Overview

Direct metal ligands to transition metals in metalloproteins exert a, profound effect on protein-metal affinity and function. Indirect ligands, i.e., second-shell residues that hydrogen bond to direct metal ligands, typically exert more subtle effects on the chemical properties of the, protein-metal complex. However, E117 of human carbonic anhydrase II, (CAII), which is part of the E117-119-Zn(2+) triad, is a notable, exception: E117-substituted CAIIs exhibit dramatically increased kinetics, of zinc complexation, and the E117Q variant exhibits enormously diminished, catalytic activity and sulfonamide affinity. The three-dimensional, structures of zinc-bound and zinc-free E117Q CAII reveal no discrete, structural changes in the active site that are responsible for enhanced, zinc ... [(full description)]
