Comments
This enzyme belongs to glycosidase family-58, with a retaining mechanism.
This enzyme is homologous to a counterpart enzyme from fungi (S00748 in EzCatDB).
Although this enzyme binds calcium ion, it is not involved in catalysis. The reactiom mechanism must be similar to that of the homologous enzyme.
According to the literature [6], the reaction mechanism proceeds as follows:
(0) Arg66 and Tyr234 modulate the pKa of catalytic nucleophile, Glu263.
(1) Glu165 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 Asn164 and Tyr234 through hydrogen bonding to the oxygen atoms at subsite -1. (SN1-like reaction)
(2) Glu263 makes a nucleophilic attack on C1 atom of substrate, galactan, to form a covalent intermediate.
(3) Glu165 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.
