Recently, a novel omegaTA with broad substrate specificity and high thermostability from the thermophilic bacterium Sphaerobacter thermophilus (St-omegaTA) has been reported. Although St-omegaTA has been biochemically characterized, little is known about its determinants of substrate specificity. In the present study, we determined the crystal structure of St-omegaTA at 1.9A resolution to clarify in detail its mechanism of substrate recognition. The structure of St-omegaTA revealed that it has a voluminous active site resulting from the unique spatial arrangement of residues comprising its active site. In addition, our molecular docking simulation results suggest that substrate compounds may bind to active site residues via electrostatic interactions or hydrophobic interactions that can be induced by subtle rearrangements of active site residues. On the basis of these structural analyses, we propose a plausible working model of the enzymatic mechanism of St-omegaTA. Our results provide profound structural insights into the substrate specificity of St-omegaTA and extend the boundaries of knowledge of TAs.
