Water-assisted reaction mechanism of monozinc beta-lactamases
Matteo Dal Peraro et al. J Am Chem Soc. 2004.
Abstract
Hybrid Car-Parrinello QM/MM calculations are used to investigate the reaction mechanism of hydrolysis of a common beta-lactam substrate (cefotaxime) by the monozinc beta-lactamase from Bacillus cereus (BcII). The calculations suggest a fundamental role for an active site water in the catalytic mechanism. This water molecule binds the zinc ion in the first step of the reaction, expanding the zinc coordination number and providing a proton donor adequately oriented for the second step. The free energy barriers of the two reaction steps are similar and consistent with the available experimental data. The conserved hydrogen bond network in the active site, defined by Asp120, Cys221, and His263, not only contributes to orient the nucleophile (as already proposed), but it also guides the second catalytic water molecule to the zinc ion after the substrate is bound. The hydrolysis reaction in water has a relatively high free energy barrier, which is consistent with the stability of cefotaxime in water solution. The modeled Michaelis complexes for other substrates are also characterized by the presence of an ordered water molecule in the same position, suggesting that this mechanism might be general for the hydrolysis of different beta-lactam substrates.
