Several three dimensional structures of family GH32 enzymes have been solved so far. The first crystal structure was reported for the bacterial &beta;-fructosidase from ''Thermotoga maritima'' <cite>5</cite>. Further crystal structures of enzymes and their substrate-complexes have been solved for two plant enzymes (cell wall invertase <cite>6</cite> and fructan 1-exohydrolase <cite>7</cite> ), as well as one fungal exo-inulinase <cite>8</cite>. The core of the structure consists of a five-bladed &beta;-propeller appended to a &beta;-sandwich, consisting of two sheets of six &beta;-strands. Although sequence similarity is low within the sandwich modules, all family GH32 members contain such a module.

All three enzyme families display a five bladed &beta;-propeller fold.

Substrate specificities

Glycoside hydrolase family GH32 contains one of the earliest described enzyme activities, namely that of 'inverting' sucrose, from which is derived the name of 'invertase' (EC 3.2.1.26), discovered in the second half of the 19th century [1]. Besides the 'historical' invertases, this family also contains enzymes that hydrolyze fructose containing polysaccharides such as inulinases (EC 3.2.1.7) and exo-inulinases (EC 3.2.1.80), levanases (EC 3.2.1.65) and β-2,6-fructan 6-levanbiohydrolases(EC 3.2.1.64), fructan β-(2,1)-fructosidase/1-exohydrolase (EC 3.2.1.153) or fructan β-(2,6)-fructosidase/6-exohydrolases (EC 3.2.1.154), as well as enzymes displaying transglycosylating activities such as sucrose:sucrose 1-fructosyltransferases (EC 2.4.1.99), fructan:fructan 1-fructosyltransferase (EC 2.4.1.100), sucrose:fructan 6-fructosyltransferase (EC 2.4.1.10), fructan:fructan 6G-fructosyltransferase (EC 2.4.1.243) and levan fructosyltransferases (EC 2.4.1.-).

Kinetics and Mechanism

Family GH32 enzymes are retaining enzymes, as first shown by Koshland and Stein by performing the reaction in 18O-labeled water and determining the 18O content of the products [2]. The transfructosylation activity (a type of transglycosylation activity) observed for invertase in this reaction indicated that the enzyme operates with a molecular mechanism leading to overall retention of the anomeric configuration [2].

Catalytic Residues

The two residues, responsible for the catalytic reaction in family GH32 enzymes, have first been identified in yeast invertase as an aspartate located close to the N-terminus acting as the catalytic nucleophile [3] and a glutamate acting as the general acid/base [4]. However, endo-inulinases contain a glutamate as nucleophile [5, 6, 6, 7, 8, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29, 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35]. Further crystal structures of enzymes and their substrate-complexes have been solved for two plant enzymes (cell wall invertase [36] and fructan 1-exohydrolase [37] ), as well as one fungal exo-inulinase [38]. The core of the structure consists of a five-bladed β-propeller appended to a β-sandwich, consisting of two sheets of six β-strands. Although sequence similarity is low within the sandwich modules, all family GH32 members contain such a module. A structural relationship of the catalytic core module exists to family GH68 (also member of Clan GH-J) and family GH43, as predicted by detailed sequence analysis [39]. All three enzyme families display a five bladed β-propeller fold.
