==Crystal structure of sialic acid synthase (NeuB) in complex with Mn2+ and Malate from Neisseria meningitidis==

In Neisseria meningitidis and related bacterial pathogens, sialic acids, play critical roles in mammalian cell immunity evasion and are synthesized, by a conserved enzymatic pathway that includes sialic acid synthase (NeuB, SiaC, or SynC). NeuB catalyzes the condensation of phosphoenolpyruvate, (PEP) and N-acetylmannosamine, directly forming N-acetylneuraminic acid, (or sialic acid). In this paper we report the development of a coupled, assay to monitor NeuB reaction kinetics and an 18O-labeling study that, demonstrates the synthase operates via a C-O bond cleavage mechanism. We, also report the first structure of a sialic acid synthase, that of NeuB, revealing a unique domain-swapped homodimer architecture consisting of a, (beta/alpha)8 barrel (TIM barrel)-type fold at the N-terminal end and a, domain with high sequence identity and structural similarity to the ice, binding type III antifreeze proteins at the C-terminal end of the enzyme., We have determined the structures of NeuB in the malate-bound form and, with bound PEP and the substrate analog N-acetylmannosaminitol to 1.9 and, 2.2 A resolution, respectively. Typical of other TIM barrel proteins, the, active site of NeuB is located in a cavity at the C-terminal end of the, barrel; however, the positioning of the swapped antifreeze-like domain, from the adjacent monomer provides key residues for hydrogen bonding with, substrates in the active site of NeuB, a structural feature that leads to, distinct modes of substrate binding from other PEP-utilizing enzymes that, lack an analogous antifreeze-like domain. Our observation of a direct, interaction between a highly ordered manganese and the, N-acetylmannosaminitol in the NeuB active site also suggests an essential, role for the ion as an electrophilic catalyst that activates the, N-acetylmannosamine carbonyl to the addition of PEP.
