Function[ACXB_XANP2] Catalyzes the carboxylation of acetone to form acetoacetate. Has a reduced activity on butanone, and no activity on 2-pentatone, 3-pentatone, 2-hexanone, chloroacetone, pyruvate, phosphoenolpyruvate, acetaldehyde, propionaldehyde and propylene oxide.[1] [ACXC_XANP2] Catalyzes the carboxylation of acetone to form acetoacetate. Has a reduced activity on butanone, and no activity on 2-pentatone, 3-pentatone, 2-hexanone, chloroacetone, pyruvate, phosphoenolpyruvate, acetaldehyde, propionaldehyde and propylene oxide.[2] [ACXA_XANP2] Catalyzes the carboxylation of acetone to form acetoacetate. Has a reduced activity on butanone, and no activity on 2-pentatone, 3-pentatone, 2-hexanone, chloroacetone, pyruvate, phosphoenolpyruvate, acetaldehyde, propionaldehyde and propylene oxide.[3] Publication Abstract from PubMedMicroorganisms use carboxylase enzymes to form new carbon-carbon bonds by introducing carbon dioxide gas (CO2) or its hydrated form, bicarbonate (HCO3-), into target molecules. Acetone carboxylases (ACs) catalyze the conversion of substrates acetone and HCO3- to form the product acetoacetate. Many bicarbonate-incorporating carboxylases rely on the organic cofactor biotin for the activation of bicarbonate. ACs contain metal ions but not organic cofactors, and use ATP to activate substrates through phosphorylation. How the enzyme coordinates these phosphorylation events and new C-C bond formation in the absence of biotin has remained a mystery since these enzymes were discovered. The first structural rationale for acetone carboxylation is presented here, focusing on the 360 kDa (alphabetagamma)2 heterohexameric AC from Xanthobacter autotrophicus in the ligand-free, AMP-bound, and acetate coordinated states. These structures suggest successive steps in a catalytic cycle revealing that AC undergoes large conformational changes coupled to substrate activation by ATP to perform C-C bond ligation at a distant Mn center. These results illustrate a new chemical strategy for the conversion of CO2 into biomass, a process of great significance to the global carbon cycle.
