Galactaro delta-lactone isomerase: lactone isomerization by a member of the amidohydrolase superfamily.
Bouvier J.T., Groninger-Poe F.P., Vetting M., Almo S.C., Gerlt J.A.
Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain C58 can utilize d-galacturonate as a sole source of carbon via a pathway in which the first step is oxidation of d-galacturonate to D-galactaro-1,5-lactone. We have identified a novel enzyme, D-galactarolactone isomerase (GLI), that catalyzes the isomerizaton of D- ... >> More
Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain C58 can utilize d-galacturonate as a sole source of carbon via a pathway in which the first step is oxidation of d-galacturonate to D-galactaro-1,5-lactone. We have identified a novel enzyme, D-galactarolactone isomerase (GLI), that catalyzes the isomerizaton of D-galactaro-1,5-lactone to D-galactaro-1,4-lactone. GLI, a member of the functionally diverse amidohydrolase superfamily, is a homologue of LigI that catalyzes the hydrolysis of 2-pyrone-4,6-dicarboxylate in lignin degradation. The ability of GLI to catalyze lactone isomerization instead of hydrolysis can be explained by the absence of the general basic catalysis used by 2-pyrone-4,6-dicarboxylate lactonase. << Less

Characterization of a novel Agrobacterium tumefaciens galactarolactone cycloisomerase enzyme for direct conversion of D-galactarolactone to 3-deoxy-2-keto-L-threo-hexarate.
Andberg M., Maaheimo H., Boer H., Penttila M., Koivula A., Richard P.
Microorganisms use different pathways for D-galacturonate catabolism. In the known microbial oxidative pathway, D-galacturonate is oxidized to D-galactarolactone, the lactone hydrolyzed to galactarate, which is further converted to 3-deoxy-2-keto-hexarate and α-ketoglutarate.

Microorganisms use different pathways for D-galacturonate catabolism. In the known microbial oxidative pathway, D-galacturonate is oxidized to D-galactarolactone, the lactone hydrolyzed to galactarate, which is further converted to 3-deoxy-2-keto-hexarate and α-ketoglutarate. We have shown recently that Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain C58 contains an uronate dehydrogenase (At Udh) that oxidizes D-galacturonic acid to D-galactarolactone. Here we report identification of a novel enzyme from the same A. tumefaciens strain, which we named Galactarolactone cycloisomerase (At Gci) (E.C. 5.5.1.-), for the direct conversion of the D-galactarolactone to 3-deoxy-2-keto-hexarate. The At Gci enzyme is 378 amino acids long and belongs to the mandelate racemase subgroup in the enolase superfamily. At Gci was heterologously expressed in Escherichia coli, and the purified enzyme was found to exist as an octameric form. It is active both on D-galactarolactone and D-glucarolactone, but does not work on the corresponding linear hexaric acid forms. The details of the reaction mechanism were further studied by NMR and optical rotation demonstrating that the reaction product of At Gci from D-galactaro-1,4-lactone and D-glucaro-1,4-lactone conversion is in both cases the L-threo form of 3-deoxy-2-keto-hexarate. << Less
