ABSTRACT
|
|
|
| |
|
The gene Rv1885c from the genome of Mycobacterium tuberculosis H37Rv encodes a
monofunctional and secreted chorismate mutase (*MtCM) with a 33-amino-acid
cleavable signal sequence; hence, it belongs to the *AroQ class of chorismate
mutases. Consistent with the heterologously expressed *MtCM having periplasmic
destination in Escherichia coli and the absence of a discrete periplasmic
compartment in M. tuberculosis, we show here that *MtCM secretes into the
culture filtrate of M. tuberculosis. *MtCM functions as a homodimer and exhibits
a dimeric state of the protein at a concentration as low as 5 nM. *MtCM exhibits
simple Michaelis-Menten kinetics with a Km of 0.5 +/- 0.05 mM and a k(cat) of 60
s(-1) per active site (at 37 degrees C and pH 7.5). The crystal structure of
*MtCM has been determined at 1.7 A resolution (Protein Data Bank identifier
2F6L). The protein has an all alpha-helical structure, and the active site is
formed within a single chain without any contribution from the second chain in
the dimer. Analysis of the structure shows a novel fold topology for the protein
with a topologically rearranged helix containing Arg134. We provide evidence by
site-directed mutagenesis that the residues Arg49, Lys60, Arg72, Thr105, Glu109,
and Arg134 constitute the catalytic site; the numbering of the residues includes
the signal sequence. Our investigation on the effect of phenylalanine, tyrosine,
and tryptophan on *MtCM shows that *MtCM is not regulated by the aromatic amino
acids. Consistent with this observation, the X-ray structure of *MtCM does not
have an allosteric regulatory site.

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.
