Abstract
The crystal structure of Marme_2490 in a ligand-free form was determined and found that Marme_2490 is formed by an (α/α)6-barrel, which is commonly observed in AGE superfamily enzymes. Despite diverse reaction specificities, the orientations of residues involved in catalysis and substrate binding by Marme_2490 were similar to those in both AKI (Salmonella enterica AKI) and epimerase (Rhodothermus marinus CE). The Marme_2490 structure suggested that the α7→α8 and α11→α12 loops of the catalytic domain participated in the formation of an open substrate-binding site to provide sufficient space to bind 4-OH d-mannose derivatives.
