The roles of active site residues His54, Phe94, Lys183, and His220 in the Streptomyces rubiginosus D-xylose isomerase were probed by site-directed mutagenesis. The kinetic properties and crystal structures of the mutant enzymes were characterized. The pH dependence of diethylpyrocarbonate modification of His54 suggests that His54 does not catalyze ring-opening as a general acid. His54 appears to be involved in anomeric selection and stabilization of the acyclic transition state by hydrogen bonding. Phe94 stabilizes the acyclic-extended transition state directly by hydrophobic interactions and/or indirectly by interactions with Trp137 and Phe26. Lys183 and His220 mutants have little or no activity and the structures of these mutants with D-xylose reveal cyclic alpha-D-xylopyranose. Lys183 functions structurally by maintaining the position of Pro187 and Glu186 and catalytically by interacting with acyclic-extended sugars. His220 provides structure for the M2-metal binding site with properties which are necessary for extension and isomerization of the substrate. A second M2 metal binding site (M2') is observed at a relatively lower occupancy when substrate is added consistent with the hypothesis that the metal moves as the hydride is shifted on the extended substrate.
