Substrate specificities
Content is to be added here
Authors may get an idea of what to put in each field from Curator Approved Glycosyltransferase Families. (TIP: Right click with your mouse and open this link in a new browser window...)
In the meantime, please see these references for an essential introduction to the CAZy classification system: [1, 2].
Kinetics and Mechanism
Content is to be added here.
Catalytic Residues
The large majority of GT1 presents a His-Asp catalytic dyad, acting as a general base. The histidine abstract a proton, increasing the nucleophilicity of the glycosyl acceptor. The aspartate activates the histidine, the abstracted proton being shared almost equally between these two residues.
Three-dimensional structures
From 2021 to July 2024, experimental structures of 75 different GT1 enzymes have been deposited, including with donors and acceptors. GT1 present a GT-B fold [3], characterized by two Rossman domains. The N-terminal domain binds the glycosyl acceptor site (+1), and the C-terminal one (-1) binds the glycosyl donor, usually a UDP alpha glycosyl.
Family Firsts
First 3D structure, GtfB (Amycolatopsis orientalis) PDB ID 1IIR in 2001 [4].
