Comments
This enzyme belongs to the glycosidase family-5.
This enzyme is composed of N-terminal catalytic domain and C-terminal carbohydrate binding module.
According to the literature [11] and [13], beta-mannanase belonging to the glycosidase family-5 can be divided into three subfamilies. This enzyme and a counterpart enzyme (S00906 in EzCatDB), which are from bacteria, belong to subfamily-8. On the other hand, an enzyme group from plant and fungi (eukaryote) (S00210 in EzCatDB) belongs to subfamily-7, whereas another enzyme group from mollusc (eukaryote) (S00907 in EzCatDB) belongs to subfamily-10. However, the catalytic site seems to be conserved among these three subfamilies and other related enzymes in family-5.
Thus, the reaction proceeds as follows (see [8] and [11]):
(0) His223 (of 1wky) may modulate the activity of acid/base, Glu158, whereas Tyr225 may modulate the activity of nucleophile, Glu253. Moreover, Arg83 may modulate the nucleophile, Glu253, as well.
(1) Glu158 acts as a general acid to protonate the leaving oxygen in mannan, whereas Glu253 approaches the C1 atom of substrate mannan as a nucleophile. This process leads to an oxocarbenium-like transition-state (half-chair conformation; 4H3). The transition-state is stabilized by Asn157 (and probably Tyr225).
(2) Glu253 makes a nucleophilic attack on the C1 atom of mannosyl group, to form a covalent intermediate, whereas the leaving group is cleaved from mannosyl group at subsite -1.
(3) Glu158 acts as a general base to deprotonate a water molecule, to activate it.
(4) The activated water makes a nucleophilic attack on the C1 atom of the covalent intermediate. Finally, the reaction completes.
