Fructuronate-tagaturonate epimerase
StructureStructure
The structure comprises 490 amino acids, a metal ion and a phosphate ion. Each protomer consisted of four do mains: core domain (CD), extra domain 1(ED1), extra domain 2 (ED2), and extra domain 3 (ED3). CD had a canonical TIM-barrel or (βα)8-barrel scaffold, comprising an interior of eight par allel β-strands in a barrel structure, surrounded by eight exterior α helices. ED1 showed a Rossmann-like α/β/α sandwich fold with three α-helices and five β-strands; ED2, an α + β protein fold with four α-helices and two β-strands; ED3, an all-α protein fold with seven α-helices. ED1 and ED2 were parallel to the TIM-barrel structure on each side, while ED3 lay on top of CD, resembling a cap . A metal ion, at the top central position of the TIM-barrel structure, was bound with the metal-coordination loop in the interface between CD and ED2 and a phosphate ion was covalently bound to Ser345 in the interface between CD and ED3. The zinc metal is essential to convert the substrate. FunctionEpimerases and racemases are isomerase enzymes that catalyze the inversion of stereochemistry in biological molecules. Epimerases catalyze the stereochemical inversion of the configuration about an asymmetric carbon atom in a substrate having more than one center of asymmetry, thus interconverting epimers. One classical exemple of Epimerase is UDP-galactose_4-epimerase, which is used in the final step of galactose metabolism - catalyzing the reversible conversion of UDP-galactose to UDP-glucose.
