Thioesterase activity accounts for the majority of the activities in the hotdog-fold superfamily. The structure and mechanism of catalysis for many hotdog enzymes have been elucidated by X-ray crystallography and kinetics to probe the specific substrate usage and cellular functions. However, structures of hotdog thioesterases in complex with substrate analogs reported to date utilize ligands that comprise either truncations of the substrate or include additional atoms to prevent the hydrolysis. Herein, we present the synthesis of an isosteric and isoelectronic substrate analog, benzoyl-OdCoA, and the X-ray crystal structure of a complex of the analog with P. aeruginosa hotdog thioesterase, PA1618 (at 1.72 Å resolution). The complex is compared to that of the “imperfect” substrate analog phenacyl-CoA, refined to a resolution of 1.62 Å. Kinetic and structural results are consistent with Glu64 as the catalytic residue and with Gln49 in stabilization of the transition state. Structural comparison of the two ligand-bound structures revealed a crucial ordered water molecule coordinated in the active site of the benzoyl-OdCoA structure which is not present in the phenacyl-CoA bound structure. This suggests a general base mechanism of catalysis where Glu64 activates the coordinated water nucleophile. Together, our findings reveal the importance of a more indistinguishable substrate analog to determine proper substrate binding and catalytic mechanism.
