Focusing on the alternansucrase (ASR) from Leuconostoc citreum NRRL B-1355, a well-known glucansucrase catalyzing the synthesis of both high-molar mass (HMM) and low-molar mass alternans, we searched for structural traits in ASR that could be involved in the control of alternan elongation. The resolution of five crystal structures of a truncated ASR version (ASRDelta2) in complex with different gluco-oligosaccharides pinpointed key residues in binding sites located in the A and V domains of ASR. Biochemical characterization of three single mutants and three double mutants, targeting the sugar-binding pockets identified in domain V, revealed an involvement of this domain in alternan binding and elongation. More strikingly, we found an oligosaccharide-binding site at the surface of domain A, distant from the catalytic site and not previously identified in other glucansucrases. We named this site surface binding site A1 (SBS-A1). Among the residues lining the SBS-A1 site, two (Gln-700 and Tyr-717) promoted alternan elongation. Their substitution to alanine decreased HMM alternan yield by a third, without significantly impacting enzyme stability or specificity. We propose that the SBS-A1 site is unique to alternansucrase and appears to be designed to bind alternating structures, acting as a mediator between the catalytic site and the sugar-binding pockets of domain V and contributing to a processive elongation of alternan chains. A specific oligosaccharide-binding site in alternansucrase catalytic domain mediates alternan elongation.,Molina M, Moulis C, Monties N, Guieysse D, Morel S, Cioci G, Remaud-Simeon M J Biol Chem. 2020 May 14. pii: RA120.013028. doi: 10.1074/jbc.RA120.013028.
