CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF A DEACYLATION-DEFECTIVE MUTANT OF PENICILLIN-BINDING PROTEIN 5 AT 2.3 A RESOLUTION

Overview

Penicillin-binding protein 5 (PBP 5) of Escherichia coli functions as a, d-alanine carboxypeptidase, cleaving the C-terminal d-alanine residue from, cell wall peptides. Like all PBPs, PBP 5 forms a covalent acyl-enzyme, complex with beta-lactam antibiotics; however, PBP 5 is distinguished by, its high rate of deacylation of the acyl-enzyme complex (t(12), approximately 9 min). A Gly-105 --> Asp mutation in PBP 5 markedly impairs, this beta-lactamase activity (deacylation), with only minor effects on, acylation, and promotes accumulation of a covalent complex with peptide, substrates. To gain further insight into the catalytic mechanism of PBP 5, we determined the three-dimensional structure of the G105D mutant form of, soluble PBP 5 (termed sPBP 5') at 2.3 A resolution. The structure ... [(full description)]
