Publication Abstract from PubMedThe time-of-flight neutron Laue technique has been used to determine the location of hydrogen atoms in the enzyme d-xylose isomerase (XI). The neutron structure of crystalline XI with bound product, d-xylulose, shows, unexpectedly, that O5 of d-xylulose is not protonated but is hydrogen-bonded to doubly protonated His54. Also, Lys289, which is neutral in native XI, is protonated (positively charged), while the catalytic water in native XI has become activated to a hydroxyl anion which is in the proximity of C1 and C2, the molecular site of isomerization of xylose. These findings impact our understanding of the reaction mechanism.
