Abstract
|
 |
|
BACKGROUND: Glutamate mutase (Glm) equilibrates (S)-glutamate with
(2S,3S)-3-methylaspartate. Catalysis proceeds with the homolytic cleavage of the
organometallic bond of the cofactor to yield a 5'-desoxyadenosyl radical. This
radical then abstracts a hydrogen atom from the protein-bound substrate to
initiate the rearrangement reaction. Glm from Clostridium cochlearium is a
heterotetrameric molecule consisting of two sigma and two epsilon polypeptide
chains. RESULTS: We have determined the crystal structures of inactive
recombinant Glm reconstituted with either cyanocobalamin or methylcobalamin. The
molecule shows close similarity to the structure of methylmalonyl CoA mutase
(MCM), despite poor sequence similarity between its catalytic epsilon subunit
and the corresponding TIM-barrel domain of MCM. Each of the two independent B12
cofactor molecules is associated with a substrate-binding site, which was found
to be occupied by a (2S,3S)-tartrate ion. A 1:1 mixture of cofactors with cobalt
in oxidation states II and III was observed in both crystal structures of
inactive Glm. CONCLUSIONS: The long axial cobalt-nitrogen bond first observed in
the structure of MCM appears to result from a contribution of the species
without upper ligand. The tight binding of the tartrate ion conforms to the
requirements of tight control of the reactive intermediates and suggests how the
enzyme might use the substrate-binding energy to initiate cleavage of the
cobalt-carbon bond. The cofactor does not appear to have a participating role
during the radical rearrangement reaction.
