== Function ==
[https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/NSAR_AMYSP NSAR_AMYSP] Acts as a N-succinylamino acid racemase (NSAR) that catalyzes the racemization of N-succinyl-phenylglycine and N-succinyl-methionine (PubMed:14705949, PubMed:24955846). Can catalyze the racemization of a broad range of N-acylamino acids, including N-acetyl-D/L-methionine, N-propionyl-D/L-methionine, N-butyryl-D/L-methionine and N-chloroacetyl-L-valine (PubMed:7766084, PubMed:10194342, PubMed:14705949, PubMed:23130969). Also converts 2-succinyl-6-hydroxy-2,4-cyclohexadiene-1-carboxylate (SHCHC) to 2-succinylbenzoate (OSB) (PubMed:10194342, PubMed:14705949, PubMed:24955846). Catalyzes both N-succinylamino acid racemization and OSB synthesis at equivalent rates (PubMed:14705949, PubMed:24955846). NSAR is probably the biological function of this enzyme (Probable).<ref>PMID:10194342</ref> <ref>PMID:14705949</ref> <ref>PMID:23130969</ref> <ref>PMID:24955846</ref> <ref>PMID:7766084</ref> <ref>PMID:16740275</ref> <ref>PMID:24955846</ref>

== Publication Abstract from PubMed ==
Divergent evolution of enzyme function is commonly explained by a gene duplication event followed by mutational changes that allow the protein encoded by the copy to acquire a new function. An alternate hypothesis is that this process is facilitated when the progenitor enzyme acquires a second function while maintaining the original activity. This phenomenon has been suggested to occur in the o-succinylbenzoate synthase (OSBS) from a species of Amycolatopsis that catalyzes not only the physiological syn-dehydration reaction of 2-succinyl-6-hydroxy-2,4-cyclohexadiene-1-carboxylate but also an accidental racemization of N-acylamino acids [Palmer, D. R., Garrett, J. B., Sharma, V., Meganathan, R., Babbitt, P. C., and Gerlt, J. A. (1999) Biochemistry 38, 4252-4258]. To understand the molecular basis of this promiscuity, three-dimensional structures of liganded complexes of this enzyme have been determined, including the product of the OSBS reaction and three N-acylamino acid substrates for the N-acylamino acid racemase (NAAAR) reaction, N-acetylmethionine, N-succinylmethionine, and N-succinylphenylglycine, to 2.2, 2.3, 2.1, and 1.9 A resolution, respectively. These structures show how the active-site cavity can accommodate both the hydrophobic substrate for the OSBS reaction and the substrates for the accidental NAAAR reaction. As expected, the N-acylamino acid is sandwiched between lysines 163 and 263, which function as the catalytic bases for the abstraction of the alpha-proton in the (R)- and (S)-racemization reactions, respectively [Taylor Ringia, E. A., Garrett, J. B, Thoden, J. B., Holden, H. M., Rayment, I., and Gerlt, J. A. (2004) Biochemistry 42, 224-229]. Importantly, the protein forms specific favorable interactions with the hydrophobic amino acid side chain, alpha-carbon, carboxylate, and the polar components of the N-acyl linkage. Accommodation of the components of the N-acyl linkage appears to be the reason that this enzyme is capable of a racemization reaction on these substrates, whereas the orthologous OSBS from Escherichia coli lacks this functionality.
