CRYSTAL STRUCTURE OF EXO-1,3-BETA GLUCANSE FROM SACCHAROMYCES CEREVISIAE

Overview

We present in vitro data that explain the recognition mechanism of, misfolded glycoproteins by UDP-glucose glycoprotein-glucosyltransferase, (UGGT). The glycoprotein exo-(1,3)-beta-glucanase (beta-Glc) bearing two, glycans unfolds in a pH-dependent manner to become a misfolded substrate, for UGGT. In the crystal structure of this glycoprotein, the local, hydrophobicity surrounding each glycosylation site coincides with the, differential recognition of N-linked glycans by UGGT. We introduced a, single F280S point mutation, producing a beta-Glc protein with full, enzymatic activity that was both recognized as misfolded and, monoglucosylated by UGGT. Contrary to current views, these data show that, UGGT can modify N-linked glycans positioned at least 40 A from localized, regions of disorder and sense subtle conformational changes within, structurally compact, enzymatically active glycoprotein substrates.
