Comments
This enzyme belongs to the glycosidase family-33. This enzyme is composed of three domains, the N-terminal catalytic domain, Immunoglobulin-like domain, and the C-terminal F5/8 type C domain.
Although Sodium is included as a cofactor, it is not involved in catalysis. It maintains the conformation of the C-terminal domain.(see [3])
According to the literature [7], the catalytic reaction proceeds as follows:
(1) Asp92 acts as a general acid, to protonate the leaving group, through a water molecule, to give an oxacarbenium ion-like transition state. (SN1-like reaction)
(2) Tyr370, whose pKa is probably modulated by Glu260, makes a nucleophilic attack on the C2 atom of the transition-state, to form a siaryl-enzyme intermediate.
(3) Asp92 acts as a general base, to activate the water.
(4) The activated water makes a nucleophilic attack on the intermediate, to complete the hydrolysis.
###
According to the literature [7], sialyl-based ketal must be much more reactive than ordinary O-glycoside bond.
