Water works. Bacillus subtilis esterase BS2 is a promiscuous esterase that shows amidase activity. This amidase activity was shown to depend on a hydrogen-bond network with the substrate amide hydrogen (indicated by arrow). When this stabilising hydrogen bond network was removed by a point mutation, the amide activity was significantly lowered in comparison with the esterase activity.(Figure Presented)
