1.1.1.B20 evolution Bdh enzymes can be classified into R-acting or S-acting depending on the chirality of the chiral center introduced by the enzyme at the acetoin C2 atom. Whereas the preference for (3R)-acetoin or (3S)-acetoin is imprinted in the geometry of the substrate-binding pocket, R-acting and S-acting Bdh enzymes belong to different protein families and possess different architectures -, 760761 1.1.1.B20 evolution enzyme BDH belongs to the SDR family, of enzymes 741710 1.1.1.B20 evolution enzyme BtBDH contains a GroES-like domain at the N terminus and a NAD(P)-binding domain at the C-terminus. Phylogenetic tree analysis reveals that BtBDH is a member ofthe (2R,3R)-2,3-BDH group. BtBDH has the typical (2R,3R)-2,3-butanediol dehydrogenase properties and belongs to the MDR superfamily. According to previous reports, (2R,3R)-2,3-BDH generally belongs to the MDR family, while meso-2,3-BDH is commonly clustered in the SDR (short chain dehydrogenase/reductase) family -, 760463 1.1.1.B20 evolution phylogenetic analysis 702809 1.1.1.B20 evolution the enzyme belongs to the NADH-dependent metal-independent short-chain dehydrogenases/reductase (SDR) family of oxidoreductases -, 760817 1.1.1.B20 evolution the enzyme belongs to the short chain dehydrogenase/reductase family -, 721906 1.1.1.B20 evolution the enzyme belongs to the short-chain dehydrogenases/reductases 761081 1.1.1.B20 evolution the enzyme belongs to the shortchain dehydrogenase/reductase superfamily -, 721397 1.1.1.B20 malfunction deletion of bdhA gene successfully blocks the reversible transformation between acetoin and 2,3-butanediol and eliminates the effect of dissolved oxygen on the transformation -, 762259 1.1.1.B20 malfunction deletion of budC causes redox imbalance towards NADH -, 761003 1.1.1.B20 malfunction extending the alpha6 helix of SmBdh to mimic the lower activity Enterobacter cloacae enzyme EcBdh results in reduction of SmBdh function to nearly 3% of the total activity. In great contrast, reduction of the corresponding alpha6 helix of the EcBdh to mimic the SmBdh structure results in about 70% increase in its activity -, 760761 1.1.1.B20 malfunction the amount of meso-2,3-BD is highly reduced in a DELTAacoR mutant lacking the regulatory protein AcoR. The loss of locus pa4153, encoding (2R,3R)-2,3-BDH, has no effect on the ability of this strain to grow in (2S,3S)-2,3-BD but completely impairs its ability to utilize (2R,3R)-2,3-BD and meso-2,3-BD. The complementation of the pa4153 mutant strain with its gene successfully restores the growth ability. The DELTApa4153 PAO1 strain can grow in racemic acetoin, indicating that (2R,3R)-2,3-BDH contributes to 2,3-BD utilization by converting 2,3-BD into acetoin -, 756608 1.1.1.B20 malfunction the budC knockout strain produces only the D-2,3-butanediol isomer with high yield and productivity. Deletion of budC gene causes a slight decrease (about 5-10%) in cell growth -, 742152 1.1.1.B20 malfunction the growth of Bacillus licheniformis mutant strain MW3 (DELTAbudCDELTAgdh) is slightly lower than that of Bacillus licheniformis wild-type strain MW3, but the mutant strain can produce acetoin instead of 2,3-butanediol as its major product -, 761121 1.1.1.B20 metabolism 2,3-butanediol (2,3-BD) exists in three stereoisomeric forms: (2R,3R)-2,3-BD, meso-2,3-BD and (2S,3S)-2,3-BD. All three stereoisomers are transformed into acetoin by (2R,3R)-2,3-butanediol dehydrogenase (BDH) or (2S,3S)-2,3-BDH. Acetoin is cleaved to form acetyl-CoA and acetaldehyde by acetoin dehydrogenase enzyme system (AoDH ES). Genes encoding (2R,3R)-2,3-BDH, (2S,3S)-2,3-BDH and the E1 and E2 components of AoDH ES are identified as part of a 2,3-BD utilization operon. In addition, the regulatory protein AcoR promotes the expression of this operon using acetaldehyde, a cleavage product of acetoin, as its direct effector. Proposed model for 2,3-BD utilization in Pseudomonas aeruginosa strain PAO1 in downstream catabolic pathways, overview.

The substrate-binding pocket is formed by two protein molecules, not a single peptide as found in all other reported Bdh enzymes. The C-terminus of molecule A protrudes into the groove between alpha7 helix and the alpha-turn alphat1 capping substrate-binding pocket of molecule Asymm and vice versa. The SmBdh active site is populated by a Gln247 residue contributed by the diagonally opposite subunit. The enzyme protein also contains a short alpha6 helix, which provides more efficient entry and exit of molecules from the active site, thereby contributing to enhanced substrate turnover. While coordinated active site formation is a unique structural characteristic of this tetrameric complex, the smaller alpha6 helix and extended hydrogen network contribute towards improved activity and substrate promiscuity of the enzyme.

The enzyme is bifunctional as R,R-2,3-butanediol dehydrogenase/meso-2,3-butanediol dehydrogenase/diacetyl reductase -, 760411 1.1.1.B20 physiological function the meso-2,3-butanediol dehydrogenase (meso-2,3-BDH) catalyzes NAD+-dependent conversion of meso-2,3-butanediol to acetoin (AC), a crucial external energy storage molecule in fermentive bacteria. The interconversion between (3R)-AC and meso-2,3-BD or (3S)-AC and (2S,3S)-2,3-BD is catalyzed by meso-2,3-butanediol dehydrogenase (meso-2,3-BDH) 761081
