'''Crystal structure of E. coli YiiL protein containing L-rhamnose'''<br />


==Overview==
==Overview==
The crystal structure of Escherichia coli rhamnose mutarotase (YiiL) is, completely different from the previously reported structures of the, Lactococcus lactis galactose mutarotase and the Bacillus subtilis RbsD, (pyranase). YiiL exists as a locally asymmetric dimer, which is stabilized, by an intermolecular beta-sheet, various hydrophobic interactions, and a, cation-pi interaction with a salt-bridge. The protein folds of YiiL are, similar to those of a Streptomyces coelicolor mono-oxygenase and a, hypothetical Arabidopsis thaliana protein At3g17210. By assaying the, enzymatic activity of six active-site mutants and by comparing the crystal, structure-derived active site conformations of YiiL, RbsD, and a galactose, mutarotase, we were able to define the amino acid residues required for, catalysis and suggest a possible catalytic mechanism for YiiL. Although, the active-site amino acid residues of YiiL (His, Tyr, and Trp) differ, greatly from those of galactose mutarotase (His, Glu, and Asp), their, geometries, which determine the structures of the preferred monosaccharide, substrates, are conserved. In addition, the in vivo function of YiiL was, assessed by constructing a mutant E.coli strain that carries a yiiL, deletion. The presence of the yiiL gene is critical for efficient cell, growth only when concentrations of l-rhamnose are limited.
