摘要

The 3-D structure of the peptidyl-tRNA hydrolase from the archaea Sulfolobus solfataricus has been solved at 1.8 A resolution.Homologues of this enzyme are found in archaea and eucarya.Bacteria display a different type of peptidyl-tRNA hydrolase that is also encountered in eucarya.In solution,the S.solfataricus hydrolase behaves as a dimer.In agreement,the crystalline structure of this enzyme indicates the formation of a dimer.Each protomer is made of a mixed five-stranded beta-sheet surrounded by two groups of two alpha-helices.The dimer interface is mainly formed by van der Waals interactions between hydrophobic residues belonging to the two N-terminal alpha1 helices contributed by two protomers.Site-directed mutagenesis experiments were designed for probing the basis of specificity of the archaeal hydrolase.Among the strictly conserved residues within the archaeal/eucaryal peptidyl-tRNA hydrolase family,three residues,K18,D86,and T90,appear of utmost importance for activity.They are located in the N-part of alphal and in the beta3-beta4 loop.K18 and D86,which form a salt bridge,might play a role in the catalysis thanks to their acid and basic functions,whereas the OH group of T90 could act as a nucleophile.These observations clearly distinguish the active site of the archaeal/eucaryal hydrolases from that of the bacterial/eucaryal ones,where a histidine is believed to serve as the catalytic base.
