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 کاملSite-directed mutagenesis of predicted active site residues in glutamate carboxypeptidase II.
Glutamate carboxypeptidase II (GCP II) catalyzes the extracellular hydrolysis of the neuromodulator N-acetyl-aspartylglutamate to N-acetyl-aspartate and glutamate. GCP II also hydrolyzes gamma-glutamyl bonds in folylpolyglutamate. The predicted amino acid sequence of GCP II displays similarities to aminopeptidases from Streptomyces griseus and Vibrio proteolyticus, whose crystal structures have...
متن کاملTheoretical site-directed mutagenesis: Asp168Ala mutant of lactate dehydrogenase.
Molecular simulations based on the use of hybrid quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics methods are able to provide detailed information about the complex enzymatic reactions and the consequences of specific mutations on the activity of the enzyme. In this work, the reduction of pyruvate to lactate catalysed by wild-type and Asp168Ala mutant lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) has been studied by means ...
متن کاملSite-Directed Mutagenesis Study
Structural elements of the rat 1.t-opioid receptor important in ligand receptor binding and selectivity were examined using a site-directed mutagenesis approach. Five single amino acid mutations were made, three that altered conserved residues in the ~ 8, and K receptors (Asn 15°t Ala, His297 to Ala, and Tyr326 to Phe) and wo de igned to test for ~i/8 selectivity (lie198 to Val and Va1202 to li...
متن کاملMolecular modelling and site-directed mutagenesis of the active site of endothelin-converting enzyme.
Mammalian endothelin-converting enzyme is a membrane-bound metalloprotease; its C-terminal domain contains sequence motifs characteristic of zinc metalloproteases. We examined residues expected from molecular modelling to be important for substrate binding using selectively mutated recombinant rat ECE-1alpha expressed in CHO cells. A conserved N-A-Ar-Ar (Ar = aromatic) motif is likely to be imp...
