ABSTRACT
|
|
|
| |
|
BACKGROUND: Chitinases cleave the beta-1-4-glycosidic bond between the
N-acetyl-D-glucosamine units of which chitin is comprised. Chitinases are
present in plants, bacteria and fungi, but whereas structures are available for
two prototypic plant enzymes, no structure is available for a bacterial or
fungal chitinase. RESULTS: To redress this imbalance, the structure of native
chitinase A from Serratia marcescens has been solved by multiple isomorphous
replacement and refined at 2.3 A resolution, resulting in a crystallographic
R-factor of 16.2%. The enzyme comprises three domains: an all beta-strand
amino-terminal domain, a catalytic alpha/beta-barrel domain, and a small
alpha+beta-fold domain. There are several residues with unusual geometries in
the structure. Structure determination of chitinase A in complex with
N,N',N",N"'-tetra-acetylo-chitotetraose, together with biochemical and
sequence analysis data, enabled the positions of the active-site and catalytic
residues to be proposed. CONCLUSIONS: The reaction mechanism seems to be similar
to that of lysozyme and most other glycosylhydrolases, i.e. general acid-base
catalysis. The role of the amino-terminal domain could not be identified, but it
has similarities to the fibronectin III domain. This domain may possibly
facilitate the interaction of chitinase A with chitin.

Figure 8. Difference density (F[o]–F[c] , with phases from
the native model) clearly showing the bound NAG. The active-site
residues are shown. Density is contoured at the 4σ level. The
orientation of the ring is not clear, and it is modelled in the
most likely position according to chemical knowledge of the
reaction mechanism, as described in the text. The role of water
181 is unclear. It is presented here to show the interpretation
of this density. Figure drawn using O/OPLOT [39]. Figure 8.

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
codes are
shown on the right.
