2-ENOYL-COA HYDRATASE, DATA COLLECTED AT 100 K, PH 6.5

Overview

The crystal structure of rat liver mitochondrial enoyl-coenzyme A (CoA), hydratase complexed with the potent inhibitor acetoacetyl-CoA has been, refined at 2.5 angstroms resolution. This enzyme catalyses the reversible, addition of water to alpha,beta-unsaturated enoyl-CoA thioesters, with, nearly diffusion-controlled reaction rates for the best substrates., Enoyl-CoA hydratase is a hexamer of six identical subunits of 161 kDa, molecular mass for the complex. The hexamer is a dimer of trimers. The, monomer is folded into a right-handed spiral of four turns, followed by, two small domains which are involved in trimerization. Each turn of the, spiral consists of two beta-strands and an alpha-helix. The mechanism for, the hydratase/dehydratase reaction follows a syn-stereochemistry, a, preference that is opposite to the nonenzymatic reaction. The active-site, architecture agrees with this stereochemistry. It confirms the importance, of Glu164 as the catalytic acid for providing the alpha-proton during the, hydratase reaction. It also shows the importance of Glu144 as the, catalytic base for the activation of a water molecule in the hydratase, reaction. The comparison of an unliganded and a liganded active site, within the same crystal form shows a water molecule in the unliganded, subunit. This water molecule is bound between the two catalytic glutamates, and could serve as the activated water during catalysis.
