Publication Abstract from PubMedThe disulfide-bond isomerase DsbC plays a crucial role in the folding of bacterial proteins in the periplasmic space. DsbC has a V-shaped dimeric structure with two domains, and Cys98 in the C-terminal domain attacks inappropriate disulfide bonds in substrate proteins due to its high nucleophilic activity. In this article, we present the crystal structure of DsbC from Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium. We evaluated the conserved residues Asp95 and Arg125, which are located close to Cys98. The mutation of Asp95 or Arg125 abolished the disulfide isomerase activity of DsbC in an in vitro assay using a protein substrate, and the R125A mutation significantly reduced the chaperone activity for the substrate RNase I in vivo. Furthermore, a comparative analysis suggested that the conformation of Arg125 varies depending on the packing or protein-protein interactions. Based on these findings, we suggest that Asp95 and Arg125 modulate the pKa of Cys98 during catalysis.
