=== Catalytic Triad ===
=== Catalytic Triad ===
LCC catalyzes the breakdown of PET using a classic serine hydrolase mechanism involving a <scene name='10/1075247/Catalytic_triad3_w_label/2'>Catalytic Triad</scene> of Ser165, His242, and Asp210. The reaction begins when His242 deprotonates Ser165, which activates it as a nucleophile. Ser165 then attacks the carbonyl carbon of an ester bond in the PET polymer. This forms a tetrahedral intermediate. This intermediate is stabilized by an oxyanion hole. The oxyanion hole is formed by the backbone amides of Met166 and Tyr95. The intermediate collapses; one product is released and an acyl-enzyme intermediate is formed. A water molecule, activated by His242, then attacks the acyl-enzyme, releasing the second product and resetting the enzyme’s active site.
