1,2-propanediol Dehydration in Roseburia inulinivorans; Structural Basis for Substrate and Enantiomer Selectivity

Structural highlights
FunctionPublication Abstract from PubMedGlycyl radical enzymes (GREs) represent a diverse superfamily of enzymes that utilize a radical mechanism to catalyze difficult, but often essential, chemical reactions. In this work, we present the first biochemical and structural data for a GRE-type diol dehydratase from the organism Roseburia inulinivorans (RiDD). Despite high sequence (48% identity) and structural similarity to the GRE-type glycerol dehydratase from Clostridium butyricum (CbGD), we demonstrate that the RiDD is in fact a diol dehydratase. In addition, the RiDD will utilize both (S)-1,2-propanediol and (R)-1,2-propanediol as a substrate, with an observed preference for the (S) enantiomer. Based on the new structural information we develop and successfully test a hypothesis that explains the functional differences we observe. 1,2-propanediol Dehydration in Roseburia inulinivorans; Structural Basis for Substrate and Enantiomer Selectivity.,LaMattina JW, Keul ND, Reitzer P, Kapoor S, Galzerani F, Koch DJ, Gouvea IE, Lanzilotta WN J Biol Chem. 2016 Jun 1. pii: jbc.M116.721142.
