  ABSTRACT  
 
The X-ray structure of cold-active beta-galactosidase (isoenzyme C-2-2-1) from an Antarctic bacterium Arthrobacter sp. C2-2 was solved at 1.9A resolution. The enzyme forms 660 kDa hexamers with active sites opened to the central cavity of the hexamer and connected by eight channels with exterior solvent. To our best knowledge, this is the first cold-active beta-galactosidase with known structure and also the first known beta-galactosidase structure in the form of compact hexamers. The hexamer organization regulates access of substrates and ligands to six active sites and this unique packing, present also in solution, raises questions about its purpose and function. This enzyme belongs to glycosyl hydrolase family 2, similarly to Escherichia coli beta-galactosidase, forming tetramers necessary for its enzymatic function. However, we discovered significant differences between these two enzymes affecting the ability of tetramer/hexamer formation and complementation of the active site. This structure reveals new insights into the cold-adaptation mechanisms of enzymatic pathways of extremophiles.

Figure 4.
Figure 4. A cross-section of the hexamer of b-galactosidase from Arthrobacter sp. C2-2 (cutting plane in black). The inner cavity is connected with exterior space by eight channels of three types, I, II and III. Five of the channels can be seen here. The active sites of all monomers are opened into this inner cavity. The cavity is partly filled by localized water molecules (yellow spheres). The colouring scheme of monomers is the same as in Figure 3. The Figure was prepared in INSIGHTII (Accelrys).
Figure 5.
Figure 5. Surface contact regions of monomer A in (a) the hexamer of C221-b-Gal and (b) the tetramer of EC-b-Gal, both in the same orientation of the monomer A. The active site residues are in green: Glu442, Glu521, Trp552 and Cys999 (C221-b-Gal); Glu461, Glu537, Trp568 and Trp999 (EC-b-Gal). The capital letters mark the surface areas (distinguished by different colouring) involved in contacts with the corresponding monomers. The solvent-accessible surface was coloured on the basis of non-zero contact area of a given atom (program AREAIMOL in CCP423). (c) Comparison of monomer A placing in the hexamer of C221-b-Gal and the tetramer of EC-b-Gal, using the same colouring scheme as for surface contacts in (a) and (b). The Figure was prepared in INSIGHTII (Accelrys).

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.
