H141C mutant of rat liver arginase IH141C mutant of rat liver arginase I
Structural highlights
Evolutionary Conservation Check, as determined by ConSurfDB. You may read the explanation of the method and the full data available from ConSurf. Publication Abstract from PubMedRat liver arginase (arginase I) is potently inactivated by diethyl pyrocarbonate, with a second-order rate constant of 113M(-1)s(-1) for the inactivation process at pH 7.0, 25 degrees C. Partial protection from inactivation is provided by the product of the reaction, l-ornithine, while nearly complete protection is afforded by the inhibitor pair, l-ornithine and borate. The role of H141 has been probed by mutagenesis, chemical modulation, and X-ray diffraction. The hyper-reactivity of H141 towards diethyl pyrocarbonate can be explained by its proximity to E277. A proton shuttling role for H141 is supported by its conformational mobility observed among the known arginase structures. H141 is proposed to serve as an acid/base catalyst, deprotonating the metal-bridging water molecule to generate the metal-bridging hydroxide nucleophile, and by protonating the amino group of the product to facilitate its departure. Probing the role of the hyper-reactive histidine residue of arginase.,Colleluori DM, Reczkowski RS, Emig FA, Cama E, Cox JD, Scolnick LR, Compher K, Jude K, Han S, Viola RE, Christianson DW, Ash DE Arch Biochem Biophys. 2005 Dec 1;444(1):15-26.
