Comments
This enzyme belongs to glycosidase family-58, with a retaining mechanism.
This enzyme is homologous to a counterpart enzyme from Bacillus licheniformis (S00912 in EzCatDB). Although the homologous enzyme binds calcium ion, this enzyme does not bind any ion.
According to the literature [6], the reaction proceeds as follows:
(0) Arg45 and Tyr215 modulate the pKa of catalytic nucleophile, Glu246.
(1) Glu136 acts as a general acid to protonate the leaving oxygen, O4 atom at subsite +1, forming an oxocarbenium-ion-like transition-state. The transition-state is stabilized by Asn135 and Tyr215 through hydrogen bonding to the oxygen atoms at subsite -1. (SN1-like reaction)
(2) Glu246 makes a nucleophilic attack on C1 atom of substrate, galactan, to form a covalent intermediate.
(3) Glu136 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. Thus, the substitution reaction completes.
