LITERATURE
evolution
Clostridium acetobutylicum ATCC 824 gene CA_C0359 encodes a putative unsaturated rhamnogalacturonyl hydrolase (URH) with distant amino-acid sequence homology to YteR of Bacillus subtilis strain 168. YteR, like other URHs, has core structural homology to unsaturated glucuronyl hydrolases, but hydrolyzes the unsaturated disaccharide derivative of rhamnogalacturonan I. There is a conserved aspartic acid residue in both structures, which has been shown to be important for hydration of the C=C bond during the release of unsaturated galacturonic acid by YteR. A surface electrostatic potential comparison of CA_C0359 and proteins from CAZy families GH88 and GH105 reveals the make-up of the active site to be a combination of the unsaturated rhamnogalacturonyl hydrolase (EC 3.2.1.172) and the unsaturated glucuronyl hydrolase (EC 3.2.1.179) from Bacillus subtilis strain 168. Structural and electrostatic comparisons suggest that the enzyme may have a slightly different substrate specificity from that of YteR
malfunction
SagUGL mutants D115N and D115N/K370S show negligible enzyme activity. The side chain of Asn115 is drastically shifted in both mutants owing to the interaction with several residues, including Asp175, by formation of hydrogen bonds. This interaction between Asn115 and Asp175 probably prevents the mutants from triggering the enzyme reaction using Asp175 as an acid catalyst
