The Structure and Mechanism of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis Cyclodityrosine Synthetase

The Mycobacterium tuberculosis enzyme Rv2275 catalyzes the formation of cyclo(L-Tyr-L-Tyr) using two molecules of Tyr-tRNA(Tyr) as substrates. The three-dimensional structure of Rv2275 was determined to 2.0 Å resolution, revealing that Rv2275 is structurally related to the class Ic aminoacyl-tRNA-sy...

description The Mycobacterium tuberculosis enzyme Rv2275 catalyzes the formation of cyclo(L-Tyr-L-Tyr) using two molecules of Tyr-tRNA(Tyr) as substrates. The three-dimensional structure of Rv2275 was determined to 2.0 Å resolution, revealing that Rv2275 is structurally related to the class Ic aminoacyl-tRNA-synthetase family of enzymes. Mutagenesis and radioactive labeling suggests a covalent intermediate in which L-tyrosine is transferred from Tyr-tRNA(Tyr) to an active site serine (S88) by transesterification and with E233 serving as a critical base catalyzing dipeptide bond formation.
