| + | We determined the crystal structure of EcL-DER to elucidate protein function and substrate specificity. Unlike other asp/glu racemases, EcL-DER has an unbalanced pair of catalytic residues, Thr83/Cys197, at the active site that is crucial for l- to d-unidirectional racemase activity. EcL-DER exhibited racemase activity for both l-glutamate and l-aspartate, but had threefold higher activity for l-glutamate. Based on the structure of the EcL-DER(C197S) mutant in complex with l-glutamate, we determined the binding mode of the l-glutamate substrate in EcL-DER and provide a structural basis for how the protein utilizes l-glutamate as a main substrate. The unidirectionality, despite an equilibrium constant of unity, can be understood in terms of the Haldane relationship. | ||
