Kinetic analysis of two mutations within Pseudomonas
aeruginosa exoenzyme S (ExoS) showed that a E379D mutation
inhibited expression of ADP-ribosyltransferase activity but had little
effect on the expression of NAD glycohydrolase activity while a E381D mutation inhibited expression of both activities. These data identify ExoS as a biglutamic acid ADP-ribosyltransferase, where E381 is the
catalytic residue and E379 contributes to the transfer of ADP-ribose to
the target protein.
