The enzyme, characterized from Gram-positive bacteria, hydrolyses the phosphoramidate (P-N) bond of Nomega-phospho-L-arginine residues in proteins and peptides that were phosphorylated by EC 2.7.14.1, protein-arginine-kinase.
an enzyme deletion strain accumulates arginine phosphorylated proteins and allows for identification of 121 phosphorylation sites for 87 proteins. Protein arginine phosphorylation has a functional role and is involved in the regulation of many critical cellular processes, such as protein degradation, motility, competence, and stringent and stress responses
a mutant lacking the YwlE arginine phosphatase accumulates a strikingly large number of arginine phosphorylations i.e. 217 sites in 134 proteins, however only a minor fraction of these sites is increasingly modified during heat shock or oxidative stress. The main proteins accumulating comprise central factors of the stress response system including the CtsR and HrcA heat shock repressors, as well as major components of the protein quality control system such as the ClpCP protease and the GroEL chaperonine

in complex with phosphate.The phosphate-binding site is formed by the side chain of Arg13, the backbone amides of the phosphate-loop and the positive end of the macrodipole of helix H1, which together generate a highly positively charged pocket at the bottom of the substrate-binding cleft. The substrate-mimicking Arg149 is sandwiched between Thr11, Asp118, and Phe120 with its guanidinium group hydrogen bonding to Asp118. Structure of mutant C7S in complex with phosphate shows the formation of a covalent phospho-Ser7 adduct indicating that the crystallized mutant mimics the phospho-enzyme intermediate of the dephosphorylation reaction

development of a substrate-trapping mutant that retains binding affinity toward arginine-phosphorylated proteins but cannot hydrolyze the captured substrates. Mutant C9A stably binds to arginine-phosphorylated proteins. The substrate-trapping efficiency is improved by impeding the oligomerization of the phosphatase mutant. The engineered YwlE trap efficiently captures arginine-phosphorylated proteins from complex Bacillus subtilis ywlE- cell extracts, thus facilitating identification of phosphoarginine sites in the large pool of cellular protein modifications
