| + | Polyglycine hydrolases (PGHs) are secreted fungal proteases that cleave the polyglycine linker of Zea mays ChitA, a defensive chitinase, thus overcoming one mechanism of plant resistance to infection. Despite their importance in agriculture, there has been no previous structural characterization of this family of proteases. The objective of this research was to investigate the proteolytic mechanism and other characteristics by structural and biochemical means. Here, the first atomic structure of a polyglycine hydrolase was identified. It was solved by X-ray crystallography using a RoseTTAFold model, taking advantage of recent technical advances in structure prediction. PGHs are composed of two domains: the N- and C-domains. The N-domain is a novel tertiary fold with an as-yet unknown function that is found across all kingdoms of life. The C-domain shares structural similarities with class C beta-lactamases, including a common catalytic nucleophilic serine. In addition to insights into the PGH family and its relationship to beta-lactamases, the results demonstrate the power of complementing experimental structure determination with new computational techniques. | ||
