Substrate specificities

Endoglucanases (EC 3.2.1.4). Mainly the hydrolysis of soluble beta 1,4 glucans.


Kinetics and Mechanism

The enzymes act with inversion of anomeric configuration to generate the alpha-D glucoside as product. Based upon the structure of the Humicola insolens endoglucanase V (now known as Cel45)[1][2] it was concluded that Asp121 acted as the catalytic acid (implied by its hydrogen bonding to the glycosidic oxygen of a ligand in the +1 subsite) and that the most likely catalytic base would be Asp10, appropriately positioned "below" the sugar plane. As with many inverting enzymes the base assignment is less secure than that of the acid.


Catalytic Residues

"Classical" GH45 enzymes likely use twin carboxylates corresponding to Asp10 and 121 of the Humicola insolens endoglucanase V.


Three-dimensional structures
