The second structure presented shows a, covalent reaction intermediate after decarboxylation, interpreted as being, nonplanar. Finally, the structure of a product complex is presented. In, accordance with mutagenesis data, no side chains of the enzyme are implied, to directly participate in proton transfer except the glutamic acid, (Glu-56), which promotes formation of the 1',4'-iminopyrimidine tautomer, of ThDP needed for activation.

X-RAY STRUCTURE OF OXALYL-COA DECARBOXYLASE IN COMPLEX WITH COENZYME-A

Overview

Despite more than five decades of extensive studies of thiamin diphosphate (ThDP) enzymes, there remain many uncertainties as to how these enzymes achieve their rate enhancements. Here, we present a clear picture of catalysis for the simple nonoxidative decarboxylase, oxalyl-coenzyme A (CoA) decarboxylase, based on crystallographic snapshots along the catalytic cycle and kinetic data on active site mutants. First, we provide crystallographic evidence that, upon binding of oxalyl-CoA, the C-terminal 13 residues fold over the substrate, aligning the substrate alpha-carbon for attack by the ThDP-C2 atom. The second structure presented shows a covalent reaction intermediate after decarboxylation, interpreted as being nonplanar. Finally, the structure of a product complex is presented. In accordance with mutagenesis data, no side chains of the enzyme are implied to directly participate in proton transfer except the glutamic acid (Glu-56), which promotes formation of the 1',4'-iminopyrimidine tautomer of ThDP needed for activation.
