Abstract
The present disclosure provides novel polypeptides with 3-buten-2-ol dehydratase activity, polypeptides with catalytic activity in the conversion of 3-methyl-3-buten-2-ol to isoprene, and crystal structure data for one of such polypeptides. Methods of making and using the polypeptides and their related crystal structure data are also provided.

-20. (canceled)
A polypeptide comprising an amino acid sequence with at least 90% amino acid sequence homology to SEQ ID NO:
- 1, wherein said amino acid sequence comprises one to five mutations at the following X positions of SEQ ID NO:
- 1:
- R1-95X96R97-98X99R100-122X123R124-186X187R188-203X204R205-211X212R213-272X273X274X275R276-323X324R325-327X328R329-359X360R361-365X366R367-381X382R383-398, wherein:
- X96 is mutated to a different amino acid selected from L and equivalent amino acids;
- X99 is mutated to a different amino acid selected from L and equivalent amino acids;
- X123 is mutated to a different amino acid selected from I and equivalent amino acids;
- X187 is mutated to a different amino acid selected from M and equivalent amino acids;
- X204 is mutated to a different amino acid selected from I and equivalent amino acids;
- X212 is mutated to a different amino acid selected from F, Y, and equivalent amino acids;
- X273 is mutated to a different amino acid selected from C and equivalent amino acids;
- X274 is mutated to a different amino acid selected from F and equivalent amino acids;
- X275 is mutated to a different amino acid selected from I and equivalent amino acids;
- X324 is mutated to a different amino acid selected from L, E, and equivalent amino acids;
- X328 is mutated to a different amino acid selected from V and equivalent amino acids;
- X360 is mutated to a different amino acid selected from Y and equivalent amino acids;
- X366 is mutated to a different amino acid selected from V, C, G, and equivalent amino acids;
- X382 is mutated to a different amino acid selected from W and equivalent amino acids;
- and each R is the same as the corresponding amino acid in SEQ ID NO:
- 1, with or without an N-terminal signal peptide, and with or without an N-terminal methionine.
