STRUCTURE OF THE TYPE II COHESIN FROM CLOSTRIDIUM THERMOCELLUM SDBA
Overview
The plant cell wall degrading enzymes expressed by anaerobic, microorganisms form large multienzyme complexes (cellulosomes)., Cellulosomes assemble by the Type I dockerins on the catalytic subunits, binding to the reiterated Type I cohesins in the molecular scaffold, while, Type II dockerin-cohesin interactions anchor the complex onto the, bacterial cell surface. Type I and Type II cohesin, dockerin pairs show no, cross-specificity. Here we report the crystal structure of the Type II, cohesin (CohII) from the Clostridium thermocellum cell surface anchoring, protein SdbA. The protein domain contains nine beta-strands and a small, alpha-helix. The beta-strands assemble into two elongated beta-sheets that, display a typical jelly roll fold. The structure of CohII is very similar, to Type I cohesins, and the dockerin binding site, which is centred at, beta-strands 3, 5 and 6, is likely to be conserved in the two proteins., Subtle differences in the topology of the binding sites and a lack of, sequence identity in the beta-strands that comprise the core of the, dockerin binding site explain why Type I and Type II cohesins display such, distinct specificities for their target dockerins.
