  • Hydrolase
    • Catalyze hydrolysis reaction
    • Addition of the hydrogen and hydroxyl ions of water

, illustrate that 2gfh is a hydrolase. Profunc searches (Figure 17) on 2gfh also

show that it possesses hydrolase activity. The highest score for Gene Ontology (Figure 17) states it used for metabolism and possesses

phosphoglycolate phosphatase activity. Hydrolyase is an enzyme which catalyzes hydrolysis reaction (Figure 18), which is the addition of the

hydrogen and hydroxyl ions of water to a molecule with its consequent splitting into two or more simpler molecules. Hydrolase is the systematic

name for any enzyme of EC class 3.

The MSA for the query sequence and the other 35 sequences shows several conserved motifs. The 1st conserved motif

consists of almost invariant region of aspartic acid (D), only the 33rd protein (gi: |45552117|)

showing gap. The 2nd motif shows conserved and invariant of leucine (L), threonine (T), asparagine (N) and glycine (G). The

3rd motif shows 2 invariant amino acid residues of lysine (K), proline (P), valine (V), glycine (G), aspartic acid (D) and

isoleucine (I). This correlates with the study done by Maliekal et al and strongly suggested that the query protein is a phosphatase.


MSA of the query protein Neu5Ac phosphatase with 35 others proteins. Only the 60th – 70th and the

210th -300th amino acid sequence were shown to illustrate the conserved and invariant regions. The 3 boxed-up sequences

were either conserved or invariant regions.

E. coli HADs hydrolyze a wide range of phosphorylated metabolites, including carbohydrates, nucleotides, organic acids, and coenzymes.

Studies have shown that the most common substrates in metabolism such as glycolysis and pentose phosphate pathway (Figure 18). These enzymes

were fructose-1-phosphate, glucose-6-phosphate, mannose-6-phosphate, 2-deoxyglucose-6-phosphate, fructose-6- phosphate, ribose-5-phosphate, and

erythrose- 4-phosphate 13.

Function in Human

haloacid dehalogenase-like hydrolase domain

(Found in OMIM)

Neu5Ac-9-PHOSPHATE PHOSPHATASE HALOACID DEHALOGENASE-LIKE HYDROLASE DOMAIN-CONTAINING PROTEIN-4; HDHD4 Gene map locus 20p11


Neu5Ac-9-phosphate phosphatase (Neu5Ac-9-Pase; EC 3.1.3.29) dephosphorylates Neu5Ac-9-phosphate to form N-acetylneuraminate (Neu5Ac), the main form of sialic acid in vertebrates that has important roles in protein-protein and cell-cell recognition.


CLONING

Maliekal et al. (2006) purified Neu5Ac-9-Pase from rat liver and isolated the phosphatase activity. Using SDS-PAGE analysis and tandem mass spectrometry, they identified a haloacid dehalogenase-like hydrolase domain containing-4 (HDHD4) protein. Purified recombinant human HDHD4 catalyzed the dephosphorylation of Neu5Ac-9-phosphate with a catalytic efficiency more than 2 orders of magnitude higher than for any other substrate tested. The 248-amino acid human HDHD4 protein has 3 motifs found in phosphatases of the haloacid dehalogenase (HAD) family: the first with 2 extremely conserved aspartates, the second comprising a conserved serine or threonine, and the third comprising a conserved lysine and 2 conserved aspartates.


GENE STRUCTURE

Maliekal et al. (2006) determined that the human HDHD4 gene contains 2 exons.


GENE FUNCTION

Maliekal et al. (2006) determined that the phosphatase activity of human Neu5Ac-9-Pase protein was dependent on the presence of Mg(2+) and was inhibited by vanadate and Ca(2+), which is characteristic of members of the HAD family of phosphatases.

From FASTA most likely function is N-acetylneuraminic acid phosphatase.

The haloalkanoate dehalogenase superfamily (HADSF) is one of the largest and most ubiquitous enzyme families identified to date, with over 3,000 members in organisms ranging from bacteria to humans. Remarkable diversity of chemistry and function has emerged through evolution of the HAD catalytic scaffold. Despite the name, the dehalogenases, which catalyze carbon group transfer, represent a minute fraction of the family. All other known catalytic activities are directed at phosphoryl transfer. Numerous proteins from the HADSF are found in each organism (29 in E. coli and 58 in humans, for example) where they perform a diverse collection of novel physiological functions in primary and secondary metabolism, membrane transport, signal transduction, and nucleic acid repair. http://biophysics.bumc.bu.edu/faculty/allen/allenpage/had.htm

Haloacid dehalogenases (E.C.3.8.1.2) are members of the haloacid dehalogenase superfamily, which also contains ATPases, phosphatases and epoxide hydrolases. They catalyse the conversion of α-halo-carboxylic acids to the corresponding hydroxyalkanoic acid by nucleophilic attack on the α-carbon by a conserved aspartic acid residue to form an ester intermediate, which is then further hydrolysed by a water molecule. There are three subtypes of haloacid dehalogenase based on substrate specificity; those that can use both enantiomers as substrates, those that act only on the L enantiomer and those that act only on the D enantiomer.
