Ligand specificities

The two family 29 CBMs (CBM29-1 and CBM29-2) are located in the same Pyromyces equi protein defined as noncatalytic protein 1 or NCP1 [1]. There are no other members of this family in the CAZy database. NCP1 binds to glucomannans, galactomannans, β-glucans that contain β1,4-linkages, and insoluble forms of mannan and cellulose. The two individual CBM29s in NCP1 bind to all these polysaccharides but with affinities (e.g. glucomannan KA of 37%-1 for CBM29-1 and 228%-1 for CBM29-2) substantially lower than the full length protein (glucomannan KA of 11990%-1), providing a classical example of avidity effects. Ligand binding is enthalpically driven with changes in entropy having a negative impact on affinity, typical of CBMs that bind to soluble ligands. The targeting of soluble polysacchride chains with an endo-mode of binding (individual CBM29s bind to mannose based polysaccharides with a coverage of one protein molecule for 8-9 sugars [2]) classify these proteins as type B CBMs.

CBM29s comprise ~150 amino acids. The crystal structure of the C-terminal CBM29 module (CBM29-2) from P. equi NCP1 was determined in complex with cellohexaose and mannohexaose [2]. The structure presents a classic β-jelly-roll, with five β-strands forming each of the two faces typical of many other CBM families. [3]. The concave surface of CBM29-2 comprises the ligand binding cleft optimized to bind single glycan chains consistent with its type B designation. In complexes with cellohexaose or mannohexaose the hexasaccharides occupy the binding cleft. Three aromatic residues that line this cleft forms a classic hydrophobic platform observed for many CBMs. All three aromatic amino acids interact with the α-face of the glucosyl or mannosyl moieties of residues 6, 4, and 2, respectively (Figure 1). Discrete recognition of the O3 and O6 hydroxyls builds upon this template, conferring further specificity toward either glucose or mannose-based ligands. Interaction with the 2-hydroxyl, whose chirality defines whether the pyranoside is glucose or mannose, is flexible, thus allowing the relaxed recognition of both gluco- and manno-configured ligands. The mechanism by which CBM16 modules recognize manno- and gluco-configured ligands [4] strongly resembles the structural basis by which CBM29-2 binds to cellohexaose and mannohexaose.

Mutagenesis studies of CBM29-2 reinforce the major role played by the aromatic residues in the binding cleft in ligand recognition, and clarify the importance of the amino acids that are in hydrogen bonding distance with the two ligands [5]. One of the mutants generated, Glu to Arg substitution, altered ligand specificity; the mutant bound to gluco- but not manno-configured ligands. Isothermal titration calorimetry in combination with gel filtration and X-ray crystallography showed that two molecules of the mutant CBM bound to a single cellohexaose molecule to form a trimolecular sandwich complex in solution. Each of the pyranose rings of cellohexaose was interacting with one of the mutant proteins (Figure 2), explaining how the axial O2 of mannose prevented ligand binding [6]. A similar trimolecular complex in crystal, comprising two molecules of a CBM63 expansin that sandwiches a cellohexaose molecule, has also been described [7].

Functionalities

The single non-catalytic protein NCP1 contains three N-terminal dockerin domains (Glu22 to Arg147) and two CBM29 modules extending form Arg172 to Val327 (CBM29-1) and Lys332 to Asn478 (CBM29-2). The dockerin domains enable NCP1 to be incorporated into the P. equi cellulosome, a multienzyme plant cell wall degrading complex [1, 8]. It was proposed that the plasticity in ligand recognition enabled NCP1 to make a significant contribution to the attachment of the fungal cellulosome to the plant cell wall [1].

Family Firsts

First Identified
The pair of CBM29s were first observed in the P. equi cellulosomal protein NCP1 by [1]
