General Information | Comment | Organism |
---|---|---|
evolution | bile salt hydrolase (BSH), a member of cholylglycine hydrolase family, catalyzes the de-conjugation of bile acids and is evolutionarily related to penicillin V acylase (PVA) that hydrolyses a different substrate such as penicillin V. Enterococcus faecalis bile salt hydrolase (BSH) has a manifold higher hydrolase activity compared to other known BSHs and displays unique allosteric catalytic property. The structural analysis reveals a reduced secondary structure content compared to other known BSH structures, particularly devoid of an anti-parallel beta-sheet in the assembly loop and part of a beta-strand is converted to increase the length of a substrate binding loop 2. An evolution-mediated subordination of the pre-peptide excision site results in loss of pre-peptide in EfBSH and other related cholylglycine hydrolases | Enterococcus faecalis |
malfunction | two serine residues next to nucleophile cysteine are essential for autocalytic processing to remove precursor peptide, but since a pre-peptide is absent in EfBSH the mutation of these serines is tolerated | Enterococcus faecalis |
additional information | the structural analysis reveals a reduced secondary structure content compared to other known BSH structures, particularly devoid of an anti-parallel beta-sheet in the assembly loop and part of a beta-strand is converted to increase the length of a substrate binding loop 2. The substrate binding pocket shows reduced volume owing to altered loop conformations and increased hydrophobicity contributed by a higher ratio of hydrophobic to hydrophilic groups present. The aromatic residues F18, Y20 and F65 participate in substrate binding. Effective polar complementarity present for the three hydroxyl groups of glycocholic acid substrate in the binding site contributing to higher substrate specificity and efficient catalysis. These are unique features characteristics of this BSH enzyme and thought to contribute to its higher activity and specificity towards bile salts as well as allosteric effects.
