METALLO-BETA-LACTAMASE (1BC2) SINGLE POINT MUTANT D120S
Overview
Metallo-beta-lactamases are zinc-dependent hydrolases that inactivate, beta-lactam antibiotics, rendering bacteria resistant to them. Asp-120 is, fully conserved in all metallo-beta-lactamases and is central to, catalysis. Several roles have been proposed for Asp-120, but so far there, is no agreed consensus. We generated four site-specifically substituted, variants of the enzyme BcII from Bacillus cereus as follows: D120N, D120E, D120Q, and D120S. Replacement of Asp-120 by other residues with very, different metal ligating capabilities severely impairs the lactamase, activity without abolishing metal binding to the mutated site. A kinetic, study of these mutants indicates that Asp-120 is not the proton donor, nor, does it play an essential role in nucleophilic activation. Spectroscopic, ... [(full description)]
