GDP-mannose hydrolase (GDPMH) catalyzes the hydrolysis of GDP-α-d-sugars by nucleophilic substitution with inversion at the anomeric C1 atom of the sugar, with general base catalysis by H124. Three lines of evidence indicate a mechanism with dissociative character. First, in the 1.3 Å X-ray structure of the GDPMH−Mg2+−GDP·Tris+complex [Gabelli, S. B., et al. (2004)Structure 12, 927−935], the GDP leaving group interacts with five catalytic components: R37, Y103, R52, R65, and the essential Mg2+. As determined by the effects of site-specific mutants onkcat, these components contribute factors of 24-, 100-, 309-, 24-, and ≥105-fold, respectively, to catalysis. Both R37 and Y103 bind the β-phosphate of GDP and are only 5.0 Å apart. Accordingly, the R37Q/Y103F double mutant exhibits partially additive effects of the two single mutants onkcat, indicating cooperativity of R37 and Y103 in promoting catalysis, and antagonistic effects onKm. Second, the conserved residue, D22, is positioned to accept a hydrogen bond from the C2−OH group of the sugar undergoing substitution at C1, as was shown by modeling an α-d-mannosyl group into the sugar binding site. The D22A and D22N mutations decreasedkcatby factors of 102.1and 102.6, respectively, for the hydrolysis of GDP-α-d-mannose, and showed smaller effects onKm, suggesting that the D22 anion stabilizes a cationic oxocarbenium transition state. Third, the fluorinated substrate, GDP-2F-α-d-mannose, for which a cationic oxocarbenium transition state would be destabilized by electron withdrawal, exhibited a 16-fold decrease inkcatand a smaller, 2.5-fold increase inKm. The D22A and D22N mutations further decreased thekcatwith GDP-2F-α-d-mannose to values similar to those found with GDP-α-d-mannose, anddecreasedtheKmof the fluorinated substrate. The choice of histidine as the general base over glutamate, the preferred base in other Nudix enzymes, is not due to the greater basicity of histidine, since the pKaof E124 in the active complex (7.7) exceeded that of H124 (6.7), and the H124E mutation showed a 102.2-folddecreaseinkcatand a 4.0-fold increase inKmat pH 9.3. Similarly, the catalytic triad detected in the X-ray structure (H124- - -Y127- - -P120) is unnecessary for orienting H124, since the Y127F mutation had only 2-fold effects onkcatandKmwith either H124 or E124 as the general base. Hence, a neutral histidine rather than an anionic glutamate may be necessary to preserve electroneutrality in the active complex.
