SUGAR RING DISTORTION IN THE GLYCOSYL-ENZYME INTERMEDIATE OF A FAMILY G/11 XYLANASE
Overview
The 1.8 A resolution structure of the glycosyl-enzyme intermediate formed, on the retaining beta-1,4-xylanase from Bacillus circulans has been, determined using X-ray crystallographic techniques. The 2-fluoro-xylose, residue bound in the -1 subsite adopts a 2,5B (boat) conformation, allowing atoms C5, O5, C1, and C2 of the sugar to achieve coplanarity as, required at the oxocarbenium ion-like transition states of the, double-displacement catalytic mechanism. Comparison of this structure to, that of a mutant of this same enzyme noncovalently complexed with, xylotetraose [Wakarchuk et al. (1994) Protein Sci. 3, 467-475] reveals a, number of differences beyond the distortion of the sugar moiety. Most, notably, a bifurcated hydrogen bond interaction is formed in the, glycosyl-enzyme ...
