D149N mutant also shows drastically decreased activity against the wild-type enzyme. Although the D149N mutation significantly diminished enzymatic activity, a clear proton relay pathway directed toward the anomeric carbon at the cleavage site could not be definitively traced based on the current structural data.

Substrate specificities

PgSGL1(H744_1c0224, KEGG) and PgSGL2(H744_2c1936, KEGG) from Photobacterium gaetbulicola and EeSGL1(A0A081KBI6, Uniprot) from Endozoicomonas elysicola are characterized. The three enzymes are specific to β-1,2-glucan among polysaccharides. They hydrolyze β-1,2-glucan endolytically to produce β-1,2-glucooligosaccharides [1].


Kinetics and Mechanism

PgSGL1 follows anomer-inverting mechanism, which is determined by measuring change of optical rotation during hydrolysis of β-1,2-glucan [1].

Catalytic Residues

E221(EeSGL1) is the putative general acid as this residue is structurally well-superimposed with the general acid (E262) in GH162 β-1,2-glucanase from Talaromyces funiculosus [2]. E221Q mutant shows drastic decrease in catalytic activity compared to the wild-type enzyme [1]. E221 is also conserved across other GH-S clan families including GH144, GH193, and GH194.
Similarly, D149(EeSGL1) is a spatially conserved residue shared with several β-1,2-glucanases; GH144 (from Chitinophaga pinensis and Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris) GH193 (from Sanguibacter keddieii), and GH194 (from P. gaetbulicala) [1, 3]. D149N mutant also shows drastically decreased activity against the wild-type enzyme. Although the D149N mutation significantly diminished enzymatic activity, no complex structure with a substrate is available.

Three-dimensional structures

A ligand-free structure of EeSGL1 is available [1].
