Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
additional information expression of truncated enzyme variants as His-tagged proteins. Fragments encompassing residues 1-345 and 346-712 represent the functional glutamine amide-hydrolysing GAH and hexose phosphate-isomerizing domains ISOM, respectively. The native GAH domain is monomeric, whereas the native ISOM domain forms tetramers, as does the whole enzyme. The binding site for the feedback inhibitor, uridine 5'-diphospho-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine, is located in the ISOM domain. Inhibitor binding affects amidohydrolysing activity of the GAH domain and, as a consequence, the D-glucosamine-6-phosphate-synthetic activity of the whole enzyme. The fragment containing residues 218-283 is neither involved in ligand binding nor in protein oligomerization. An intramolecular channel connects the GAH and ISOM domains. The channel becomes leaky upon deletion of amino acids 709-712 and in the W97F and W97G mutants Candida albicans
V711F mutation results in an almost complete elimination of the GlcN-6-P-synthetic activity, with the retention of the amidohydrolase and sugar phosphate-isomerizing activities Candida albicans
V711F reduction of the glucosamine 6-phosphate-synthetic activity, with the retention of the amidohydrolase and sugar phosphate-isomerizing activities Candida albicans
W97F mutation results in an almost complete elimination of the GlcN-6-P synthetic activity, with the retention of the amidohydrolase and sugar phosphate-isomerizing activities Candida albicans
W97F reduction of the glucosamine 6-phosphate-synthetic activity, with the retention of the amidohydrolase and sugar phosphate-isomerizing activities. Residue W97 functions as a molecular gate, opening and closing the intramolecular channel that connects the glutamine amide-hydrolysing and hexose phosphate-isomerizing domains Candida albicans
W97G mutation results in an almost complete elimination of the GlcN-6-P-synthetic activity, with the retention of the amidohydrolase and sugar phosphate-isomerizing activities Candida albicans
W97G almost complete elimination of the glucosamine 6-phosphate-synthetic activity, with the retention of the amidohydrolase and sugar phosphate-isomerizing activities.
