| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
We determined the crystal structure of two L-amino acid oxidases with high substrate specificity, L-glutamate oxidase (LGOX) from Streptomyces sp. X-119-6 and L-lysine α-oxidase (LysOX) from Trichoderma viride. and we analyzed the molecular mechanism of the substrate recognition of L-amino acid oxidases with high substrate specificity. X-ray crystal structure of LGOX revealed that Arg305 in the active site is the key residue involved in substrate recognition. We created 19 mutant enzymes by substitution of Arg305. Some of them, R305D-LGOX, R305L-LGOX, and R305H-LGOX lost oxidase activity for L-Glu, and exhibited a new oxidase activity for L-Arg, L-His, and L-Tyr, respectively. These progress and findings will provide a great contribution to further industrial application of these enzymes.
