THREE-DIMENSIONAL STRUCTURE OF 4-HYDROXYBENZOYL COA THIOESTERASE FROM PSEUDOMONAS SP. STRAIN CBS-3.

Overview

The soil-dwelling microbe, Pseudomonas sp. strain CBS-3, has attracted, recent attention due to its ability to survive on 4-chlorobenzoate as its, sole carbon source. The biochemical pathway by which this organism, converts 4-chlorobenzoate to 4-hydroxybenzoate consists of three enzymes:, 4-chlorobenzoyl-CoA ligase, 4-chlorobenzoyl-CoA dehalogenase, and, 4-hydroxybenzoyl-CoA thioesterase. Here we describe the three-dimensional, structure of the thioesterase determined to 2.0-A resolution. Each subunit, of the homotetramer is characterized by a five-stranded anti-parallel, beta-sheet and three major alpha-helices. While previous amino acid, sequence analyses failed to reveal any similarity between this, thioesterase and other known proteins, the results from this study clearly, demonstrate that the molecular architecture of 4-hydroxybenzoyl-CoA, thioesterase is topologically equivalent to that observed for, beta-hydroxydecanoyl thiol ester dehydrase from Escherichia coli. On the, basis of the structural similarity between these two enzymes, the active, site of the thioesterase has been identified and a catalytic mechanism, proposed.
