摘要

Although aspartate residue D263 of Rhodospirillum rubrum Rubisco is close to the active sitenand invariant in all reported Rubiscos, its possible functional and structural roles in Rubisco activity havennot been investigated. We have mutagenised D263 to several selected amino acids (asparagine, alanine,nserine, glutamate, and glutamine) to probe possible roles in facilitating proton movements within thenactive site and maintaining structural positioning of key active-site groups. The mutants have beenncharacterized by kinetic methods and by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) to examine the effectsnof the substitutions on the stability of the folded state. We show that D263 is essential for maintainingneffective levels of catalysis with the mutations reducing carboxylation variously by up to 100-fold butnhaving less than 10% effect on the carboxylase/oxygenase specificity of the catalytic reaction. Removingnthe charge of the residue 263 side chain significantly strengthens binding of the activating (carbamylating)nCO2 molecule. In contrast, a charge on the 263 site has only a small influence on binding of the positivelyncharged Mg2+ ion, suggesting that the local protein structure provides different shielding of the formalncharges on the Mg2+ ion and the ε-lysine group of K191. Interestingly, introduction of an internal cavityn(D263S and D263A) and insertion of an extra -CH2- group (D263E and D263Q) have opposite effectsnon catalysis, the former relatively small and the latter much larger, suggesting that the extra side-chainngroup induces a specific structural distortion that inhibits formation of the transition state. As the DSCnresults show that the mutations only slightly increase the kinetic stability of the folded state, we concludenthat the rate-limiting (activated) step of unfolding involves substantial unfolding of the structure but notnin the region of site 263. In summary, interaction of D263 with H287 of a largely electrostatic naturenappears critical for maintaining correct positioning of catalytic groups in the active site. The conservationnof D263 can thus be accounted for by its contribution to the maintenance of a finely tuned structure innthis region abutting the active site.
