Senescence marker protein 30 functions as gluconolactonase in L-ascorbic acid biosynthesis, and its knockout mice are prone to scurvy.
Kondo Y., Inai Y., Sato Y., Handa S., Kubo S., Shimokado K., Goto S., Nishikimi M., Maruyama N., Ishigami A.
We originally identified senescence marker protein 30 (SMP30) as a distinctive protein whose expression decreases in an androgen-independent manner with aging. Here, we report its sequence homology found in two kinds of bacterial gluconolactonases (GNLs) by using the blast search. Then, through a ... >> More
We originally identified senescence marker protein 30 (SMP30) as a distinctive protein whose expression decreases in an androgen-independent manner with aging. Here, we report its sequence homology found in two kinds of bacterial gluconolactonases (GNLs) by using the blast search. Then, through a biochemical study, we identify SMP30 as the lactone-hydrolyzing enzyme GNL of animal species. SMP30 purified from the rat liver had lactonase activity toward various aldonolactones, such as d- and l-glucono-delta-lactone, d- and l-gulono-gamma-lactone, and d- and l-galactono-gamma-lactone, with a requirement for Zn(2+) or Mn(2+) as a cofactor. Furthermore, in SMP30 knockout mice, no GNL activity was detectable in the liver. Thus, we conclude that SMP30 is a unique GNL in the liver. The lactonase reaction with l-gulono-gamma-lactone is the penultimate step in l-ascorbic acid (AA) biosynthesis, and the essential role of SMP30 in this synthetic process was verified here by a nutritional study using SMP30 knockout mice. These knockout mice (n = 6), fed a vitamin C-deficient diet, did not thrive; i.e., they displayed symptoms of scurvy such as bone fracture and rachitic rosary and then died by 135 days after the start of receiving the deficient diet. The AA levels in their livers and kidneys at the time of death were <1.6% of those in WT control mice. In addition, by using the SMP30 knockout mouse, we demonstrate that the alternative pathway of AA synthesis involving d-glucurono-gamma-lactone operates in vivo, although its flux is fairly small. << Less

The object of this paper is to provide an enzymatic means to attain faster swelling or shrinking kinetics of polyelectrolyte gels that undergo volume phase transition as an immobilized enzyme reaction sets in. For this, we studied the coimmobilization of gluconolactonase (GL) with glucose oxidase (GOD). A gel used was in the shape of a small cylinder (several hundred micrometers in diameter) and composed of a lightly cross-linked copolymer of N-isopropylacrylamide and acrylic acid. GL was isolated from Aspergillus niger and purified about 100-fold. It was found that in a substrate solution containing glucose, the gel with the coimmobilized GL and GOD shrinks very rapidly. The shrinking rate was identical to that of the enzyme-free gel that undergoes a shrinking transition in response to a sudden pH change of the outer medium from 7 to 5. This indicates the rate-limiting step in the shrinking process to be diffusion of the networks, but not the enzyme reaction. In the gel with singly immobilized GOD, a very slow shrinking was observed because the process is governed by the enzyme reaction. These results were discussed in full in connection with an enzymatically induced decrease in pH within and in the vicinity of the gel phase. As a result, it has become apparent that the faster shrinking kinetics in the coimmobilized enzyme system is attained by the GL-catalyzed hydrolysis of D-glucono-delta-lactone resulting from the oxidation of glucose with GOD. << Less

A novel carbohydrate:acceptor oxidoreductase from Microdochium nivale.
Xu F., Golightly E.J., Fuglsang C.C., Schneider P., Duke K.R., Lam L., Christensen S., Brown K.M., Joergensen C.T., Brown S.H.
A Microdochium nivale carbohydrate:acceptor oxidoreductase was purified, cloned, heterologously expressed, and characterized. The gene encoding the protein showed one intron, and the ORF showed a sequence with low homology (< or = 25% identity or 65% similarity) to other known flavin-containing ca ... >> More
A Microdochium nivale carbohydrate:acceptor oxidoreductase was purified, cloned, heterologously expressed, and characterized. The gene encoding the protein showed one intron, and the ORF showed a sequence with low homology (< or = 25% identity or 65% similarity) to other known flavin-containing carbohydrate oxidases. The maturation of the protein required the cleavage of a tetrameric propeptide in addition to an 18 amino-acid signal peptide. The enzyme was found to have a relative molecular mass of 55 000 Da, an isoelectric point of 9, and one FAD per protein. It could oxidize mono-, oligo-, or polymeric saccharides, and transfer their electrons to O2 or other acceptors. When D-glucose served as electron-donating substrate, an activity of 2 s(-1) was observed at pH 5.5 and 23 degrees C. Among various oligosaccharides, the enzyme preferred tetrameric dextrins, indicating a favorable interaction of four linked glucose units with the substrate pocket. The unique structure and ability of oxidizing oligo/polymeric saccharides suggest a promising prospect of this enzyme for various industrial/medicinal applications. << Less

Human senescence marker protein 30 (SMP30), which functions enzymatically as a lactonase, hydrolyzes various carbohydrate lactones. The penultimate step in vitamin-C biosynthesis is catalyzed by this enzyme in nonprimate mammals. It has also been implicated as an organophosphate hydrolase, with the ability to hydrolyze diisopropyl phosphofluoridate and other nerve agents. SMP30 was originally identified as an aging marker protein, whose expression decreased androgen independently in aging cells. SMP30 is also referred to as regucalcin and has been suggested to have functions in calcium homeostasis. The crystal structure of the human enzyme has been solved from X-ray diffraction data collected to a resolution of 1.4 A. The protein has a 6-bladed beta-propeller fold, and it contains a single metal ion. Crystal structures have been solved with the metal site bound with either a Ca(2+) or a Zn(2+) atom. The catalytic role of the metal ion has been confirmed by mutagenesis of the metal coordinating residues. Kinetic studies using the substrate gluconolactone showed a k(cat) preference of divalent cations in the order Zn(2+) > Mn(2+) > Ca(2+) > Mg(2+). Notably, the Ca(2+) had a significantly higher value of K(d) compared to those of the other metal ions tested (566, 82, 7, and 0.6 mum for Ca(2+), Mg(2+), Zn(2+), and Mn(2+), respectively), suggesting that the Ca(2+)-bound form may be physiologically relevant for stressed cells with an elevated free calcium level. << Less

The senescence marker protein-30 (SMP30), which is also called regucalcin, exhibits gluconolactonase (GNL) activity. Biochemical and biological analyses revealed that SMP30/GNL catalyzes formation of the γ-lactone-ring of L-gulonate in the ascorbic acid biosynthesis pathway. The molecular basis of the γ-lactone formation, however, remains elusive due to the lack of structural information on SMP30/GNL in complex with its substrate. Here, we report the crystal structures of mouse SMP30/GNL and its complex with xylitol, a substrate analogue, and those with 1,5-anhydro-D-glucitol and D-glucose, product analogues. Comparison of the crystal structure of mouse SMP30/GNL with other related enzymes has revealed unique characteristics of mouse SMP30/GNL. First, the substrate-binding pocket of mouse SMP30/GNL is designed to specifically recognize monosaccharide molecules. The divalent metal ion in the active site and polar residues lining the substrate-binding cavity interact with hydroxyl groups of substrate/product analogues. Second, in mouse SMP30/GNL, a lid loop covering the substrate-binding cavity seems to hamper the binding of L-gulonate in an extended (or all-trans) conformation; L-gulonate seems to bind to the active site in a folded conformation. In contrast, the substrate-binding cavities of the other related enzymes are open to the solvent and do not have a cover. This structural feature of mouse SMP30/GNL seems to facilitate the γ-lactone-ring formation. << Less
