  ABSTRACT  
 
Polysaccharide-degrading enzymes are generally modular proteins that contain non-catalytic carbohydrate-binding modules (CBMs), which potentiate the activity of the catalytic module. CBMs have been grouped into sequence-based families, and three-dimensional structural data are available for half of these families. Clostridium thermocellum xylanase 11A is a modular enzyme that contains a CBM from family 6 (CBM6), for which no structural data are available. We have determined the crystal structure of this module to a resolution of 2.1 A. The protein is a beta-sandwich that contains two potential ligand-binding clefts designated cleft A and B. The CBM interacts primarily with xylan, and NMR spectroscopy coupled with site-directed mutagenesis identified cleft A, containing Trp-92, Tyr-34, and Asn-120, as the ligand-binding site. The overall fold of CBM6 is similar to proteins in CBM families 4 and 22, although surprisingly the ligand-binding site in CBM4 and CBM22 is equivalent to cleft B in CBM6. These structural data define a superfamily of CBMs, comprising CBM4, CBM6, and CBM22, and demonstrate that, although CBMs have evolved from a relatively small number of ancestors, the structural elements involved in ligand recognition have been assembled at different locations on the ancestral scaffold.

Fig. 1. Electron density map at 2.1 Å and the final structural model represented as sticks. a, final electron density map, contoured at a 1 level, in the region of Tyr-34 and Trp-92, also showing the putative sodium ion. b, electron density map (1 level) showing the presence of a structural calcium ion bridging the N- and C-terminal ends. The figures were produced using the program TURBO-FRODO (26).
Figure 2.
Fig. 2. Ribbon and surface representations of CBM6. a, view showing the ligand-binding cleft (cleft A) formed by the loops between the two -sheets of the sandwich fold. b, surface representation of CBM6 in the same orientation as in a. The shallow binding cleft on top of the globular molecule is formed by Tyr-34 and Trp-92. c, ribbon representation of CBM6 in a perpendicular view with respect to a, showing the second possible cleft (cleft B), which is obstructed by a short loop in CBM6, situated on the concave face of the -sheet sandwich. a and c were produced with Molscript (45) and Raster3D (46), whereas b was produced using GRASP (47).

The most recent references are shown first. Citation data come partly from CiteXplore and partly from an automated harvesting procedure. Note that this is likely to be only a partial list as not all journals are covered by either method. However, we are continually building up the citation data so more and more references will be included with time. Where a reference describes a PDB structure, the PDB code is shown on the right.
