Generally, a two-catalytic residue-mediated reaction exhibits a typical bell-shaped pH-activity curve. However, IGHase is found to display atypical non-bell-shaped pH-k(cat) and pH-k(cat)/K-m profiles, theoretically better-fitted to a three-catalytic residue-associated pH-activity curve. We determined the crystal structure of IGHase by the single-wavelength anomalous dispersion method using sulfur atoms and the cocrystal structure of a catalytic base mutant E335A with isomaltose. Although the activity of E335A was undetectable, the electron density observed in its active site pocket did not correspond to an isomaltose but a glycerol and a beta-glucose, cryoprotectant, and hydrolysis product. Our structural and biochemical analyses of several mutant enzymes suggest that Tyr48 acts as a second catalytic base catalyst. Y48F mutant displayed almost equivalent specific activity to a catalytic acid mutant E178A. Tyr48, highly conserved in all GH15 members, is fixed by another Tyr residue in many GH15 enzymes; the latter Tyr is replaced by Phe290 in IGHase. The pH profile of F290Y mutant changed to a bell-shaped curve, suggesting that Phe290 is a key residue distinguishing Tyr48 of IGHase from other GH15 members. Furthermore, F290Y is found to accelerate the condensation of isomaltose from glucose by modifying a hydrogen-bonding network between Tyr290-Tyr48-Glu335. The present study indicates that the atypical Phe290 makes Tyr48 of IGHase unique among GH15 enzymes.John Wiley & SonsJournal Articleapplication/pdfhttp://hdl.handle.net/2115/87814https://eprints.lib.hokudai.ac.jp/dspace/bitstream/2115/87814/1/FEBS%20J.%20289_1118.pdf1742-464XFEBS Journal2894111811342023-02-01enginfo:doi/10.1111/febs.16237This is the peer reviewed version of the following article: Tagami, T., Chen, M., Furunaga, Y., Kikuchi, A., Sadahiro, J., Lang, W., Okuyama, M., Tanaka, Y., Iwasaki, T., Yao, M. and Kimura, A.
