摘要
Catalytic mechanism of diisopropyl fluorophosphatase from Loligo vulgaris is investigated using the hybrid density functional theory method B3LYP with a large quantum chemical model of the active site. For the first step, both Asp229 and an activated water molecule are capable of proceeding in-line attack on the substrate with the associated barriers 14.8 and 6.0 kcal/mol, respectively. Asp229 plays a dual role during the two reaction processes as either a nucleophile or a general base to activate H_2O. From the phosphoenzyme intermediate with hexa-coordinated Ca~(2+), the uncoordinated Glu21 activated an additional H_2O to attack the carbon center of Asp229 and make the phosphate release. Asn120 and Asn175 promote the elimination of the fluoride via donating strong hydrogen bonds. Coordination variation of calcium plays important role of the enzymatic reaction to occur. The calculated detailed reaction mechanisms will promote the structure-based protein engineering to modify hydrolysis rates and substrate specific.
