Insight into autoproteolytic activation from the structure of cephalosporin acylase: a protein with two proteolytic chemistries.
Cephalosporin acylase (CA), a member of the N-terminal nucleophile hydrolase family, is activated through sequential primary and secondary autoproteolytic reactions with the release of a pro segment. We have determined crystal structures of four CA mutants. Two mutants are trapped after the primary cleavage, and the other two undergo secondary cleavage slowly. These structures provide a look at...
متن کاملAnalysis of a substrate specificity switch residue of cephalosporin acylase.
Residue Phe375 of cephalosporin acylase has been identified as one of the residues that is involved in substrate specificity. A complete mutational analysis was performed by substituting Phe375 with the 19 other amino acids and characterising all purified mutant enzymes. Several mutations cause a substrate specificity shift from the preferred substrate of the enzyme, glutaryl-7-ACA, towards the...
متن کاملStructure of a class III engineered cephalosporin acylase: comparisons with class I acylase and implications for differences in substrate specificity and catalytic activity.
The crystal structure of the wild-type form of glutaryl-7-ACA (7-aminocephalosporanic acid) acylase from Pseudomonas N176 and a double mutant of the protein (H57βS/H70βS) that displays enhanced catalytic efficiency on cephalosporin C over glutaryl-7-aminocephalosporanic acid has been determined. The structures show a heterodimer made up of an α-chain (229 residues) and a β-chain (543 residues) ...
متن کاملA single amino acid substitution converts gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase to a class IV cephalosporin acylase (glutaryl-7-aminocephalosporanic acid acylase).
The aspartyl residue at position 433 of gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase of Escherichia coli K-12 was replaced by an asparaginyl residue. This substitution enabled gamma-glutamyltranspeptidase to deacylate glutaryl-7-aminocephalosporanic acid, producing 7-aminocephalosporanic acid, which is a starting material for the synthesis of semisynthetic cephalosporins.
متن کاملAltering the substrate specificity of cephalosporin acylase by directed evolution of the Beta -subunit.
Using directed evolution, we have selected an adipyl acylase enzyme that can be used for a one-step bioconversion of adipyl-7-aminodesacetoxycephalosporanic acid (adipyl-7-ADCA) to 7-ADCA, an important compound for the synthesis of semisynthetic cephalosporins. The starting point for the directed evolution was the glutaryl acylase from Pseudomonas SY-77. The gene fragment encoding the beta-subu...
