Comments
This family belongs to the glycosidase family-10, which has a retaining mechanism (equatorial to equatorial conformation), and also a family of 4/7 superfamily, which has got catalytic residues at the C-terminal ends of beta-4 and beta-7 on the (alpha/beta)8 barrel fold.
According to the literature [22], Glu236 and Glu128 (of 1ece) act as a nucleophile and acid-base, respectively. The catalysis proceeds through a dissociative-type (or SN1-like) mechanism, with a formation of oxocarbonium ion in the transition state, during the glycosylation of the active site.
During the glycosylation, Glu236 approaches the C1 atom of xylan substrate, whilst Glu128 protonates the leaving sugar group.
At the second stage, or during the deglycosylation, a water molecule can be activated by a general base, Glu128. This deglycosylation also goes through the dissociative-type reaction with an oxocarbonium ion in the transition state, in which water replaced the xylan leaving group in the first step.
According to the paper [19], the conserved residue at active site, Asn127, may stabilize the intermediate or transition state. Meanwhile, the paper [20] mentioned that His86 might modulate the acid-base catalyst (Glu128), by maintaining the elevated pKa of the catalytic residue.
Moreover, comparing the structural data with that of the other family-10 enzyme, xylanase (E.C. 3.2.1.8) (D00479 in EzCatDB), His207-Asp238 dyad seems to stabilize the leaving nucleophile, Glu236, during the deglycosylation.
