Arthrobacter sp. K-1 β-fructofuranosidase (ArFFase), a glycoside hydrolase family 68 enzyme, catalyzes the hydrolysis and transfructosylation of sucrose. ArFFase is useful for producing a sweetener, lactosucrose (4(G)-β-D-galactosylsucrose). The primary structure of ArFFase is homologous to those of levansucrases, although ArFFase catalyzes mostly hydrolysis when incubated with sucrose alone, even at high concentration. Here, we determined the crystal structure of ArFFase in unliganded form and complexed with fructose. ArFFase consisted of a five-bladed β-propeller fold as observed in levansucrases. The structure of ArFFase was most similar to that of Gluconacetobacter diazotrophicus levansucrase (GdLev). The structure of the catalytic cleft of ArFFase was also highly homologous to that of GdLev. However, two amino acid residues, Tyr232 and Pro442 in ArFFase, were not conserved between them. A tunnel observed at the bottom of the catalytic cleft of ArFFase may serve as a water drain or its reservoir.
节杆菌 K-1β-呋喃果糖苷酶(ArFFase)是一种糖苷水解酶家族 68 酶,可催化蔗糖的水解和转果糖基化反应。ArFFase 可用于生产甜味剂乳蔗糖(4(G)-β-D-半乳糖基蔗糖)。尽管 ArFFase 在单独孵育蔗糖时主要催化水解,即使在高浓度下也是如此,但它的一级结构与蔗糖酶相似。在这里,我们确定了无配体形式和与果糖复合的 ArFFase 的晶体结构。ArFFase 由观察到的五叶β-螺旋桨折叠组成,如蔗糖酶中所见。ArFFase 的结构与固氮醋酸杆菌蔗糖酶(GdLev)的结构最为相似。ArFFase 的催化裂缝结构也与 GdLev 的结构高度同源。然而,ArFFase 中的两个氨基酸残基 Tyr232 和 Pro442 之间没有保守性。在 ArFFase 的催化裂缝底部观察到的一个隧道可能作为一个排水或其储水库。
