The E. coli isozyme of gamma-aminobutyrate aminotransferase (GABA-AT) is a, tetrameric pyridoxal phosphate-dependent enzyme that catalyzes, transamination between primary amines and alpha-keto acids. The roles of, the active site residues V241, E211, and I50 in the GABA-AT mechanism have, been probed by site-directed mutagenesis. The beta-branched side chain of, V241 facilitates formation of external aldimine intermediates with primary, amine substrates, while E211 provides charge compensation of R398, selectively in the primary amine half-reaction and I50 forms a hydrophobic, lid at the top of the substrate binding site. The structures of the I50Q, V241A, and E211S mutants were solved by X-ray crystallography to, resolutions of 2.1, 2.5, and 2.52 A, respectively. The structure of, GABA-AT is similar in overall fold and active site structure to that of, dialkylglycine decarboxylase, which catalyzes both transamination and, decarboxylation half-reactions in its normal catalytic cycle. Therefore, an attempt was made to convert GABA-AT into a decarboxylation-dependent, aminotransferase similar to dialkylglycine decarboxylase by systematic, mutation of E. coli GABA-AT active site residues. Two of the twelve, mutants presented, E211S/I50G/C77K and E211S/I50H/V80D, have approximately, 10-fold higher decarboxylation activities than the wild-type enzyme, and, the E211S/I50H/V80D has formally changed the reaction specificity to that, of a decarboxylase.

The structure of gamma-aminobutyrate aminotransferase mutant: V241A

Overview

The E. coli isozyme of gamma-aminobutyrate aminotransferase (GABA-AT) is a tetrameric pyridoxal phosphate-dependent enzyme that catalyzes transamination between primary amines and alpha-keto acids. The roles of the active site residues V241, E211, and I50 in the GABA-AT mechanism have been probed by site-directed mutagenesis. The beta-branched side chain of V241 facilitates formation of external aldimine intermediates with primary amine substrates, while E211 provides charge compensation of R398 selectively in the primary amine half-reaction and I50 forms a hydrophobic lid at the top of the substrate binding site. The structures of the I50Q, V241A, and E211S mutants were solved by X-ray crystallography to resolutions of 2.1, 2.5, and 2.52 A, respectively. The structure of GABA-AT is similar in overall fold and active site structure to that of dialkylglycine decarboxylase, which catalyzes both transamination and decarboxylation half-reactions in its normal catalytic cycle. Therefore, an attempt was made to convert GABA-AT into a decarboxylation-dependent aminotransferase similar to dialkylglycine decarboxylase by systematic mutation of E. coli GABA-AT active site residues. Two of the twelve mutants presented, E211S/I50G/C77K and E211S/I50H/V80D, have approximately 10-fold higher decarboxylation activities than the wild-type enzyme, and the E211S/I50H/V80D has formally changed the reaction specificity to that of a decarboxylase.
