Ligand specificities

In 1994 the first CBM32 structure and canonical ligand specificity for D-galactose were determined from a fungal galactose oxidase[1]

Following that, the structure and galactose binding specificity of a CBM32 was described for a multi-modular sialidase produced by Micromonospora viridifaciens[2].

A CBM32 from a Cellvibrio mixtus family 16 glycoside hydrolase binds laminarin and pustulan [3]

A CBM32 from a Clostridium thermocellum mannanase has demonstrated binding on the non-reducing end of β-mannans and β-1,4-linked mannooligosaccharides[4]

A periplasmic CBM32 from Yersinia enterolitica binds polygalaturonic acid components of pectin [5].

The Clostridium perfringens CBM32s have been well studied and many of their ligand specificities determined as follows: D-galactose, N-acetyl-D-galactosamine[6, 7, 8], D-galactose-β-1,4-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine (LacNAc), L-fucose-α-1,2-D-galactose-β-1,4-N-acetyl-D-glucosamine (type II blood group H-trisaccharide) [8] N-acetyl-D-glucosamine, N-acetyl-D-glucosamine-β-1,3-N-acetyl-D-galactosamine, N-acetyl-D-glucosamine-β-1,2-D-mannose, N-acetyl-D-glucosamine-β-1,3-D-mannose (non-biological) [9], N-acetyl-D-glucosamine-α-1,4-D-galactose[7]

Some members of the family 32 CBMs have demonstrated a degree of promiscuity in their binding, these include CpCBM32-2 from the NagH enzyme and CpCBM32C from the NagJ enzyme, both produced by Clostridium perfringens[8, 9].

Please see these references for an essential introduction to the CAZy classification system: [10, 11]. CBMs, in particular, have been extensively reviewed [12, 13, 14, 15].

Structural Features

Content in this section should include, in paragraph form, a description of:

• Fold: beta sandwich
• Type: Type C and properties
• Features of ligand binding: Describe CBM binding pocket location (Side or apex) important residues for binding (W, Y, F, subsites), interact with reducing end, non-reducing end, planar surface or within polysaccharide chains. Include examples pdb codes. Metal ion dependent. Etc.

Functionalities

Content in this section should include, in paragraph form, a description of:

• Functional role of CBM: Describe common functional roles such as targeting, disruptive, anchoring, proximity/position on substrate.
• Most Common Associated Modules: 1. Glycoside Hydrolase Activity; 2. Additional Associated Modules (other CBM, FNIII, cohesin, dockerins, expansins, etc.) CBM32s are often but not always appended to carbohydrate active enzymes. There are now examples of CBM32s that are independant of a catalytic module. In enteric bacteria the CBM32 may occur more than once in the same enzyme and they may or may not share the same ligand specifities.
• Novel Applications: Include here if CBM has been used to modify another enzyme, or if a CBM was used to label plant/mammalian tissues? Etc.
