Catalyzes the conversion of 6-deoxy-6-sulfo-D-fructose (SF) and glyceraldehyde 3-phosphate (GAP) into fructose-6-phosphate (F6P) and 3-sulfolactaldehyde (SLA) (PubMed:33036753, PubMed:36805128). Can also catalyze the SF-cleavage with erythrose 4-phosphate (E4P) as acceptor, forming 3-sulfolactaldehyde (SLA) and sedoheptulose 7-phosphate (S7P) (PubMed:36805128). Publication Abstract from PubMed Sulfoquinovose (SQ) is a key component of plant sulfolipids (sulfoquinovosyl diacylglycerols) and a major environmental reservoir of biological sulfur. Breakdown of SQ is achieved by bacteria through the pathways of sulfoglycolysis. The sulfoglycolytic sulfofructose transaldolase (sulfo-SFT) pathway is used by gut-resident firmicutes and soil saprophytes. After isomerization of SQ to sulfofructose (SF), the namesake enzyme catalyzes the transaldol reaction of SF transferring dihydroxyacetone to 3C/4C acceptors to give sulfolactaldehyde and fructose-6-phosphate or sedoheptulose-7-phosphate. We report the 3D cryo-EM structure of SF transaldolase from Bacillus megaterium in apo and ligand bound forms, revealing a decameric structure formed from two pentameric rings of the protomer. We demonstrate a covalent "Schiff base" intermediate formed by reaction of SF with Lys89 within a conserved Asp-Lys-Glu catalytic triad and defined by an Arg-Trp-Arg sulfonate recognition triad. The structural characterization of the signature enzyme of the sulfo-SFT pathway provides key insights into molecular recognition of the sulfonate group of sulfosugars.
