The deamination process of isoxanthopterin catalyzed by isoxanthopterin deaminase was determined using the combined QM(PM3)/MM molecular dynamics simulations. In this paper, the updated PM3 parameters were employed for zinc ions and the initial model was built up based on the crystal structure. Proton transfer and following steps have been investigated in two paths: Asp336 and His285 serve as the proton shuttle, respectively. Our simulations showed that His285 is more effective than Aap336 in proton transfer for deamination of isoxanthopterin. As hydrogen bonds between the substrate and surrounding residues play a key role in nucleophilic attack, we suggested mutating Thr195 to glutamic acid, which could enhance the hydrogen bonds and help isoxanthopterin get close to the active site. The simulations which change the substrate to pterin 6-carboxylate also performed for comparison. Our results provide reference for understanding of the mechanism of deaminase and for enhancing the deamination rate of isoxanthopterin deaminase.

Asp-208 of Streptomyces glaucescens tyrosinase (an invariant residue in the CuB-binding region of tyrosinases and haemocyanins) was conservatively substituted by glutamic acid. Although having little effect on spectroscopic or kinetic properties of the enzyme, the mutation greatly decreased the lability of Cu-bound O2. A rationalization for these results is given, based on the crystal structure of Panuliris interruptus haemocyanin in the conserved CuB-binding region.

The crystal structure of Cel44A, which is one of the enzymatic components of the cellulosome of Clostridium thermocellum, was solved at a resolution of 0.96Å. This enzyme belongs to glycoside hydrolase family (GH family) 44. The structure reveals that Cel44A consists of a TIM-like barrel domain and a β-sandwich domain. The wild-type and the E186Q mutant structures complexed with substrates suggest that two glutamic acid residues, Glu186 and Glu359, are the active residues of the enzyme. Biochemical experiments were performed to confirm this idea. The structural features indicate that GH family 44 belongs to clan GH-A and that the reaction catalyzed by Cel44A is retaining type hydrolysis. The stereochemical course of hydrolysis was confirmed by a 1H NMR experiment using the reduced cellooligosaccharide as a substrate.
