Protein Variants

Protein Variants Comment Organism
H61A mutant enzyme H61A shows no dehydratase activity with 4a(R)-hydroxy-6(R)-methyltetrahydropterin. Mutant enzyme H79A shows no dehydratase activity with 4a(S)-hydroxy-6(R)-methyltetrahydropterin. The Km-value for 4a(S)-hydroxy-6(R)-methyltetrahydropterin is comparable to the Km-value of the wild type enzyme. The turnover number of the mutant enzyme H62A is 24% of that with the wild type enzyme for the 4a(R),6(S)-isomer and the 4a(S),6(R)-isomer Rattus norvegicus

Reaction

Reaction Comment Organism Reaction ID
4a-hydroxytetrahydrobiopterin = 6,7-dihydrobiopterin + H2O His61 and His79 act as acid catalysts for the stereospecific elimination of the 4a(R)- and 4a(S)-hydroxyl groups, respectively. The role of His62 is primarily binding substrate with additional component of base catalysis Rattus norvegicus
