E180A | site-directed mutagenesis, the mutant shows moderately reduced activity compared to wild-type | Arabidopsis thaliana |
E182A | site-directed mutagenesis, the mutation does not significantly reduce the stability of AtRidA. The mutant shows moderately reduced activity compared to wild-type | Arabidopsis thaliana |
K136A | site-directed mutagenesis, the mutation does not significantly reduce the stability of AtRidA. Mutant K136A severely impacts the assembly, which underscores the indispensable role of the K136-E182 salt bridge as well as the inter-subunit hydrogen bonds in maintaining the oligomeric state. The mutant shows highly reduced activity compared to wild-type | Arabidopsis thaliana |
K136R | site-directed mutagenesis, the mutation does not significantly reduce the stability of AtRidA. The mutant shows highly reduced activity compared to wild-type | Arabidopsis thaliana |
R165A | site-directed mutagenesis, the mutation shows 98% reduced activity compared to wild-type. The mutant shows moderately reduced activity compared to wild-type | Arabidopsis thaliana |
S166A | site-directed mutagenesis, the mutation does not significantly reduce the stability of AtRidA. The mutant shows moderately reduced activity compared to wild-type | Arabidopsis thaliana |
S80A | site-directed mutagenesis, the mutation does not significantly reduce the stability of AtRidA. The mutant shows moderately reduced activity compared to wild-type | Arabidopsis thaliana |
S92A | site-directed mutagenesis, the mutation does reduce the stability of AtRidA and the mutant protein is prone to precipitation | Arabidopsis thaliana |

homotrimer | RidA forms the trimeric, barrel-like quaternary structure and intersubunit cavities, and resembles most RidA family members. RidA exists as a homotrimer not only in crystals, but also in solution. There is a central cavity in the barrel-like trimeric structure, whose height is about A. The inner side of the barrel is formed by the beta-sheet from each monomer, and the bottom is sealed by the Q169-K178 loop. The alpha-helices pack on the outside of the barrel, while the beta-strands are approximately parallel to the 3fold crystallographic axis. The buried surface between the neighboring monomers is 1306.2 A2 | Arabidopsis thaliana |

physiological function | RidA is an important enzyme for the prevention of toxic side products. By deaminating the toxic enamine/imine intermediates, it prevents the inactivation of many functionally important pyridoxal 5'-phosphate (PLP)-containing enzymes in plants such as branched-chain aminotransferase BCAT (IlvE). By converting the reactive enamine/imines to harmless 2-oxoacids, RidA preempts damage to BCAT3 and ensures that the isoleucine biosynthesis can proceed | Arabidopsis thaliana |
