It is now known that its DNA genome encodes for nearly 1,000 proteins including enzymes that are required for the biosynthesis of the unusual sugar 4-amino-4,6-dideoxy-d-glucose, also known as d-viosamine. As observed in some bacteria, the pathway for the production of this sugar initiates with a nucleotide-linked sugar, which in the Mimivirus is thought to be UDP-d-glucose. The enzyme required for the installment of the amino group at the C-4' position of the pyranosyl moiety is encoded in the Mimivirus by the L136 gene. Here, we describe a structural and functional analysis of this pyridoxal 5'-phosphate-dependent enzyme, referred to as L136. For this analysis, three high-resolution X-ray structures were determined: the wildtype enzyme/pyridoxamine 5'-phosphate/dTDP complex and the site-directed mutant variant K185A in the presence of either UDP-4-amino-4,6-dideoxy-d-glucose or dTDP-4-amino-4,6-dideoxy-d-glucose. Additionally, the kinetic parameters of the enzyme utilizing either UDP-d-glucose or dTDP-d-glucose were measured and demonstrated that L136 is efficient with both substrates. This is in sharp contrast to the structurally related DesI from Streptomyces venezuelae, whose three-dimensional architecture was previously reported by this laboratory. As determined in this investigation, DesI shows a profound preference in its catalytic efficiency for the dTDP-linked sugar substrate. This difference can be explained in part by a hydrophobic patch in DesI that is missing in L136. Notably, the structure of L136 reported here represents the first three-dimensional model for a virally encoded PLP-dependent enzyme and thus provides new information on sugar aminotransferases in general.
