N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine amidase activity

PMID:16103125[1]

ECO:0000314

F

PlyL is an endolysin enzyme with 2 separate domains, an N-terminal catalytic domain, and a C-terminal cell wall binding domain. This annotation is for the N-terminal domain of PlyL.

Peptidoglycan from B. subtilis was subjected to both the full-length PlyL and the N-terminal domain only. In supplemental figure 1, (see link: http://www.jbc.org/content/suppl/2005/08/16/M502723200.DC1/Suppdata.pdf) the amount of 2,4-dinitrophenyl-alanine is shown to increase sharply, indicating that PlyL is an N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine amidase. Additionally, the figure shows that alanine is increased even more when the N-terminal domain alone is used, compared to the full-length protein.

As additional support that PlyL is an amidase, figure 2 compares the crystal structure of PlyL to other known amidase enzymes.

Figure 4 shows a time course assay where the purified endolysin (PlyL) was able to lyse 4 different bacillus species cultures within 400 seconds. In 4a, the lysing capabilities of the full-length version of PlyL are shown. In 4b, the lysing capabilities of the N-terminal portion only are shown. The N-terminal domain by itself is more effective at cleaving Bacillus species than the entirety of PlyL.

F

Zinc binding and catalysis is highly conserved between Bacillus phages. There is a high sequence alignment between PlyLBa02 and PlyG as shown by Figure 1 which is a sequence alignment diagram from ClustalX. PlyG and PlyLBA02 have a 93% identity in the enzymatic domain and a 60% identity in the C-terminal domain. Because of this similarity, we can come to conclusion the PlylBa02 is also involved in N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine amidase activity.

In Figure 4, an assay of lytic enzyme activity of PlyL and its mutant, Ply21 was conducted on the cell wall of five bacterial hosts. The mutant Ply21 is described as the full-length protein of PlyL with the removal of the C-terminal domain involved in cell wall binding, leaving behind only the presence of the N-terminal catalytic domain. In Panel B, the lysing abilities of Ply21 are shown, and the removal of the C-terminal cell wall binding domain did not have a significant effect on the lysing of the bacterial hosts. However, the N-terminal catalytic domain displayed a higher percent absorbance over time as compared to Panel A, (which displayed the lysing abilities of the full length protein). Furthermore, B. subtilis (yellow-orange line) displayed the highest lysing ability than all of the bacterial hosts, with the absorbance rate being higher in the graph of Panel B than Panel A. This concludes that the mutant PlyL 21, also known as the N-terminal catalytic domain of the full length PlyL protein with the C-terminal binding domain removed, is most efficient in cytolysis and that the removal of the C-terminal cell wall binding domain does not inhibit nor improve the lysing ability of PlyL on the cell wall of bacterial hosts.

Figure 5 shows that catalytic activity of N-terminal domain binding to the C-terminal domain in which it shows the C-terminal domain to catalyze the cell wall component. This proves that the N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanine amidase activity is being used.
