AVR2
OverviewOverview
BACKGROUND: The chicken avidin gene family consists of avidin and several, avidin related genes (AVRs). Of these gene products, avidin is the best, characterized and is known for its extremely high affinity for D-biotin, a, property that is utilized in numerous modern life science applications., Recently, the AVR genes have been expressed as recombinant proteins, which, have shown different biotin-binding properties as compared to avidin., RESULTS: In the present study, we have employed multiple biochemical, methods to better understand the structure-function relationship of AVR, proteins focusing on AVR2. Firstly, we have solved the high-resolution, crystal structure of AVR2 in complex with a bound ligand, D-biotin. The, AVR2 structure reveals an overall fold similar to the previously, ...
