Creating lipoxygenases with new positional specificities by site-directed mutagenesis.

In order to analyse the amino acid determinants which alter the positional specificity of plant lipoxygenases (LOXs), multiple LOX sequence alignments and structural modelling of the enzyme-substrate interactions were carried out. These alignments suggested three amino acid residues as the primary determinants of positional specificity. Here we show the generation of two plant LOXs with new pos...

Catalytic mechanism of heparinase II investigated by site-directed mutagenesis and the crystal structure with its substrate.

Heparinase II (HepII) is an 85-kDa dimeric enzyme that depolymerizes both heparin and heparan sulfate glycosaminoglycans through a beta-elimination mechanism. Recently, we determined the crystal structure of HepII from Pedobacter heparinus (previously known as Flavobacterium heparinum) in complex with a heparin disaccharide product, and identified the location of its active site. Here we presen...

Substrate specificities of caspase family proteases.

The caspase family represents a new class of intracellular cysteine proteases with known or suspected roles in cytokine maturation and apoptosis. These enzymes display a preference for Asp in the P1 position of substrates. To clarify differences in the biological roles of the interleukin-1beta converting enzyme (ICE) family proteases, we have examined in detail the specificities beyond the P1 p...

Recognition of C-terminal amide groups by (serine) carboxypeptidase Y investigated by site-directed mutagenesis.

Serine carboxypeptidases have the ability to hydrolyze peptides as well as peptide amides. Previously, it has been demonstrated that Asn51 and Glu145 (in the protonated form) each donate a hydrogen bond to the alpha-carboxylate of peptide substrate. It is here demonstrated by characterization of carboxypeptidase Y derivatives, mutationally altered at positions 51 and 145, that the same groups a...
