STRUCTURE OF [E271Q] LEUKOTRIENE A4 HYDROLASE
OverviewOverview
Leukotriene A(4) hydrolase/aminopeptidase is a bifunctional zinc, metalloenzyme that converts the fatty acid epoxide leukotriene A(4) into, leukotriene B(4), a potent chemoattractant and immune-modulating lipid, mediator. Recently, the structure of leukotriene A(4) hydrolase revealed, that Glu-271, which belongs to a conserved GXMEN motif in the M1 family of, zinc peptidases, and Gln-136 are located at the active site. Here we, report that mutagenetic replacements of Glu-271, but not Gln-136, abrogate, both catalytic activities of leukotriene A(4) hydrolase. Furthermore, the, 2.1 A crystal structure of [E271Q]leukotriene A(4) hydrolase revealed, minimal conformational changes that could not explain the loss of enzyme, function. We propose that the carboxylate of Glu-271 participates in an, acid-induced opening of the epoxide moiety of leukotriene A(4) and, formation of a carbocation intermediate. Moreover, Glu-271 appears to act, as an N-terminal recognition site and may potentially stabilize the, transition-state during turnover of peptides, a property that most likely, pertains to all members of the M1 family of zinc aminopeptidases. Hence, Glu-271 is a unique example of an amino acid, which has dual and separate, functions in two different catalytic reactions, involving lipid and, peptide substrates, respectively.
