The active site topology of Aspergillus niger endopolygalacturonase II as studied by site-directed mutagenesis.
Strictly conserved charged residues among polygalacturonases (Asp-180, Asp-201, Asp-202, His-223, Arg-256, and Lys-258) were subjected to site-directed mutagenesis in Aspergillus niger endopolygalacturonase II. Specific activity, product progression, and kinetic parameters (K(m) and V(max)) were determined on polygalacturonic acid for the purified mutated enzymes, and bond cleavage frequencies ...
متن کاملIdentification of active site residues of Escherichia coli fumarate reductase by site-directed mutagenesis.
Menaquinol-fumarate oxidoreductase of Escherichia coli is a four-subunit membrane-bound complex that catalyzes the final step in anaerobic respiration when fumarate is the terminal electron acceptor. The enzyme is structurally and catalytically similar to succinate dehydrogenase (succinate-ubiquinone oxidoreductase) from both procaryotes and eucaryotes. Both enzymes have been proposed to contai...
متن کاملSite Directed Mutagenesis of Amino Acid Residues at the Active Site of Mouse Aldehyde Oxidase AOX1
Mouse aldehyde oxidase (mAOX1) forms a homodimer and belongs to the xanthine oxidase family of molybdoenzymes which are characterized by an essential equatorial sulfur ligand coordinated to the molybdenum atom. In general, mammalian AOs are characterized by broad substrate specificity and an yet obscure physiological function. To define the physiological substrates and the enzymatic characteris...
متن کاملSite-directed mutagenesis of proposed active-site residues of penicillin-binding protein 5 from Escherichia coli.
Alignment of the amino acid sequence of penicillin-binding protein 5 (PBP5) with the sequences of other members of the family of active-site-serine penicillin-interacting enzymes predicted the residues playing a role in the catalytic mechanism of PBP5. Apart from the active-site (Ser44), Lys47, Ser110-Gly-Asn, Asp175 and Lys213-Thr-Gly were identified as the residues making up the conserved box...
متن کاملSite-directed mutagenesis of active site residues in a class I endochitinase from chestnut seeds.
Despite the intensive research on plant chitinases, largely bolstered by their antifungal properties, little is known at present about the structure-activity relationships of these enzymes. Here we report the identification of essential active site residues in endochitinase Ch3, a class I enzyme abundant in chestnut seeds. Knowledge-based protein modeling as well as structural and sequence comp...
