Functional roles in S-adenosyl-l-methionine binding and catalysis for active site residues of the THIOSTREPTON (cas 1393-48-2) resistance methyltransferase

Resistance to the antibiotic THIOSTREPTON (cas 1393-48-2), in producing Streptomycetes, is conferred by the S-adenosyl-l-methionine (SAM)-dependent SPOUT methyltransferase Tsr. For this and related enzymes, the roles of active site amino acids have been inadequately described. Herein, we have probed SAM interactions in the Tsr active site by investigating the catalytic activity and the thermodynamics of SAM binding by site-directed Tsr mutants. Two arginine residues were demonstrated to be critical for binding, one of which appears to participate in the catalytic reaction. Additionally, evidence consistent with the involvement of an asparagine in the structural organization of the SAM binding site is presented.
