Figure 5. A schematic diagram showing the mechanism of
N-glycoside bond hydrolysis catalyzed by αMMC. Hydrogen bonding
at N3 and N1 by Arg163 and Ile71, respectively, facilitates the
cleavage of the glycoside bond (N9–C1′ ) and leads to the
formation of a transition state with oxycarbonium ion
development on the ribose. The oxycarbonium ion is then
stabilized by the negative charge of Glu160. The adenine ring
rotates by about 15° to the position found in the
adenine-bound structures to give enough space for the
OH^−of the nucleophile to bond to C1′. Meanwhile, movement
and conformational change of the ribose may occur because of the
release of the straining force after the N9–C1′ bond is
broken. A water molecule, OH0 or OH2, attacks the oxycarbonium
ion at C1′ and the proton is transferred to N9. Figure 5. A
