resolution with rhamnose bound in the active site of the catalytic domain. Curiously, the putative catalytic acid, Asp 222, is

Nevertheless, the enzyme displays a-rhamnosidase activity when assayed in vitro, suggesting that the additional structural

as components of polysaccharides, such as pectins,2 and

the O antigen polysaccharides, responsible for determining

the antigenicity of pathogenic bacteria3; it is also found in

rhamnolipids4 and it is attached to small molecule natural

The crystal structure of KoRha with rhamnose bound was

determined to 2.7A ° resolution. The final model consisted of

two KoRha subunits related by a non-crystallographic twofold
 +
axis (giving a corresponding solvent content of 73%) in
 +
the asymmetric unit, with each monomer containing a

bound rhamnose. Dynamic light scattering had suggested

that KoRha was a homodimer in solution and the structure

of KoRha confirmed this, giving a dimer interface of 1389.9

uk/pdbe/pisa/).
 +
Each monomer of KoRha is composed of two
 +
domains. Domain A, the catalytic domain, is mainly ahelical,
 +
consisting of residues 11–30 and 180–523, and
 +
contains the bound rhamnose. Domain B, the dimerization
 +
domain, is a b-sandwich domain consisting of residues
 +
31–179.
