Abstract
|
 |
|
Crystal structures of haloalkane dehalogenase were determined in the presence of
the substrate 1,2-dichloroethane. At pH 5 and 4 degrees C, substrate is bound in
the active site without being converted; warming to room temperature causes the
substrate's carbon-chlorine bond to be broken, producing a chloride ion with
concomitant alkylation of the active-site residue Asp124. At pH 6 and room
temperature the alkylated enzyme is hydrolysed by a water molecule activated by
the His289-Asp260 pair in the active site. These results show that catalysis by
the dehalogenase proceeds by a two-step mechanism involving an ester
intermediate covalently bound at Asp124.
