Catalyzes the thiamine diphosphate (ThDP) dependent condensation of D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (D-G3P) with L-arginine to yield the beta-amino acid, N2-(2-carboxyethyl)arginine (CEA) via a beta-elimination resulting in the formation of an enol which undergoes a second elimination to generate the alpha,beta-unsaturated acryloyl-ThDP.

Publication Abstract from PubMed N(2)-(2-Carboxyethyl)arginine synthase (CEAS), an unusual thiamin diphosphate (ThDP)-dependent enzyme, catalyses the committed step in the biosynthesis of the b-lactamase inhibitor clavulanic acid in Streptomyces clavuligerus. Crystal structures of tetrameric CEAS-ThDP in complex with the substrate analogues 5-guanidinovaleric acid (GVA) and tartrate, and a structure reflecting a possible enol(ate)-ThDP reaction intermediate are described. The structures suggest overlapping binding sites for the substrates D-glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate (D-G3P) and L-arginine, and are consistent with the proposed CEAS mechanism in which D-G3P binds at the active site and reacts to form an alpha,beta-unsaturated intermediate,which subsequently undergoes (1,4)-Michael addition with the alpha-amino group of L-arginine. Additional solution studies are presented which probe the amino acid substrate tolerance of CEAS, providing further insight into the L-arginine binding site. These findings may facilitate the engineering of CEAS towards the synthesis of alternative beta-amino acid products.
