Summary edit

Description
English: Duplication events and changes in specificity and activity in evolution of S. cerevisiae MalS enzymes.

The hydrolytic activity of all seven present-day alleles of Mal and Ima enzymes as well as key ancestral (anc) versions of these enzymes was measured for different α-glucosides. The width of the colored bands corresponds to kcat/Km of the enzyme for a specific substrate. Specific values can be found in Table S2. Note that in the case of present-day Ima5, we were not able to obtain active purified protein. Here, the width of the colored (open) bands represents relative enzyme activity in crude extracts derived from a yeast strain overexpressing IMA5 compared to an ima5 deletion mutant. While these values are a proxy for the relative activity of Ima5 towards each substrate, they can therefore not be directly compared to the other parts of the figure. For ancMalS and ancMal-Ima, activity is shown for the variant with the highest confidence (279G for ancMalS and 279A for ancMal-Ima). Activity for all variants can be found in Table S2.
