| Abstract | Previous mechanistic and crystallographic studies on two C–C hydrolase enzymes, Escherichia coli MhpC and Burkholderia xenovorans BphD, support a general base mechanism for C–C hydrolytic cleavage, rather than the nucleophilic mechanism expected for a serine hydrolase. The role of the active site serine residue could be to form a hydrogen bond with a gem-diolate intermediate, or to protonate such an intermediate. Hydrolase BphD is able to catalyse the hydrolysis of p-nitrophenyl benzoate ester substrates, which has enabled an investigation of these mechanisms using a Hammett analysis, and comparative studies upon five serine esterases and lipases from the α/β-hydrolase family. A reaction parameter (ρ) value of +0.98 was measured for BphD-catalysed ester hydrolysis, implying a build-up of negative charge in the transition state, consistent with a general base mechanism. Values of +0.31–0.61 were measured for other serine esterases and lipases, for the same series of esterase substrates. Pre-steady state kinetic studies of ester hydrolysis, using p-nitrophenyl acetate as the substrate, revealed a single step kinetic mechanism for BphD-catalysed ester hydrolysis, with no burst kinetics. A general base mechanism for BphD-catalysed ester hydrolysis is proposed, in which Ser-112 stabilises an oxyanion intermediate through hydrogen bonding, and assists the rotation of this oxyanion intermediate via proton transfer, a novel reaction mechanism for the serine catalytic triad. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
