  ABSTRACT  
 
Thermococcus litoralis 4-alpha-glucanotransferase (TLGT) belongs to glucoside hydrolase family 57 and catalyzes the disproportionation of amylose and the formation of large cyclic alpha-1,4-glucan (cycloamylose) from linear amylose. We determined the crystal structure of TLGT with and without an inhibitor, acarbose. TLGT is composed of two domains: an N-terminal domain (domain I), which contains a (beta/alpha)7 barrel fold, and a C-terminal domain (domain II), which has a twisted beta-sandwich fold. In the structure of TLGT complexed with acarbose, the inhibitor was bound at the cleft within domain I, indicating that domain I is a catalytic domain of TLGT. The acarbose-bound structure also clarified that Glu123 and Asp214 were the catalytic nucleophile and acid/base catalyst, respectively, and revealed the residues involved in substrate binding. It seemed that TLGT produces large cyclic glucans by preventing the production of small cyclic glucans by steric hindrance, which is achieved by three lids protruding into the active site cleft, as well as an extended active site cleft. Interestingly, domain I of TLGT shares some structural features with the catalytic domain of Golgi alpha-mannosidase from Drosophila melanogaster, which belongs to glucoside hydrolase family 38. Furthermore, the catalytic residue of the two enzymes is located in the same position. These observations suggest that families 57 and 38 evolved from a common ancestor.

Figure 4.
FIG. 4. Bound ligands in the form II complex of TLGT. Stereoviews of the refined models of acarbose in chain A (a) and maltose in chain B(b) are presented, together with F[o] - F[c] electron density maps contoured at 4 . Each ligand was omitted from the phase calculation. c, acarbose and the two catalytic residues. a and b were generated using XtalView (26) and Raster3d (45). 		Figure 7.
FIG. 7. Surface representation around the active site of TLGT. The molecular surface of chain A of the form II-complex, a bound acarbose, and a modeled maltotetradecaose are presented. The C atoms of acarbose and maltotetradecaose are colored white and yellow, respectively. The oxygen and nitrogen atoms are colored red and blue, respectively. Lid 2 is concealed behind lid 3. The figures were prepared with the programs SPOCK (49), Molscript (44), and Raster3d (45).

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.
