The tricarballylic acid (TCA) units of fumonisin B(1) (FB(1); accounting for 70 % of fumonisin contamination) can be removed by fumonisin B(1) esterase (FE, EC 3.1.1.87) providing a biotechnological FB(1) detoxification possibility. Here, we report the regioselective cleavage of the TCA ester at C6 in the first step of FB(1) hydrolysis and kinetic characterization for two FEs. The low K(M) values (4.76-44.3 muM) are comparable to concentrations of environmental contaminations, and the high catalytic efficiencies are promising for practical applications. The X-ray structure of one of the FEs enabled the understanding of the FB(1) hydrolysis at molecular level and revealed an arginine pocket key for substrate binding, and the catalytic role of the glutamate preceding the catalytic serine. Computations showed that this FE is likely capable of detoxifying any fumonisin indicating its potential applicability in food and feed products.
