Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In the hydration mechanism of nitrile hydratase (NHase), the substrate nitrile molecule, coordinated to the non-heme iron is attacked nucleophilically by the O-atom of the cysteine-sulfenate ligand, to form a novel cyclic intermediate. To uncover the reaction mechanism followed by the cyclic intermediate by serial femtosecond crystallography, we performed the following researches. βTyr37, which was suggested to be involved in the proton-transfer to the N-atom of the cyclic intermediate based on the hybrid quantum mechanics/molecular mechanics (QM/MM) method, was substituted by Phe, Ile or Ala. All mutant NHases showed significant catalytic activity. And, the crystal structure of the βY37K mutant was basically unchanged except for the substituted residue. We identified the reaction intermediate species of NHase by using time-resolved microspectroscopy. We determined the crystallization condition which is enough small for SFX analyses.
