Crystal structure of exo-1,3-beta glucanse from Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Structural highlights
FunctionEXG1_YEAST Glucanases possibly play a role in cell expansion during growth, in cell-cell fusion during mating, and in spore release during sporulation. This enzyme hydrolyzes both 1,3-beta- and 1,6-beta-linkages and even has beta-glucosidase activity. It could also function biosynthetically as a transglycosylase.

Publication Abstract from PubMedWe present in vitro data that explain the recognition mechanism of misfolded glycoproteins by UDP-glucose glycoprotein-glucosyltransferase (UGGT). The glycoprotein exo-(1,3)-beta-glucanase (beta-Glc) bearing two glycans unfolds in a pH-dependent manner to become a misfolded substrate for UGGT. In the crystal structure of this glycoprotein, the local hydrophobicity surrounding each glycosylation site coincides with the differential recognition of N-linked glycans by UGGT. We introduced a single F280S point mutation, producing a beta-Glc protein with full enzymatic activity that was both recognized as misfolded and monoglucosylated by UGGT. Contrary to current views, these data show that UGGT can modify N-linked glycans positioned at least 40 A from localized regions of disorder and sense subtle conformational changes within structurally compact, enzymatically active glycoprotein substrates. The ER protein folding sensor UDP-glucose glycoprotein-glucosyltransferase modifies substrates distant to local changes in glycoprotein conformation.,Taylor SC, Ferguson AD, Bergeron JJ, Thomas DY Nat Struct Mol Biol. 2004 Feb;11(2):128-34.
