THREE-DIMENSIONAL STRUCTURE OF LIGAB
OverviewOverview
BACKGROUND: Sphingomonas paucimobilis SYK-6 utilizes an extradiol-type, catecholic dioxygenase, the LigAB enzyme (a protocatechuate, 4,5-dioxygenase), to oxidize protocatechuate (or 3,4-dihydroxybenzoic, acid, PCA). The enzyme belongs to the family of class III extradiol-type, catecholic dioxygenases catalyzing the ring-opening reaction of, protocatechuate and related compounds. The primary structure of LigAB, suggests that the enzyme has no evolutionary relationship with the family, of class II extradiol-type catecholic dioxygenases. Both the class II and, class III enzymes utilize a non-heme ferrous center for adding dioxygen to, the substrate. By elucidating the structure of LigAB, we aimed to provide, a structural basis for discussing the function of class III enzymes., RESULTS: The ... [(full description)]
