ABSTRACT
|
|
|
| |
|
An antifungal chitosanase/glucanase isolated from the soil
bacteriumPaenibacillussp. IK-5 has two CBM32 chitosan-binding modules (DD1 and
DD2) linked in tandem at the C-terminus. In order to obtain insights into the
mechanism of chitosan recognition, the structures of DD1 and DD2 were solved by
NMR spectroscopy and crystallography. DD1 and DD2 both adopted a β-sandwich
fold with several loops in solution as well as in crystals. On the basis of
chemical shift perturbations in(1)H-(15)N-HSQC resonances, the chitosan tetramer
(GlcN)4was found to bind to the loop region extruded from the core β-sandwich
of DD1 and DD2. The binding site defined by NMR in solution was consistent with
the crystal structure of DD2 in complex with (GlcN)3, in which the bound
(GlcN)3stood upright on its non-reducing end at the binding site. Glu(14)of DD2
appeared to make an electrostatic interaction with the amino group of the
non-reducing end GlcN, and Arg(31), Tyr(36)and Glu(61)formed several hydrogen
bonds predominantly with the non-reducing end GlcN. No interaction was detected
with the reducing end GlcN. Since Tyr(36)of DD2 is replaced by glutamic acid in
DD1, the mutation of Tyr(36)to glutamic acid was conducted in DD2 (DD2-Y36E),
and the reverse mutation was conducted in DD1 (DD1-E36Y). Ligand-binding
experiments using the mutant proteins revealed that this substitution of the
36th amino acid differentiates the binding properties of DD1 and DD2, probably
enhancing total affinity of the chitosanase/glucanase toward the fungal cell
wall.
