Crystal Structure of E. coli MTA/AdoHcy NucleosidaseCrystal Structure of E. coli MTA/AdoHcy Nucleosidase
Structural highlights
1jys is a 2 chain structure with sequence from Escherichia coli. Full crystallographic information is available from OCA. For a guided tour on the structure components use FirstGlance.
MTNN_ECOLI Catalyzes the irreversible cleavage of the glycosidic bond in both 5'-methylthioadenosine (MTA) and S-adenosylhomocysteine (SAH/AdoHcy) to adenine and the corresponding thioribose, 5'-methylthioribose and S-ribosylhomocysteine, respectively. Can also use 5'-isobutylthioadenosine, 5'-n-butylthioadenosine, S-adenosyl-D-homocysteine, decarboxylated adenosylhomocysteine, deaminated adenosylhomocysteine and S-2-aza-adenosylhomocysteine as substrates.[HAMAP-Rule:MF_01684]
