KSI (ketosteroid isomerase) catalyses an allylic isomerization reaction at a diffusion-controlled rate. A hydrogen bond network, Asp99···Water504···Tyr14···Tyr55···Tyr30, connects two critical catalytic residues, Tyr14 and Asp99, with Tyr30, Tyr55 and a water molecule in the highly apolar active site of the Pseudomonas putida KSI. In order to characterize the interactions among these amino acids in the hydrogen bond network of KSI, double-mutant cycle analysis was performed, and the crystal structure of each mutant protein within the cycle was determined respectively to interpret the coupling energy. The ΔΔGo values of Y14F/D99L (Tyr14→Phe/Asp99→Leu) KSI, 25.5 kJ/mol for catalysis and 28.9 kJ/mol for stability, were smaller than the sums (i.e. 29.7 kJ/mol for catalysis and 34.3 kJ/mol for stability) for single mutant KSIs respectively, indicating that the effect of the Y14F/D99L mutation was partially additive for both catalysis and stability. The partially additive effect of the Y14F/D99L mutation suggests that Tyr14 and Asp99 should interact positively for the stabilization of the transition state during the catalysis. The crystal structure of Y14F/D99L KSI indicated that the Y14F/D99L mutation increased the hydrophobic interaction while disrupting the hydrogen bond network. The ΔΔGo values of both Y30F/D99L and Y55F/D99L KSIs for the catalysis and stability were larger than the sum of single mutants, suggesting that either Tyr30 and Asp99 or Tyr55 and Asp99 should interact negatively for the catalysis and stability. These synergistic effects of both Y30F/D99L and Y55F/D99L mutations resulted from the disruption of the hydrogen bond network. The synergistic effect of the Y55F/D99L mutation was larger than that of the Y30F/D99L mutation, since the former mutation impaired the proper positioning of a critical catalytic residue, Tyr14, involved in the catalysis of KSI. The present study can provide insight into interpreting the coupling energy measured by double-mutant cycle analysis based on the crystal structures of the wild-type and mutant proteins.

To compare the structural properties of oxalamide and thiooxalamide groups in the formation of hydrogen bonds suitable for supramolecular assemblies a series of retropeptides was studied. Some of them, having oxalamide bridges, are gelators of organic solvents and water. However, retropeptides with oxygen replaced by the sp 2 sulfur have not exhibited such properties. The crystal structures of the two title compounds are homostructural, i.e. they have similar packing arrangements. The monothio compound crystallizes in the orthorhombic space group P212121 with two molecules in the asymmetric unit arranged in a hydrogen-bond network with an approximate 41 axis along the crystallographic b axis. However, the dithio and dioxo analogues crystallize in the tetragonal space group P41 with similar packing patterns and hydrogen-bonding systems arranged in agreement with a crystallographic 41 axis. Thus, these two analogues are isostructural having closely related hydrogen-bonding patterns in spite of the different size and polarity of oxygen and sulfur which serve as the proton acceptors.
