ASP260ALA ESCHERICHIA COLI AMINOPEPTIDASE P
OverviewOverview
Aminopeptidase P (APPro) is a manganese-dependent enzyme that cleaves the, N-terminal amino acid from polypeptides where the second residue is, proline. APPro shares a similar fold, substrate specificity, and catalytic, mechanism with methionine aminopeptidase and prolidase. To investigate the, roles of conserved residues at the active site, seven mutant forms of, APPro were characterized kinetically and structurally. Mutation of, individual metal ligands selectively abolished binding of either or both, Mn(II) atoms at the active site, and none of these metal-ligand mutants, had detectable catalytic activity. Mutation of the conserved active site, residues His243 and His361 revealed that both are required for catalysis., We propose that His243 stabilizes substrate binding through an ...
