beta-galacturonidase (YesZ) from Bacillus Subtilis 168
yesZ The enzyme acts on the terminal end of side chains of Rhamnogalacturonan I Pectin, releasing the free galactose. This gene has been isolated from the bacterium Bacillus subtilis subtilis 168. The enzyme yesZ has beta-galactosidase (beta-galacturonidase) activity, cleaving (1→4)-β-D-galactans to produce single galactose molecules from RG I Pectin.
Usage and Biology Pectin is a component of the primary cell wall of plants. As galactose can be metabolized by the human body and by animals, it is an alternative to the usual target of nutrition/energy boosts in biotechnology, glucose.

yesZThe Beta-Galactosidase yesZ is globular and has three aspects that are important to its function. It contains a zinc ion binding site at the C residues 153, 155, and 158 in yellow. The putative nucleophile and acid base cleavage sites are at the E residues 155 and 296 in red. The active site where substrate binding occurs is through the amino acid residue sequence ETSPSYAASL from residues 296- 305. | |
yesZ Enzyme Activity | The kinetic parameters fo the hydrolysis of pNPGal by wild type YesZ Kcat = 81.4 ± 4 s-1, and Km= 3.0 ± 0.2 mM, and Kcat/Km= 27 ± 2 mM -1 s-1. Figure A describes the time dependent inactivation of the YesZ enzyme using DNP2FGal. The time dependent inactivation observed as a single exponential decay to a non-zero value when DNP2FGal was incubated with the enzyme. Studies of inactivation kinetics were performed by pre-incubating 100 microliters of the enzyme at 37 oC with DNP2FGal at a range of concentrations in a total volume of 140 microliters."> |
