EC 2.3.2.39 altemicidin L-isoleucyltransferase
Accepted name: D-glutamyltransferase
Reaction: (1) D-glutamine + D-glutamate = NH3 + γ-D-glutamyl-D-glutamate
(2) L(or D)-glutamine + (γ-D-glutamyl)n-[peptide] = ammonia + (γ-D-glutamyl)n+1-[peptide]
Other name(s): D-glutamyl transpeptidase; D-γ-glutamyl transpeptidase
Systematic name: L(or D)-glutamine
Comments: The enzyme catalyses two reactions. The first is the transfer of a glutamyl residue from L- or D-glutamine to D-glutamate via a γ linkage, forming γ-glutamyl-D-glutamate, and the second is the transfer of additional glutamyl residues to the peptide, extending the polypeptide chain.

Systematic name: (5-L-glutamyl)-peptide:amino-acid 5-glutamyltransferase
Comments: The mammlian enzyme is part of the cell antioxidant defense mechanism. It initiates extracellular glutathione (GSH) breakdown, provides cells with a local cysteine supply and contributes to maintain intracelular GSH levels. The protein also has EC 3.4.19.13 (glutathione hydrolase) activity [3-4]. The enzyme consists of two chains that are created by the proteolytic cleavage of a single precursor polypeptide. The N-terminal L-threonine of the C-terminal subunit functions as the active site for both the cleavage and the hydrolysis reactions [3-4].

Comments: The enzyme from Staphylococcus aureus catalyses the transfer of glycine from a charged tRNA to MurNAc-L-Ala-D-isoglutaminyl-L-Lys-D-Ala-D-Ala-diphosphoundecaprenyl-GlcNAc (lipid II), attaching it to the N6 of the L-Lys at position 3 of the pentapeptide.

Four additional Gly residues are subsequently attached by EC 2.3.2.17 (N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanyl-D-glutamyl-L-lysyl-(N6-glycyl)-D-alanyl-D-alanine-diphosphoundecaprenyl-N-acetylglucosamine:glycine glycyltransferase) and EC 2.3.2.18 (N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanyl-D-glutamyl-L-lysyl-(N6-triglycine)-D-alanyl-D-alanine-diphosphoundecaprenyl-N-acetylglucosamine:glycine glycyltransferase).

This is the second step in the synthesis of the pentaglycine interpeptide bridge that is used by Staphylococcus aureus for the crosslinking of different glycan strands to each other.

Comments: This Staphylococcus aureus enzyme catalyses the successive transfer of two Gly moieties from charged tRNAs to MurNAc-L-Ala-D-isoglutaminyl-L-Lys-(N6-tri-Gly)-D-Ala-D-Ala-diphosphoundecaprenyl-GlcNAc, attaching them to the three Gly molecules that were previously attached to the N6 of the L-Lys at position 3 of the pentapeptide by EC 2.3.2.16 (lipid II:glycine glycyltransferase) and EC 2.3.2.17 (N-acetylmuramoyl-L-alanyl-D-glutamyl-L-lysyl-(N6-glycyl)-D-alanyl-D-alanine-diphosphoundecaprenyl-N-acetylglucosamine:glycine glycyltransferase). This is the last step in the synthesis of the pentaglycine interpeptide bridge that is used in this organism for the crosslinking of different glycan strands to each other.

Systematic name: [E1 ubiquitin-activating enzyme]-S-ubiquitinyl-L-cysteine:L-lysine ubiquitinyl transferase ([E3 ubiquitin transferase]-independent)
Comments: The enzyme transfers a single ubiquitin directly from an ubiquitinated E1 ubiquitin-activating enzyme to itself, and on to a lysine residue of the acceptor protein without involvement of E3 ubiquitin transferases (cf. EC 2.3.2.26, EC 2.3.2.27). It forms a labile ubiquitin adduct in the presence of E1, ubiquitin, and Mg2+-ATP and catalyses the conjugation of ubiquitin to protein substrates, independently of E3. This transfer has only been observed with small proteins. In vitro a transfer to small acceptors (e.g. L-lysine, N-acetyl-L-lysine methyl ester) has been observed [1].

Systematic name: [E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme]-S-ubiquitinyl-L-cysteine:[acceptor protein] ubiquitin transferase (isopeptide bond-forming; RING-type)
Comments: RING E3 ubiquitin transferases serve as mediators bringing the ubiquitin-charged E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme (EC 2.3.2.23) and an acceptor protein together to enable the direct transfer of ubiquitin through the formation of an isopeptide bond between the C-terminal glycine residue of ubiquitin and the ε-amino group of an L-lysine residue of the acceptor protein. Unlike EC 2.3.2.26, HECT-type E3 ubiquitin transferase, the RING-E3 domain does not form a catalytic thioester intermediate with ubiquitin. Many members of the RING-type E3 ubiquitin transferase family are not able to bind a substrate directly, and form a complex with a cullin scaffold protein and a substrate recognition module (the complexes are named CRL for Cullin-RING-Ligase). In these complexes, the RING-type E3 ubiquitin transferase provides an additional function, mediating the transfer of a NEDD8 protein from a dedicated E2 carrier to the cullin protein (see EC 2.3.2.32, cullin-RING-type E3 NEDD8 transferase). cf. EC 2.3.2.31, RBR-type E3 ubiquitin transferase.

RING = Really Interesting New Gene
Systematic name: [E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme]-S-ubiquitinyl-L-cysteine:acceptor protein ubiquitin transferase (isopeptide bond-forming; RBR-type)
Comments: RBR-type E3 ubiquitin transferases have two RING fingers separated by an internal motif (IBR, for In Between RING). The enzyme interacts with the CRL (Cullin-RING ubiquitin Ligase) complexes formed by certain RING-type E3 ubiquitin transferase (see EC 2.3.2.27), which include a neddylated cullin scaffold protein and a substrate recognition module. The RING1 domain binds an EC 2.3.2.23, E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme, and transfers the ubiquitin that is bound to it to an internal cysteine residue in the RING2 domain, followed by the transfer of the ubiquitin from RING2 to the substrate [4]. Once the substrate has been ubiquitylated by the RBR-type ligase, it can be ubiqutylated further using ubiquitin carried directly on E2 enzymes, in a reaction catalysed by EC 2.3.2.27. Activity of the RBR-type enzyme is dependent on neddylation of the cullin protein in the CRL complex [2,4]. cf. EC 2.3.2.26, HECT-type E3 ubiquitin transferase, EC 2.3.2.27, RING-type E3 ubiquitin transferase, and EC 2.3.2.32, cullin-RING-type E3 NEDD8 transferase.

Reaction: S-[NEDD8-protein]-yl-[E2 NEDD8-conjugating enzyme]-L-cysteine + [cullin]-L-lysine = [E2 NEDD8-conjugating enzyme]-L-cysteine + N6-[NEDD8-protein]-yl-[cullin]-L-lysine

Systematic name: S-[NEDD8-protein]-yl-[E2 NEDD8-conjugating enzyme]-L-cysteine:cullin [NEDD8-protein] transferase (isopeptide bond-forming; RING-type)
Comments: Some RING-type E3 ubiquitin transferase (EC 2.3.2.27) are not able to bind a substrate protein directly. Instead, they form a complex with a cullin scaffold protein and a substrate recognition module, which is named CRL for Cullin-RING-Ligase. The cullin protein needs to be activated by the ubiquitin-like protein NEDD8 in a process known as neddylation. The transfer of NEDD8 from a NEDD8-specific E2 enzyme onto the cullin protein is a secondary function of the RING-type E3 ubiquitin transferase in the CRL complex. The process requires auxiliary factors that belong to the DCN1 (defective in cullin neddylation 1) family.

Comments: RCR-type E3 ubiquitin transferases is a class of RING-type E3 ubiquitin transferase (see EC 2.3.2.27) that mediates ubiquitylation of acceptor proteins via an internal cysteine residue. The RING1 domain binds an EC 2.3.2.23, E2 ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme, and transfers the ubiquitin that is bound to it to an internal cysteine residue on a mediator loop of the RCR-type ligase. The ubiquitin may be transferred to a second internal cysteine before the transfer of the ubiquitin from the RCR-type ligase to the substrate.

Systematic name: [E1 NEDD8-activating enzyme]-S-[NEDD8 protein]-yl-L-cysteine:[E2 NEDD8-conjugating enzyme] [NEDD8-protein]-yl transferase
Comments: Some RING-type E3 ubiquitin transferases (EC 2.3.2.27) are not able to bind a substrate protein directly. Instead, they form complexes with a cullin scaffold protein and a substrate recognition module, which are known as CRL (Cullin-RING-Ligase) complexes. The cullin protein needs to be activated by the ubiquitin-like protein NEDD8 in a process known as neddylation. Like ubiquitin, the NEDD8 protein ends with two glycine residues. EC 6.2.1.64, E1 NEDD8-activating enzyme, activates NEDD8 in an ATP-dependent reaction by forming a high-energy thioester intermediate between NEDD8 and one of its cysteine residues. The activated NEDD8 is subsequently transferred to a cysteine residue of an E2 NEDD8-conjugating enzyme, and is eventually conjugated to a lysine residue of specific substrates in the presence of the appropriate E3 transferase (EC 2.3.2.32, cullin-RING-type E3 NEDD8 transferase).
