hexamer | enzyme CcaA shows a wellpacked trimer-of-dimers organization. The proximal part of the characteristic C-terminal extension is ordered by binding at a site that passes through the two-fold symmetry axis shared with an adjacent dimer, as a result, only one of a pair of converging termini can be ordered at any given time. beta-CA structures are organized around a tight, catalytic dimer. The catalytic site of CcaA is located at the interface between two protomers, with the zinc ion bound to Cys39, His98, and Cys101. A water molecule forms the fourth zinc ligand at pH 4.5 | Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 / Kazusa |
More | CcmM is built as two distinct regions, the C-terminal region of CcmM consists of three to five repeats of a RubisCO small subunit-like domain, separated by flexible linker regions. This region binds RubisCO. The N-terminal domain is clearly homologous to gamma-CAs, but in at least some strains, including Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 and Synechococcus sp. PCC 7942, this domain lacks measurable CA activity. CcmM's N-terminal domain is trimeric. The C-terminal end of the eta-helix is dominated by the protruding alphaA helix and the alphaA-alphaB loop | Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 |

General Information | Comment | Organism |

additional information | CcaA is crystallized at pH 4.5 but remains in the active, type I conformation, which is typified by a salt bridge between Asp41 and Arg43 that allows the zinc ion to remain free for substrate binding. In addition, CcaA does not show the co-operative inactivation at low pH characteristic of the type II bacterial enzymes (see below), and the residues that form the non-catalytic (regulatory) bicarbonate-binding site (Arg-Trp-Tyr) are absent. CcaA is a structurally characterized bacterial beta-CA that displays type I active sites | Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 / Kazusa |

physiological function | CcaA is a beta-carbonic anhydrase that is a component of the carboxysomes of a subset of beta-cyanobacteria. It has a characteristic C-terminal extension and is recruited to the carboxysome via interactions with CcmM, UniProt ID P72758, which is itself a gamma-CA homologue with enzymatic activity in many, but not all cyanobacteria. Enzyme CcaA forms a complex with CcmM with sub-picomolar affinity, with contributions from residues in CcmM's alphaA helix and CcaA's C-terminal tail. Enzyme Cca shows low activity compared to other CAs, the C-terminal tail appears to partly inhibit activity, possibly indicating a role in minimizing the activity of unencapsulated enzyme. The need for the HCO3- entering the carboxysome to be efficiently converted into CO2 requires that carbonic anhydrase is co-encapsulated within the carboxysome. On the other hand, the presence of CA activity in the cytosol is highly deleterious as it converts the accumulated HCO3- into its membrane-permeable CO2 counterpart outside of the protective barrier afforded by the shell. Intracellular CAs in cyanobacteria are required to possess interaction determinants that target them to the carboxysome, as well as mechanisms that minimize CA activity prior to the completion of the shell. CcmM is the second potential beta-carboxysomal CA and is universally present in beta-carboxysomes as it functions as a central nexus for organizing the carboxysome's interior. Formation of the CcaA/CcmM complex probably requires significant backbone movements in at least one of the binding partners. CcaA is among the least active beta-CAs characterized to date, with activity comparable with the gamma-CA, CcmM | Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 / Kazusa |
