Enzyme Mechanism

Introduction

This is a retaining mannanase, in which the glycosidic oxygen is protonated by Glu128 (proton donor) and the anomeric carbon atom is attacked by Glu225 (nucleophile). The resulting mannosyl–mannanase intermediate is then hydrolysed by a water molecule, generating a product with the same anomeric configuration as the substrate.

Catalytic Residues Roles

UniProt PDB* (1bqc)
His194 His196A Modifies the pKa of Glu128 such that it can act as the general acid/base. modifies pKa
Trp252 Trp254A Provides a hydrophobic environment to bind and stabilise the intermediates. activator, electrostatic stabiliser
Glu223 Glu225A Acts as the nucleophile. covalent catalysis
Asn125 Asn127A Helps position and stabilise Arg50. It may also interact with the equatorial HO–C(2) in cellulases. Probable role in transition state stabiisation. electrostatic stabiliser
Glu126 Glu128A Acts as the general acid/base. proton shuttle (general acid/base)
Tyr196, Arg48 Tyr198A, Arg50A Acts to modify the pKa of Glu225, ensuring it is correctly protonated to act as the nucleophile. modifies pKa
*PDB label guide - RESx(y)B(C) - RES: Residue Name; x: Residue ID in PDB file; y: Residue ID in PDB sequence if different from PDB file; B: PDB Chain; C: Biological Assembly Chain if different from PDB. If label is "Not Found" it means this residue is not found in the reference PDB.
