Subunits

Subunits Comment Organism
homodimer the enzyme comprises two distinct domains, an N-terminal catalytic (beta/alpha)8 barrel linked to a C-terminal antifreeze protein-like (AFPL) domain. Loss of the AFPL domain destabilizes the dimeric form of the enzyme nd renders it inactive. The AFPL domain plays a critical role for both the catalytic function and quaternary structure stability of N-acetylneuraminic acid synthase. The enzyme mutant G272Term lacking the AFPL domain is partly monomeric Neisseria meningitidis

additional information
-
the wild-type apoenzyme has a higher melting temperature of 42.6°C compared to the mutant G272Term apoenzyme with 36.5°C. Unlike the wild-type enzyme, the melting temperature of mutant G272Term in the presence of Mn2+ remains consistent and is not influenced by the addition of different ligand combinations. The melting temperature of wild-type NmeNANAS increases slightly in the presence of Mn2+ Neisseria meningitidis

General Information

General Information Comment Organism
malfunction a truncated variant of the enzyme lacking the C-terminal AFPL domain is soluble and catalytically inactive, loss of the AFPL domain destabilizes the dimeric form of the enzyme. The AFPL domain plays a critical role for both the catalytic function and quaternary structure stability of N-acetylneuraminic acid synthase. phosphoenolpyruvate has a major effect on the thermal stability of the enzyme and loss of the AFPL domain in mutant G272Term eliminates this property Neisseria meningitidis
