction system was developed for the production of D-amino acids from D,L-5-monosubstituted hydantoins with a very slow rate of spontaneous racemization. For this purpose the D-hydantoinase and D-carbamoylase from Agrobacterium radiobacter NRRL B11291 were cloned in separate plasmids and expressed in Escherichia coli. The third enzyme, hydantoin racemase, was cloned from Agrobacterium tumefaciens C58. The hydantoin racemase amino acid sequence was significantly similar to those previously described. A reaction system consisting of recombinant Escherichia coli whole cell biocatalysts containing separately expressed D-hydantoinase, D-carbamoylase, and hydantoin recemase showed high substrate specificity and was effective toward both aliphatic and aromatic D,L-5-monosubstituted hydantoins. After optimizing reaction conditions (pH 8 and 50 degrees C), 100% conversion of D,L-5-(2-methylthioethyl)-hydantoin (15 mM) into D-methionine was obtained in 30 min. 相似文献

Manipulation of the active site loops of D-hydantoinase, a (beta/alpha)8-barrel protein, for modulation of the substrate specificity 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We previously proposed that the stereochemistry gate loops (SGLs) constituting the substrate binding pocket of D-hydantoinase, a (beta/alpha)(8)-barrel enzyme, might be major structural determinants of the substrate specificity [Cheon, Y. H., et al. (2002) Biochemistry 41, 9410-9417]. To construct a mutant D-hydantoinase with favorable substrate specificity for the synthesis of commercially important non-natural amino acids, the SGL loops of the enzyme were rationally manipulated on the basis of the structural analysis and sequence alignment of three hydantoinases with distinct substrate specificities. In the SGLs of D-hydantoinase from Bacillus stearothermophilus SD1, mutations of hydrophobic and bulky residues Met 63, Leu 65, Phe 152, and Phe 159, which interact with the exocyclic substituent of the substrate, induced remarkable changes in the substrate specificities. In particular, the substrate specificity of mutant F159A toward aromatic substrate hydroxyphenylhydantoin (HPH) was enhanced by approximately 200-fold compared with that of the wild-type enzyme. Saturation mutagenesis at position 159 revealed that k(cat) for aromatic substrates increased gradually as the size of the amino acid side chain decreased, and this seems to be due to reduced steric hindrance between the bulky exocyclic group of the substrate and the amino acid side chains. When site-directed random mutagenesis of residues 63 and 65 was conducted with the wild type and mutant F159A, the selected enzymes (M63F/L65V and L65F/F159A) exhibited approximately 10-fold higher k(cat) values for HPH than the wild-type counterpart, which is likely to result from reorganization of the active site for efficient turnover. These results indicate that the amino acid residues of SGLs forming the substrate binding pocket are critical for the substrate specificity of D-hydantoinase, and the results also imply that substrate specificities of cyclic amidohydrolase family enzymes can be modulated by rational design of these SGLs. 相似文献

Dihydropyrimidinases (hydantoinases) catalyse the reversible hydrolytic ring-opening of cyclic diamides such as dihydropyrimidines in the catabolism of pyrimidines. In biotechnology, these enzymes find application in the enantiospecific production of amino acids from racemic hydantoins. The crystal structure of a D-enantio-specific dihydropyrimidinase from Thermus sp. (D-hydantoinase) was solved de novo by multiwavelength anomalous diffraction phasing. In spite of a large unit cell the D-hydantoinase crystals exhibit excellent diffraction properties. The structure was subsequently refined at 1.30 A resolution against native data. The core of D-hydantoinase consists of a (alpha/beta)(8)-barrel, which is flanked by a beta-sheet domain and some additional helices. In the active site, a carboxylated lysine residue and the catalytically active hydroxide ion bridge a binuclear zinc centre. The tertiary structure and shape of the active site show strong homology to that of ureases, dihydroorotases, and phosphotriesterases. The homology of the active site was exploited for in silicio docking of substrates in the active site. This could shed light both on the substrate binding in hydantoinases and on the recently highly discussed origin of the proton in the course of hydantoinase catalysis. 相似文献

An interesting phenomenon was observed that the existence of the intact cell membrane can enhance the D-amino acids production from D,L-5-substituted hydantoins by reacting with the whole cells of Agrobacterium radiobacter. Two intracellular enzymes were involved in the reaction process. The first enzyme D-hydantoinase converted hydantoins to carbamoyl derivatives which were further converted to D-amino acids by D-amidohydrolase. The amount of D-amino acids produced from hydantoins by the intact cells were 1.8–2.4 fold higher than the toluene treated cells. In addition, by using the intact cells the amount of D-amino acids produced from hydantoins was about 10 fold higher than that produced directly from carbamoyl derivatives. The relatively lower permeability of cell membrane to the reaction intermediate carbamoyl derivatives was confirmed by a simple mathematical model to be the main factor for the better performance of the intact cells for D-amino acid production. Besides, the low intracellular enzymes activities also contributed to the effect of intact cell membrane on enhancing the D-amino acid production. 相似文献

Directed evolution of a novel N-carbamylase/D-hydantoinase fusion enzyme for functional expression with enhanced stability 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Bifunctional enzymes find a wide application as a monitoring facility and a potential biocatalyst in molecular biology and biotechnology. Recombination of natural enzymes to a bifunctional fusion offers valuable tools, but the functional and structural instability of artificial fusion enzymes remains to be solved. Based on structural traits of microbial D-hydantoinase, we attempted to construct a bifunctional N-carbamylase/D-hydantoinase fusion enzyme that would be useful for the synthesis of nonnatural D-amino acids in a concerted fashion. The bifunctional ability of D-hydantoinase, as a fusion partner, was noticeable, but the resulting fusion enzyme was subjected to serious proteolysis in vivo, as generally encountered in the expression of large the multidomain polypeptide in E. coli. In an effort to improve the structural instability imposed by artificial linear fusion, directed evolution of the fusion enzyme was performed using DNA shuffling with a consensus primer to maintain a crucial domain for the enzyme activity. The evolved fusion enzyme, F11, was selected after repeated rounds, and this enzyme was found to show sixfold increased performance in the production of D-amino acid compared with the parent fusion enzyme, which was mainly due to the enhanced structural stability of the evolved fusion enzyme. This result is an example showing that directed evolution of the linearly fused polypeptide may broaden the opportunity to generate a fusion enzyme with greater potential. 相似文献

D-Hydantoinase is an industrial enzyme widely used for the synthesis of optically active D-amino acids. A gene encoding thermostable D-hydantoinase of Bacillus stearothermophilus SD-1 has previously been cloned and constitutively expressed by its native promoter in Escherichia coli XL1-Blue (Lee et al., 1996b). In this work, we attempted mass production of the D-hydantoinase by batch culture of the recombinant E. coli using glycerol as a carbon source. The plasmid content in cells increased in proportion to the culture temperature, which resulted in a two- or three-fold increase of the specific D-hydantoinase activity at 37 degrees C compared with that at 30 degrees C. The plasmid was stably maintained over 80 generations. When glycerol was initially added to a concentration of 100 g/L, the final biomass concentration reached about 50 g-dry cell weight/L in a 50 L-scale fermentation, resulting in the specific enzyme production of 3.8 x 10(4) unit/g-dry cell weight in a soluble form. Glycerol-using batch cultivation of recombinant E. coli was found to be a cost-effective process for the mass production of industrially useful D-hydantoinase. (c) 1997 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Stereospecific conversion of hydantoins into their carbamoyl acid derivatives could be achieved by using the enzyme hydantoinase. Specific hydantoinases convert either the D-form or the L-form of the hydantoin and the amino acids responsible for stereospecificity have not been identified. Structural studies on hydantoinases from a few bacterial species were published recently. The structure of a thermostable D-hydantoinase from Bacillus sp. AR9 (bar9HYD) was solved to 2.3 angstroms resolution. The usual modification of carboxylation of the active-site residue Lys150 did not happen in bar9HYD. Two manganese ions were modelled in the active site. Through biochemical studies, it was shown that mercury inhibits the activity of the enzyme. The mercury derivative provided some information about the binding site of the mercuric inhibitors and a possible reason for inhibition is presented. 相似文献

Construction and evaluation of a novel bifunctional N-carbamylase-D-hydantoinase fusion enzyme 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
A fully enzymatic process employing two sequential enzymes, D-hydantoinase and N-carbamylase, is a typical case requiring combined enzyme activity for the production of D-amino acids. To test the possibility of generating a bifunctional fusion enzyme, we constructed a fusion protein via end-to-end fusion of a whole gene that encodes an intact protein at the N terminus of the D-hydantoinase. Firstly, maltose-binding protein (MBP) gene of E. coli was fused with D-hydantoinase gene from Bacillus stearothermophilus SD1, and the properties of the resulting fusion protein (MBP-HYD) were compared with those of native D-hydantoinase. Gel filtration and kinetic analyses clearly demonstrated that the typical characteristics of D-hydantoinase are maintained even in a fusion state. Based on this result, we constructed an artificial fusion enzyme composed of the whole length of N-carbamylase (304 amino acids [aa]) from Agrobacterim radiobacter NRRL B11291 and D-hydantoinase (471 aa). The fusion enzyme (CAB-HYD) was functionally expressed with an expected molecular mass of 86 kDa and efficiently converted exogenous hydantoin derivatives to the D-amino acids. A related D-hydantoinase (HYD1) gene from Bacillus thermocatenulatus GH2 was also fused with the N-carbamylase gene at its N terminus. The resulting enzyme (CAB-HYD1) was bifunctional as expected and showed better performance than the CAB-HYD fusion enzyme. The conversion of hydantoin derivatives to corresponding amino acids by the fusion enzymes was much higher than that by the separately expressed enzymes, and comparable to that by the coexpressed enzymes. Thus, the fusion enzyme might be useful as a potential biocatalyst for the production of nonnatural amino acids. 相似文献

Dihydroorotases (EC 3.5.2.3) catalyze the reversible cyclization of carbamoyl aspartate to form dihydroorotate in de novo pyrimidine biosynthesis. The X-ray structures of Aquifex aeolicus dihydroorotase in two space groups, C222(1) and C2, were determined at a resolution of 1.7A. These are the first structures of a type I dihydroorotase, a class of molecules that includes the dihydroorotase domain of mammalian CAD. The type I enzymes are more ancient and larger, at 45 kDa, than the type II enzymes exemplified by the 38 kDa Escherichia coli dihydroorotase. Both dihydroorotases are members of the metallo-dependent hydrolase superfamily, whose members have a distorted "TIM barrel" domain containing the active site. However, A.aeolicus dihydroorotase has a second, composite domain, which the E.coli enzyme lacks and has only one of the two zinc atoms present in the E.coli enzyme. A.aeolicus dihydroorotase is unique in exhibiting significant activity only when complexed with aspartate transcarbamoylase, whereas the E.coli dihydroorotase and the CAD dihydroorotase domain are active as free proteins. The latency of A.aeolicus dihydroorotase can be related to two differences between its structure and that of E.coli dihydroorotase: (1) the monoclinic structure has a novel cysteine ligand to the zinc that blocks the active site and possibly functions as a "cysteine switch"; and (2) active site residues that bind the substrate in E.coli dihydroorotase are located in disordered loops in both crystal structures of A.aeolicus dihydroorotase and may function as a disorder-to-order "entropy switch". 相似文献

Enzyme elements that are involved in the reversible cyclization of L-carbamylaspartate to L-dihdroorotate catalyzed by dihydroorotase (EC 3.5.2.3) from Clostridium oroticum (ATCC 25750) have been studied. Removal of Zn(II) from the enzyme by chelators followed by incubation of apoenzyme with Co(II) results in replacement of two to three of the four Zn(II) ions per molecule by Co(II). The catalytic properties of the Zn(II)Co(II) dihydroorotase are different from those of native enzyme. The Vmax is increased for both the synthesis and hydrolysis of L-dihydroorotate. The Km for L-dihydroorotate is unchanged, while the Km for L-carbamylaspartate is increased more than twofold. On the other hand, the kinetic properties of Zn(II)-reconstituted dihydroorotase are indistinguishable from those of native enzyme. The pH dependence of Vmax is also altered by the Co(II) substitution. For both Zn(II)- and Zn(II)Co(II)-dihydroorotase, this pH dependence is well described by a single ionization and the pK's for L-dihydroorotate synthesis and hydrolysis are different. Substitution with Co(II) increases the pK for both reaction directions to different extents. These results strongly support a role for the tightly bound metals in the catalytic mechanism. In addition, diethylpyrocarbonate rapidly inactivates the enzyme. The inactivation is prevented by L-dihydroorotate. This result is consistent with a role for at least one histidine in catalysis. The possibility that C. oroticum dihydroorotase may be useful model for the more complex mammalian enzyme is considered. 相似文献
