Background: An array of glycoside hydrolases with multiple substrate specificities are required to digest plant cell wall polysaccharides. Cel5E from Clostridium thermocellum and Cel5A from Thermotoga maritima are two glycoside hydrolase family 5 (GH5) enzymes with high sequence and structural similarity, but notably possess different substrate specificities; the former is a bifunctional cellulase/xylanase and the latter is a cellulase/mannanase. A specific loop in TmCel5A, Tmloop, is one of the most structurally divergent regions compared to CtCel5E and interacts with substrates, suggesting the importance for mannan recognition.
Method: A Tmloop inserted CtCel5E and its related mutants were produced to investigate the role of Tmloop in catalysis. Crystal structure of CtCel5E-TmloopF267A followed by site-direct mutagenesis reveals the mechanism. RtCelB, a homolog with Tmloop was identified to have mannanase activity.
Result: Tmloop incorporation enables CtCel5E to gain mannanase activity. Tyr270, His277, and Trp282 in the Tmloop are indispensable for CtCel5E-Tmloop catalysis, and weakening hydrophobic environment near the Tmloop enhances enzyme k. Using our newly identified loop motif to search for structurally conserved homologs in other subfamilies of GH5, we identified RtCelB. This homolog, originally annotated as a cellulase also possesses mannanase and xylanase activities.
Conclusion: Our studies show that Tmloop enhances GH5 enzyme promiscuity and plays a role in catalysis.
General Significance: The study identified a loop of GH5 for mannan recognition and catalysis. Weakening the hydrophobic environment near the loop can also enhance the enzyme catalytic rate. Our findings provide a new insight on mannan recognition and activity enhancement of GH5.
