==Overview==
==Overview==
Bile salt hydrolase (BSH) is an enzyme produced by the intestinal, microflora that catalyzes the deconjugation of glycine- or taurine-linked, bile salts. The crystal structure of BSH reported here from, Bifidobacterium longum reveals that it is a member of N-terminal, nucleophil hydrolase structural superfamily possessing the characteristic, alphabetabetaalpha tetra-lamellar tertiary structure arrangement., Site-directed mutagenesis of the catalytic nucleophil residue, however, shows that it has no role in zymogen processing into its corresponding, active form. Substrate specificity was studied using Michaelis-Menten and, inhibition kinetics and fluorescence spectroscopy. These data were, compared with the specificity profile of BSH from Clostridium perfrigens, and pencillin V acylase from Bacillus sphaericus, for both of which the, three-dimensional structures are available. Comparative analysis shows a, gradation in activity toward common substrates, throwing light on a, possible common route toward the evolution of pencillin V acylase and BSH.
