The crystal structure of metagenomic β-xylosidase/α-l-arabinofuranosidase
CoXyl43, activated by calcium ions, was determined in its apo and complexed
forms with xylotriose or l-arabinose in the presence and absence of calcium. The
presence of calcium ions dramatically increases the kcat of CoXyl43 for
p-nitrophenyl β-d-xylopyranoside and reduces the Michaelis constant for
p-nitrophenyl α-l-arabinofuranoside. CoXyl43 consists of a single catalytic
domain comprised of a five-bladed β-propeller. In the presence of calcium, a
single calcium ion was observed at the centre of this catalytic domain, behind
the catalytic pocket. In the absence of calcium, the calcium ion was replaced
with one sodium ion and one water molecule, and the positions of these cations
were shifted by 1.3 Å. The histidine-319 side chain, which coordinates to the
2-hydroxyl oxygen atom of the bound xylose molecule in the catalytic pocket,
also coordinates to the calcium ion, but not to the sodium ion. The
calcium-dependent increase in activity appears to be caused by the structural
change in the catalytic pocket induced by the tightly bound calcium ion and
coordinating water molecules, and by the protonation state of glutamic acid-268,
the catalytic acid of the enzyme. Our findings further elucidate the complex
relationship between metal ions and glycosidases.
