Chondroitin O-methyl ester: an unusual substrate for chondroitin AC lyase.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Chondroitin O-methyl ester was depolymerized by chondroitin AC lyase (EC 4.2.2.5) from Flavobacterium heparinum. The major product isolated from the depolymerization reaction was found to be methyl alpha-L-threo-hex-4-enopyranosyluronate-(1-->4)-2-acetamido-2-deoxy-alpha,beta-D-galactopyranoside.

Preparation of the methyl ester of hyaluronan and its enzymatic degradation.
A methyl ester of hyaluronan in which the carboxyl groups were fully esterified was prepared using trimethylsilyl diazomethane. This derivative, while not depolymerized by hyaluronan lyases or hyaluronan hydrolases, was a substrate for both chondroitin ACI lyase (EC 4.2.2.5) from Flavobacterium heparinum and chondroitin ACII lyase (EC 4.2.2.5) from Arthrobacter aurescens. The major product isol...
متن کاملHigh-resolution crystal structure of Arthrobacter aurescens chondroitin AC lyase: an enzyme-substrate complex defines the catalytic mechanism.
Chondroitin lyases (EC 4.2.2.4 and EC 4.2.2.5) are glycosaminoglycan-degrading enzymes that act as eliminases. Chondroitin lyase AC from Arthrobacter aurescens (ArthroAC) is known to act on chondroitin 4-sulfate and chondroitin 6-sulfate but not on dermatan sulfate. Like other chondroitin AC lyases, it is capable of cleaving hyaluronan. We have determined the three-dimensional crystal structure...
متن کاملPurification, characterization and specificity of chondroitin lyases and glycuronidase from Flavobacterium heparinum.
The chondroitin lyases from Flavobacterium heparinum (Cytophaga heparinia) have been widely used in depolymerization of glycosaminoglycan and proteoglycan chondroitin sulphates. Oligosaccharide products derived from chondroitin sulphate can be further degraded by glycuronidases and sulphatases obtained from the same organism. There has been no reported purification of these enzymes to homogenei...
متن کاملLiquid chromatography-mass spectrometry to study chondroitin lyase action pattern.
Liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry was applied to determine the action pattern of different chondroitin lyases. Two commercial enzymes, chondroitinase ABC (Proteus vulgaris) and chondroitinase ACII (Arthrobacter aurescens), having action patterns previously determined by viscosimetry and gel electrophoresis were first examined. Next, the action patterns of recombinant lyases, chondroitinas...
متن کاملActive site of chondroitin AC lyase revealed by the structure of enzyme-oligosaccharide complexes and mutagenesis.
The crystal structures of Flavobacterium heparinium chondroitin AC lyase (chondroitinase AC; EC 4.2.2.5) bound to dermatan sulfate hexasaccharide (DS(hexa)), tetrasaccharide (DS(tetra)), and hyaluronic acid tetrasaccharide (HA(tetra)) have been refined at 2.0, 2.0, and 2.1 A resolution, respectively. The structure of the Tyr234Phe mutant of AC lyase bound to a chondroitin sulfate tetrasaccharid...
