Comments
This enzyme belongs to chalcone synthase family in thiolase superfamily (see [21]). This enzyme is homologous to the counterpart enzyme from different bacteria (D00825 and D00867 in EzCatDB), with a slightly different catalytic site. Moreover, these enzymes are categorized in type III of beta-ketoacyl-acyl-carrier protein synthases (KAS).
According to the literature, the catalysis proceeds through the Ping-Pong reaction mechanism.
According to the literature [2], [3], [5], [9], [10], [14], [15] and [21], this enzyme catalyzes the following reactions:
(A) Transfer of acyl group from sulfur atom of acetyl-CoA to catalytic cysteine (see [9]):
(A0) Asn274 (of 1hzp) modulate the pKa of His244, whereas His244 may lower the pKa of the sidechain of Cys112.
(A1) Glu140 (of 1hzp) acts as a general base to deprotonate the nucleophile, Cys112, through the sidechain of Ser276. (Helix dipole moment may also activate the cysteine sidechain.)
(A2) The activated thiol group of Cys112 makes a nucleophilic attack on the acetyl group of acetyl-CoA, leading to a transition-state (I00132). The oxyanion hole, composed of the mainchain amide groups of Cys112 and Ala306, stabilizes the negative charge of the oxyanion on the tetrahedral transition-state (I00132).
(A3) His244 acts as a general acid to protonate the leaving sulfur atom of CoA, generating an acetyl group on Cys112 (I00133).
(B) Decarboxylation of malonyl-ACP (Elimination of carboxylate group from malonyl group) forming carbanion/enolate transition-state (I00134):
(B0) Asn274 and His244 interact with the carbonyl oxygen of the second substrate, malonyl-ACP, and stabilize it.
(B1) His244 may act as a general base to deprotonate the carboxylic group of malonyl-ACP, to facilitate the decarboxylation. This reaction generates a carbanion/enolate transition-state (I00134). The enolate is stabilized by Asn274 and His244.
(C) Transfer of acetyl group from catalytic cysteine to carbanion on the transition-state (I00134):
(C0) Asn274 and His244 stabilize the enol group of the transition-state (I00134).
(C1) The carbanion makes a nucleophilic attack on the acetyl group of the acetyl intermediate (I00133), forming a tetrahedral transition-state (I00135). The oxyanion of the tetrahedral transition-state (I00135) is stabilized by the oxyanion hole composed of the mainchain amide groups of Cys112 and Ala306.
(C2) Glu140 may act as a general acid to protonate the leaving catalytic residue, Cys112, through the sidechain of Ser276.
