Structural comparison of Ntn‐hydrolases
Open accessAbstract
The Ntn‐hydrolases (N‐terminal nucleophile) are a superfamily of diverse enzymes that has recently been characterized. All of the proteins in this family are activated autocatalytically; they contain an N‐terminally located catalytic nucleophile, and they cleave an amide bond. In the present study, the structures of four enzymes of this superfamily are compared in more detail. Although the amino acid sequence homology is almost completely absent, the enzymes share a similar αββα‐core structure. The central β‐sheets in the core were found to have different packing angles, ranging from 5 to 35°. In the Ntn‐hydrolases under study, eight totally conserved secondary structure units were found (region C). Five of them were observed to contain the greatest number of conserved and functionally important residues and are therefore crucial for the structure and function of Ntn‐hydrolases. Two additional regions, consisting of secondary structure units (regions A and B), were found to be in structurally similar locations, but in different orders in the polypeptide chain. The catalytic machinery is located in the structures in a similar manner, and thus the catalytic mechanisms of all of the enzymes are probably similar. However, the substrate binding and the oxyanion hole differed partially.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
