NMR Spectroscopic Characterization of the Sialyltransferase CstII from Campylobacter jejuni: Histidine 188 Is the General Base
Patrick H. W. Chan, Luke L. Lairson, Ho Jun Lee, Warren W. Wakarchuk, Natalie C. J. Strynadka, Stephen G. Withers and Lawrence P. McIntoshBiochemistry2009 48 (47), 11220-11230NMR Spectroscopic Characterization of the Sialyltransferase CstII from Campylobacter jejuni: Histidine 188 Is the General Base
Patrick H. W. Chan, Luke L. Lairson, Ho Jun Lee, Warren W. Wakarchuk, Natalie C. J. Strynadka, Stephen G. Withers and Lawrence P. McIntoshBiochemistry2009 48 (47), 11220-11230Cell surface glycans are often terminated by sialic acid, which is incorporated onto sugar acceptors by sialyltransferases. The crystal structure of the GT family 42 Campylobacter jejuni α-2,3/2,8-sialyltransferase (CstII) provides key insights into the ...

Kinetic and Mechanistic Analysis of Trypanosoma cruzi Trans-Sialidase Reveals a Classical Ping-Pong Mechanism with Acid/Base Catalysis
Iben Damager, Sabrina Buchini, Maria F. Amaya, Alejandro Buschiazzo, Pedro Alzari, Alberto C. Frasch, Andrew Watts and Stephen G. WithersBiochemistry2008 47 (11), 3507-3512Kinetic and Mechanistic Analysis of Trypanosoma cruzi Trans-Sialidase Reveals a Classical Ping-Pong Mechanism with Acid/Base Catalysis
Iben Damager, Sabrina Buchini, Maria F. Amaya, Alejandro Buschiazzo, Pedro Alzari, Alberto C. Frasch, Andrew Watts and Stephen G. WithersBiochemistry2008 47 (11), 3507-3512The trans-sialidase from Trypanosoma cruzi catalyzes the transfer of a sialic acid moiety from sialylated donor substrates to the terminal galactose moiety of lactose and lactoside acceptors to yield α-(2,3)-sialyllactose or its derivatives with net ...

Recruitment of Both Uniform and Differential Binding Energy in Enzymatic Catalysis: Xylanases from Families 10 and 11
Jacqueline Wicki, Johann Schloegl, Chris A. Tarling, and Stephen G. WithersBiochemistry2007 46 (23), 6996-7005Recruitment of Both Uniform and Differential Binding Energy in Enzymatic Catalysis: Xylanases from Families 10 and 11
Jacqueline Wicki, Johann Schloegl, Chris A. Tarling, and Stephen G. WithersBiochemistry2007 46 (23), 6996-7005The contributions of enzymesubstrate hydrogen-binding interactions to catalysis by two different families of xylanases were evaluated through kinetic studies with two representative wild-type enzymes, Cellulomonas fimi xylanase (Cex) and Bacillus ...

Identification of Asp174 and Asp175 as the Key Catalytic Residues of Human O-GlcNAcase by Functional Analysis of Site-Directed Mutants
Naniye Çetinbaş, Matthew S. Macauley, Keith A. Stubbs, Robert Drapala, and David J. VocadloBiochemistry2006 45 (11), 3835-3844Identification of Asp174 and Asp175 as the Key Catalytic Residues of Human O-GlcNAcase by Functional Analysis of Site-Directed Mutants
Naniye Çetinbaş, Matthew S. Macauley, Keith A. Stubbs, Robert Drapala, and David J. VocadloBiochemistry2006 45 (11), 3835-3844O-GlcNAcase is a family 84 -N-acetylglucosaminidase catalyzing the hydrolytic cleavage of -O-linked 2-acetamido-2-deoxy-d-glycopyranose (O-GlcNAc) from serine and threonine residues of posttranslationally modified proteins. O-GlcNAcases use a double-...

Structures of Purine 2‘-Deoxyribosyltransferase, Substrate Complexes, and the Ribosylated Enzyme Intermediate at 2.0 Å Resolution,
Ruchi Anand, Pierre Alexandre Kaminski, and Steven E. EalickBiochemistry2004 43 (9), 2384-2393Structures of Purine 2‘-Deoxyribosyltransferase, Substrate Complexes, and the Ribosylated Enzyme Intermediate at 2.0 Å Resolution,
Ruchi Anand, Pierre Alexandre Kaminski, and Steven E. EalickBiochemistry2004 43 (9), 2384-2393The structure of class I N-deoxyribosyltransferase from Lactobacillus helveticus was determined by X-ray crystallography. Unlike class II N-deoxyribosyltransferases, which accept either purine or pyrimidine deoxynucleosides, class I enzymes are specific ...
