additional information | construction of a truncated mutant (DELTAWT), comprising residues 78-458 (corresponding to the catalytic domain only) and lacking the carbohydrate-binding domain (CBM1). Neither the truncation nor the deglycosylation affects protein stability significantly | Cerrena unicolor |
S270A | site-directed mutagenesis, truncated mutant S270A is an inactive variant of the truncated mutant DELTAWT where the catalytic serine is replaced with an alanine. The inactive truncated variant S270A is destabilized by ca 3°C compared to variants with an intact catalytic triad, implying that some stabilizing interactions have been lost, but the overall conclusion is that CuGE is a highly stable enzyme with Ti's in the range of 72.2-75.8°C for all variants. Binding between truncated S270A and the 4-O-methyl-glucuronoyl moiety alone has about 10times higher dissociation constant compared to binding of aldotetrauronic acid (Um4XX-OH) | Cerrena unicolor |

More | the enzyme is modular, comprised of a catalytic and a carbohydrate-binding domain. CuGE is an elongated rigid molecule where the two domains are connected by a rigid linker. The overall fold of the catalytic domain of CuGE features a large ten-stranded twisted beta-sheet flanked by alpha-helical elements and a surface-exposed active site. The structure complies with the characteristics of a serine esterase belonging to the alpha/beta-hydrolase superfamily | Cerrena unicolor |

evolution | CuGE is an alpha/beta-hydrolase belonging to carbohydrate esterase family 15 (CE15), part of the alpha/beta-hydrolase superfamily. CuGE belongs to the group of fungal CE15-B enzymes with an open and flat substrate-binding site. Conservation of carbohydrate recognition among fungal CE15s. The fungal members of CE15-A display low overall sequence identity compared to the members of CE15-B, furthermore they differ in the configuration of the catalytic triad. The overall sequence identity within the fungal CE15-A group is 40-75%, whereas the sequence identity between the two groups is merely 25-36%. Residues involved in carbohydrate recognition are almost invariant among fungal CE15-B enzymes and most of these residues appear to be conserved in fungal CE15-A members | Cerrena unicolor |
additional information | catalytic domain structure analysis, overview. Wild-type CuGE has a modular architecture with a N-terminal carbohydrate-binding module 1 (CBM1) domain connected to the catalytic domain by a proline-rich linker region. The structure of CuGE is potentially flexible and shows heterogenous N- and O-glycosylation. Active site architecture and ligand-induced oxyanion hole.
